Page "University Canada West" Paragraph 13

Tuition for a full undergraduate degree program at UCAN is higher than similar programs at public universities due to the fact that it is not publicly subsidized.

According to the Student Aid BC website, 30 per cent of UCW students defaulted on their government-backed loans in 2009.

That compares with a default rate of 3. 7 % at the University of British Columbia and 4. 7 % at the University of Victoria.
