Study In Canada

Canada offers international students a visa or study permit to stay in Canada while they study. This visa is required if your course exceeds six months.

You must meet certain basic requirements to pursue education in Canada. 

These include having a valid passport (valid for six months or more), submitting a visa application form, providing your language proficiency results via IELTS/TOEFL, getting an admission letter from the chosen university, high school, and college transcripts, and presenting proof of sufficient funds. You’ll also have to submit a Statement of Purpose (SOP).

As soon as you finish your studies, your permit becomes invalid after 90 days or the expiry date of your study permit. Eligible people can apply for a Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) or Work Permit from inside Canada. Moreover, while working here under PGWP/Work Permit, you may also gain some experience that may help you qualify for permanent residence.

Of course, it is. You can study at some of the best universities in a leading industrialized nation. Any Indian student who completed Grade 12 can apply for admission and a visa. To qualify, they must have achieved a minimum of 50% in their final results. Depending on the program selected, this minimum requirement may vary.

To study in Canada, you must pass certain language tests, such as IELTS (with minimum 6.0 bands overall) or TOEFL (with minimum 540 for TOEFL pBT and 80 for TOEFL iBT). Depending on the course, colleges or universities may ask for other tests like SAT, GRE, and GMAT.

The majority of Canadian colleges or universities take 4-6 weeks to review applications. However, some institutions take 2-3 months to offer a Letter of Acceptance. Hence, we encourage students to apply six months before the course begins.

Submitting a complete and accurate visa application can significantly reduce the time taken for processing. After submitting the documentation, getting a Canada visa stamp usually takes 10-15 days. However, delays may occur due to missing documents or wrong application forms, biometric and interview appointments, etc.

Higher education costs are a main expense, and the amount varies depending on your course & school. Generally, tuition fees cost anywhere from C$7,000 to C$35,000 annually.

The sharing accommodation cost varies from C$4,800 to C$8,400 per year, depending on the location. Places near city centers and popular hot spots usually tend to be pricier.

In addition, living, transportation, health insurance, and other miscellaneous costs are around C$7,000 to C$11,000 per year.

Main the types of scholarships are available: government, non-government, or institutional scholarships. Each of these has different eligibility criteria. You can apply for it online according to your eligibility.

You can work up to 20 hours per week during the academic semester. However, you can increase your hours and work full-time during a scheduled break, i.e., summer or winter holidays/spring break. You can earn from C$800 to C$1,500 per month by working at the minimum wage rate of around C$10.25-C$15 per hour.

Your partner and dependent children may be allowed to come with you to Canada once your study permit is approved, as they can receive their visitor visas, work permits, or study permits. However, other family members, such as parents and siblings, are not automatically eligible for the same privileges.
