Do mexican immigrants qualify for any student loan programs in any province in Canada?

my friend is immigrating to canada from mexico and wants to become a pilot…will he qualify for any financial assistance once he’s in canada?

depends. I don’t know about other provinces but in Ontario if your friend is a landed immigrant or permanent resident and he has a SIN card then he can apply for student loans. He would be eligible for the federal portion of the loan and if he can prove that he has NOT lived in any other province in Canada for 12 months, he will be eligible for the Ontario portion of the loan as well.

He then has to ensure that the school that he goes to is approved for OSAP.
