It's important to keep up to date with immigration information, and to apply for study permits as soon as possible.

International students who will study in Canada for longer than six months must apply for a study permit. |
| Temporary Resident Visa (TRV) |
International students from some countries may also need a Temporary Resident Visa (TRV) before coming to Canada, which can be applied for at the same time as the study permit. |
