Study in Canada

You can send your child to Canada to attend elementary or high school or prepare for their post-secondary education at one of our English or French language schools. They will develop language skills while experiencing a new culture and building international friendships.

Canadian academic credentials are recognized worldwide and study costs for international students are generally lower than in other English-speaking countries (QS Top Universities, 2022). You can apply for scholarships to help you cover some education and living expenses.

There are many pathways to college and university in Canada. Choosing between college and university depends on your interests and goals. Canadian colleges and universities offer flexibility. If you study at one school and wish to transfer to another you are typically able to receive academic credit for courses you already completed. Some people even choose to attend both college and university.
