Students coming from post-secondary institutions who currently have a bilateral student exchange agreement must have their application submitted to TRU Study Abroad by their home university. Applications cannot be sent directly by the student.

Please note:

Exchange students planning to study for six months or less do not require a study permit.  However, please be aware that if you come for one semester, and then wish to stay longer, the Canadian government will not permit an extension.  Put another way, if you come for one semester without  a study permit, you must leave at the end of that semester.

In addition, students from some countries will require a visa to enter Canada.

Please refer to the Canadian Immigration website for complete details.
