Admissions and Confirmation of Registration

International student enrollment at St. Clair College is offered on a first-come, first-serve basis.

In order to complete your registration, it is essential that the applicant follows these steps:

1. After receiving a Letter of Acceptance (LOA), the applicant is required to pay the full Confirmation Fee noted on the LOA.
2. After the Confirmation Fee is paid, a Tuition Payment Receipt will be provided.
3. After receipt of the confirmation fee, a Provincial Attestation Letter (PAL) will be provided.
4. The final step for the international applicant to secure their seat in the specified program and semester is to upload a valid Canadian study visa through the International OCAS portal.

Uploaded Canadian study visas received after the maximum number of seats available for that program is surpassed will result in the LOA being revoked and the confirmation fee returned.

Confirmation fees received after the due date or once the maximum number of seats available for that program is surpassed may be subject to a return of payment.
