Study Permit Approvals Plummet by 45% in 2024
According to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC), study permit approvals dropped to 45% in 2024 from 62% in 2023, exceeding the planned 35% reduction due to tightened caps and policies. An IDP survey indicates 79% of respondents urge Prime Minister Mark Carney’s government to restore Canada’s appeal as an educational destination, as perceptions shift toward viewing Canada as an immigration pathway. Enhanced student support and transparent policies are critical to reversing this trend. For study permit assistance, visit Go Canada Services’ Study Visa Services.
