Study permits, student visa for Canada
If you want to study in Canada you need to get Study Permits. A Study Permit is a document issued by Immigration Canada officials that permits a foreign individual to study in Canada, generally at a specific Canadian educational institution and in a specific program, and always for a limited time.
Immigration Canada will issue a Study Permit if an applicant has received an acceptance letter from a qualified Canadian educational institution, and possesses sufficient funds to pay for tuition and living costs. If your study program is more then six months then, Immigration Canada will ask applicants to undergo medical examination. Applicants who wish to study in Montreal or another city in the Province of Quebec will also require approval from immigration authorities of the Government of Quebec.
