8. Letter of explanation
Even if you do not require a study permit, you may wish to apply for one. If you decide that you want to continue your studies in another program after you complete your short-term course (less than six months), you should include a letter that explains why you are applying. The letter will inform the visa officer that you understand your options. For example, the letter might say:
'Dear Visa Officer,
I would like to have a study permit for ten-week course in English because I would like to apply to a Canadian-university program after I finish the course.'
