BC will not approve new post-secondary institutions
The B.C. government says it’s going to stop approving the establishment of new post-secondary institutions that want to recruit international students for the next two years.
Advanced Education Minister Selina Robinson says it’s part of a move to improve the quality of post-secondary education in the province.
She says, right now, international students are being taken advantage of in many schools that offer subpar education.
Earlier this month, the federal government announced a cap on the number of international student visas it’ll be issuing for the next two years.
