Study Permit

If you are an international student who has been admitted to one of the member colleges of the Toronto School of Theology, the college's registrar will send you a letter which you will then use to apply for a study permit. If you have any questions about the study permit, please contact your home college registrar. It is your responsibility to ensure that you have a study permit for the duration of your studies.

Centre for International Experience

The Centre for International Experience (CIE) provides a wealth of non-academic information for international students. Students can access information on immigration and health insurance, programs and events, scholarships, and much more.

Working in Canada as an International Student

International students may be eligible to work on-campus and/or off-campus while studying in Canada. Refer to the Government of Canada's Immigration and Citizenship website for detailed information. 

University Health Insurance Plan

Every person living in Canada must have coverage for primary healthcare services, such as hospital, physician, surgery, and medical testing. Ontario residents access the Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP), the mandatory government health insurance plan. International students access comparable coverage through the University Health Insurance Plan (UHIP), a not-for-profit insurance plan created by Ontario’s universities. UHIP is mandatory health care coverage for registered international students while studying in Canada. International students will be enrolled in UHIP automatically and premiums will be charged to your student account.

Visit the UHIP website or the Centre for International Experience (CIE) website for more information.
