For public universities it depends on the province the university is in and the rules governing that university though the shortest vetting time for public universities is 3 months. For the National University System the professor vetting system takes a minimum of 8 months to a year.

Is college considered cheap or expensive within your nation: Depends on the type of university. Overall they are considered to be inexpensive but private universities can be expensive due to the fact that they don’t have government support.

Public universities, those which are 100% government supported and private universities with government subsidies, are generally middle of the road in cost. Public universities have a cap on how much they can charge for tuition where that cap is depends on several factors.

The National University System is a 100% tuition free university system run by the federal government; books, housing, and other costs are subsidized and sometimes free depending on the economic status of the students. However as explained above if one drops out and has been in school for longer than 6 months they are required to pay the tuition plus other costs in full for the duration of the time they where in school.
