2020 fall Conestoga college

[proceso]

Hello guys,

I am planning to study for a postgraduate certificate program this fall (first semester fees paid, Student visa pending). Today i received the academic delivery plan from conestoga for 2020 fall and 2021 winter, both are to be delivered remotely.

I'm wondering what will happen if they don't open the borders for international students as both the semesters are planned to be delivered remotely?

My plan is to do the 1st semester online and then go to Canada on december, then i can complete the remaining 50% of the course in canada and apply for the PGWP. But i am not sure what will happen with this current situation.

Any thoughts on this ?

Right now nobody knows if international students with permits issued after March 18 will be allowed to enter. As they are unlikely to have ties to Canada like an apartment or job I would suspect the answer is no.

You also won't be eligible for a PGWP if you don't complete at least 50% of your program in person, even in Canada, unless they change this later. An eight month PGWP isn't enough to get any points for Canadian work experience for PR anyways.

Thanks for the reply.

So many uncertainties. Anyway first I have to get my student visa. Let's see how that goes

One more question.

Assuming I will get the Student permit and I will complete the fall semester online, but I can't travel to canada because of the travel restrictions on december. will I be able to request to differ the winter 2021 semester ?

Hello,
Does your college contact you to provide study permit approval before the fall semester begins?

Yes. I have to provide it before starting
