Canada and Ireland both have significant costs for international master's students, but Canada is generally more expensive overall.

Canada:
- Tuition: CAD 15,000 - 65,000/year (higher for MBAs and specialized programs)
- Living expenses: CAD 1,500 - 2,500/month (major cities)
- Health insurance: CAD 600 - 1,000/year
- Visa proof of funds: At least CAD 20,635/year (subject to change)

Ireland:
- Tuition: €12,000 - 30,000/year (MBAs up to €35,000)
- Living expenses: €1,100 - 2,100/month (Dublin is costlier)
- Health insurance: €550/year
- Visa proof of funds: At least €10,000/year (subject to change)

Total annual costs (tuition + living) typically range:
- Canada: CAD 27,000 - 83,000/year
- Ireland: €22,000 - 56,000/year
