Study permit overview
A study permit is generally required for eligible longer-term study in Canada.
Applicants commonly prepare evidence concerning their Canadian institution, identity, education, finances and intended course of study.
School admission and immigration approval are separate decisions. Additional requirements may apply based on the program, institution, province and personal circumstances.
Receiving an acceptance letter does not
guarantee that a study permit will be
approved. The Canadian immigration
authority makes the final decision.
