Why Choose Canada?

Why Bangladeshi Students Choose Canada for Higher Education in 2026

Canada is universally recognized as the gold standard for international students seeking world-class education paired with transparent permanent residency (PR) pathways. Under current 2026 IRCC regulations, all graduates of Master's degree programs (even 1-year or 16-month durations) qualify for a full 3-year Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP).

Additionally, Master's and Doctoral students are 100% EXEMPT from the Provincial Attestation Letter (PAL) requirements, receiving expedited processing directly through Canadian Designated Learning Institutions (DLIs). International students can work up to 24 hours per week off-campus during academic terms.

From our Bogura office, Bdesh to Bidesh assists Bangladeshi students with DLI admission, PAL verification, Scotiabank/CIBC GIC account creation, upfront IOM Dhaka medical examinations, and robust financial source documentation for a documented 98% visa success rate.
