Answer
Azadeh,

I think you should call and speak to the admissions director of your school. Admissions directors are very familar with scholarships, grants, and government loans. In Canada, there is something like FASA money down in the states.

I also found a job that you might consider in Toranto. Vancouver also has some jobs open. This would be for the Arts Institute, a sister school for us down in the states. We just got sold to Goldman and Sachs, and I would believe working for the Arts Institute, completing a DBA or MBA online with Argosy U would help you a great deal. Look over this listing, and let me know if this helps get you into Canada for income, job and scholarship.
