Canada is proud to be the home of several prestigious universities and colleges that offer a high standard of education, with students coming here to study from all over the world. Becoming a student in Canada is a simple process since most educational institutions do not have an entrance exam, and the admission process becomes easier if you have previous education from your country of origin.

A study permit is one of the ways to receive a Canadian education and valuable work experience. Together with a student visa, you will be able to also receive a work permit, which gives you the opportunity to apply for permanent residence.
Obtaining a student visa gives you and your family a number of benefits:
Canada welcomes foreign students, as they are the most valuable candidates for immigration.
The economic value of foreign students is equivalent to Canada’s auto, aircraft, and lumber exports.
However, while foreign students are a major asset to Canada, obtaining a student permit (visa) is not an easy process.
A student permit is a temporary residence visa, and while Canada gives opportunities for foreign students to permanently reside in Canada, the decision of an immigration officer who reviews applications makes their decision based on the assumption that the student will return to their country of origin after graduation.
The embassy’s directives for the student visa approval process includes dozens of factors, such as choice of university/college program, age, ability to pay for their education, whether the student is registered alone or living with their family, and more.
It is crucial to consider all the factors for student visa approval, since if you do not have the proper documentation, your application could be denied. Chances of success are close to 100% if your documents are carefully and accurately compiled.
For example, based on our past client data, it is more appropriate to enter in a university/college program that maybe your second choice, but will simplify the visa process, and then afterward change into your preferred program – which is completely legal.
Despite the fact that Canada is one of many countries that requires all students to pay for their university/college tuition, there is still a chance to receive full or partial funding from scholarships.
The criteria for obtaining the scholarships vary with each program, and our immigration consultants are here to help you select the right one.

Many international students choose to work while studying in Canada in order to gain more Canadian working experience, as well as supplement their income, or to be able to cover the cost of the education.
