U.S.A. students' experience in Canada

A report conducted by Universities Canada (the full report can be downloaded from this link) looked at why students from the U.S.A. choose to study in Canada. Chief among the reasons is the cost of enrollment and beyond that is the opportunity to experience another culture. When it comes to cultural exposure, Canada is a more comfortable stretch for some U.S.A. students because Canadian and U.S.A. cultures are more alike than many other places where students could study. In general, U.S.A. students gave positive reports about their experience. The only exception is that they sometimes need assistance but have difficulty getting it because they are not perceived to be true international students.
