Vicky,

    Have you talked to Charles Lewton-Brain or Dee at Alberta Institute
    of Art and Design about a school in Canada? Have you checked out
    Sheridan in Ontario? Have you talked to local jewelry repair shop
    owners to find out what their path was and what accreditations they
    have and how profitable their businesses are? 

    I've just finished a course (not jewelry related) where I had to
    travel and rent accommodation in the US. Even though I live in the
    US now, I found it much more expensive than I thought it would be to
    go away to school. On the other hand, you could wait six months and
    with the Canadian dollar going up and the US heading into long term
    ruin, it may cost less than you have budgeted for :-) 

Silani
