why are universities in canada so expensive?
>$3500.00 per semester
the fuck is this noise?
£4.5k in the UK ~$9.3k
Kill me tier desu, sucks that science in the UK is on it's knees too
>>7727802
What's even more surprising is that STEM undergrads generally cost less than social sciences/humanities by 400-700 dollars, for some fucking reason
>>7727802
>15k/semester
>public school
Welcome to America, faggots
>>7727802
What college? Is it a private school or a top tier school?
>>7727821
fucking uOttawa
I paid $20k a year for in state university tuition.
I pay about 140€ a year but that's not really for the tuition and more a membership of the student union thing
>>7727848
why is this allowed? how come he gets a free ride and i don't? i probably work just as hard as you, i'm part of the commonwealth, but look at this shit. 3500 and...i need a moment please...
>>7727866
oh i am not from a commonwealth nation
jesus this site is anglocentric
>>7727868
>english language website
>anglocentric
FUCKING WOAH
>>7727866
You're going to meme university and complaining about tuition.
Just go to any low tier uni and get full tuition covered with marks alone.
>>7727802
Canada has some of the cheapest higher education in the world. You're paying only 20% of the cost, subsidized heavily by the taxpayer (me). Get over it, you whiny bitch, and get a fucking job.

Commonwealth doesn't mean we share wealth. Canadians pay a lot of tax relative to most other nations, and we have all sorts of import tariffs that make products expensive (though I understand that Aussies get raped way harder on this for many things).
>>7727875
uOttawa is a low tier university though.
>>7727883
eurofags pay taxes too, and they get free university. hell, arabs get PAID to go to university. they get like 10k a year or something to buy new wives.
mine is 1.1k per semester
>on my way to college as an amerifat
I can already feel the debt
>>7727802
In Italy they cost around 2000€ per year, but you can pay much less according to your economic status.
>>7727928
Europeans have considerably less infrastructure to maintain, so they get more for their dollar. Canada has 17000 km of highways; Poland has a similar population and has 2500 km. Every community of 1000 maintains its own hospital, fire hall, school, and so on.
To fund higher education to that extent in Canada would require concurrent reduction in those other expenses, or a significantly higher tax burden.
>>7727949
> for their dollar
Or euro or pound, as the case may be. You know what I mean.
>>7727802
USA.
I pay about 10k a year in tuition.
However I pull out a little over that so I don't have to get a job.
I don't care really, it'll get payed off. I live pretty conservatively anyway. Buying a house or car isn't even on my goal list.
32k a year, because its a private college with good benefits, but if I ever fail out I'll probably end up killing myself
>live in california
>state school
>6k a year
Deal with it.
how much does it cost to get a masters in computer science at MIT?
>>7728073
varies; scholarships, grants and how you live factor into total cost

>>7731342
Per semester so 9k a year, even shit tier unis are charging that much. It's ludicrous
>>7727820
with tuition like that, you're the faggot. but so am i because i don't have any scholarships and pay out of state tuition so...
Not a single one of you got a scholarship? Dear god they were handing out scholarships like cookies my senior year of hs and I'm an amerifat.
Going to school full ride and I get about $1k a semester for book expenses
Granted it's not a huge name uni but it's growing and a lot of the profs are from top 10 schools like Harvard and such
>>7731415
What sucks is that you cant apply for entry scholarship once youve entered once right? Even if you go to another?
>7000cad/year

>sister goes to american uni (rutgers), i go to ubcc
>she pays 2x my tuition and is taking precalc and gen bio, while im in mech eng
lol kk.
>tfw I'm transferring from waterloo to rye-high for chem because of the crippling costs
>>7727949
You seriously compare Canada to Poland? Poland has one of the LEAST highways of all of Europe. Just look at how the roads in Poland connect to other countries, elsewhere its highway, in poland there isnt.
Besides that, what is the quality of the roads? In western europe the roads are very high standard (except for Belgium). From what I remember, it wasnt much to write home about in Canada or USA...
>>7727816
everything on the uk is on its fucking knees since you let in muhammad
>>7727802

>>7730631

>>7731513
>mfw 11k in waterloo cs
just kill me right now
>>7732437
Yeah, I'm over 20k in debt for just three terms here. There's no way I'm going to deal with this shit anymore when I can pay a third of that at a cheaper school, and still learn the same shit.
>not having a trust fund set up to completely pay for your 40K/year private school
Plebeians
I pay like 50 USD per semester, add another fifty of voluntary contribution to the school
>>7727802
>thinks that's expensive
lol, I moved to Canada because of how cheap university is. It's pretty much free compared to the US.
>>7732029
do you have to be born there?
>>7727802
>so expensive
>$3500 per semester
lol go fuck yourself anon, try going to an American University
>>7727816
>not living in scotland
>not getting uni for free

>tfw less then €2k / year here in the NL for any university
Gotta love socialist bullshit
>>7733897

PhDs are usually funded.
Not Masters.

Aren't Europeans always bragging about how their schooling is basically free and that Americans pay a shit load? Because judging by these numbers that's bullshit. Is this for all colleges in the UK? Because even here in the conservative state of Georgia, the college tuition of the 3rd largest college in the state is below $3000. Not to mention that we have a state wide scholarship called HOPE that pays $2000 if you have at least a 3.0 or will pay full ride: apartment, books, food cost and all, if you have a 3.8 along with a certain SAT score. Then of course Pell grants are super easy to get so I end up getting paid to go to undergrad without even having to try to apply to any of the other normal scholarships.
>>7734128
>tfw french
>tfw paid an actual salary (1200€ monthly) by the uni just for going there
>>7727802
that's a lot cheaper than I thought.
Especially given that a minimum wage job in Canada probably pays 15-20k per year.
Can I plz come there and steal your jobs, scholarships and women?
While here in Greece I pay nothing, it's also very hard to get a job to cover your living expenses.
Not to mention how inflexible the curriculums and boards are.
I wanted to change my major but it's impossible.
The only thing I can do is to either finish my masters or start over.
>>7734153
You faggots alongside germans are the most pretentious bastards. You give more handouts per capita than the fucking red cross.
>>7734153
Are you an undergrad? And how's the taxing in France compared to America?
>>7734172
Grad student (doing my master's)
I don't know about the taxes yet, I hadn't earned enough in 2014 to qualify for paying taxes (the salary started in september so I earned something like 4k total in 2014, way below the bar).
I have just done a simulation on the website of the finance ministry and I don't even think I earn enough in one year to pay taxes kek
