Studying in Canada: questions
What is a Provincial Attestation Letter (PAL)?
Most new study permit applicants need a PAL from the province where they will study. Your institution helps issue it after you accept the offer, and we track it for you.
Should I choose a college or a university in Canada?
It depends on your goals and budget. Colleges are shorter and job-focused; universities suit research and academic careers. We compare both for your profile, including PGWP eligibility.
When should I apply to study in Canada?
Start 10 to 12 months before your intake. Popular courses fill early, so we build your timeline backwards from the deadlines of each university on your list.
Can Horizon help with a Canada student visa?
Yes. We prepare a document checklist from the official requirements, help you plan your proof of funds and practise any interview questions. The visa decision itself always rests with the Canada authorities.
