[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nobody cares about the difference in going to a #27 school v a #28 school. The Canadian schools are [b]known well by those who need to know about them[/b]. Doing well is what matters (here or there).[/quote] Such as? I'm interested in how they are perceived in the US once the kid decides to come back for Grad school or look for work..[/quote] Good Canadian Unis (Toronto, Queens, McGill, UBC, a few others) are viewed very favorably by graduate programs. My husband is a US professor and Canadian universities are about the only foreign universities where you don't take a "prestige hit" if you land a job there. I went to grad school with people from McGill, Queens, and Toronto and I'd say that they are akin to places like Michigan or UVA -- you won't get much hand holding, there's less focus on residential collegiate activities than at liberal arts schools.
