Have you ever wondered what were study visa approval rates in 2021. We requested IRCC via an ATIP (Access to Information and Privacy) to provide latest data on total number of study visa applications (including extensions) processed from January 2021 – October 2021, by country of citizenship and destination province. As per IRCC, data after October 2021 is not yet available.
This ATIP provided aforementioned data for all the countries around the world. However, we compiled the data for 30 countries where INC – Immigration News Canada has presence of more than 1,000 website visitors. Below are the province-wise tables in alphabetical order with data on country-wise approval rates.
