05

What are the financial requirements for studying in Canada?

 To study in Canada, you should have a minimum of $18,000 for your first-year tuition fees and $12,000 for living expenses. Keep in mind that these figures can vary based on your chosen academic program. Tuition costs differ across programs and institutions. Additionally, the cost of living can differ depending on the city or province you'll be residing in. Metropolitan areas like Toronto or Vancouver generally have higher living expenses compared to smaller towns.
 If you plan to bring family members with you, it's important to account for their expenses as well. An additional $3,000 per person is typically required for family members accompanying you. This is to ensure that you have enough funds to cover not only your educational costs but also the living expenses of your dependents.
Remember, these estimates are general and subject to change.

06

Can someone else financially support my studies in Canada?

Yes, if you don’t have the required funds yourself, a family member can provide financial support. They need to provide a letter stating their intention to support you financially, along with their financial documents as proof of their ability to do so.

04

Can I bring my family with me while studying in Canada?

Yes, you can bring your family with you while studying in Canada. Your spouse or common-law partner, as well as dependent children, may be eligible to accompany you during your studies. They can apply for a study permit, an open work permit, or simply a visitor visa, depending on their individual circumstances and your study program's duration.

05

Is it possible for my children to attend school while I am studying in Canada?

Absolutely, parents applying to study in Canada are welcome to include their dependent children on their study permit application. When a study permit is approved for a parent with accompanying children, the children will also receive a visa allowing them to stay in Canada for the same duration as the parent's permit.
Once in Canada, children aged 18 and below have the opportunity to attend Canadian elementary and secondary schools, with the majority being publicly funded, meaning there is no tuition cost. Canada is renowned for its high-quality education, offering parents the assurance that their children will receive an excellent learning experience.

06

What are the steps to immigrate to Canada and obtain Permanent Residence?

Here's a condensed list of the key steps to potentially obtain Canadian Permanent Residence (PR) through a study permit:
Select Eligible Program and School: Choose a program and educational institution recognized as a Designated Learning Institution (DLI) that offers Post Graduate Work Permit (PGWP) eligibility.
Apply and Study: Apply for admission, get accepted, and study in Canada, maintaining good academic standing.
Apply for PGWP: After graduation, apply for a Post Graduate Work Permit (PGWP) to gain Canadian work experience.
Enhance Profile: While working, enhance your profile through work experience, language skills, and qualifications.
Apply for PR: Apply for Permanent Residence through Express Entry or a Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) pathway based on your eligibility and receive an Invitation to Apply (ITA).

08

What is a Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP)?

A Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) is an open work permit that allows international students who have successfully completed their post-secondary education in Canada to work in any job without restrictions. It provides an opportunity to gain valuable work experience in Canada. This permit doesn't require a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) or a job offer confirmation.

10

Are all schools eligible for the Post Graduate Work Permit (PGWP)?

No, not all schools are eligible for the Post Graduate Work Permit (PGWP). It's important to attend a Designated Learning Institution (DLI) that meets the criteria for PGWP eligibility. Choosing the right school is crucial to ensure that you have the opportunity to work in Canada after completing your studies and to enable your accompanying spouse to obtain an Open Work Permit.  We always ensure that you receive admission to a school and program that is eligible for the work permit.

11

What are the eligibility criteria for a Post-Graduation Work Permit?

To be eligible for a PGWP, you must:
1-Apply for the work permit within 90 days of receiving written confirmation (e.g., transcript or official letter) from your institution, affirming that you've met academic program requirements.
2-Successfully complete and pass your program of study, receiving notification of eligibility for your degree, diploma, or certificate.
3-Possess a valid study permit when applying for the work permit.

12

What is the duration of the Post-Graduation Work Permit?

The duration of the work permit depends on the length of your program of study. Generally, if the program is a minimum of two years, graduates can obtain a three-year work permit. If the program was less than two years but longer than eight months, the work permit duration will be the same as the program’s length. In certain cases, a student who completed a one-year degree or diploma within two years of successfully completing a previous Canadian post-secondary degree or diploma may qualify for a three-year open work permit.

13

Can international students work while studying in Canada?

International students in Canada can work while studying with their study permit, and their partners can also work using an Open Work Permit. On-campus work doesn't require an additional permit and applies to various roles at the same institution. Off-campus work allows students to work 20 hours a week during academic sessions and full-time during breaks. Eligibility requires a valid Study Permit, enrollment in an eligible institution, good academic standing, and enrollment in a program lasting at least six months. Exceptions exist for certain programs. Graduates can apply for a Post-Graduation Work Permit allowing unrestricted work.

14

15

Can Student Abroad Help guarantee admission to a specific school or university?

While we cannot guarantee admission to any specific school or university, we strive to maximize your chances of acceptance. We utilize our expertise, knowledge of admission requirements, and personalized guidance to help you present a strong application. However, admission decisions ultimately rest with the educational institutions themselves.
