Canadian government threatens McGill against fees hike

Canadian government threatens McGill against fees hike


When taking the decision to raise the tuition fees for the MBA programme, the McGill University did not realise they will face problem by the name of Quebec Government.
To help the management department funding the university had earlier on decided to raise the annual cost for Quebec students from $1,700 to $30,000.
Despite its argument,that the change will make McGill the best university in Canada, the Education Minister Michelle Courchesne did not permit the government to make such changes considering the fact that it limit the accessibility of some Quebec students to the MBA programmes.
Almost threatening McGill, Courchesne said if the hike is brought into action the government will take away the subsidies amounting to $28,000 per student that it has awarded to McGill.
So far no reaction has come from the McGill side of the controversy.
