The report, titled "Access Denied: Unveiling Disparities in Study Permit Approvals for African Students in Canada," emphasizes that despite Canada's reputation as a preferred study destination, significant barriers exist for African students between 2018 and 2023.

According to the report, African students have an average acceptance rate of less than 50%, whereas students from other regions consistently see acceptance rates above 75%.
