Road to University of Saskatchewan, Canada:
I have started my M.Sc. in Civil Engineering at U of Saskatchewan on January 05, 2017. From my experience I have prepared an article for new students specially who are coming to U of SK. PBSCU helped me in many ways, and I am really thankful to all members of this group. I want to participate in this free help mission to express my gratitude.I think this guideline will help them all.
