If I am a temporary resident, do I need a study permit to enroll in your programs?
At CESL, we accept students from all immigration categories (citizens, permanent residents, work permit holders, working holiday visa holders, refugee claimants). One does not require a study permit to take our programs. CELS is a private language school, and we don’t offer degree or diploma programs at a post-secondary level, for which a study permit is typically required.
