Canada sets a study permit cap at 292,000 for international students, addressing “unsustainable growth” in student intake. This move by Immigration Minister Marc Miller aims to improve the system’s integrity.π¨π¦
Originally, Canada planned to reduce study permits to 360,000 over two years, cutting by 35%. π
This cap affects application numbers, not direct visa issuance, showing a strategic approach by the Immigration Refugees and
Citizenship Canada (IRCC). π¨π¦
The cap excludes primary, secondary, masterβs, and doctorate students. With these exemptions and a 60% approval rate, the cap should align with permit approvals.π
