Change University after getting visa

I got accepted into a 2 years Ontario Diploma program. I requested and got my visa. I literally have my passport with visa ready to travel.

BUT.... I changed my mind after being accepted into another 1 year Master program.

Do I need to get a new visa or just change my "learning institution" on the system before arrival?

Thanks

You wouldn't need to apply for study permit again for any post-secondary education. You just have to update new DLI under MyCIC account. You will continue with your current visa as long as it is valid.

Once you arrive in Canada, go to your local CIC office and check for any other requirements.
