International Pre-Arrival Resources


IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR INTERNATIONAL APPLICANTS
Due to recent IRCC changes, please see Updated International Application Process.

November 1, 2024, Update: On September 18, 2024, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) announced changes to the International Student Program. We are currently matching the federal Classification of Instructional Programs (CIP) Codes to our programs to see which fields of study will still qualify for a Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP). Once we confirm the list of eligible programs, we will share more information about the application process.

Thank you for your patience as we navigate these changes.

We are so excited that you will be joining one of our six beautiful NBCC campus communities! We also know that there is a lot of preparation that needs to happen between now and then. Please be sure to attend all pre-arrival webinars and review the information on this webpage thoroughly to ensure that you are prepared for a successful start to your time in Canada and your NBCC studies.

Through our pre-arrival webinars, we want to provide you with the opportunity to learn more about the College, student support services, entering Canada, health insurance, and more. Below, you will find registration information, other helpful video content, and resources to ensure that you are prepared to begin your studies at NBCC and in Canada.

We are looking forward to welcoming you to campus!
