Special provisions apply to dependants of diplomats, visitors attending short-term language courses, and persons who intend to enroll in courses of studies that are not academic, professional or vocational in nature.
Dependants of diplomatic personnel or members of their staff who wish to attend courses and who possess the acceptance counterfoil obtained from the Office of Protocol do not require a student authorization.

Visitors wishing to continue language training beyond the three-month period or those wishing to enroll in other educational programs must leave Canada and obtain student authorization in the normal manner.
