[quote=Anonymous]Canadian-American here. Canada is a really small country compared to the U.S. It’s also perfectly normal to live at home when you go to university, save for the top students. There isn’t the same breadth of applications and many students don’t apply as widely as they do in the U.S. because there just aren’t as many places to go. Furthermore, the top ranked universities in Canada are quite large, which is the opposite of the U.S. where too students are competing for very few elite spots. It’s also less of an arms race because you aren’t admitted on a whole resume package. Applications are very straightforward. Not sure about the PP who said Canadians would rather go to the U.S. That was unusual when I was growing up and still is. The majority of Canadians don’t even consider it due to the expense and the very different way in which applications are reviewed.[/quote]
