I'm an engineering student in Egypt, and I want to emigrate to Canada as a refugee...?
I want to continue my studies there, what shall I do? I heard that they would provide me a caregiver, and find me a job to live there. Would Canada support me as a student refugee there? Until I become a resident or a citizen?

Refugee from what? Canada's refugee system is not geared to people who just want to go to school, it is aimed at those who are fleeing persecution or war. You do not appear to qualify. Go to your closest Canadian Embassy, they can provide you with information on eligibility for a student visa. But as a student, you will be expected to support yourself while in Canada. Even refugees do not receive government support to go to school, any more than Canadian citizens do. All the refugee system will do is give you income support until you have a job.

If you have financial problems, claiming as a refugee isnt going to work because you will have to pay the govt back eventually. Instead, since you have the education, apply as a skilled worker in MB or Sask. These provinces offer free provincal enterance, and if youhave friends or family here that can give you a hand, even better. If you are jewish, see the Jewish federation, they can support you. Check out their websites. Maybe this would be an other option instead of claiming as a refugee www.immigrationmanitoba.ca www.immigration.gov.sk.ca and further info, if still liking the refugee idea, ry: ww.cic.gc.ca

You don't need financial aid! Coming from the States where they charge you an arm and leg for some college education, Canadian tuitions should be mere pocket change! Sure we don't boast any top of the line institutions like Harvard or Yale, but you wouldn't have made it to those schools anways, right? :)

There are over 100 schools in Canada that participate in the US Federal Student Aid Program (so you, as a US Citizen or US Permanent Resident can receive US financial aid to attend). To find out which ones participate, go to www.fafsa.ed.gov and select "Search for school codes" under the #1 column. After selecting the 2008-09 year and that you are "searching" rather than "verifying", select "Canada" for the first drop-down box "What state is the school in?" (I know Canada isn't a state, but that's how you'll get your info...) Good Luck!

Absolutely! Most Canadian universities and many Canadian colleges are approved by the U.S. Department of Education making students eligible for the U.S. Stafford Loan and their parents eligible for the Parents PLUS loan. The list of all regonized Canadian schools can be found via a link on the "Finding Your School" page in the website below. The website will also provide you with all the information you need to transition to a postsecondary education in Canada. The information includes the differences between the U.S. and Canadian educational systems, how to complete the FAFSA, how to search for your school of choice (by province, region or program of study), the documentation you need, what you need to join the student work program if you want a job while studying, and even a suggested packing list! If you have any questions along the way, they answer almost immediately when you complete the Feedback form. Happy exploring!
