Sometimes filling out forms and questionnaires can pay off. Just ask recent Toronto university graduate Zalak Patel. “I won! This is so incredible” Patel responded when learning her name had been picked out from a draw she entered at a recent university fair in Toronto. Patel dropped by the U.S. Consulate General Toronto’s table at the fair and ended up being the lucky winner of a Kindle e-book reader donated by EducationUSA. “I love reading,” she said. And that’s a good thing because Patel is hoping to go on to graduate school and is considering options in the U.S. For more information on the endless possibilities for top-notch educations south of the border visit EducationUSA Canada.
