International Students
Rotman Arts and Science School proudly welcomes international students every year. Our well-rounded academic and arts program provides a learning experience that helps build critical skills and knowledge, allows students to thrive in their post secondary learning and beyond, and supports students’ artistic passions. Our experienced teachers are dedicated to guiding students towards success and knowledge.
Student Visa
The Canadian Government provides visas (Study Permits) to students accepted to Canadian educational institutions. Students accepted to Rotman Arts and Science School will receive a Letter of Acceptance and all the necessary documents in order to apply for their Study Permit. The arrival airport is Toronto's Pearson International Airport, where our representatives meet the arriving students and bring them to their homestay.
Homestay Service
Foreign and out of province students can request the homestay service in which they will receive accomodations at one of our students' or teachers' family homes. All academic and arts classes are conducted on the campus of the academy from 9 am to 5 pm Monday through Friday and from 12 to 3 pm on Sundays (dance and arts programs only). Students have a one-week break every two months, and a two-week Christmas break. Students in the Homestay Program are supervised at all times, except during their leisure time and school breaks.
English Language for Foreign Students
Canada is home to tens of thousands of students from countries all around the world. Many of them come to Canada to learn English. Our educational system accommodates students who have limited command of the English Language. The educational program for foreign students whose first language is not English is designed to immerse students in a stress-free English environment. Rotman Arts and Science School offers an intensive English study course for those interested.
Work Opportunities
Graduates of Rotman Arts and Science School may continue their university or college studies in Canada or another country. Those who stay in Canada may obtain a permit to work at the campus of their university or college and later apply for permanent resident status in Canada. Graduates obtaining the Diploma as Ballet Dancers have the opportunity to audition to Victoria Ballet Company where they may work professionally as ballet dancers.
