College Admission Procedures in Canada
Most of the Canadian universities and other higher educational
Institutions have their own application guidelines and deadlines.
Overseas students are therefore advised to start the application
procedures well in advance. Once students decide the institution(s) that
they are interested in, they are advised to write directly to them to
receive the application procedure and detailed requirements for
acceptance. It is also good to inquire about scholarships and other
financial aid details and staying facilities. Students should apply for
a student authorization at the nearest Canadian diplomatic mission after
being accepted by an institution for a program of study in Canada. In
order to apply for a student authorization, overseas students need the
following documents:
- A valid passport.
- Letter of acceptance from the respective Canadian University,
college or other institution where the student is enrolled.
- Evidence of adequate funds to cover tuition and living costs of
students and their dependents (if any), including return
transportation.
- If applicable, a letter from the student's sponsor.
- A letter of reference from a dependable person in your community
will help.
- In some cases, a medical examination by a doctor designated by
the Canadian government may be needed. The immigration officer will
provide information about this requirement.
An exception to the above exists for citizens and
permanent residents of the important countries such as the United
States, St. Pierre, Miquelon and Greenland, who may apply for the
student authorization at a Canadian port of entry. Otherwise, the same
documents are required to apply in Canada for all students.
