You will need a study permit or a temporary resident visa to study at a post-secondary institution in Saskatchewan, Canada.
As of January 22, 2024, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada requires most students to include a provincial attestation letter (PAL) from the province or territory where they plan to study when applying for their study permit. Saskatchewan has been allocated just over 15,000 PALs to distribute to future international students in 2024.
Before you can apply for a study permit, you must have an official letter of acceptance (LOA) from a designated learning institution in Saskatchewan as well as a provincial attestation letter (PAL) from the Government of Saskatchewan. You will receive these documents separately. Graduate students and those seeking an extension to an existing study permit do not require a PAL. Find more information on exemptions on the Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada webpage.
Visit Get a Study Permit on Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship and Immigration Canada's website for more details on how to apply for a study permit to Saskatchewan.
A study permit is not needed if you want to take short-term courses or programs of study of six months or less. You may enrol in short-term programs at any learning institution, regardless of whether or not it is designated. For more information, please visit the Government of Canada's Study in Canada section.
The post-secondary institution will inform you by email whether or not you have been accepted. If you are accepted, the institution will send an official letter of acceptance (LOA). The institution will also notify the Ministry of Advanced Education, and the Government of Saskatchewan will then issue a Provincial Attestation Letter (PAL) to each student.
As of January 22, 2024, most undergraduate international students must include a provincial attestation letter (PAL) from the province or territory where they plan to pursue their post-secondary studies. Some exceptions apply. Saskatchewan was initially allocated approximately 12,000 PALs to distribute to future international students in 2024. Immigration, Citizenship and Refugees Canada has provided a one-time additional allocation of 3,000 for 2024, bringing Saskatchewan's total PAL allocation to just over 15,000.
Students must first apply to the institution of their choice and receive a letter of acceptance (LOA). If you have been accepted, the institution will notify the Ministry of Advanced Education of your acceptance. The Government of Saskatchewan will then issue a PAL through an automated system, which will notify students when the PAL available. Watch for an email from MyCredsTM (noreply@mycreds.ca) and follow the instructions to download your unique PAL to your device. Visit the MyCredsTM FAQ webpage for help logging in and downloading your PAL, and contact your institutions if you have any questions.
You will be able to apply for your study permit to Saskatchewan once you have an LOA from the institution of your choice and the corresponding PAL. Visit the Government of Canada’s study permit web page for study permit application instructions.
