Tuition Fees: Cent and College Diploma

tuition fees: That translates to almost 4 million people with a college diploma and five million with a university degree, according to Huffington Post Canada. The number holding doctorates has especially soared, doubling to more than 160,000 over the past ten years. Fifty one per cent of 25- to 64-year-olds have a tertiary university or college qualification, up from 41 per cent in 2001 -- the highest proportion among developed countries. Immigrants hold half of these degrees. Completion times remain long a PhD, for example, takes on average five to six years to earn. At the same time, tuition fees have increased by 40 per cent.
