Study in Canada
An International Student Guide
Want to study in Canada? We answer all your key questions, including the cost of studying in Canada, available courses, and how you can use a Canadian study visa as a pathway to permanent residence. We represent over 100 Canadian educational institutions, ranging from English language schools to colleges and universities.
The number of international students in Canada continues to grow each year. Many of them are able to remain in Canada after completing their studies.
Approval of a Canadian study permit is always at the discretion of the visa officer.
Last year, Canada admitted over 400,000 international students. Most of these students came from France, Nigeria, China, Japan, South Korea, the United States, Brazil, Iran, India, and Vietnam.

Steps to Study in Canada
Here are the basic steps of the application process:
Choose a Program: Selecting your program is one of the most important factors in your study permit application. You need to present a strong case for studying in Canada in that specific program. We provide program recommendations based on your work experience and educational background, giving you the best possible chance for a successful application.
Apply to the School/University: After deciding on a program, we will help you prepare and submit your application. We assist you in obtaining a Letter of Acceptance (LOA) from a Canadian Designated Learning Institution (DLI) before applying for a study visa.
Apply for a Study Permit: With your Letter of Acceptance in hand, you will be ready to apply for your study permit. We will help you prepare and submit your application to Canadian immigration authorities.
International Student Document Checklist
Certain documents are required for the application process. Below is a list of documents that may be requested:
Letter of Acceptance (LOA): A letter sent by the school confirming your acceptance into your study program.
Proof of Financial Support: Evidence that you have enough funds to support yourself and any family members accompanying you. You must demonstrate that you can cover tuition fees as well as living expenses (accommodation, food, etc.) for your first year in Canada.
Identification Documents: Birth certificate, marriage certificate, and passport.
We recommend the assistance of a professional licensed by the Canadian government to help prepare the documents to be submitted and increase the chances of approval. It is important to remember that all submitted information will be available to officers in future applications, and a refusal—besides the financial cost and disappointment—can make approval of future applications more difficult.
