Admission of International Students to Study in Canada
The instructional locations in British Columbia and Alberta are authorized by the Canadian government to admit international students. International applicants who want to study in Canada, and also Canadian students who transfer from other Canadian institutions, must follow the same procedures as those who study in the U.S. as follows:
- International student application form.
- Nonrefundable application fee made payable in Canadian dollars, sent prior to receipt of the letter of admission.
- Proof of English proficiency (see English proficiency policy in academic policies section).
- Official transcripts and diplomas from all colleges and universities previously attended, and official certified translations where necessary.
- Copy of the identification page of the student passport.
- Current bank statement and sponsor statement if applicable.
Upon acceptance to City University of Seattle, students will be issued a letter of admission. To obtain a student visa, this letter must be presented to the closest Canadian consular or immigration office. Students should consult the international student advisor at the Vancouver B.C. teaching location. Also, students may visit the Citizen and Immigration Canada website for helpful information on studying in Canada: www.cic.gc.ca/english/study/index.asp
