I'm a US citizen researching Library and Information Science programs in both the US and Canada. The University of British Columbia has a well-regarded program, but it isn't cheap -- and it doesn't look as though I would be eligible for a federal loan at that particular school. I am very wary of taking out private loans, but I would otherwise find it difficult to cover the full tuition, fees, and cost of living in Vancouver.
Any fellow Americans doing an MLIS in Canada or studying anything at UBC? How are you funding it?
