Then, you can start arranging travel to Canada and begin to organize where you'll be living while attending Mohawk College. Read more about how to apply for a Study Permit and Visa.

Tip

We encourage you to begin the Study Permit application process as soon as you receive your Acceptance Package, which includes your Letter of Acceptance, Provincial Attestation Letter (PAL), and Record of Payment.
