Hey buddy, have you thought of linking your paper application online? I think it’s much faster that way. I applied on April 19 and still havent heard from them and paper applications take even longer so :) all the best to both of us!

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for an answer to my dilemma. Some background, I had applied for a thesis based master's program at Waterloo but was accepted into a course based program. The thesis based program is 24 months and the course based is 16 months. Based on this, I applied for a study permit for 16 months. However, afterwards, I was able to get in touch with a professor who said he will take me on as a student and transfer me to a thesis based masters. This was my ultimate goal, for many reasons.

So, I will have to apply for an extension around 3 months before my permit expires so i can finish up my thesis based degree. My worry is that if if my study permit is denied, I won't be able to graduate with ANY degree as the requirements of course based and research based degrees differ significantly.

So what can I do? I understand that almost every study permit extension applicant probably faces this dilemma; so I'm just here seeking some advice.
