Explore Education in Canada

Situated in the northern part of North America, Canada shares its border with the USA, encompassing 41% of the continent. Despite the vastness of the country, approximately four-fifths of the Canadian population resides in the urbanized areas near the southern border due to climatic conditions. Continuously recognized by the UN as the best country in the world to live and study, Canada offers compelling reasons to consider pursuing education within its borders.

The Canadian government permits international students to work up to 20 hours per week during regular academic sessions. International students can work full-time during scheduled breaks, such as winter or summer holidays, without the need to apply for a separate work permit. However, a Social Insurance Number (SIN) issued from Service Canada is required.

Upon completing their studies in Canada, international students can apply for a work permit under the Post Graduation Work Permit Program (PGWPP). A work permit under PGWPP can be issued for up to three years. Students must have studied full time in Canada and completed a program of study that lasted at least eight months.
