Study in Canada

Canada stands out for quality education, a safe and multicultural environment, and work and immigration opportunities after graduation.

Why Canada?

  • High quality of life and safety
  • Internationally recognised universities and colleges

  • Education is managed by the provinces

Tuition and living costs

  • Tuition fees: approximately CAD 20,000–45,000 per year
  • Living costs: for the visa, in addition to tuition, you must show the annual living amount set by the government

Scholarships

  • Universities’ entrance and excellence scholarships (e.g. the University of Toronto’s Lester B. Pearson Scholarship)
  • Research and teaching assistantships for master’s and doctoral students
  • Scholarship opportunities in Canada are more limited than in the USA

Student visa: step by step

  1. Get an acceptance letter from a Designated Learning Institution (DLI).
  2. Most applicants need a provincial attestation letter (PAL/TAL); there are exemptions for master’s and PhD — check with IRCC.
  3. Proof of funds: tuition + travel + at least CAD 22,895 for living costs (outside Quebec).
  4. Apply online on the IRCC website.
  5. Within 30 days of the biometrics instruction letter, give fingerprints at VFS Global in Baku; take a medical exam if asked.

Fees

  • Study permit: CAD 150
  • Biometrics: CAD 85

Can you work on a student visa?

You can work off campus up to 24 hours a week during term and full-time during scheduled breaks; on-campus work has no hour limit.
