Frequently asked questions

How does the Passage Financing Model work?

Elite Study Group's financing partner covers your tuition and verified living costs upfront. Repayment begins only after graduation and successful employment placement, structured as a percentage of income over a fixed term.

Can my family join me in Canada?

Spouses of full-time students at eligible institutions can apply for an open work permit, and dependent children can study in Canadian public schools at no additional tuition.

Does this pathway lead to permanent residency?

Yes. Graduates qualify for a Post-Graduation Work Permit (up to 3 years), and Canadian work experience supports applications under Express Entry, the Canadian Experience Class, and most Provincial Nominee Programs.

What is the typical timeline from application to arrival?

Most applicants complete the full cycle in 4 to 7 months, depending on the intake (January, May or September) and visa processing times for their country of residence.
