LENGHT OF STAY


A study permit is generally valid for the duration of your study program, with an increase of 90 days. This extra time allows you to prepare to leave Canada or sign up to extend your stay.

We are a family owned and operated business.

If you are unable to complete your courses before your permission date, you must apply an extension to extend your stay as a student.

If you complete your studies early, your permission will no longer be valid 90 days after completing your studies (regardless of the day printed on the study permit).

It is considered that you have completed your studies either on the date you receive your school's first notification (such as an email, letter, transcript, etc.) or when you receive your diploma or certificate.
