Questions parents ask

How much does it cost to study in Canada from India?

Across 134 courses in our research, one year in Canada typically costs about ₹36.9 L for tuition and living at today's exchange rate.

What could it cost when my child starts?

For a child in Grade 8 now, starting in 2031, the same year could cost about ₹50.8 L if fees rise 3% a year and the rupee falls 3.5% a year. An illustration, not a forecast; the rupee can also hold steady.

Why does the rupee matter for a degree in Canada?

Fees in Canada are paid in CAD. If the rupee weakens against the CAD, the same fee costs more rupees. Saving part of the money in dollars keeps pace with that.

Figures come from published college pages and our research, last built 6 November 2026. Rupee amounts use the exchange rates of late Oct 2026. Fees change every year; always confirm on the college's own website. Information only, not investment advice.
