Indian students dreaming of going to Canada a big shock, 8 out of 10 visas are rejecting:

News India Live, Digital Desk: Study Abroad: There is a disturbing news for thousands of Indian students and their families dreaming of studying in Canada. Canada used to be the most preferred place for Indian students until some time ago, now the doors there are seen closing. This year, in 2025, Canada has rejected approximately 80% of Indian students’ visa applications, the highest in the last decade.

This news is no less than a shock for those families who have spent millions of rupees for the better future of their children. Many students took a loan for studies, prepared for months, but in the end they were only disappointed.

After all, why did Canada become so strict?

You must be wondering what happened suddenly? Actually, Canada has its home reasons behind it. There are many types of pressure on the government, such as:

• Lack of homes: Due to the large number of students coming from outside, there has been a shortage of houses to live there.
• Inflation and job pressure: Being more people has also increased pressure on the facilities and jobs there.
• Fake documents: Many times, after the cases of fake documents are reported, now the investigation has been very strict.

For all these reasons, the Canadian government has tightened its rules.

Have the rules changed?

Yes, now more strictness is being taken for the visa than ever. The main changes are:

• More money proof: Now students will have to show more money in their bank account. This amount has been almost doubled to more than 20,000 Canadian dollars.
• Strict document check: From your education plan to every document is being closely examined. The visa is being rejected directly when there is any mistake.
• Low visa quota: The government has also reduced the number of study permits given this year.

Now what should Indian students do?

After this strictness, the trend of Indian students is now moving towards other countries. Germany is now emerging as a new and favorite alternative, as there is less expenditure of studies and the rules are not as strict. Apart from this, students are also considering options like Australia and UK. Students who still want to apply for Canada, now they need to be more careful than ever and prepare their documents very strongly.
