Non-Canadian Students Studying in Canada
Non-Canadian students are those who do not hold Canadian citizenship
or are not permanent residents of Canada. In the case of a dispute
over an individual's status within Canada, Citizenship and
Immigration Canada regulations will apply. Refer to www.cic.gc.ca or Citizenship

Non-Canadian students who are living temporarily in Canada and
studying for a period of 6 months or less, may study with AU

in the process of applying for their study authorizations may
be admitted to programs and register for their first 6 months of
course
work. However,
in order to continue their programs of study within Canada, they
will be required to present a copy of their valid study authorizations.
In order for non-Canadian students who are living temporarily
in Canada to be officially enrolled in a program of study,

and admitted without a valid study authorization will not
be permitted
to extend
contracts beyond a

to continue beyond
the
6-month period if they either leave Canada or they provide
AU a copy of their valid study authorization.
