My concern would be the part where it says it needs Proof of immigration status in Canada...if you are just here on a visitors visa, you won't qualify...I would call and inquire more into the program...the courses seem to cover all of the information but it won't be as in depth...you can always call the PSWNO...there contact info is here:

You won't be able to do the clinical portions without having the proper student visa, or work visa would be my assumption....have you spoken with the people at this program about whether you will qualify to even take the program with your status the way it is???
I would definitely look into it more before paying those fees!!!

Yeah I had talked to them about registering and if I would need to have a student visa. She said since the course is under 6 months, I do not need to obtain a student visa, just a paper saying that I am there on a visitor visa, do you know if they would give me one when I land and have to go through customs and everything?
