Our small school environment ensures authentic, meaningful relationships and an inclusive, warm community. Embracing over 20 different nationalities within our community, we ignite the “it” within each student, challenging and empowering students to pursue their passions.
Our staff, faculty, houseparents, and boarding dons make sure every student feels welcome, cared for, and supported during their studies and beyond. In the classroom, we ensure that the curriculum reflects the perspectives of our students and is culturally responsive.
Many nations are represented in the various boarding houses, allowing students to build up a global network of contacts from across Canada and around the world. The boarding experience builds confidence, perspective, and life-long friendships. It grants the opportunity to become more self-reliant and self-aware, and to build confidence within a supportive community.
Rosseau Lake College’s balanced, supportive, and challenging co-curricular program allows students to develop life skills that will serve them well beyond their years in high school. They also allow a true Canadian experience, including trips to the north, to the nation's capital region, and everything in between. Being close to Toronto means that we're also close to the most important cultural institutions in the country, as well as many of the most desirable universities.

Therefore, we require each international student to have an English-speaking custodian who is a minimum of 21 years old and resides in the Province of Ontario for the entire duration of their academic journey with us.

Understanding Your Study Authorization
To study in Canada, you will need to apply for a Study Permit. For many international students, this also involves obtaining a Temporary Resident Visa (TRV), often referred to as a "student visa," which allows you to enter Canada.
The Application Process:
Apply for your Student Visa/Study Permit: You must apply for your study authorization from outside Canada, typically through your nearest Canadian Embassy or Consulate. For comprehensive information and application guidelines, please visit the official website of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) at canada.ca/immigration.
Confirmation of Approval: Once your Student Visa and Study Permit application is approved, you will receive a confirmation letter. This letter is vital and must be presented upon your arrival in Canada.
Port of Entry Issuance: Upon your arrival at a Canadian port of entry (e.g., airport), an Immigration Canada officer will review your confirmation letter and issue your official Study Permit, which will be affixed to your passport.
Important Notes:Annual Renewal: Your Study Permit typically has an expiry date and must be renewed on a yearly basis to ensure continuous legal status for your studies in Canada.
Processing Times: The time required to process a study permit application varies significantly depending on your country of origin and the volume of applications. It is highly recommended to apply as early as possible after receiving your Letter of Enrollment.
Check Processing Times: To get an estimate of the current processing times for your country, please visit the Government of Canada's official website: canada.ca/immigration-processing-times.We strongly encourage you to begin this process promptly to ensure a smooth transition to Rosseau Lake College.
