changing course after one semester?

[Sammmmmmhhh]

Hey everyone,
I recently changed my 3 years course(Business Administration Accounting) to 2 years (Business Accounting). I talked with my program coordinators and they said that since both the program have same academics, I could return as a 3rd semester student. And according to my new program, I have a summer break right now. So my concern is that Do I have to stop working? Is it okay if I continue to work?

No but I withdrew in Nov 10 2022 and took another program in jan 2023 so I only have 1.5 month gap but according to immigration rules we should not remain free for more than 150 days on study permit right ? And moreover I changed program once not multiple times right ?

Hi Brar, Did you end up getting PGWP or not yet?

Bar, seems to went to same college and took the same program as I did. I get it, the GIS course was crazy busy. I mean I had to put in around 12–13 hours M-F just for the classes, assignment and project. Heck, I failed one major course in the last 3 semester aka June 2022 and had to wait another 8 months to take the course again starting May 2023–June 2023. So I was a full-timer from Sept 2021–June 2022. Part-time from Jan 2023–April 2023 (the course I failed has a prerequisite course in 2nd sem) and again full time from May 2023–June 2023. As you can see I did nothing as in I never went to school between June 2022–Jan 2023.

I didn't have money to go for another course, which would had given me 3 year PGWP, so I applied for PGWP in Sept 2023, explaining the reason why I failed, what I did and what I plan to do. Jan 2024 I got one year PGWP. Make what want to make out of it but, I personally feel as long as you show that learned from your mistake and take your program/course seriously and have a good solid plan I think the officer will be more inclined to give positive result.
