About Canada
As per research, Indian students are rated second in terms of the total number of students that travel to Canada each year to pursue higher education. A survey published on November 7, 2014 states that 13,758 Indian students have received student visas for Canada. Aside from that, thousands of individuals immigrate from all over the world to receive a world-class education and gain experience working with people from various cultural backgrounds.
Not only are the students eager to study in Canada, but the Canadian government is anticipating a double increase in the number of international students as well.
