Study & Stay

Canada, as an emigrant country for studying abroad, is suitable for studying, living, employment and immigration. It has been recognized and favored by international students because of its world-class education and lower cost of living and tuition fees for international students than countries like the United States and the United Kingdom. Students enjoy the same freedoms which protect Canadians – respect for human rights, equality, and a stable and peaceful society. They not only can feed their minds but also feast their eyes on the beauty of Canada.

Various overseas immigration policies are constantly introduced, which provide opportunities for international students to apply for permanent resident in Canada. With its unique charm and high enthusiasm, Canada attracts outstanding international students to come for study, employment, and immigration.

1. Study in Canada

You can study in Canada if you
• Have a Letter of Acceptance from a Designated Learning Institution (DLI)
• You have enough fund to cover tuition fee and living expenses
• You are in good health
• You have no criminal record if you are 18 years or older
• You will leave Canada when your study permit expires

 

In most cases, study permits are usually required for foreign nationals prior to their entering into Canada and starting their studies.

 

It is very important to choose the institution and program if you wish to work during your study or after your graduation. You need to choose the institution and program which will qualify you to work off-campus whiling studying and to apply for a post-graduation work permit (PGWP).

2. Work in Canada -Post-graduation Work Permit (PGWP)

• Complete a study program at a designated learning institution for at least 8 months that leads to a degree, diploma
or certificate
• Be a full-time student for all semesters expect the final semester
• Graduate form a PGWP eligible program

 

This is an open work permit which doesn’t have an employer’s name on it. It allows the students work for any of Canadian employers, and this opens a broad range of available immigration programs to students. And this is the reason why we say “Study & Stay” is the best pathway for immigration.
