More than 6,00,000 international students chose Canada in 2018.

There are two major steps to take if students wish to come to Canada to study at the post-secondary level (in Canada the term post-secondary is commonly used to refer to tertiary or advanced education). First, students must be accepted in programs of study by a recognized Canadian post-secondary institution. Second, students must apply for and be granted a student authorization and visa from Canadian immigration authorities. These procedures take considerable time, and students should apply six months to a year in advance of when they wish to begin study in Canada.
More than 1,000,000 students from around the world choose to study in the United States. China and India together accounted for 67% of the increase in international students and they now constitute nearly 45% of the total number of international students in US higher education. The growing numbers of Indian students in the US have now also begun to influence other broad trends in international enrolment. Nearly two-thirds (64%) of Indian students are enrolled in graduate programs and this is contributing to a shift in the undergraduate-graduate mix in US institutions.
There are multiple reasons why one should choose US as the study destination. Few are as mentioned below.
