    The Association of Universities and Colleges of Canada (AUCC), anorganisation composed of Canadian universities, defines two distinct types ofpost-secondary institutions in Canada: universities and colleges. Universities grantuniversity degrees, which include bachelor's degrees, master's degrees, anddoctoral degrees; and colleges, also known as community colleges, provide

    diplomas.[1]

    Canada's post-secondary opportunities revolve around a wide range of universityoptions. Throughout Canada's 13 provinces and territories, there are 98

    universities to choose from. With a population of over 34 million as of 2012,[2]

    1.8 million are enrolled in a specific University.[3] This averages out to 25thousand students per university. Programs are offered to graduating high school students through choice, however, studentsmust maintain specific entering averages, which generally range from 65-85%, depending on criteria set by the chosen

    university. On campus residences are available at 95% of universities in Canada.[4] Most include a meal plan and general

    utilities. Residence is optional at all post-secondary campuses.[citation needed]

    Degree programs last 4 years in addition to possible co-op opportunities and college affiliation for a hands-on approach toprograms. Tuition is based on program material and content which varies in price. A first year student will experience abroad range of courses while "program specific courses" begin in year two, based on internal university acceptance. In other

    words, a set GPA (Grade Point Average) must be achieved in order to advance.[citation needed]

    The Canadian post-secondary education system creates a wide range of opportunity for the future generation of students inaddition to graduates who want to continue gaining knowledge. Canada is a multicultural society, creating boundless routesfor success for each individual. Graduates go on to experience major employment opportunities bringing valuable up-to-dateknowledge to companies around the world. Canadian universities offer a higher level of education to meet the needs of

    individuals who desire a higher level of learning.[citation needed]

    Post-secondary education in Alberta is regulated by the Ministry of Enterprise and

    Advanced Education.[5] There are six universities in Alberta, eleven publiccolleges, two polytechnical institutes (which grant degrees), and seven privatecolleges (all of which grant degrees). Most private colleges refer to themselves as"university colleges", but are not legally universities, although they grant equivalent

    degrees.[5]

    Edmonton, the province's capital city, is home to the University of Alberta, theprovince's oldest and largest university, and Grant MacEwan University. There arealso two universities in Calgary: University of Calgary and Mount Royal University(although the University of Lethbridge has a campus downtown as well).

    In 2009, a bill was passed by the Alberta legislature that allowed the two publiccolleges that offered degrees (MacEwan College in Edmonton and Mount Royal College in Calgary) to rename themselves

    universities.[6] Mount Royal College was renamed Mount Royal University on September 3, 2009 [7] and Grant MacEwan

    College became Grant MacEwan University on September 24, 2009.[8]

    bylaws.[99] The First Nations University of Canada and the University of Reginaare both in Regina, the province's capital, and the University of Saskatchewan is inSaskatoon, the most populous city in Saskatchewan. The University ofSaskatchewan is the oldest university in the province, founded in 1907, and theFirst Nations University of Canada is the newest, established in 1976. TheUniversity of Saskatchewan is also the largest university in Saskatchewan with18,620 students, and the First Nations University of Canada (FNUC) is thesmallest with 840 students. The First Nations University is the only Canadianuniversity that caters to the needs of First Nations students. It was originally calledthe Federation of Saskatchewan Indian Nations, and once formed, it entered intoa federated agreement with the University of Regina to create the Saskatchewan Indian Federated College (SIFC). ThisAgreement allowed FNUC to become an independently administered university-college that served First Nations

    students.[100] The First Nations University of Canada is the only university in the province that does not offer graduate-level
