Necessary authorizations
Once you have received your letter of admission from a Québec educational institution, you need to obtain the following documents :
- a Québec Acceptance Certificate (CAQ) for studies, issued by the Government of Québec
- a study permit, issued by the Government of Canada (the CAQ is required to obtain this permit)
First, verify the requirements for staying in Québec as a foreign student. In particular, you are required to have health and hospitalization insurance for the duration of your studies.
Also, you must be sure that you have the necessary resources to cover the costs of your stay , including tuition fees, transportation expenses (return ticket to your country of origin), settling-in expenses in the first year and living expenses.
