Is it possible to study in Canada without a study permit?
Updated on Dec 14, 2023A study permit is a legal document that allows international students to study in Canada and it is typically a requirement for enrolling in a Canadian educational institution for extended periods.
It's generally not possible to study in Canada without a study permit if your course of study lasts longer than six months. However, there are a few exceptions, such as short-term courses or programs lasting six months or less, for which a study permit may not be required.
It's important to review the specific requirements and exemptions on the official Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) website or consult with study abroad experts like Edvoy for more information on study permits and exceptions.
