Nova Scotia has a long and proud tradition of educational excellence. Wherever graduates go—overseas or within Canada—their education is recognized and respected by other universities, colleges, colleagues, peers, and employers. Secondary school diplomas from Nova Scotia gain students entrance into colleges and universities around the world.

Nova Scotia prides itself on being Canada's Education Province. The country's first English-speaking secondary schools and universities were founded here. We have more academic institutions per capita than anywhere else in Canada and the country's highest percentage of citizens with a post-secondary education. If you study in Nova Scotia, you are guaranteed an internationally recognized and respected education that is also affordable.
