WHY CANADA
A top destination for international students.
Canada is one of the top international student destinations in the world. Each year, hundreds of thousands of students choose Canada to pursue their studies. Here are the top five reasons why Nigerian students should consider Canada for a world-class education.
THE ADVANTAGES
5 Reasons to Study in Canada
A Quality Education
A Canadian degree is widely recognised as equal to one from the United States, Australia or the United Kingdom. Canadian universities consistently rank in international league tables — in fact, three Canadian universities have placed in the world’s top 50. From universities and colleges to vocational schools, a Canadian education is truly world-class.
Affordable Tuition & Living
Compared to other top destinations, Canada offers significantly lower tuition fees and cost of living. International undergraduate tuition averaged USD 16,746 in Canada — well below the US (USD 24,914), Australia (USD 24,081) and the UK (USD 21,365). Combined with reasonable living costs, Canada is one of the most affordable choices.
Work While You Study
International students in Canada are eligible to work up to 20 hours per week during school terms and full-time (30 hours/week) during scheduled breaks — without needing a separate work permit. Earn while you learn, on or off campus, as indicated by your study permit.
Safety & Stability
Canada is consistently ranked among the most peaceful countries in the world. Protected by oceans on three sides and sharing a border only with the US, Canada is a democratic, tolerant and non-discriminatory society where the rights of all residents are protected by the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

IMMIGRATION OPTIONS
Pathways to permanent residency.
When you study abroad, you usually receive temporary status that ends when your programme finishes. Canada, however, offers many programmes designed to help international students transition to permanent residence. The Post-Graduation Work Permit lets graduates stay and gain valuable Canadian work experience.
Most provinces run Provincial Nominee streams for applicants studying or working locally, and federal economic immigration streams award additional points for Canadian study and work experience. More than half of international students plan to apply for Canadian permanent residence after graduation.
BONUS
Economic opportunities that open doors.
Canada is one of the largest economies in the world with vast opportunities for graduates. As a student you can network with leaders in your field and gain industry experience with leading Canadian companies — during or after your studies.
- Boost your global employability with Canadian qualifications
- Improve English or French proficiency for international careers
- Access PR pathways tailored to international students
