What kind of college opportunities are there in Canada? I dont wanna live in the states anymore and the quicker I can get out the better.
McGill in Montreal is the most popular. Most of the other schools, which can be quite good, aren't well-known outside Canada. McMaster is very good, a lot of places have certain specialties more so than the american "liberal arts" broad definition. Some are more science-specific, math-specific, etc. There are issues going to school abroad... you need visas if you want any sort of job, it can be expensive and hard to get tuition assistance, and you need to make sure that your credentials, after you graduate, would still be compatible with where you want to live afterwards. Not to discourage you. McGill is extremely popular in the US, and you can certainly look at schools in Canada. But if you're just feeling stir-crazy, you could look at a different region of the US, in addition to looking abroad.
Some of the best in the world, but it all depends on what you want to study and whether you can get in as a non-citizen without paying huge fees.

some good universities are: Concordia U McGill U of Montreal U of Toronto U of Alberta Queen's U be careful of anything in Quebec because you may have to take a french course (i don't know if that's a problem for you or not) and be careful of any college in Quebec because it's a cegep. Colleges and Universities in Canada do not mean the same as in the US. In the US they mean different sizes usually, but in Canada colleges mean lesser education with less qualified teachers (for the most part)- or they could just be concentrated on a particular area. And like i said about Quebec it means it's a cegep- which is a required thing to do in between high school and U (if you want to go to a U). does this make sense or help you?
you forgot the university of winnipeg! we may be small but we rock! one of the top undergrad schools in WESTERN canada (ie outside of toronto/ottawa/montreal and not the maritimes) sure mcgill is good but uber expensive for tuition and living costs. i live in winnipeg where i can rent a three storey house for under 700 bucks a month if i look around!!! (and i know that for a fact because i lived in one last year!)
The University of Montreal is not an anglophone institution As for the differences between or systems: A canadian university is the equivelent of an american college and a Canadian college is equivelent to an american trade or vocational school For Pysch I'd recomend Brock U in StCatherines Ontario if it's specifically just game designing you're looking for then you'd want to check out a private media arts school, not anything that specific for our college and U programs...to my knowledge anyways for creative writing I might recomend Queens, thier english department is pretty amazing
the u of saskachewan has the third top law school in the country and it rocks. It's all revamped. - new gym. tunnels to every building - so in those -50 degree winter days it'll be nice.
I'd say U of Guelph. Canada's top comprehensive university, it also has a active student people, that make sure there is decent food for vegans and everyone else to eat. Adminstration are nice people. We have a large variety of program, fine art to hotel adminstration to agriculture. It's a nice place to be. Alot of the americans i've talk to in guelph say it's a good education for the buck, not that i know the truth about that statement.
