#1安全性、稳定性是国际生 选择加拿大的主要原因
加拿大一直是世界上最安全的国家之一。然而这份调查显示，“安全性”已超过加拿大教育质量的声誉，成为学生选择在加拿大学习的决定因素。近80%的人表示“安全性”是前往加拿大留学最大的吸引力。
Canada consistently ranks among the safest countries in the world. However, this is the first time safety has outranked educational reputation as the deciding factor for students choosing to study in Canada, with close to 80% saying it was the biggest draw.
70%的学生将加拿大教育机构的声誉列为第二考虑因素。此外，超过一半的受访者表示，加拿大的宽容、多样性和包容性使其成为一个有吸引力的学习场所。近40%的人表示选择加拿大是因为他们希望在完成学业后成为永久居民。
The reputation of Canada’s educational institutions ranked as the second consideration for 70% of students. Additionally, over half of respondents said Canada’s tolerance, diversity and inclusivity made it attractive as place to study. Nearly 40% reported choosing Canada because they hope to become permanent residents once they have completed their studies.
#2 约三分之一的学生进行校外打工
大多数学生表示，通过父母、祖父母和其他家庭成员的支持，使他们能够负担得起在加拿大学习的费用。大约三分之一的学生报告说，除了家庭支持外，他们还依赖校外工作和个人储蓄。
Most students reported being able to afford to study in Canada through the support of parents, grandparents, and other family members. Approximately one third of students reported relying on off campus work and personal savings in addition to family support.
国际学生可以打工吗？
在加拿大移民局指定的专上院校(designated leaning institution)注册的学生无需获得工作许可即可工作，需要符合的条件包括：
Students who are enrolled in a designated learning institution (DLI) can work without obtaining a work permit. To be eligible:
· 必须是一名参加6个月以上学习项目且会获得毕业证或文凭的全日制学生；
· You must be a full-time student in a program that is at least six months long and leads to a certificate or diploma.
· 已经开始进行学习；
· You have already started studying
· 有社会保险号码；
· You have a Social Insurance Number
在整个学期中，学生每周最多工作20个小时。在放假期间，可以全职工作。
Students may work up to 20 hours a week throughout the academic semester. During academic breaks, students are allowed to work full-time.
# 3“住宿”被列为最大难题
参与调查的学生表示，他们在加拿大生活和学习的经历总体上是积极的。他们形容他们到达加拿大学习、生活的过程相对容易，其中解决住宿问题被列为最大的困难。
Students reported that their experiences living and studying in Canada have been positive overall. They describe their initial arrival in coming to Canada as relatively easy, with finding accommodation listed as the biggest difficulty.
获得教育机构的录取通知书被认为是到加拿大留学最容易的部分，但有39%的人提到了获得学生签证有一定困难。
39% did cite some difficulty in obtaining a study visa, getting a letter of acceptance from an educational institution was ranked as the easiest part of coming to Canada.
同时，学生们报告说，他们感觉能够与其他国际学生或来自同一国家的学生建立联系并形成社区感。然而，他们在这些区域之外形成联系确实遇到了一些困难。
Students reported feeling able to form connections and a sense of community with other international students or those who are from the same country. However, they do experience some difficulty forming connections outside of these areas.
#4 大多数受访者希望获得加拿大永久居民身份
当被问及毕业后计划时，大多数受访者表示，他们希望获得永久居民身份并留在加拿大。其他人则表示，他们想在回国之在加拿大先工作几年以获得工作经验。
When asked about post-graduation plans, most respondents indicated that they planned to pursue permanent resident status and remain in Canada. Others said they would gain work experience in Canada for a few years before returning to their home countries.
毕业后的工作许可
超过70%的学生表示，他们计划在完成学业后申请毕业后工作许可证（PGWP）。获得PGWP后可开始在加拿大工作，在加拿大的工作经验可用于永久居留申请。
More than 70% of students said they planned to apply for a Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) when they complete their studies. Getting a PGWP allows students to gain valuable Canadian work experience that can count toward an application for permanent residence.
PGWP是一种开放式工作许可证，允许毕业的学生在加拿大的任何职业中为任何雇主工作。许可证的期限取决于学生的课程时间，最长为三年。少于八个月的计划不符合PGWP的资格，两年或两年以上的计划最多可符合三年的资格。
A PGWP is an open work permit that allows recent grads to work for any employer, in any occupation in Canada. The length of the permit depends on how long your program was, up to a maximum of three years. Programs less than eight months long are not eligible for a PGWP and a program two years or more can be eligible for up to three years.
