Also, the term “pre-health science”, that “she” used has never been used in Canada as far as I know. We don’t even say pre-med. Either you are in med school, or you are trying to get in, taking a variety of courses. There is no defined set of courses that we call pre-med.
Other differences between us and the US regarding post-secondary education:
Canadian universities are also almost completely free of fraternities and sororities.
We have sports scholarships, but they are nowhere near as lavish as in the US. Sports in general is a minor sideline for Canadian universities.
And to us, college always means community college. University is university (and never “uni” as some benighted countries call it).
