International Scholar Matriculation and Visa Protocol
The International Student Matriculation Protocol is a comprehensive, multi-step process designed to ensure that international scholars are successfully enrolled and fully compliant with Canadian immigration requirements for studying in Toronto.
Phase I: Initial Application and Document Submission
The process commences with the completion of the online registration form. The applicant must submit the mandatory documentation, including a copy of their passport (picture and date of birth pages) and their official academic transcript.
Phase II: Issuance of Letter of Acceptance (LOA)
Upon successful review of the applicant’s documents and receipt of the advance payment, Toronto High School will formally issue an official Letter of Acceptance (LOA). This document is an essential, legally required component of the student’s application for a Canadian Study Permit (Student Visa). The school will also provide all other necessary admission documents to support the visa application.
Phase III: Visa Application and Study Permit Acquisition
The student uses the official LOA and supporting documents to apply for their Canadian Study Permit. This is a mandatory step for anyone intending to study for six months or longer. Our administrative team can provide referrals for immigration lawyers for optional assistance. It is imperative that the student follows all guidelines set by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC). In the event a student is unable to visit Canada due to visa rejection, or other factors, our flexible online courses offer a viable academic alternative to continue their studies remotely.
Phase IV: Enrollment and Orientation
Once the Study Permit is secured and all tuition fees are remitted, the student’s enrollment is finalized. International scholars will be provided with individualized counselling and guidance to assist in directing their academic path and adjusting to life in Toronto. Students can then access their online student portal to begin their course selection and academic planning.
