Is it better to avoid Masters of Education courses abroad due to high chances of visa rejection in Canada for a Master's?
17 Jun 2026 · Answered by Komal Yadav · 1 min read
It depends. Visa rejection rates for study abroad, especially in Canada, have increased significantly - up to 62% overall and as high as 80% for Indian applicants in 2025. This is mainly due to stricter immigration policies and higher financial proof requirements (subject to change).
If you are considering a Master's in Education abroad:
- Be prepared for tougher visa scrutiny, especially in Canada.
- Alternative countries with more stable visa approval rates may offer better chances.
- A strong, well-documented application is essential.
