Many Indian students are reconsidering their plans to study in Canada.
The Canadian government recently announced a 10% reduction in international student permits, which has caused concern among prospective students. Additionally, issues like the high cost of living and a challenging job market are making Canada less attractive.
Some students are now looking at alternative destinations like Australia, where they perceive better opportunities. It’s a tough situation for those who had their hearts set on studying in Canada.
The trend of declining interest in Canada among Indian students is intensifying.
Several factors are contributing to this shift:
