Hi all,

I want to know that as New Immigrants in Canada, if any (Applicant or dependent) want to further study (to upgrade qualification) in any University / College then they have to pay domestic fee or international student fee?

In Canada is there any government funded courses (mean student have to pay very nominal fee to get the certificate or degree)?

Thanks

Hi australiatocanada
Permanent residents pay domestic fee. Sorry to ask, i saw your Noc as 6242. I have the same Noc. Do you have an idea how many points are awarded for diploma in hospitality management (commercial cookery).You might know here it is of 2 years. So my qualifications are year 12 + 2 year diploma.

harry_aussie,

Regarding you education points, sorry to say but i have no idea, i got 25 full points because i have master's degree and on top of that have other qualifications, so i got straight 25 point in education.....ask from seniors in this forum.
