The most important thing other than getting into your program is obtaining your study permit. Apart from some special circumstances, you will need a study permit to study in Canada. To apply for your permit, you must have been accepted by a school, college, university or other educational institution in Canada, and must be able to provide proof that:
- You have sufficient funds to cover tuition, living expenses, transportation and other costs while you are living in Canada (bank statements, proof of scholarship, parental bank statements, etc.);
- You are a law-abiding citizen and do not have a criminal record (police check from your country of residence);
- You are in good health (medical records);
- You will leave Canada once you have completed your studies.
