Hey there, future scholars! Exciting news from the world of education: the 2026 QS World University Rankings are out, and four Canadian universities have made it into the world’s top 100!

Leading the pack is McGill University, now ranked 27th globally, up from 29th last year! This prestigious university, located in Montreal, has earned accolades for its strong academic reputation and commitment to sustainability.

Hot on McGill's heels is the renowned University of Toronto, coming in at 29th. U of T has consistently maintained its status as a leading institution but saw a dip from last year's 25th position.

Don’t forget about the University of British Columbia (ranked 40th) and the University of Alberta (tied at 94th), both of which also shine in various important factors like sustainability and employment outcomes.

If you're considering studying in Canada, ensure your chosen program is from a Designated Learning Institution to apply for a study permit. The funds required can vary based on your family size, so check the details!

For those who graduate from eligible institutions, there's even the option of a Post-Graduation Work Permit to gain valuable work experience here in Canada. How awesome is that?
