international students in Canada in December 2019, from which 219,855 were Indian students! It is a great
number and shows how much students from India are interested in studying in
Canada. Indian Students like you who are planning to study in Canada usually
have many questions and confusion and go through many hurdles before achieving
this dream. One such question that revolves around their minds is How to
apply for Top University in Canada?
This blog will try to answer how you can apply to a university in Canada through some easy steps. The requirement for each course is different so you should consider looking at the requirements for the course you like.
Here are a few steps that you can follow to make applying to a university in Canada a bit easier for you:
Check eligibility
You can apply to a University in Canada as an international student only if you are eligible. Checking your eligibility is the first thing you need to do, and proceed with all your further plans accordingly. The requirements of different Provinces are different, so you should also take care of it as well. As for the general requirements of all the universities, these are as follows:
- Updated passport
- An English and/or French language proficiency qualification
- Proof of funds for your studies
- Good academic record
Find a course and Shortlist universities or Colleges
Select a few Colleges/Universities out of many that go well with your career goals and the location you want to live. Canadian universities allow you to choose and apply for a specific major, unlike many other universities in other countries. It would be best if you apply for an institution on the designated learning institutes (DLI) list to obtain the maximum benefits as a student. Always try to make sure you select the University after due research so you may not need to change the University or program later as the fees are quite much for that.
Take English/French Language Test
All Colleges and Universities in Canada require you to qualify for the English language proficiency test. These colleges and Universities accept the IELTS, so it is always good to try to book and give your IELTS exam beforehand and fulfil the band's requirements set by the college or University. If you want to study in any part of Canada where French is prevalent, you need to take French language proficiency tests like TEF DALF, DELF, or TCF.
Apply to Universities
As the application process varies widely from course to course and institution to institution. It would be best to reach out to the universities you are interested in, and they will send you their application packs. You should consider checking the requirements on their application form and raise any queries about lodging, fees, medical facilities, meals at this time. The application fee at University can range from around CA$100 (US$78) to CA$250 (US$195), and so it is always good to be certain of where you want to study beforehand. After you have sent the application, wait for it to be accepted, and if you are selected, an acceptance letter will then be shared with you.
Apply for your study
To apply for study, you need to have an admission letter. For study purposes, only the acceptance letters from DLI Uni are valid. You will also be required to have other evidence like an Updated passport and proof that you can support yourself financially. But in case you want to study in the province of Quebec, you will also need a 'Certificat d'acceptation du Quebec (CAQ), which your University will give you. Biometrics may be other evidence that you need to submit.
