Saswat Mohalik, India:

Canadian universities do offer a very good quality of education and at affordable tuition fees. So that’s really great.

The US and the UK don’t really provide as many scholarships as Canada.  How much it costs to live here and stuff like that, that definitely affected why I chose to study in Canada.

Everyone, they are so welcoming. They have been so helpful.  Even if you make mistakes they forgive you and give you a chance, an opportunity to grow.  That’s the best part for me, making mistakes and still growing.
