Palestinian student accepted by Canadian university will study in France because visa approval took too long
July 21, 2025
A Palestinian student accepted by the University of Alberta is now preparing to continue his studies in France because he says that country was able to get him out of Gaza to safety – and Canada wasn’t.
Ehab is one of about 70 students from Gaza pursuing study opportunities abroad with the help of the Canadian-based Palestinian Students and Scholars at Risk Network.
Ehab said he applied for his Canadian student visa in February. The Canadian Press has agreed not to publish his last name due to security concerns.
