Q: What are the visa requirements for Canada?
A: Visa requirements for Canada vary depending on where you are travelling from and your citizenship. Detailed information is available at http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/visit/index.asp, or from the Canadian Consulate in your home country.

A: We are currently in the process of applying for funding from various grants, which are currently under review, which will offer participants travel funding from U of T Comp Lit’s side of things. If those grant applications are successful, we will update our website accordingly and post travel funding applications for participants.
