How far in advance should I book my course?

You should book your English course/programs at least 3-4 weeks before the starting date, if you also request accommodation. Students who only book English course/programs can be accepted at the last minute, 2 days before starting dates. Students who need to apply for a visa to be able to come to Canada should have enough time to apply for the visa.
