Admission requirements to study in Canada vary depending on the level of study (undergraduate, graduate) and the institution.

4. Can international students work while studying in Canada?

Yes, international students in Canada can work part-time (up to 20 hours per week) during the academic year and full-time during scheduled breaks, such as summer or winter holidays, without a work permit. This helps students cover some of their living expenses while gaining valuable work experience.

 

5. Are there scholarships available for international students in Canada?

Yes, many Canadian universities offer scholarships, grants, and bursaries to international students based on academic merit, financial need, or other criteria. Popular scholarships include the Vanier Canada Graduate Scholarships, Lester B. Pearson International Scholarships, and the Canadian Commonwealth Scholarship Program.

 

6. What is a Designated Learning Institution (DLI)?

A Designated Learning Institution (DLI) is a school authorized by a provincial or territorial government in Canada to host international students. To apply for a study permit in Canada, you must have an acceptance letter from a DLI. Note that not all schools in Canada are DLIs, so it's important to check if the institution you are applying to has this designation.

 

7. How do I apply for a study permit in Canada?

To apply for a study permit, you will need an acceptance letter from a DLI, proof of sufficient funds to cover tuition and living expenses, a valid passport, and a clean criminal record. You may also be required to provide medical exam results. The application can be submitted online or at a Canadian visa office in your home country.

 

8. What are the language requirements for studying in Canada?

Most Canadian institutions require proof of English or French language proficiency. For English-speaking universities, common tests include IELTS and TOEFL. For French-speaking institutions, the Test d'évaluation de français (TEF) is often required. Each institution has its own minimum score requirements, so it's important to check with the specific program you are applying to.

 

9. Can I stay in Canada after I graduate?

Yes, after completing a study program at a DLI, international students can apply for a Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP). The PGWP allows graduates to work in Canada for up to three years, depending on the length of their study program. This experience can help them qualify for permanent residency through immigration programs such as the Canadian Experience Class (CEC) or Provincial Nominee Programs (PNPs).
