More good news from Canada! According to a report by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC), based on the report released by the international higher education information agency QS, Montreal, Canada, ranked first on the 2017 "Best Student Cities" list, with Paris in second place and London in third. This is the first time Montreal has defeated Paris, the champion for the past four years, jumping from 7th place last year to take the top spot.
Another Canadian city to enter the top 10 is Vancouver, which ranked 10th. Toronto, Canada, is tied for 11th place with Hong Kong.
QS evaluation criteria include university quality, student facilities, affordability, student-friendliness, cultural diversity, tolerance, pollution, and safety.
Ben Sowter, head of the QS intelligence unit and author of the rankings, predicts that the traditional advantages held by some European countries and the United States in attracting international students will be partially replaced by countries like Canada, and that Canada will become a major destination for international students.

1st: Montreal

Canada possesses a world-class education system and top-tier teaching quality, comparable to that of the UK and the US. The Canadian government also places great importance on investment in education. Canadian permanent residents can enjoy 13 years of free compulsory education, as well as a wide variety of scholarships, grants, interest-free loans, and more.
Children who immigrate to Canada can easily gain admission to world-class universities upon graduating from high school. However, international students face intense competition, with only 8% of spots available for entry into top universities. Therefore, allowing children to enjoy Canada's high-quality educational resources is a major motivation and objective.
WorldWay is now offering high-quality programs such as the Quebec Immigrant Investor Program, Manitoba Provincial Nominee Program (Investor), Manitoba Study-to-Immigrate Program, Prince Edward Island Provincial Nominee Program (Investor), and Saskatchewan Immigrant Nominee Program (Investor) to help you enjoy Canada's premium educational resources after immigrating.
