Hi,

1. With a valid study permit/TRV, you can enter/land anywhere in Canada.

2. Show only you visa approved LOA at Port of entry. If required, change course/school once you enter Canada.

Yes. You may enter Canada from any point of departure and through any point of entry (airport or border crossing).

Hi,

No need of a new study permit in case you change school/course.

With a valid study permit, you are free to change school/course (under certain conditions)


*I am already in Canada and
have a valid study permit. I
would like to change my school or program of studies. What do I need to do to modify my study permit?

If you are changing schools
and/or your program of
study but remain at the
same level (e.g., secondary
level), you do not need to
modify your study permit. However, if for example
you are a student at the
primary school level and
you are moving on to
secondary school, or if you
are a secondary school student and you are
moving on to post-
secondary studies, or if you are moving from post-
secondary studies to
secondary studies, you need to submit an application to modify your study permit at the Citizenship and Immigration Canada Case
Processing Centre in Vegreville, Alberta.
