Our Story

Built by immigrants, for immigrants.

We've navigated the study permits, the visa applications and the "what do I do now?" moments โ€” and we built NorthTake so you don't have to figure it all out alone.

Why we started NorthTake.

When we moved to Canada, we found the system confusing, the information scattered, and the consultants either too expensive or too generic. We had to piece everything together ourselves โ€” the study permit process, the right programs, the hidden costs, what actually gets approved.

NorthTake is what we wish had existed when we were figuring it all out. We're not a big agency with a quota to fill. We're two people who know this system deeply, work with a regulated RCIC partner, and genuinely care about getting you to the right outcome.

Whether you're a student deciding between countries, a professional looking for a post-study work pathway, or someone who's been rejected and doesn't know why โ€” we've seen it and helped solve it.
