High School Down, Where Next? · https://sfu-data-crunchers.herokuapp.com/
With rising youth unemployment rates and tuition costs in Canada, young people need a way to make an informed decision about post-secondary education. Not only is it important to be able to compare academic fees, but cost of living must also be factored in. Our app allows users to view the average rent and tuition based on institution and program of study at a glance. An overview at the top lets potential students narrow things down by province or city. Alternatively, one can start out limiting the search by desired fields. Sliders at the bottom can be used to filter the results by monetary ranges. No other tools empowers members of the next generation to guide their future paths based on interests, geographic constraints and financial factors in a multifaceted manner.
