A SOP is required for admissions in nearly all the universities in Canada. However, some courses may or may not need it. Statement of purpose is not required for all the courses in University of Windsor. A good SOP acts as a life saver for your applications as it saves you from rejection.

While applying for a Masters of Engineering at Windsor, a statement of purpose is not required, but while applying for a Master of Science course you will need to submit a good one to make an impression.

The meaning of SOP is stating your purpose for the application.

SOP helps the Universities understand your need and priorities or area of focus.
It is also helpful in changing the majors if required.

It is mandatory for some courses. It is very important to remember that a SOP will be needed when you apply for your study visa as usually a Canadian Visa process does not need any interview which is not the case in the US.
