Study in Canada from India - Applications open

Canada is one of the favoured countries by Indian students as their study abroad destination. It is home to a bunch of top-rated universities and colleges with affordable tuition fees as well. This makes it all the more appealing. The fact that Canada offers some stellar job opportunities is the cherry on top. Canada had a whopping over 550,000 new international students in 2022, which is a record intake. Their easing of travel restrictions and Post-Graduation Work Permit (PWP) rules have led to this surge in student intake. Apart from all these, the scenic beauty, multicultural diversity, and all-welcoming people are worth it.
