What are the differences between American and Canadian university systems?

In recent years, the upsurge of studying abroad and immigrating to Canada is in the ascendant. However, due to the great difference between Canadian education system and China, many people are sighing and sighing. In fact, Canada's university system is not complicated. The author compares it with the United States to illustrate the characteristics of Canadian university system. The difference between American and Canadian graduate schools. Differences in school-running systems: There are more than 1000 universities in the United States, both public and private, with great differences, and most of the top American universities in the world are private universities, and their funds mainly come from donations from individuals, companies or alumni associations. There are only more than 90 universities in Canada, most of which are public universities, with little difference, and the funds are mainly from government grants. As a result, the master's application in the United States is more flexible and the admission conditions are quite different; However, Canadian universities have rigid requirements for master's applications and uniform admission conditions. The difference between tuition fees and scholarships. The tuition fees of Canadian universities are generally 50% lower than those of the United States, with an average of about 8,000 Canadian dollars per year. Because of this, many American students study in Canada. Regarding scholarships, Canadian universities basically do not offer "full prizes" or "half prizes" to international students, which is similar to American universities. This is mainly because Canada is dominated by public universities, and a large number of scholarships are mainly for local residents. However, in terms of the ratio of scholarships to tuition fees paid, Canada is higher than the United States. Because Canada not only provides some scholarships and opportunities for teaching assistants and research assistants to international students, but also has a unique C O-OP course (short for C O-Operational Education, commonly known as "paid internship course"), students can get corresponding remuneration during their internship. English entrance examination requires American graduate schools to provide test scores such as G RE, GMAT and LSAT. , and take this test score as an important reference standard for admission and scholarship award, while graduate schools in Canada generally only need applicants to provide T OEFL or IELTS scores. In addition to GMAT scores, only science, engineering and liberal arts majors in some schools need G RE scores. Specific application should refer to the professional requirements of the school in detail.
