Cost of living in Canada

Yes, there is a big difference between living in Canada and where you're from. It is crucial to research the way of life and cost of living in Canada in the area where you intend to remain. With a much lower cost of living than other Canadian cities, Quebec is one of the most cheap cities.

Additionally, you must demonstrate to the Canadian government that you have sufficient funds to cover your living expenses when requesting a student visa. So, remember that! 

Do not forget to factor in the following costs while creating your budget:

• Costs of communication: Since you'll be phoning your friends and family back home regularly, always put aside money in your budget for phone and data expenses. Look for student discounts and inexpensive calling plans. The cost every month will be around CAD 20.

• Supplies and textbooks: Purchasing textbooks might be expensive. For instance, books for engineering courses may cost anywhere from 250 to 350 CAD. Even more value may be found in programs like law, medicine, and pharmacy. By acquiring old books, digital versions, or even joining a library, you may keep this under your spending limit.

• Personal costs and miscellaneous expenses: Your daily expenses will include things like laundry, toiletries, clothes, eating out, and other things. This mostly depends on the lifestyle option you choose.
