Choose UBC Vancouver campus for more course options (300+ PG and UG), networking opportunities at top companies (Amazon, Microsoft, SAP Canada), and a more urban vibe.

However, UBC Okanagan campus offers better faculty interaction (18:1 student-to-faculty ratio), hands-on UG research, a smaller campus, and lower costs of living (CAD 1,850 or INR 1.25 Lakhs per month compared to UBC Vancouver's CAD 2,500 or INR 1.7 Lakhs).

Based on the rankings for MS Courses, the University of Toronto (U of T) ranked at # 1 but the students should not opt for any University based on only the rankings. There are many other parameters to consider like:

·       Affordability (Tuition Fee/ cost of living)

·       Acceptance Rates

·       Course Value and availability
