Where did you go to school? (I needz help)

Hey everyone hows it going?

So I got asked to do a presentation about going to university for my old college (doing it may help me get a job) and I think I'm going to be doing the presentation on studying in another country.

I've never liked university in the UK, in fact at some points I've down right hated it but the two semesters I studied in Canada, well they were amoungst the best months of my life.

I'd of been better off studying in Canada from the get go for the full four years but no one told me I could.

This presentation is my chance to tell people that they can do it and it'll make immigrating to another country alot easier.

It would be a really huge help if you could tell me where you guys went to school and how much it costed you to do it (dont have to put this I could probably look it up).

Americans, I'm really looking for colleges that are cheap we get given very little in funding so I'd imagine the expensive schools would exclude most people.

Thanks.

bump cause I really do need help on this one.

at mcgill university or concordia university in montreal it costs about 3000 canadian dollars per year if you're taking 5 courses per semester. in quebec, undergraduate degrees can be obtained in 3 years so it costs about 9000$ total. (this is for quebec residents, if you're from out of province or international it would cost you a lot more).

Thanks republic, yeah i've looked at canadian universities, the rule of thumb seems to be look at the price they state then double it but with the going exchange rate its not actually that bad.

Malcolm, whats your major?

Emily, no I just cant spell.

SuperRyan, I dont really know the differences I have friends who went to state universities like SUNY Postdam or Keane state.

SuperRyan on May 10 '09 at 11:41am

If you're looking for a college that's cheap in the US, try and find a community college. They are less expensive and usually just as good as more expensive schools.

stubby43 on May 10 '09 at 11:43am

Going to America for the first time was an amazing experience because it was worlds apart from where I'm from, its alot easier to be excited about a country when its new and fresh.

emilymmkay on May 10 '09 at 11:46am

tru tru

stubby43 on May 10 '09 at 11:46am

Ryan, thats kind of why am asking where people went to school I dont really know where to start with this.

Ill be a senior @ Ringling in the fall.

Tuition price goes up every year. (13K+ per semester)

For most degrees, I think community college is the route to go for the first 2-3 years. Then finish up your degree, and the "important" classes at a big name university, and your diploma will have that name on it instead of a small community college.

xiv on May 10 '09 at 11:50am

At the community college near-by, a semester is under $2k (full-time, 4-5 classes)... very inexpensive.

stubby43 on May 10 '09 at 11:54am

Cool thanks for the advice xiv.

P.S thanks to everyone for the help so far, really appricate it.

P.S.S is there a big list of all the american/canadian/australian/new zeland schools for your country?

SuperRyan on May 10 '09 at 11:54am

I go to community college and it's only a few grand per semester

SuperRyan on May 10 '09 at 11:54am

What state are you thinking of going to school in?

stubby43 on May 10 '09 at 11:58am

I'm not actually going to go to school in the states, I'm doing a presentation for a group of 16/17 year olds who will be applying to schools soon.

The states that would probably have the most appeal would be east coast states like New hampshire, Masacutest (Sorry I butchered the spelling), New york and then west coast like Califorina.

I went to catholic u for a year. that one gets a big THUMBS DOWN from me.

then I went to Howard Community College for like a year and a half and that was alright I guess but it's not like a real college. cheap though.

now I go to Maryland Institute College of Art and the tuitiion is bonkers expensive and the administration is borderline retarded but I do like it bunch.

Steve The Great on May 10 '09 at 12:00pm

Massachusetts :)

Steve The Great on May 10 '09 at 12:01pm

there are a ton of schools in the boston, nyc, philly, baltimore, dc corridor.

lookpolish on May 10 '09 at 12:06pm

I went to Cornell University in central NY State, and I think my tuition was between $30K and $40K a year.

I went to Ramapo College of New Jersey.

Tuition stuff, although I think it was a little bit less when I went.

Chipmnk on May 10 '09 at 12:45pm

I am currently attending University of California, Irvine. It's $20,000 a year. Here is the breakdown of tuition/fees/etc.

bsweber on May 10 '09 at 12:47pm

University of Delaware = $29,604/year for out of state/country

(for me it was like 5K, bc I live in Delaware)

canceromega on May 10 '09 at 12:52pm

I go to the University of Texas in Austin and I pay more or less $16k a year, but tuition is dependent on which school you're in and how many hours you take. Here's our flat rates for 09-10. Also, keep in mind that publicly funded universities have tuition go up for out-of-state residents.
