How admission to George Brown College works, step by step:

1. Choose a program (9–12 months ahead). Decide on the field — business, tourism, hospitality and design — and the level: bachelor’s or master’s. Programs differ in requirements, deadlines and fees.
2. Language certificate. In English or French, depending on the province and program.
3. Application. Applications are submitted online; once reviewed, the university sends an offer — with it you can plan finances and housing.
4. Student visa and relocation. After the offer, a student visa or residence permit for Canada is arranged. We handle this stage end to end. Keep in mind: study permits for Russian citizens are approved noticeably more strictly — prepare a strong financial file. For passports of Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, Canada remains one of the most reliable premium routes.
