More than 130,000 international students choose Canada as their preferred choice of study in the world.

Why?

Superior Education System: The high standards of the Canadian educational system and outstanding quality of Canadian schools are acknowledged globally. Canadian students consistently rank among the best in the world on international tests of reading, science and mathematics. Proclaimed international leaders in government, business and academic circles have studied language skills and/or academic subjects in Canada.

Low Tuition Fees: Comparison studies with such countries as the USA, UK, Australia, and New Zealand show foreign students can save considerably on their tuition by studying in Canada; in fact, fees in US public universities were almost 1.3 higher than fees for Bachelor Degrees in Canada and more than double to study at a US private university.
