Christian higher education in Manitoba
Providence University College and Theological Seminary
Otterburne & Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada
Providence is a private Christian higher-education institution offering undergraduate liberal arts, business, aviation, science, ministry and social-science programs, along with selected non-theological graduate degrees and theological seminary education.

PGWP eligibility is program-specific:
IRCC lists only Providence’s non-theological associate, bachelor’s,
master’s and doctoral degree programs as potentially PGWP eligible when
all other requirements are met. Theological Seminary programs and other
credentials are not eligible merely because Providence is a DLI.
Available Program Options
Providence’s 2025–26 Otterburne schedule lists international undergraduate tuition and student fees at approximately CAD $9,015 per 15-credit semester. Fees, availability and 2026–27 charges must be reconfirmed before payment.
