Canadian Universities

Canadian universities are globally competitive, have a strong record of research excellence, and offer high quality education. From coast to coast, they share a common culture of quality and excellence, and a commitment to ensuring that high standards are achieved and maintained in their academic programs. As a result, a Canadian university degree is locally and globally recognized for its quality.

Close to 15,000 undergraduate and graduate degree programs are offered by roughly 100 institutions nationwide. Canadian universities offer excellent value for money across a wide range of programs and disciplines that provide students with invaluable hands-on experiences, including co-op placements and internships. Canada’s globally minded campuses offer students invaluable critical thinking and analytical skills required in today’s global economy.

International students can expect to be assisted in their university studies by resources and services, such as orientation sessions, support programs, academic advising, prayer rooms, safewalk programs, student clubs, and assistance with medical concerns or housing issues.

International students can often work while they study, taking advantage of many cooperative education and internship opportunities. There are also immigration programs that international students may qualify for post-graduation.

Canada’s system of university quality assurance is multi-layered, comprehensive, and rigorous, ensuring high-quality education across all Canadian universities.
