Students from elsewhere are normally not considered residents of New York State, so they don t need to exchange their current driver's license.
If I do end up quitting school here and becoming a resident of NY, what if I go back to Canada and need my original driver's license?
In that case, when you pass your road test, ask the road test examiner how to make sure that your foreign driver license is not destroyed.
How will I prove that I'm a resident if I still pay taxes in Canada?
