Canada Student Visa and Permit
With exceptional word-class facilities, studying in Canadian Universities and Colleges can help provide you with top-notch educational qualifications and an enriching career. To study in Canada, you must acquire a Canada Student Visa.
In case program or course is less than six months in duration, you may be eligible to study without a study permit.
Eligibility requirements for a Canada Student Visa and Study Permit
Do I need a Visa to enter Canada too?
If you come from a visa-exempt country (e.g., the United States) you will not require a separate Student Visa to enter Canada. You will only need a Study Permit which can be obtained at the nearest Visa Office or at the Port of Entry.
If you come from a country which requires an entry visa (e.g., India) you will have to secure both a Canada Student Visa and a Study Permit.
What can I do when my course has ended?
When your course ends it does not necessarily mean that your journey within Canada has ended. Under normal circumstances, the Canadian Government issues work permits after completion of your graduate or post graduate degree from a participating institution for up to 3 years. This helps outgoing students work towards earning valuable Canadian experience, paying off their education loans or even exploring the Canadian job market for permanent settlement.
For those wishing to remain in Canada and immigrate permanently, they can apply for immigration under a program known as Canadian Experience Class or Quebec Experience Class.
