Canada

Excellent. Canada offers one of the most direct and accessible pathways to permanent residency for international students. The system is designed to retain skilled graduates by allowing them to gain local work experience, which is a key factor for PR through its points-based Express Entry system.

Maximizing your CRS score is everything. This can be achieved through high language test scores, gaining more work experience, or obtaining a provincial nomination. A job offer can also add points but is not mandatory for CEC.
