 Sudden shifts in government focus and policy are nothing new - but they, like all unforeseen challenges, can cause teams to react, and often this brings panic.
A sudden policy shift in Canada is shaking many universities’ ability to maintain a diverse and vibrant international community. In an election year, our government has decided to cut international student permits by about 35% to stabilize growth. As a result, we're facing unique challenges head-on. This move, aimed at managing international student growth and easing pressures on available housing, has profound implications. While there is a benefit to ensuring a reputation for Canadian academic excellence is protected by unscrupulous schools, our reputable institutions may be caught in the crossfire. Our universities and polytechnics that have long benefited from the cultural and fiscal influx of a diverse student body now find routine enrollment strategies create major strategic hurdles. This will have far-reaching implications for Canadian higher education and its place on resumes abroad.
