Inside Higher Ed :: Quick Takes: Registrars and Students Oppose Higher Ed Bill, Oxford Creates Investment Fund, Affordability in U.S. and Canada, Still Crusading at Northwest Nazarene

[Christopher D. Green]

An apparently counterintuitive result from a survey of the relative affordability of Canadian and American universities from http://insidehighered.com/news/2006/03/28/qt "Public four-year colleges are more affordable, on the whole, in the United States than in Canada, according to a study to be released today by the Educational Policy Institute. The study ranks the 50 United States and 10 Canadian provinces (the District of Columbia is apparently left out) based on an index that includes education and living costs, grants, loans and other subsidies available to residents, and median household income. The report found the five most affordable states to be (from first to fifth) New Hampshire, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Mississippi and Georgia, and the most affordable Canadian province to be Quebec."
