If you are a foreign national interested in studying at an educational institution in Canada, you will require a Canadian study permit (also referred to as a student visa), which you may apply for after you have been accepted by a Canadian designated learning institution.

Canada Student Permit Requirements

It is necessary to make sure of the following:

• The programs or courses you choose to study in Canada are in line with the sort of study or work you have previously completed. This is something that Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) will be looking for.
• Prove proof to the IRCC that you will be able to support yourself financially throughout your studies, in addition to having sufficient money to pay for all your educational fees. You may provide proof that your parents will support you financially in order to confirm that you have the necessary money to pay for your studies.

It’s also necessary to note that particular institutions and programs with certain lengths may qualify student visa recipients for post-graduate and off-campus work permits. If you would like to work during your studies (or afterward), determine beforehand whether the school or program you would like to select qualifies.
