Methodology
How this report was prepared
This report uses published Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada study permit-holder data by designated learning institution and the year in which study permits became effective.
Historical totals, peer rankings, shares, annual changes, suppression counts, and analytical findings are derived from the same normalized records used by the interactive Study Permit Explorer.
Important note
Published totals may exclude suppressed values. Institution names are preserved from the official IRCC source and may identify campuses or locations separately.
