Why Canada as a destination has it all for overseas students?

Canada is enjoying amazing success in luring overseas students through innovative Study Visas. This includes the established Post-Graduation Work Visa and a clear route to Canada PR. The Federal Government of Canada has devised a strategy to attract overseas students. This will permit them to reside and build careers in the Maple Leaf Nation.

Canada had targeted to welcome 4.5 lakh overseas students by 2022. It overachieved this target in 2017 itself as there were 494, 525 Study Visa holders at diverse levels of study. Overseas post-secondary admissions spiked by 20% during 2016 and 2017. It reached 370, 975 students in this period, as quoted by the CIC News.

Overseas students are drawn to Canada by the prospect of building a new life. They are not arriving here just to obtain a qualification. Canada’s popularity with overseas students is soaring due to the following reasons:

• Fast-track Visa processing for specific qualified students from India, China, the Philippines, and Vietnam
• Post-Study Work Visas for 3 years and that too hassle-free
• Additional points incurred under Express Entry for overseas students graduating from institutions in Canada
• Innovative options and programs such as the stay and Study in Nova Scotia as well as rest of Atlantic Canada

In 2018, 7 out of 10 overseas students in Canada said that they are ambitious to have a career in Canada. On the other hand, 6 out of 10 said that they want to obtain the Canada PR.

The largest source nations for overseas students to Canada include India, China, and Mexico. Iran is now added to the list after the travel ban by the US. For these nations, Canada scores high on 3 crucial parameters – Post-graduation opportunities, affordability, and quality.

Of late there were concerns raised owing to strained capacities of metro areas and Saudi Arabia controversy. Nevertheless, Canada remains best equipped to address geographical and economic risks faced by nations that seek to enhance overseas enrollments.
