Career is the stepping-stone to a successful life. The job market is always on the look-out for potential candidates with specialized knowledge in relevant fields. While most of us can get our basic school education and diploma or bachelor’s from our home-country, opting to get specialized degrees/diplomas or masters from a globally top-rated university in the career field that we chose will be a great boost up. Getting a student visa to Canada also provides you the chance to immigrate and become a resident.
Canada is fast getting on top of the preferred destination list taking it to the fourth position in leading host countries for international students. Canada has some of the best ranking universities in the world. Students will get a chance to explore a different market with cultural diversity in a secure country. Canada’s high academic standards and rigorous quality controls ensure that you’ll be earning a high-quality education. Canadian degree or certificate is globally recognized and respected. Canadian universities and colleges employ the latest technologies and world-class facilities to enhance the experience of students. With names like MAC, Tim Hortons, Hootsuite, etc, under the belt, Canada can be called an epicenter of innovation and culture.
Here are 5 reasons why you should choose Canada for your higher studies;
- Cost of Living
The most important factor is that the Canadian dollar is not as expensive as USD making the tuition fee affordable as compared to the USA and the UK. When looking into the living expenses itself, you will find that within Canada the expenses for necessities like housing, food, and sustenance will vary broadly between different provinces. However, generally, any province you take you will find that the overall expenses will only be on the lesser side as compared to most European cities making it comparatively affordable.
- Quality of Education
The main reason international students come to Canada, according to the Canadian Bureau for International Education (CBIE), is the quality education provided by Canada’s universities and colleges. According to a CNBC report, “The American Association of Collegiate Registrars and Admissions Officers surveyed over 250 American colleges and universities and found that 39 percent of American schools witnessed a decline in international applications in the last year. Canadian schools, on the other hand, have seen a dramatic increase in applications from abroad.”
Another major indicator of quality of education for a nation as a whole is how big is the gap between the average universities and those that are deemed to be the most reputed ones owing to age or any other legacy. Here Canada is a clear winner. In a report released by the Huffpost on August 2019 called “This Is Why Canadian Universities Don’t Have College Admissions Scandals”, it states, “The quality and social return between the sort of least prestigious university and the most prestigious university is much smaller in Canada, whereas in the U.S., attendance at elite universities provides access to many of the top jobs, so the emphasis is on getting in.”
This means that your education in Canada will be valued and counted in your journey to a successful career no matter which university you choose.
- Canada has an open and welcoming society towards newcomers.
This provides Canada with a significant advantage during these times of rising anti-immigrant sentiment in other western countries. Canada has time and again been selected by many authorized global survey organizations to be the most ‘liveable’ country in the world. The strong economy, just government and welcoming culture of the nation enables smooth transition of immigrants into the Canadian lifestyle.
- Comprehensive study-work-immigrate package
Canada allows international students to work part-time. After completing their Canadian education, they are eligible for a Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) that enables them to stay in Canada and pursue full-time employment opportunities for up to three years. Subsequently, applying for and attaining the PR becomes much easier, allowing you to realize the full potential of your investment in a student visa.
- International studentsWho want to settle in Canada are awarded extra points through the federal Express Entry system and have numerous provincial immigration pathways available to them. This is again another provision to make immigration easier for students. The latest figures suggest that over 570,000 international students have been registered, which is triple the amount over the last ten years.
