If you will be studying in a program of six months or less, but think you may continue your studies in another program after this short-term program is completed, you should apply for a study permit before you go to Canada. If you do not have a valid study permit and wish to continue your studies, you will have to leave Canada in order to apply for one.
Canadian universities and colleges are respected worldwide for their high quality of education. A Canadian degree, diploma or certificate is highly regarded in business, government and academic circles throughout.
