Étudiants internationaux: les complexes ramifications en matière d'immigration de crimes mineurs

Every year university students are charged with criminal offences. While such events are stressful and difficult for any student, they are of particular concern for international students. For international students, a criminal conviction, even for minor offences, will generally result in revocation of their study permit and deportation from Canada. International students who are aware of the immigration consequences of criminal charges early in the process stand a much better chance of having the penal consequences of their actions addressed in a manner that does not also force them to withdraw from their studies and to leave Canada.
