Help!

[JS93]

Gonna keep this short.. I was arrested last year but was released with no further action whatsoever. I was not charged or cautioned. I am applying for my study permit at the moment and was wondering if this would prevent me from being accepted into Canada!
Thanks in advance

I'm from the UK if that makes any difference!

Get a police certificate, you'll be required to include it with your study permit application anyway.

Here is how you can get one: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/security/police-cert/europe/united-kingdom.asp

I didn't think I needed a police certificate as I'm not looking for permanent residence?

A police certificate is required for study permit applications when applying on paper. If you're applying online, you will be asked to answer a couple of eligibility questions and then you will get a customized checklist of the documents that you have to upload. In some cases after the medical exam, they can request for additional documents, which in some cases is a police certificate. So either way, i'ts a good idea to get one.
