Plan, follow due process, be patient!
If you click the links above you will notice the differences in each of the sub-programs.

Basically,

FSW: For skilled workers with FOREIGN work experience
CEC: For skilled workers with CANADIAN experience
FST: For skilled workers qualified in selected skilled TRADES

Note this
I can hear someone saying how will I know which one to apply for?

As stated, if you don't have CANADIAN work experience, or in the selected skilled TRADES, then your option is Federal Skilled Worker (FSW).

FSW is what many people OUTSIDE Canada apply for. Pay attention to that.

All the best in your application.

Research and check how relevant your program is

Below are the Top 10 Most Valuable Degrees in Canada according to Royal Bank of Canada.
This ranking is by highest average salaries compared to tuition costs

It is to give info on degrees with good returns on (education) investment

"No matter what program you choose in the end, with careful budgeting, planning & hard work, you can find success in any field." - RBC
1) Business/Management Sciences

The discipline is more tied to math than commerce and will teach students about theories and models in statistics and programming

It will also teach students how to apply the knowledge/skills to a variety of business problems.

The interesting thing is that when it comes to Canadian Immigration, there is no pass or fail in IELTS.

The reason why people do it many times is to gain more points and increase their score.

CLB 7 is good for some, some need CLB 10... depending on other things in your profile.
The immigration system is point-based.

6 selection factors of language test, education level, work experience, age, having Canadian job offer, or having adaptability factors (i.e relative in Canada) are used

The more you have, the more your points (except for age when over 29) Image
As little as extra 0.5 in Listening, if you have 7.5 in Listening, and 7 in others can be the game-changer for you

The above is CLB 8 already, but if the listening alone moves to 8.0, that takes you CLB 9.

And guess what, that can give you over 50 additional immigration points.

1) Sign up for pre-arrival and newcomer services

Canada cares about you and wants you to succeed here.

There are resources both before leaving your country and upon arrival in Canada. See the links below:

Pre-arrival bit.ly/PreArrivalServ…

15 things to do as a new international student in Canada.

You can now arrive in Canada if your school is on the list here bit.ly/listofschoolsw…

Asides from having the ArriveCAN, Visa, all docs, and your quarantine plan, this is a list of things to do as a new student.

Thread
1) Obtain your study permit

This is inevitable but many new students do not know. What most (if not all) foreign students have from their country is a temporary resident visa. Study permit is issued upon arrival

Put your documents in your hand luggage to avoid unnecessary delay
2) Obtain your Social Insurance Number

If the condition of your study permit allows you to work in Canada, you need to get your S.I.N. You may be able to get one at the airport upon arrival (ask there)

If not, check bit.ly/applyforSIN for how to apply at Service Canada.
