WHY STUDY IN CANADA?
One of the Best Places in the World to Live: Canada is continually rated as one of the best countries in the world to live since 1994 according to the United Nations (UN) and the Economist Intelligence Unit. In the UN survey, Canada earned particularly high marks for its access to education, high life expectancy (due to universal health care system); and low crime and violence rates. Canada also ranks among the “top wealthiest and top quality-of-life” countries in the world, according to OECD Better Life Index.
Welcoming Environment / Multicultural Country: Canada has traditionally been a country of immigrants and continues to welcome an annual average of more than 250,000 immigrants from all over the world. Canada is characterized by a vibrant, inclusive culture that draws strength from the many immigrant groups that have made Canada their home. The government of Canada is dedicated to economic growth, which is why they are recruiting more workers and new immigrants.
Canada is known for tolerance and a welcoming nature and almost all of the world’s groups are represented in Canada.
Possibility to work in Canada during your studies and also after graduation: As an international student, you are able to work part-time (20 hours a week) during the school year and full-time (40 hours a week) during scheduled school breaks/holidays. This work experience gives you the opportunity to supplement your income, and gain valuable skills and contacts in the community.
Also, International students who have graduated from a Canadian university or college have the opportunity to work in Canada for up to 3 (three) years after they receive their degree or diploma.
Canada’s education system: Canadian universities consistently rank among the best in the world and maintain high standards of academic excellence. Moreover, Canadian tuition fees are some of the lowest in English-speaking countries.
Pathway to Immigrate to Canada: International students, who have worked full-time after graduation for a minimum of 1 (one) year, are eligible to apply for Canadian Permanent Residence; which is a pathway to Canadian Citizenship.
