فارسیCanada is home to some of the best schools in the world. Canada welcomes more than 350,000 students from foreign jurisdictions each year. If you intend to study at a Canadian educational institution, most foreign nationals must apply for a study permit. A study permit, once issued, allows a foreign national to study in Canada at an approved institute for the duration of the specified course or program. You do not require a study permit to go to school in Canada if the course or program you intend to study is less that 6 months in duration.
To Be Eligible to Study in Canada:
- You must have been accepted by a school, college, university or other educational institution in Canada.
- You must have enough money to pay for your tuition fees, living expenses for yourself and any family members who come with you to Canada, and return transportation for yourself and any family members who come with you to Canada.
- You must be a law-abiding citizen with no criminal record and not be a risk to the security of Canada. You may have to provide a police certificate.
- You must be in good health and willing to complete a medical examination, if necessary.
- You must satisfy an immigration officer that you will leave Canada at the end of your authorized stay. A Temporary Resident Visa (TRV) is required for entry into Canada.
Working in Canada as a Student
It is possible to work in Canada, while you are here as a student, under any Citizenship and Immigration Canada’s (CIC’s) work programs for students. A student may be able to work in Canada during the course of study under the following categories:
- On campus without a Work Permit
- Off campus with a Work Permit
- In Co-op and Internship Programs, where work experience is part of the curriculum, with a Work Permit.
additionally, spouses or common-law partners of foreign students are eligible for a work permit for the duration as the study permit. Upon graduation, a foreign student may apply for a work permit under the Post-Graduation Work Permit Program. Under this program, the work permit may be issued for the length of the study program, up to a maximum of three years.
