Study Abroad
Compare two destinations
The same questions, answered from official sources, for two countries at a time. NooPro does not rank destinations — where a government publishes nothing, this page says so rather than filling the gap with a number.
01Visa and entry
Visa and entry: Uzbekistan and Canada
| Factor | Uzbekistan | Canada |
|---|---|---|
| Student visa | We could not confirm a specific student visa category on an official Uzbek page. Visas are issued through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs e-visa portal — confirm the correct category with the Uzbek mission before applying. | Study permit. A temporary resident visa or eTA is issued alongside it for travel — the permit itself is not the travel document. |
| Issuing authority | Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Uzbekistan. | Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC). The study permit fee is CAD 150. |
| How you apply | Through the official e-visa portal. The study-specific document list, including any invitation letter requirement, was not found on an official page. | Apply online through IRCC after an acceptance letter from a Designated Learning Institution. Processing times are published live on the IRCC tool rather than as a fixed figure. |
| Proof of funds | Not published on any official Uzbek page we could find. Confirm with the mission. | You must prove funds for tuition, living costs and return travel, for yourself and any family joining you. IRCC sets the living-cost figure and revises it periodically, so read the current amount on its financial-support page. |
| Language requirement | Set by the university. Confirm the medium of instruction in writing before you accept an offer. | IRCC does not set a test score for the study permit itself. Your Designated Learning Institution sets the language requirement for admission. |
| Health cover | No official medical or insurance requirement for Indian student applicants was confirmed. | Health cover depends on the province, not the federal government. Several provinces exclude international students from public cover and expect private insurance. |
02Fees
Fees: Uzbekistan and Canada
| Factor | Uzbekistan | Canada |
|---|---|---|
| Tuition fees | No Uzbek government body publishes a tuition range for foreign students. Fees must be read from each university. | Statistics Canada publishes national average international tuition each year, broken down by province and field of study — the 2025/2026 release is the current official reference. |
03Scholarships
Scholarships: Uzbekistan and Canada
| Factor | Uzbekistan | Canada |
|---|---|---|
| Official scholarships | No inbound Uzbek government scholarship for Indian students was found. El-Yurt Umidi, which is often cited, funds Uzbek citizens to study abroad — the opposite direction. | Federal funding is concentrated at doctoral level. Vanier Canada Graduate Scholarships is no longer accepting new applications; applicants are directed to the Canada Graduate Scholarship – Doctoral programme. |
04Admission
Admission: Uzbekistan and Canada
| Factor | Uzbekistan | Canada |
|---|---|---|
| Who recognises institutions | Ministry of Higher Education, Science and Innovation of the Republic of Uzbekistan. Recognition of foreign educational documents runs through the government's nostrification e-service. | There is no single national higher-education regulator. The operative list is IRCC's Designated Learning Institution register — a school must be on it for its students to hold a study permit. |
| Application route | No central portal was found. Applications go directly to each university. | No national portal. You apply to each Designated Learning Institution directly. |
| Entry requirements | Set by each university. Ask the Embassy of India in Tashkent for its current advisory before you commit. | Entry requirements are set by each institution and province. Check the DLI list before you apply, not after you receive an offer. |
05After graduation
After graduation: Uzbekistan and Canada
| Factor | Uzbekistan | Canada |
|---|---|---|
| Post-study work rights | No dedicated post-study work route for foreign graduates was found on official Uzbek sources. | Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP), valid from 8 months up to 3 years depending on the length of your programme. Since 1 November 2024, field-of-study requirements apply to many applicants, and master's programmes follow separate rules. |
| Using the degree in India | A medical degree earned here does not by itself allow practice in India. Under the National Medical Commission (Foreign Medical Graduate Licentiate) Regulations, 2021, an Indian citizen must hold an NMC eligibility certificate before enrolling and must clear the NMC screening examination (FMGE) to register in India. The regulations also set conditions on course duration, language of instruction and clinical training completed in the country of study. | For most academic subjects there is no separate Indian licensing step. Regulated professions — medicine, nursing, law, architecture, accountancy — are each governed by their own Indian regulator, and a foreign qualification is not automatically accepted. Confirm the position with that regulator before you enrol, not after you graduate. |
