CANADA STUDY VISA 

Students must first enroll and be accepted to study at a Canadian educational institution before they may apply for a Canada Student Visa (study permit). Depending on their citizenship or place of residence, students may also require an eTA (electronic travel authorization) and/or a Temporary Resident Visa in addition to their study permit.
Who is eligible to apply for a student visa to Canada?
A Canada Student Visa can be applied for by international students who have applied to and been accepted into a Designated Learning Institution (DLI) in order to enter the country and finish the particular program for which they have been accepted. Before submitting your application for a student visa to study in Canada, you must have received an acceptance letter from the approved institution that you intend to attend.
