- All international students may work on campus
- Graduate or research work completed at facilities associated with your institution (such as hospitals) also meets the definition of “on-campus”
- In order to work off-campus, international students must obtain a work permit. This is granted if your employment is considered essential to your course of study
Potential Policy Change:
Please note that the Canadian government is now looking at the possibility to allow, under certain conditions, full-time international students to work part-time off-campus during the school term and full-time during the holidays. Please contact us for more details. In addition, you may request a work permit if you finish your degree in Canada and wish to work for a year in your field of study.
