Frequently asked questions
Do I need a Provincial Attestation Letter (PAL)?
Many study permit applicants now need a PAL or TAL from the province, though requirements vary by applicant and program. See our PAL guide for details.
How much money do I need to show?
You generally need to show enough funds for your tuition and living costs, documented clearly and credibly. See proof of funds.
Can a study permit lead to permanent residence?
A study permit is temporary, but graduates who qualify may access work permits and PR pathways. Outcomes depend on your individual profile and eligibility.
Does MAK arrange admission or recruit for schools?
No. We are licensed Canadian immigration consultants (RCICs), not recruiters. We advise on your study permit and immigration options.
