We at OCMT can’t wait to meet you and help make your stay in Canada safe and memorable!
Canada has one of the best and most respected education systems in the world. Every year, thousands of students from other countries pursue their educational goals in Canada.
With new ways to gain valuable Canadian work experience during and after your studies, the advantages of studying in Canada are great.
There are also permanent immigration options for international students who have graduated from post-secondary programs in Canada.
If you wish to take academic, professional or vocational training at a university, college or other educational institution in Canada, you will need a study permit before you enter Canada.
There are a few exceptions to this rule. For example, you do not need a permit if you are enrolling in a short-term course or program of six months or less. However, if you think you might study for more than six months, it is a good idea to obtain a study permit before you arrive.
OCMT is currently accepting applications from international students into all the programs.

No one intends to become ill while traveling or studying abroad, but the wise traveler plans ahead. It is best to completely understand the health care system of whatever country you’re in; Canada’s health care system is no exception.
All international students who study in Canada are required to have health insurance. Medical coverage available to international students varies from province to province. In provinces where international students are not covered under provincial health care plans, you will have to make arrangements for private health insurance coverage. All international students coming to study at the Ontario College of Management and Technology are encouraged to have their health coverage. You may also subscribe to volume coverage (at cost) available through our third-party insurance firms.
It is expedient that students purchase their health insurance policy prior to the commencement of their studies at the Ontario College of Management and Technology.
It is an offense against the Canadian Immigration law for any student to violate the stipulation on their study permits by engaging in unlawful activities that contravenes the purpose of their stay in Canada.
