UBC or SUNY universities?

<p>Hello.</p>

<p>I’ve been admitted to SUNY Buffalo and Stony Brook for civil engineering, and I’ve been admitted to UBC for bachelors of arts. Im not sure what i really want to do, but Im thinking of engineering of architecture. </p>

<p>The total cost of SUNY universities are around 25000 USD, and for UBC is around 35000 CAD,and as international student, I really can’t received good amount of financial aid. I will be able to pay max USD 35000, but i will be pushing my parents…</p>

<p>keeping cost and major in mind, which university is better to attend ? I prefer UBC over SUNYs, but again the cost is little problem. My parents are telling me that for U.S grad-schools, it is better to attend U.S schools than Canada…is it true? is it harder to get into U.S grad-schools if I do my undergraduate in Canada? </p>

<p>thanks.</p>
