加拿大政府2020年3月20日宣布，于2020年3月18日生效时，持有有效学习许可或已获批准学习许可的国际学生免于COVID-19旅行限制。

这意味着，已注册学生在恢复面授课程后可回到校园继续完成学习。同时，3月23日（周一）至4月17日（周五）在线/远程恢复2020年冬季学期课程。学生无需返回校园即可完成2020年冬季学期。

3月20日 （周五）每位在校生都收到了Academic Completion Plan，如果对此有任何疑问，请让学生联系其课程Program Coordinator，联系方式在官网专业介绍左侧侧✅图标中可找到。

对于2020年5月入学的学生，在3月18日或之前获得学习许可的学生可获豁免，并可前往加拿大学习。

受这些豁免政策影响的人不应试图立即前往加拿大。预计政府将在下周初宣布具体豁免时间，请大家关注IRCC 官方信息。

除了出行前的健康检查外，所有从国外入境的个人在抵达加拿大后都必须隔离14天。

The Government of Canada announced on March 20, 2020 that international students who held a valid study permit, or had been approved for a study permit, when the travel restrictions took effect on March 18, 2020 are exempt from the COVID-19 travel restrictions. This means that currently enrolled students can return to Canada once in-person classes resume and continue their studies on campus. In the meantime, Winter 2020 classes resume online/remotely on Monday, March 23 until Friday, April 17. Students do not need to return to campus to complete the Winter 2020 semester. Students were sent an Academic Completion Plan by their program on Friday, March 20, and should contact their program coordinator if they have any questions. For the May 2020 intake, students who were issued study permits on or prior to March 18 are exempt and can travel to Canada to study. Those affected by these exemptions should not try to travel to Canada immediately. The Government will announce when the exemptions are in place, which we anticipate will be early next week. In addition to health screening protocols before travel, all individuals entering from abroad must isolate for 14 days upon their arrival in Canada.
