Useful starting figures. Your programme, city and applicant category determine your actual costs.
2023/24
International programme enrolments in public colleges and universities at the fall institutional snapshot.
288,801 college + 284,160 university enrolments. A student in multiple programmes can be counted more than once; not study-permit holders or a 2026 headcount.
This is not a count of new arrivals and is not directly comparable with every other country.
Dated sector average, not an individual quote; programme and province vary.
Cost reference checked 2026-09-22Not an average or maximum. The page also discusses immigration funding; consult the separate current IRCC rules instead of using this rounded guide as a visa threshold.
Cost reference checked 2026-09-22Build my budget →Student count checked 2026-09-22; cost dates are shown beside each figure. Observation years remain as published. Planning costs are not visa financial requirements. Named university or city examples are labelled separately from national ranges.
Official starting points and application framework; not a complete university or programme catalogue.
Select English in the language filter; bilingual is a separate option. The finder warns that updates are paused and data reflect July 2026. Reconfirm programme, language, fees and availability with the institution.

Check the school’s entry requirements and application process. Your qualification assessment, subject prerequisites, language evidence and document rules depend on the institution and programme.
Most foreign nationals need a study permit. Use IRCC’s current guidance for your circumstances and verify that the institution is a designated learning institution.
Your course admission decision and immigration application have separate requirements. Track offer conditions, required fee payments and outstanding documents in one checklist.
Relative planning stages; institution and applicant-specific deadlines must be checked.
Record course, scholarship, test, document, deposit and visa dates separately. No individual 2027 intake deadline is confirmed by this overview.
These are research links, not a statement that every institution accepts or requires each exam. Check the exact programme, intake, test version, minimum component scores and visa rules.
