Thank you Friday.friday.h said:Every international student holding a Study Permit is obligated to be enrolled as a full time student during entire duration of stay. To fulfill this, you should continue at your college and move to new in Jan 15 but if you withdraw now from your college, you might save some money as they may give you a partial refund.
When you withdraw from a college, the college is required to provide this information to CIC and hence, CIC will know about your status and I am not sure about the consequences. You may be able to stay without being enrolled as it's a matter of 2 months but you will definitely loose your student status.
Further, as you have a valid Study permit until 2017, everything should be smooth if you continue at your college now and switch next semester. Credit transfer option, if there is one, may be worth considering. Calm down and consider all the options, in worst case all you loose is 1 semester's fee.
Good Luck!
Even if I drop now, I am not going to get any refund now. What are the possibilities like if I get enrolled in other colleges:
1. Should I pursue short courses like french or any thing for a period of two months and later join the same college from Jan.
2. If I drop now, and didnt admit to any short courses, n if I loose my student status, Should I have to reapply to gain my student visa.
3. What are the consequences like if I have to be deported?
Looking to hear from you soon
Thank you
