Many international students refused Canadian study permits may actually have enough money to support their education. The problem is often how they present their financial documents, according to a new ApplyBoard analysis of 2,812 Canadian study permit decisions.
The study, which examined 1,370 refusal letters, found that 47% of refusals were linked to inadequate proof of funds, making financial paperwork—not necessarily a lack of money—the biggest reason applications were rejected.
