Post-graduation work permit (PGWP). If you graduate from an eligible program, you can receive a Post-Graduation Work Permit of up to three years, depending on the length of your program. Note that as of 2026 PGWP eligibility has been tightened: field-of-study rules apply to college and diploma programs. So confirm your program still leads to a PGWP before you enrol.

2. Egitim Sistemi ve PAL2. Education System & PAL
Kanada'da yuksekogretim iki ana kurum tipi etrafinda sekillenir ve kaydolacagin her kurum bir "Designated Learning Institution" (DLI) olmalidir. DLI olmayan bir okuldan gelen kabul, study permit basvurusu icin gecerli degildir.
Universite vs. Kolej
Universiteler: Lisans, yuksek lisans ve doktora dereceleri verir; arastirma agirliklidir.
Kolejler: Diploma ve sertifika odaklidir, uygulamali ve is piyasasina donuk programlar sunar. Kolej programlarinda PGWP uygunlugu icin calisma alani sartlarina dikkat etmelisin.
PAL / TAL (Eyalet Onay Mektubu)
Cogu kolej ve lisans duzeyi basvuru, study permit ile birlikte bir Provincial/Territorial Attestation Letter (PAL/TAL) sunmak zorundadir. 1 Ocak 2026'dan itibaren, kamu DLI'sinde okuyan yuksek lisans ve doktora ogrencileri bu belgeden muaf tutuldu. 2026 PAL'i 31 Aralik 2026'ya kadar gecerlidir ve onceki yildan devredilemez.
Higher education in Canada is built around two main institution types, and any school you enrol in must be a "Designated Learning Institution" (DLI). An offer from a non-DLI school is not valid for a study permit application.
University vs. College
Universities: Award bachelor's, master's and doctoral degrees, with a research focus.
Colleges: Focus on diplomas and certificates with applied, career-oriented programs. For college programs, watch the field-of-study rules that govern PGWP eligibility.
PAL / TAL (Provincial Attestation Letter)
Most college and undergraduate applications must include a Provincial/Territorial Attestation Letter (PAL/TAL) with the study permit. As of January 1, 2026, master's and doctoral students at a public DLI are exempt from this letter. A 2026 PAL is valid until December 31, 2026 and cannot be carried over from an earlier year.
3. Study Permit Basvurusu3. Study Permit Application
Study permit basvurusunun temel rakamlari nettir: basvuru ucreti 150 CAD, biyometri 85 CAD (ilk kez verilecekse), yani toplam 235 CAD. Asil belirleyici olan ise mali yeterlilik kanitidir.
Mali Yeterlilik (Proof of Funds)
1 Eylul 2025'ten itibaren Quebec disindaki tek basvuru sahibi icin yasam gideri kaniti yillik 22.895 CAD'dir — ve bu tutar ogrenim ucreti ile ulasim masraflarindan ayridir, onlarin uzerine eklenir. Refakat eden her aile uyesi icin tutar artar.
Kabul edilen kanitlar arasinda son dort ayin banka ekstreleri, Guaranteed Investment Certificate (GIC), burs mektuplari veya sponsor beyani yer alir.
Quebec farki
Quebec'te okuyacaksan, IRCC'ye study permit basvurusundan once bir Quebec Acceptance Certificate (CAQ) almalisin. Quebec disinda ise dogrudan IRCC'ye basvurursun.
The core numbers of a study permit application are clear: the application fee is CAD 150 and biometrics are CAD 85 (if you have not given them before) — CAD 235 in total. The decisive factor is your proof of funds.
Proof of Funds
As of September 1, 2025, the living-cost proof for a single applicant outside Quebec is CAD 22,895 per year — and this amount is separate from, and in addition to, tuition and travel costs. It rises for each accompanying family member.
Acceptable proof includes the last four months of bank statements, a Guaranteed Investment Certificate (GIC), scholarship letters, or a sponsor's affidavit.
The Quebec difference
If you will study in Quebec, you must obtain a Quebec Acceptance Certificate (CAQ) before applying to IRCC for a study permit. Outside Quebec, you apply directly to IRCC.
