Because of the time required to complete the immigration formalities and obtain the necessary documentation, applicants are advised that it may take several months from admission to the receipt of a student visa or study permit/authorization. International students should allow up to six months (24 weeks) for their paperwork for visa applications. Admission entry points can be delayed once a visa is secured.
