Programs or courses lasting six months or less
Even though they are exempt from this requirement, students coming to study
in Québec in a program lasting six months or less may apply for a
CAQ for studies and then obtain a study permit.
Here are some of the advantages attached to the fact of holding a CAQ for
studies and a study permit:
- children of international students holding a CAQ for studies are exempt
from paying fees for primary and secondary instruction
- applications to renew a CAQ for studies and a study permit can be made
in Québec if the person intends to continue his or her studies
- holders of a study permit may work on campus without a work permit
if they are enrolled in a full-time program
- holders of a study permit can apply for a work permit to complete an
off-campus internship that is an integral part of their program of study
in Québec.
