Immigration information

There are several documents that international students need to enter Canada to study and work here. Throughout your time at HÂş»­, you are responsible for maintaining your immigration status and complying with Canadian immigration regulations.

Required documents for studying in Canada

In addition to a study permit, you may also need a provincial attestation letter (PAL) and/or an entry visa (including a temporary resident visa and/or electronic travel authorization).

Students who have been accepted directly into a program with a mandatory work-integrated learning component will also require a co-op work permit.
