Canada Charisma


The United Nations has ranked Canada as one of the Best Places in the world to live and study. This assessment was based upon Canada's achievements in terms of educational attainment, life expectancy, national income and general quality of life. It is also a highly developed science and technology sector.

Canada is considered as the ideal destination for quality studies. A Degree or Diploma from a College or University in Canada  has international recognition. Moreover its tuition fees are the lowest among the English speaking Countries as bulk of the institutes are public funded. It boosts a wide range of quality educational institutions for both Degrees and Diplomas in technical and professional disciplines. The intakes are September, January and May. The admissions are in progress for the January 2011 intake.

They offer an extensive range of courses and Degree programs from Bachelor's to Doctorate and also Certificate and Professional Degrees. The uniqueness of Canadian Colleges lies in the combination of employer-centered set of courses. These institutes have the primary function of responding to the training needs of business, industries, and public service sectors.

International students can pursue a Masters Degree if they have 16 years of education or a Post Graduate Diploma if they have 15 years. There are some MBA programs that accept 15 years of education. A large number of students from India enroll into the PG Diploma programs. These PG Diplomas are offered in a wide variety of fields of study and specialization. Most of these programs offer cooperative education and training that allow students to spend a portion of their academic year gaining practical experience in the workplace and hands on knowledge in the field of study. These co-op programs could be paid as well. Students are allowed to work part time i.e 20 hrs per week during the course of their first semester on campus and thereafter off campus. As per the immigration rule if a student studies in Canada for 1 year he gets a work permit of 1 year and if he studies for 2 years then a work permit upto 3 years.

The launch of the new visa category namely Student Partners Program (SPP) has proven to be an attraction for several students. It has simplified the procedure with limited documentation and shortened the processing time. This process is very easy and getting visa ratio is greater than 80%. The number of students going from India to Canada in 2010 has doubled due to these above factors.

Canada has a national policy for multiculturalism which works to ensure that people's customs and traditions are preserved and respected. All of this has been reflected in Canada's immigration policies. Canada welcomed more than 500,000 Permanent and Temporary residents in 2009. Today, Canada is home to immigrants from more than 240 countries. Most temporary workers, as well as foreign students who graduate in Canada, may apply to stay in the country permanently through the Canadian Experience Class and later become citizens of Canada. Around 800,000 people of Indian origin are currently resident in Canada. The number of foreign students who came to Canada grew by 7% last year, resulting in the highest number ever admitted to Canada.

The programs starting in January 2011 are limited and the seats tend to get filled up soon. Edwise recommends that all students apply immediately to save on the application fees, as well as not miss the intake and have sufficient time for the visa process.
