Hi!

I am Mostafa from Egypt, I am 15 and June'15 is my first IGCSE Year.

I want to know, can I have the opportunity to study in Canada after finishing the 3 IGCSE Years?

What would be the costs? Does superior students who get excellent grades have any advantages?

I would like to be an international student, I mean that I won't live in Canada for the rest of my life, only studying for university and then come back to Egypt.

Also, after finishing university, is there any job opportunities in Canada?

Please answer me!

Yes - having good grades gives you an advantage. You are more likely to be accepted by a good school in Canada and you are also more likely to be approved for a study permit by CIC.

International student tuition fees are quite high. If you are attending a university, you should plan to pay close to $20K for your tuition. To be approved for a study permit, will have to prove to CIC that you have enough money in the bank to cover first year tuition and also have an additional $10K to cover your living expenses.
