Studying in Canada is a dream for many international students. When it comes to individuals with Masters, Bachelors and or double degrees: Question arises Is study a good fit for me to migrate to Canada?
Well.. the answer is Yes, if a right procedure is followed. Canada always welcomes students with great academic profiles along with work experience.
Here are some factors to be kept in mind when you think of coming to Canada as a mature student.
- Age Factor: There is no age to educate yourself and to start your dream education to accomplish your goals. Studying at a mature age after some industry experience simply sets a belief on visa officer that your intention is solely to polish your skills and specialize yourself in the chosen study.
- Course Selection: Picking a right course for your studies in Canada is one of the most important factors. Course selection needs to be aligned with your past education and your work experience. Additionally, the program level of chosen study plays a vital role. After completion of your post-graduation and post-secondary education in one’s home country, you are expected to choose Post graduation Certificate or diploma programs, or master’s degree.
For an instance- a student with bachelor’s in science with Teaching background has planned to come to Canada and study an Undergraduate Diploma in Early Childhood Education is not an ideal student in Visa officer’s point of view and this profile is likely to get a refusal as a result.
Super visa or Visitor visa? Which option is better for your parents to visit you in Canada?- Proficiency in English: It is very well known that a score of 6.0 each in IELTS makes you eligible to study in Canada. But when it comes to a mature student’s profile. A profile with a higher score in IELTS stands out to a Visa officer. If your understanding of English language is at an advanced level, chances of you getting student visa increases.
- Future Plan: Another important aspect is to have a clear future plan. You need to have a plan that once you complete your education in Canada; what you will do in your home country? For an instance: Job or Business. If you have secured job offer from your current employer/future employer or you have concrete business plan, it is highly likely that your visa will be approved.
