The process of applying to university in Canada varies by province. You can apply directly to each university separately or, if in the same province, you can apply using the relevant province application system to apply to multiple institutions.
ApplyAlberta is the application used to apply to institutions in this region.
EducationPlannerBC allows you to organise and submit all applications to institutions in British Columbia
For Ontario universities, you can apply through OUAC
The Ontario Student Assistance Program can provide information on support with student finance.
Some Canadian universities also offer college credit for IB subjects and grades. You can check the individual institution's admission policy or search the IB recognition database.
A number of courses in Canada include co-op programmes, allowing students to work in a related field during their study.
Participating in a co-op program in Canada allows you to explore every corner of your dream job and make an informed decision before locking into your first real job.
When you land a co-op position, you’ll begin your work term in an entry-level position with managers and supervisors supporting you.
The difference between a co-op program and an internship is that co-ops are joint ventures between a university, employer, and student, while internships are between a student and their employer.
Internships allow students to attend semesters without sacrificing their full-time employment, while co-ops allow students to work full-time during tenure decisions.
In Canada, the average co-op student salary is $40,667 annually or $20.86 per hour.
