International student interest in Canada is rising again after two years of decline. New search data shows a sharp increase in prospective students looking at Canadian institutions. This turnaround follows a major policy change after officials removed master's and doctoral students from the national enrolment cap. These postgraduate applicants no longer need a provincial attestation letter to apply. Online searches for master's programs jumped by 55 percent in December 2025. This demand remained high through March 2026. Experts state that policy stability is successfully restoring international student confidence.
