Hello ,

Currently I am stuck in an situation and I am seeking an advice regarding my PGWP length.

- I have finished 2 academic semesters ( 8 months ) for graduate diploma then transferred to MEng program and took only one more academic semester.

The problem is in my academic transcript I have my grades for the first two semesters at the Graduate diploma program while the last one under MEng. As well as , the university only provided me with the degree certificate for the Masters as they considered the courses in diploma as advance standing.

So regarding my PGWP , how it will be calculated since I only have one degree certificate which is the Masters one ? will it be 1 year or 1.5 year or 3 years ( since MEng program is originally a 2 years program ) ?

No issue. You get a PGWP for the one year certificate course as long as you are full time.

Believe the rules about changing schools had not been in place in 2019 so wouldn’t be comparing your situation to this person’s situation
