my son is in his second year of an engineering degree (biomedical) the tuition is $7,100 per year. The books work out to about $1800.
It's not cheap, but it's not crazy expensive either. Plus the school is in downtown Toronto.
He just applied to Home Depot last month for a job, which came through today. It took him 3 interviews (for a retail job???) plus references plus a 2 followup calls to land it. Unfortunately, it is minimum wage ($10/hr or so) but he should be able to save up for next term.
