Canadian universities and colleges are popular among international students who wish to study abroad. Fifteen universities in Canada are ranked in the top 500 of the best universities in the world.

Since 2015, Canada has been doubling the number of study permits issued yearly. A study permit facilitates an international student to study in Canada at a valid institute for the specified study program.

After graduation, the international student is eligible to apply for a work permit through the PGWP or Post-Graduation Work Permit Program. The permit allows graduates to work in Canada. In this program, the permit issued is valid for the duration of the study program or a maximum of 3 years.
