<p>Fees are already low compared to US, 1/5 to 1/10.Not much scholarships offered to foreigners,I m afraid.</p>
<p>I think that there really is no point going to a second tier US university over a Canadian university as they are roughly the same level (academics, prestige, etc), and as a Canadian, its a lot easier/cheaper to get into Canadian universities. Of course, if you get accepted into a first-tier US school, thats a different story.</p>
<p>Like everybody is saying you should go for a top Canadian University than a lower U.S. one. Unless you get into Harvard, Yale, Stanford, etc. Tops schools like that yes you should go to the U.S. for the experience but if you are not considering a top school in the U.S. staying in Canada at UofT for example is a good choice.</p>
<p>Hmm... so it's pretty hard on the pocket it seems..... There seems to be so much confusion regarding the canadian universities as the don't vouch for foreigners as their US counterparts.... well ignorance isn't bliss after all</p>
<p>I'm not sure about this as well. In terms of experience, social life, academics, and job opportunities, which would be better: University of Waterloo, or Georgia Tech?</p>

<p>I finally got a chance to look at the London Times ranking of world universities and it actually ranks McGill (# 13 in North America) higher than the University of Toronto (# 16). The difference is minimal though. Personally, if I were Canadian, I'd choose McGill over Toronto, basically because of its size (smaller than Toronto) and because of the opportunity to live in a bilingual environment (Montr</p>
<p>Tufts, Gtown, Williams ARE top-tier universities; in fact, they're among the best schools in the country, easily. These people must think only Harvard qualifies as top-tier.</p>
