India has become one of the largest contributors of international students to foreign countries. Currently more than 23,00,000 students study in foreign countries every year. Two of the most important countries for Indian students are the USA and Canada. These are the countries that Indian students are interested in going to for pursuing their higher education. Today we will discuss the better study abroad option between the USA and Canada.
Canada has a more structured visa process than the USA. Getting a visa from Canada is any day easier than getting a visa from the USA. The USA requires you to follow a very detailed documentation process and your Visa can get rejected easily for the slightest of mistakes.
The job opportunities are better for STEM programmes in the USA whereas Canada provides equal job opportunities for all the options.
The cost of education depends on the university in the program that you are selecting. But in general, the USA is more expensive than Canada. The average tuition fee to study a course in the USA is US$70,000 as compared to US$60,000 in Canada.
The process of getting a permanent residence in Canada is a lot easier and most of the students are able to get a PR within five years of their migration to the country. The USA also provides the options to get a permanent residentship, but the process has become stricter over the years.
