The cost of post-secondary education has more than doubled over the last decade, and with all levels of government looking to slash spending, this trend will likely continue in the years to come. Estimates by the Canadian Federation of Students peg the current cost of one year of post-secondary studies (tuition, rent, books and food) at approximately $9,000. If you have young children today you will be looking at more than $50,000 per child in total costs for a post-secondary education. And that's just for a bachelor's degree! If your children are contemplating a professional field such as law or medicine, or a post-graduate degree, the total cost will be significantly higher
Meanwhile, tomorrow's job market will demand more education and more advanced technical skills. In short, a better education means a more satisfying and higher paying job. Don't let the cost prevent your children from pursuing their post-secondary education,
Plan ahead!
