Maybe you could, but with a website under construction, the face of your business does not inspire confidence.

Wait till you're a PR so you pay lower fees. If you study before your permanent residency you may pay international student rates.

Hello,

I am not sure if it is possible and I doubt it considering that their are limitations to taking courses more than 6 months before becoming a permanent resident. I will like to know others views if this is the case.


After becoming a permenent resident, you can apply to colleges for practical nursing or universities for bachelors degree in nursing.

Thank you,

I was in this situation before. I was advised to wait until I get my PR before attending university/college in Canada. However, you can have your credentials assessed then apply in your university/college of your choice sometime in December if you are sure that you will get your PR before September. This is just based on my experience. Otherwise, you will have to pay higher fees. I hope this helps.
