Submitting your documents to the university

New students

You must submit your immigration documents by your first day of class.

If you don’t upload your required immigration documents to the Concordia Student Centre by the deadline, you will be de-registered after the term’s enrolment period ends.

To study at Concordia, you must have valid immigration documents as required by the governments of Quebec and Canada. The university is obligated to collect and maintain these documents for government reporting. Without them, we cannot confirm your authorization to study or allow you to remain enrolled.

Deferrals

If you don’t have your required immigration documents by the beginning of the term, you must defer your studies. Please contact the admissions officer or graduate program coordinator/admissions advisor listed in your Offer of Admission to request a deferral.

• If you have already applied for your CAQ, you can use it to start your studies at a later term.
• If you have not yet applied for your CAQ, simply use your deferred Offer of admission when you apply.

Returning students

You must submit your renewed document(s) by the date of expiration of your current document(s).

Important: Upload your study permit to your student service centre once you receive it and, at the latest, by the start of class of your first term.

Tip: Install the Concordia app and submit your documents from your phone!
