Arranging your training at The Canadian Flight Academy is easy however there are regulations which must be adhered to if you will be studying with us in Canada.

Since you will be visiting and studying in Canada you should posess the following documents:

• "A Canada Visitors Visa" - Unless you are exempt by "Schedule 11" of immigration Canada regulations
• "A Student Authorization Document" - Obtained at a Canadian Embassy, High Commission or Canadian Consulate and will declare the time frame in which you may study in Canada. It may also place restrictions or conditions on your stay in Canada.
• 
  In order to obtain the Student Authorization you must posess the following documents:
  1. A Valid Passport
  2. An original "Letter of Acceptance" issued by a recognized Canadian Educational Institution (i.e. University, College etc.), or a Professional or Vocational Training Institution.
  3. Medical Clearance (if necessary)
  4. Evidence of the ability to pay tuition, return transportation, living and studying expenses while in Canada.
  5. A satisfactory claim that you are a visitor to Canada and that you only intend to stay temporarily in the country.

The time that is necessary to properly process a Student Authorization application does vary from post to post depending on the amount of work the particular post encounters.
The Ministry of External Affairs often requests that these applications are submitted to the Ministry well in advance of the beginning of the course.
Once in Canada you will be directed to Immigration Canada to have your passport stamped and your Student Authorization completed. 

You will be escorted by a Canadian Flight Academy representative from Pearson International Airport and driven to your local accomodations. After the course has been completed,
you will be escorted back to the airport prior to your trip home. You may also apply, while in Canada, to change or cancel your terms of admission by visiting the local Canada
Immigration Centre. This will give you an opportunity to extend your Student Authorization should you require more time to complete your course.

We strongly advise that you attain some form of health insurance such as "Blue Cross" or a form of health insurance from your own country which will cover any emergency medical expenses while abroad. This is an extra, but sometimes useful, expense that you will not regret.
