Yes, it's separate. Everything's different.
We have five years of secondary school, two mandatory years of Cegep, then university. It's a completely different system, perhaps more similar to the European system, the LMD, the licence, master's and doctorate, which consists of three years of university.
The difference is that four years of university are subsidized in the rest of the country, whereas, in Quebec, we subsidize three, plus two years of Cegep, which cost roughly the equivalent of a year of university.
It ends up being the same amount.
