York University joins BorderPass’ growing network of institutional partners

As Canada’s study permit process continues to change, institutions need stronger ways to support international students before they arrive. BorderPass is proud to partner with York University as it joins a growing network of more than 40 designated learning institutions using BorderPass to support international student immigration. Through this partnership, incoming York students can use BorderPass for guided study permit application support, including document guidance, legal review, and support built around today’s immigration requirements. For institutions, BorderPass helps improve application quality, increase visibility into student progress, and give international teams better tools to support students from the start.

Strengthening the process for incoming students

For international students, the immigration process is one of the first and most important steps before beginning their studies in Canada.

BorderPass helps simplify this process by guiding students through key requirements, supporting document collection, and helping ensure applications are prepared with accuracy and consistency.

The platform combines automated workflows with licensed Canadian lawyers, giving students a more reliable way to complete their applications while helping institutions maintain quality across the process.

Immigration infrastructure for institutions

BorderPass helps equip institutions with infrastructure that supports both students and internal teams. Through the platform, institutions can access tools that help standardize how applications are filed, improve visibility across student progress, support compliance, and create a more consistent immigration experience for incoming students. This gives institutional teams better data, clearer processes, and stronger systems to support students before they arrive in Canada.

Supporting York's global student community

York University welcomes students from around the world across a wide range of programs and disciplines.

This partnership strengthens the support available to incoming international students by giving them access to a guided immigration application experience backed by legal expertise and built for institutional quality standards.

“International education in Canada is entering a more demanding environment for students and institutions,” said Sally Daub, Co-Founder of BorderPass. “We’re proud to support York University with the guidance and tools students need before they arrive.”

Building a more reliable path to Canada

This partnership reflects BorderPass' broader mission to make immigration support more accessible, structured, and scalable for students and the institutions that support them.

By combining technology, legal expertise, and institutional tools, BorderPass helps create a more reliable path for incoming students as they take the first step toward studying in Canada.

Canada’s entry/exit system is catching up to its data problem. Here’s how schools and employers stay ahead with BorderPass.

Canada is moving to confirm departures as closely as it records arrivals. BorderPass’s compliance management system lets DLIs and employers track expiring permits and unconfirmed departures across their own students and workforce, so they can act on those cases before the government flags concerns. For years, Canada has been much better at recording who arrives than at confirming who leaves. That gap is now a matter of public record, and it is closing faster than most people expect. For the DLIs and employers who host and hire temporary residents, that change turns compliance from an entry-side formality into an obligation that runs a permit’s full term. BorderPass’s compliance management system tracks permit expiry, renewal, and departure against real student and worker records, so a gap is visible while there is still time to act.

Ontario’s $500 Billion Diversification Moment

On Tuesday, June 23rd, founders, investors, economic development leaders, and policymakers gathered at the Crowne Plaza in Kitchener for the 8th Annual Canada’s Innovation Corridor Summit. The Summit is an annual one-day event designed to fuel regional connectivity and collaboration across one of the world’s most significant economic corridors — a technology and manufacturing powerhouse centred in the Greater Golden Horseshoe and anchored by Toronto, Kitchener-Waterloo, and Hamilton. Dan Weber, Head of Public Affairs at BorderPass, attended as part of the company’s ongoing engagement with the policy and business community shaping Ontario’s innovation ecosystem. The conversation was urgent and the numbers were stark: Ontario’s long-standing trade dependence on the United States is overdue for rebalancing, and the workforce systems that support international investment are struggling to keep pace with ambition.
