WHAT’S INSIDE GENERAL INFORMATION

Land Acknowledgement We acknowledge that we are in the territory of the Anishinaabe peoples of northwestern Ontario. We work and live on the lands of Fort William First Nation, a signatory to the Robinson-Superior Treaty of 1850. We honour their enduring connection to this land and commit to working together for a sustainable future.

We also recognize that our seven regional campuses cross over multiple traditional and Treaty Territories, the historical contributions of Métis and Inuit Peoples, and that our students come to study from all over Turtle Island.

For many International students, learning in Canada includes learning about the histories, cultures, rights and contributions of First Nations, Inuit and Métis Peoples. It also includes understanding the impacts of colonization, including the residential school system and the ongoing work of reconciliation. The Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada documented the lasting harms caused by these policies and called on all Canadians and institutions to take action toward a more just and respectful future.

At Confederation College, we are committed to building meaningful relationships with Indigenous communities, supporting Indigenous student success and creating opportunities for all students to learn from Indigenous perspectives, knowledges and ways of being. We invite every member of our college community to join us in this journey of learning, respect, and reconciliation.

International Questions INFORMATION AND REQUIREMENTS

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

1. English language proficiency

How do I know what programs are offered in what intake?

English requirements vary by program and we accept several academic tests. Some countries are exempt from a test requirement, however an English course with grade is still required.

2. Post-graduation work permit eligibility In 2024, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) changed several immigration rules and policies, including limiting the programs in which international students would be eligible to apply for a post-graduation work permit upon graduation.

Check which programs are currently PGWP eligible.

3. Wait lists A program becomes waitlisted when the number of offers has been sent out for the allotted seat available – this varies by program. Applications are still accepted, but a letter of offer is not guaranteed. There is no set timeline to be chosen from the waitlist, as it depends on whether applicants accept their offer or withdraw.

For more details:

22

You can review what programs are currently open and accepting applications. If the program you want is not showing up, that means it is not available in the chosen term. Not every program runs every intake.

Do I need a Provincial Attestation Letter (PAL)?

Yes, all students require a PAL when they are applying for a study permit. The PAL will be requested on your behalf once the first payment is made, according to the fee structure on your offer.

It will be uploaded directly to your OCAS profile.

The program I want is not listed in the choices in OCAS. Why not?

Some programs are not open to international students due to various reasons, including being oversubscribed, international applicants not being able to work in the field upon graduation due to policies around certifications, study permit limitations, or PGWP eligibility. If there is a program that is not listed due to PGWP eligibility but you wish to study it regardless, please contact us directly.

I was waitlisted for my chosen program/intake. Will I automatically get admission to the next available intake?

No, we do not automatically push offers for another intake as we do not want to assume your academic plan. Students have three program choices on one application and if you have not used up all three options, you can add another intake choice to express your interest.
