Thats why you accept all of them and move to mexico Kappa
capitalist america my dude
Anywhere from 2%-8%
I suppose I do often hear about US students being fucked and stuck in debt for a while (mostly the majors who do not make money), I don't typically hear about that from canadians but idk
I think that more has to do with the cost of uni here rather than than the loan interest
The problem is, if a highschooler is offered 100K, they'll take it, go to a school they couldn't otherwise afford, and major in something stupid
As opposed to doing something responsible
What is the usual cost for local students
for a moderately decent school
That's also why college costs so much in the states, every kid has access to stupid amounts of loan money
Most universities are around $20k/year
For in state
Maybe not most
And dorm/food
I think you get a pretty wide range
18-22
I pay like 6.5k a year
housing if I lived on campus would add I think like 800 or something to that
Idk the costs for any college other than my local 2-year community college
but it lists it's average cost for students living in town with family
On second thought, Reggie you're right, 20K a year is a decent enough estimate before you take into account scholarships and the like
"Students residing at home with parents providing food and housing should budget a total cost of $5,124."
international fees for canadian universities are in the 30-40k range
I know from looking at uni, cc was about 4k/year for full credit load, low level uni was 14k, mid range 20k, and like, state University 30k
they pay like 6 times my amount so that I don't have to pay as much Kappa
Private at about 42k
I spent next to nothing on undergrad, but tuition isn't where you get hit
It's housing/food
I mean
It is kinda
You guys probably get more scholarship opportunities then we do I suppose
I think it was still 7k/semester of just base tuition to the school i went to
I got 1k from UW towards my first year because of my highschool grades, but other than that I got nothing
With another 4 going to dorm and food
I feel like most of the time, you are spending very little on tuition itself, after scholarships, it's all the associated costs that rack up though
Not always mind you
That is not true for candian schools at all lol
it is the exact opposite infact
Yea it depends how many scholarships you can get
Pika, in Canada, how much do you pay for off-campus housing
If you are any color but white, youll usually do ok
off campus, let me check the price of apartments
within what range of the university are we considering
I guess here asians are being banned
So dont be yellow either
What most normal people would go for
I'll say in waterloo near the school then, okay
Are you saying no one's bunking up with you out in the boonies?
No, there are people who live 50 mins away by bus, but that is a vast minority
A 1 bedroom apartment is typically around 800 a month
what is the difference between a bachelor and a one bedroom
because bachelor goes for about 600
bachelor is like a studio apartment
One room
Well, one room and then a bathroom usually
So yeah, somewhere between 500-900 I'd say is a safe range for most places
ranging in quality
I never looked at apartments near the uni here
On one hand, i imagine they are very expensive being in the downtown of the city near the campus
On the other, they all look like crackhouses and are falling appart
I paid I think ~800/m for my apartment in school
Including utilities
If you want on campus housing, it'l be either about 3.5k in fall or 2.5k in winter/spring term
I think there are ways we could/should make college cheaper in the states
But neither political party seems to want to do anything sensible
raise tuiton for bullshit majors by 5%, lower for real majors by 5%
Kappa
5% ain't shit
But once again, there's very little you could do about housing/food costs
So it's always going to fall to loans in the end for a lot of people
Housing market here is so fucked, apartments are not too bad, but good fucking luck getting a house
the Chinese keep buying all of our houses
we are actually fucked
unrelated I just wanted to rant
if i had debt it probably would be payed off in a year
engineering pays
so does doing research that cuts your tuition in half
