Subject: transfer visa from passport to passport?
  Hi,
I obtained a student visa for Canada at the border between the US and Canada, and had it put in my American passport(I have both French and American Nationality). I did this only because individuals working at my University gave me THE WRONG information and told me to get it in my American passport, bring it back to the University, show them that I also have the French nationality, and then I could access the tuition decrease (and pay about 2500$ ionstead of about 15 000$). Once I got this visa and came back to my University, I was told that whoever had told me this was wrong, and that i needed a visa in my french passport. So my question is, is there any way I can get a visa put in my french passport asap? I JUST got this american one, so all of my papers were obviously in order, the visa just got put in the wrong passport...
Should I go back to the border? The airport?
Any suggestions?? I would like to start up classes in January so this needs to happen quickly....
Thanks for any help.

Who were the individuals?

A simple letter from these individuals should suffice.

American nationals get a stamp at the border, French nationals don´t. So going back to the border won´t fix your problem.
Good luck!

I meant French nationals need a visa in their passport stamped in an embassy, sorry! so, it is a different process altogether in a way!
