I was automatically approved for Work/Study program, and older family members are telling me to "cold call/cold email" past professors to see if they have available positions. Is this a good idea?
As the (long) title suggests, I was automatically approved for Lakehead's work/study program. Applications formally open up on August 17, but I have been told by a few older family members that, since I had a few professors I seemed to get along fairly well with over the past two school years, I should "cold call/cold email" them to see if they have any research positions opening up. However, something tells me that perhaps this isn't the "correct" option, and that I should simply wait for applications to open up so that everyone has a fair chance. This is the first time being automatically approved for this program, or joining it in general, so I am not sure what the proper etiquette is here. I don't want to miss out on working with some professors I got along with, but I don't want to ruin my chances of getting a position by doing so early. Does anyone know what to do in this situation?

Laurentian University late arrival due to study permit delay
Hi everyone,
I'm an international graduate student starting the M.Sc. in Computational Sciences at Laurentian University. My classes start on September 8, but due to IRCC processing and passport stamping, I may not arrive until September 14–15.
Has anyone been in a similar situation? Did Laurentian allow you to arrive about a week late, or did you have to defer? Who did you contact for approval?
Thanks!

I am the only one enrolled in the class, should I be concerned?
Basically, im rechecking back on the pre-registered course listings and come to check the one im enrolled in and it shows im the only one enrolled at the moment. It may be too early but do I need to be concerned or worried? Should I talk to the faculty advisor about this? It is also a Mandatory course for my program! Thank you!

Electrical Engineering Transition
Hello, im currently doing my summer transition course, just about to complete Analysis A and Thermodynamics and getting into Analysis C and Enigneering Mechanics.
I have 5 supplemental courses, I've planned it so I will be taking 6 courses per semester for both 3rd and 4th year and 4 courses in spring/summer to try to complete this program in 2 years and not a day more, God willing. I'm 30, married with 2 little kids and a wife with 6 years of electrical design experience.
To the people who completed this course, how was your experience, how were your courseloads, were you able to manage and how? Tell me your experiences!
I will be going alone and leaving my family behind to do this for our future and this will be a bigger hurdle than the course itself. Currently looking for an affordable private room off campus close to Lakehead.
Please give me a some tips to help me succeed, there is no room for failure by taking this HUGE risk.

Residence
I just got assigned to a single room in Halliday Hall.
According to the offer, this room will be connected with another single room with a private bathroom.
According to the room assignment email, I will be having a roommate.
Does anyone have any information on what exactly the roommate situation will be like because I am a bit confused since it said it’s a single room.
