  • 1.  Canada paying for US college

    Posted 07-18-2014 01:49 PM
    Hello listmates:
    I have a client with a daughter that was born in Canada (but grew up and became a US citizen). He is INSISTING to me (without proof) that his daughter gets a free college education here in the US that is paid for by Canada. (Shes already a Jr at a very respectable university in NYC.  Essentially Canada deposits money into a US bank account and withdrawals are made as needed to pay for her college. I have never heard of this, and I have been scouring the Internet for two days to try and find anything that would support what hes saying...I have found nothing. Ha anyone ever heard of this that could maybe shed some light on what he is talking about? thanks.

    Amy,

    My understanding is that before one even gets to the numbers, the student must be a Canadian citizen attending a Canadian college incident to which he or she participates in an exchange program.  This doesn't sound like your facts at all.

    That would make a whole lot more sense, since I understand that Canadian students pay little or no tuition for public colleges in Canada. I would seriously doubt that the Canadian government would pay for tuition in US colleges, other than  as you suggest.
