Canada Study Visa

Your Pathway to Education in Canada

To study in Canada, most international students are required to obtain a Canadian Study Permit (commonly referred to as a student visa). This requirement applies to students who plan to study in Canada for more than 6 months.

How to Apply for a Canadian Study Visa

To apply for a Canada Student Visa, students must first enroll and receive acceptance from a designated Canadian educational institution. Once accepted, students can submit their application to the Canadian visa office responsible for their country of residence.

Requirements for a Canada Study Permit

Canadian immigration officials issue Study Permits to eligible applicants who meet the necessary immigration requirements. In addition to submitting the completed application forms, applicants must provide compelling supporting documents and pay the government processing fees for the Study Permit.

With a Valid Study Permit, You Can

  • Study at a designated learning institution in Canada.
  • Work on-campus or off-campus (under specific conditions) while studying.
  • Bring your family (spouse or dependent children) to Canada under certain conditions.


Study Permit Extension

If you are in Canada as a visitor and wish to apply for a study permit to attend a designated learning institution, you may be able to do so from within Canada. As of June 1, 2014, certain foreign nationals may apply for and receive a study permit from within Canada. These include:

  • minor children studying at the primary or secondary level;
  • exchange or visiting students; and
  • students who have completed a short-term course or program of study that is a condition for acceptance at a designated institution.

Upon successfully graduating from the program of study, the student receives a Post Graduate Work Permit for a minimum of one to a maximum of three years. 

Students can apply to become the permanent resident of Canada after their studies. Please visit the “Express Entry” section of the website for information on becoming permanent Canadian resident.
