Hi;

**Degrees from public DLI**
Studying two different programs, one after another (two different colleges, potentially), is this eligible? Here are the potential combinations:

One year certificate + One year certificate = 3 years PGWP?

One year certificate + One year diploma = 3 years PGWP?

Two years diploma + One year certificate = 3 years PGWP?

** does one year programs have two semesters?

Thanks :)

All programs are different so they may have 2 semesters. When doing a combination of 2 degrees/diplomas you can't work during the period between the 2 programs. If you do 1 degree that is 2 or 3 years long you can work during all the breaks between terms or semesters.

it is eligible only if you do not get PGWP after first program. Suppose a student get 1 year PGWP after 1 year program . Then completes another program of 1 year after work permit. Then he will not get PGWP FOR 3 YEARS.

PGWP is only given once. So one year of program will only give you a year of PGWP. If you want to go back to school after your one year PGWP expires, you will not get a pgwp again.
