It is quite tragic... I have been considering Canada for a while but the truth is that there is no easy way into Canada for us. I am not saying it is impossible, but the risk of failure is high with no guarantees of a temporary stay. For some of us it might be worth to try. I just want you guys to be realistic with this option. |

The process will most likely require you to go back to your home country

You will have to invest significantly with no guarantee that you can ultimately become a pr after your studies.

Graduate school is not funded the way it is in the U.S. You must pay full tution. For example, a viable option for me would be to apply for a PHD program for which I need to risk it all an possibly need 50K dollars. For most people here, that is not an option. Applying for a study permit will require you to leave the U.S. Not to mention you must have the education credentials for such PhD program. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/study/work-postgrad.asp |
I had trouble finding sources that specified 'unlawful work experience' does not count. Do you have any of those sources?
Other than that, I don't think it'd be terribly hard to learn some French and rank high on their list.
