When parents come in to meet with guidance counselors and their high school students, a discussion about post-secondary plans is sure to take place. In order to draw some parameters around the college search process, families usually pick some geographic boundaries. Some put restrictions on flying, some put restrictions on the type of school, some put limitations on how far they are willing to drive. Oftentimes, we hear parents come up with a six hour drive limitation, or as far as Philadelphia.
If families are willing to drive as far south as Philadelphia, it would make sense to also look to our neighboring country in the North. Canada offers some of the strongest institutes of higher education at a fraction of the cost. Luckily, a Canadian College Fair is basically coming to your doorstep at the Newton Marriott in September. Take the time to think outside of the box; it may be the key to uncovering your child's dream school.
