The Ford government has announced a new approach to its cap on the number of international students attending Ontario’s colleges and universities as a further tightening of the federal rules trickles down.

The number of places allowed for international students in Ontario is set to decline again in 2025, while more different types of international students will require permission to study in Canada.

“As we have been from the beginning, our government is laser focused on ensuring students in Ontario receive the skills they need to succeed in industries that address our province’s labour market needs,” Nolan Quinn, Minister of Colleges and Universities, said in a statement.

“In response to this decision by the federal government, we remain steadfast in working with our colleges and universities to deliver an excellent education throughout Ontario.”

Overall, the number of places for international students studying in Ontario will decline by 23 per cent in 2025.
