<p>I know this has probably been discussed before, but realistically what universities/colleges are worth going to in the US if you are paying possibly 5-10 times more for yearly tuition? This is not meant to be rhetorical or negative. With my limited knowledge, I would only assume Harvard/Princeton/Yale/MIT/Stanford.</p>
<p>There is no academic reason for a Canadian to attend an American university outside of the top 15 universities or top 5 LAC’s, using the USNews rankings. You can get just as good or better an education at McGill, Queen’s, UofT or UBC. </p>
<p>If you are a recruited athlete on scholarship or from a wealthy family, that’s different.</p>
