Canada, one of the leading study overseas destinations is the top choice of students when it comes to pursuing higher studies abroad. The country hosts nearly half a million international students each year and all the credit goes to the excellent quality of education offered by Canadian institutions at an affordable tuition fee. 

The Academic institutions in Canada are majorly divided into two categories i.e., Colleges and Universities. As both these terms are also widely used in India and South Asia, students generally misinterpret that the Canadian colleges and the universities are similar to the Indian colleges and the universities.
