Hi!! I dont want to apply for a work permit. Its just that if i switch to part time i can still take 3 courses and finish in a year and a half.. and the best part is that i dont even have to pay extra. I just wanted to know if it is possible to switch to part time or not. If what you are saying is true about getting an extension then I dont think it is possible.
On the cic website they just ask for your transcript and if I show three courses per term i dont think there should be an issue.. anyways.. i am waiting for PMM to reply too!!
You make no sense. Firstly, in most Universities, taking a minimum of 3 courses per semester classifies you as a FULL TIME student. Secondly, if let's say you were to do 2 courses per semester for three consecutive semesters then how would that make it cheaper if you still had to do a cumulative of 6 subjects regardless.
Secondly, an extension of a study permit is likely to be denied if they see that you are studying only parttime for a few semesters. This is because you're intention for coming into Canada is solely to study as a fulltime student. Third point is that once you graduate, obtain one year of work experience and then apply for the Experience Class, you will likely be denied unless you meet the requirement of having studied as a fulltime student for atleast 4 semesters/2 years.
You are treading a dangerous path and seem to be quite confused to me by repeatedly stating that you will save money. If you have to take 6 courses, they will cost you the same amount whether you take them all in one go or spread them out over a few semesters.
