Canada Or UK For Undergraduate Studies? by Clinton7: 7:49am On Aug 25, 2022
Which country will be better to move to?

I am planning to study computer engineering and will like to have permanent residency, good opportunities etc.

Your help will be very much appreciated.

It depends on your study journey (your course determines your pathway).

I would prefer Canada because long-term residency is "secured". In Canada, I can comfortably have kids there knowing they would be citizens by birth. I also consider Canada to be more "multicultural" and generally find their laws more immigrant-friendly compared to that of the UK. Numerous resources for international students. Free healthcare for PR and citizens.

For international students, it's free if you pay the monthly 75 CAD insurance. Child benefits, if you've stayed in the country for 18 months. For Immigrants, PR and citizens, it's assured.

But, I love the UK and Canada because of the Socialist system. Socialist systems are better. If you seek a pathway in Healthcare, the UK might be a better place for you. Healthcare professionals are on the UK's shortage occupational list and as such, are always in demand.

So Canada should be the better option. I heard its hard to get citizenship in UK.

What is the lifestyle difference between Canada and UK?

Uyail has given you a perfect answer. I usually don’t recommend undergraduate for people unless their parents are extremely rich. Hope that is your case. Because na 4 years tuition and living expenses o. If you no get money better to go to a private university and go for one year masters or post grad later abroad

Canada trumps the UK slightly because they give citizenship by birth - every child you give birth to in Canada is automatically a Canadian citizen. This is not so for the UK. But, it will take you 6 years of living and working in the UK to become a British citizen.

Canadian Permanent Residency is instant via Express Entry. However, UK Permanent Residency (Indefinite Leave to Remain) can only be gotten after 5 years on a Tier 2 work Visa. So, yeah.

I can't tell you about the lifestyle difference between both countries as I haven't lived in either of them.
