Some DLIs are reopening to international students

DLIs with a COVID-19 readiness plan approved by their province or territory are able to reopen to international students who are currently outside Canada.

See the list of DLIs with approved COVID-19 readiness plans.

If you plan to come to Canada as an international student after October 20, 2020:

  • Your DLI must be on the list of DLIs with approved COVID-19 readiness plans before you travel to Canada.

  • You must have a valid study permit, or have been approved for a study permit.

This applies to all international students, whether you’re travelling from the United States or from any other country.

This change doesn’t affect study permit holders already in Canada.

If you’re already in Canada, you can continue studying at any DLI. If you leave Canada, you may not be able to return if your DLI doesn’t have a COVID-19 readiness plan approved by the province or territory in which you live.
