50,000 International Students in Canada Did Not Attend College

BY Connect Newsroom, Jan 15, 2025 5:54 PM - REPORT AN ERROR

Last year, the Canadian government mandated institutions to report data on international students to the IRCC to identify fraudulent students and suspicious schools

A report reveals that about 50,000 international students in Canada, including 20,000 from India, did not attend college despite holding study permits. This data was collected from colleges and universities and shared with the Immigration Department in March and April 2024.

Last year, the Canadian government mandated institutions to report data on international students to the IRCC to identify fraudulent students and suspicious schools. Universities and colleges must now report twice annually to confirm how many international students are actively attending classes as required by their permits.

Experts are recommending that international students be required to pay tuition fees before arriving in Canada to prevent misuse of the system.
