Six Reasons to Study at a University or College in Canada<\/h2>\n

1. Value for money and standard of living<\/h3>\n

The high standards of Canadian education, combined with a low inflation rate, mean your time studying here will be cost-effective due to lower tuition fees and rent.<\/p>\n

Canada ranks above the global average in housing, subjective well-being, personal security, health status, income and wealth, social connections, environmental quality, jobs and earnings, education and skills, work-life balance, and civic engagement, all combining for a much higher standard of living than elsewhere in the world.<\/p>\n

3.\u00a0Multiculturalism<\/h3>\n

The Fraser Institute\u2019s Human Freedom Index<\/a> has previously crowned Canada the sixth freest country in the world, with its tolerance of immigrants, minorities, freedom of expression and beliefs standing out. 92% of those polled agreed that their country is a good place for immigrants, and another 94% said they believe that they have the freedom to choose the course of their own lives.<\/p>\n
