Yes, student visas are currently open for Bachelor of Arts (BA) programs in both the USA and Canada.
- USA: You can apply for the F-1 student visa. This requires an acceptance letter from a SEVP-certified institution and Form I-20.
- Canada: You can apply for a Study Permit with a letter of acceptance from a Designated Learning Institution (DLI).
Visa policies and processing times are subject to change, so apply as early as possible before your intended intake. If you need help with your application, please connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
