To enroll in the Student Direct Stream (SDS) program at Northern Lights College, applicants must meet specific criteria. First, they must be a legal resident of an SDS-eligible country, such as India, China, or the Philippines. Second, they must provide proof of acceptance into a post-secondary program at the college.
Additionally, applicants must show a Guaranteed Investment Certificate (GIC) of CAD $10,000, pay the first year’s tuition upfront, and obtain a medical exam confirmation. English proficiency test scores, such as IELTS (6.0 or higher) or equivalent, are also required. Meeting these criteria ensures faster visa processing under SDS.
