UPEI campus
The suburban campus of UPEI combines features of an urban and rural campus. It is located outside the big city, which allows you to focus on your studies. However, it is also not too far, opening up access to more types of recreation, both outdoors and in the city (theaters, museums, restaurants). The educational institution has its own library. Here, students do their homework or just have a good time reading an interesting book. Foreigners who come to UPEI through exchange programs study and live with local students. Thus, the university promotes intercultural exchange and the establishment of interethnic relations.
Canada allows university graduates to stay in the country from 1 to 3 years. To do this, you need to apply for a graduate visa, which allows you to work even without a formal offer from an employer. You can find other options for immigration in our article.
