I am heading into grade 12 this year with a focus in business/math. Knowing that, what universities would you guys recommend with the best international exchange opportunity(Europe to be specific). Thanks for any suggestions!

Windsor by far.. they have more international students than students from outside windsor... most of the students come from Windsor and surrounding city but from people that live more than 40 Km away they are most international students and that is why it is called Canada's International University.. they want your visa money.... and they will pass you if you put a bare effort into the exam.:D

not sure if it's the best uni for international exchange opportunities but University of Toronto has a lot of international opportunities. Of course they're overpriced and you only get to spend the summer there doing one course.
You can check out the UT summer abroad website if you wish:

I personally would just go there on a leisure trip on my own time. Someone went to Hong Kong for a course and ended up paying like $5000+ for one credit (i think, would need to confirm). Included plane ticket, living expenses, etc.

Btw the website seems to be down at the moment. Some database error. I'm sure they'll fix it eventually.

We've occasionally had a few exchange students in our classes here at Waterloo.. Science faculty.

I don't think Engineering or CS does any exchange stuff, since their course requirements are much more strict.
