What do I need ?

  You do not need a study permit if you are planning to study in a short-term program in Canada
     for six months or less.


  Think carefully:
     We encourage you to apply for a study permit before you come to Canada if you are planning to
     continue with your studies in another program after the short program.


  This will allow you to apply for your new program from within Canada.
     Otherwise, you will have to apply for a Canadian visa office abroad and LEAVE CANADA.
 

 How do I get a visa ?


  1) Visitors from some countries will need a Temporary Residents Visa (TRV).
