Study in Canada
Respected universities and colleges, co-op programs that add paid work experience, and a post-graduation work permit — with careful planning, because study-permit rules have tightened.
Plan early for Canada
Study-permit caps mean most applicants now need a Provincial Attestation Letter (PAL) from their school before applying.
