Do American students need visas to study at Canadian universities?

<p>Is there any special requirement for us? Any process we need to go through?</p>

<p>I don't believe so - but for travel in and out of Canada to the US - one will need a pass-port (some say also a birth certificate - but not so sure.)</p>

<p>You need a study permit. It's a simple process. </p>
