> Citizenship and Immigration Canada is introducing a new policy that will
> allow international students engaging in post-secondary studies in Canada
to
> transfer between different types of institutions (both public and private)
> without applying for a change to the conditions of their study permit.
> The purpose for this change is to reduce the number of transactions that
> genuine international students must undertake with Citizenship and
> Immigration Canada after they have arrived in Canada. This new policy
does
> not alter the initial assessment of study permit applications.
> Citizenship and Immigration Canada is committed to working with the
> education community in Canada to make changes that improve our service to
> students. We ask for your assistance in ensuring that the attached
document
> is circulated to your members for distribution to international students.
> The information in this message will also be posted on our website in the
> near future at www.cic.gc.ca.
