PR with Private College Diploma

[Sarantos]

Hi all,

I'm been searching the web everywhere for this and I can't find an answer for it.

I'm hoping somebody was in the same position as me and could answer the question.

I'll be applying for my PR soon ( CEC ).
I've 2 years work experience in Canada and 4 plus years outside of Canada.

I recently finished my private college (DLI recognized college) which gave me the points I need to be successful for CEC.

Has anybody applied with a private college diploma for their PR and if so were they successful?
CIC mentions nothing about it nor can I find anybody within this forum who can answer.
I even reached out to immigration lawyer and they aren't 100% sure.

Thanks.

As long as its a Designated Learning Institution and recognized on the IRCC website you should be fine

Hi all,
I am in the same situation,graduated from one year diploma from a private college in Toronto and the points for education would give me the points needed.

Unfortunately I have been told private colleges diplomas are not eligible for pgwp and neither for PR points. I am confused and please if somebody have experience with using private college for crs points if could answer.

Thank you so much everyone!

Hi Friend,

I am working in IT in India and in your situation now with CRS of 419 (IELTS CLB 9/B.Tech). Would doing an 8 months UNDERGRADUATE diploma from a Canadian PRIVATE college get me points in EE (25 points for Skill Transfer of Education +15 points for Canadian Education+ 7 additional education points for this diploma and my BTech instead of current 112 points for B.tech alone) so that i go beyond cut off and apply for PR. i am not worried about PGWP (work permit) because i do not need that for get ITA. Thanks in advance.

Are we 100% sure? because if it is 100% then i need leave my current job (Big decision!) and come for study in a Private college so that i get additional points to get ITA. Current CRS score 419 and with Canadian 8 months Diploma it would be 466. Not worried about PGWP.Thanks in advance

Is it DLI recognized and you completed the program with an approved study permit? If so yes it counts.

yes it is a DLI in British Columbia. I enrolled and got my study permit for the same diploma program. Also the college is registered with BC EQA.

So you can count points for Canadian education.
