Hello, A degree generally is always better in all respects as it gives you higher PR points, better salaries & better future. But, a diploma in Dental hygiene is a better option for a BDS or related study background oriented students as that is their core passion & would add to the further specialization of Indian dental education to adjust in a foreign country.

Hello, The MS programs are highly competitive in Canada. Your profile seems strong however admissions will depend on your overall application package including LORs and SOP. You may look at Lakehead university, University of Windsor or University of Fraser Valley etc.
Also, MS programs could be either research based or coursework. Research based are selective and would require a superviser to accept you first. You have to decide what is best for you and apply accordingly. Begin researching on the Masters courses, visit university websites, write to them and start the application process a year ahead of the intakes.

Hello, Your percentage is just average & IELTS too at just par with the requirements. You may look at Thompson River University or Lakehead University for a program in Business & Skill development leading to MBA in 2nd year. Alternatively, you may look for a college like Niagara etc for a Post Grad level diploma where you may get the admission as well Visa for the program.

Hello, your grades are good, you may obtain a scholarship from the university. Check for educational loan options from banks.
Note: They won't grant you loans for Diploma courses, also scholarships are less likely for a scholarship.

Hello Karan,
Complete your 10+2 with very good grades. If you have completed your 12th boards there is no need of pursuing a diploma, I will rather advice you to apply for bachelor's program. Credit transfers could be tricky and depends from university to university . Communicate with them before applying and follow the timelines strictly.

So technically there is no difference in either terms & individual college may have different name of the same level of diploma.
