Too many people were getting approved and changing their university before starting school. Usually they switched to an easier school/program which is why you now have to reapply and be reassessed.

Can anyone tell me if I can travel with the same stamped passport that I had received after my study visa was approved for another university,or will I have to again give it for stamping in case of visa approval??

Sure you do, it is attached to authorization with your old LOA.... Once you re-apply and approved, you will receive another authorization letter and can use same TRV to travel.
You mean can I travel with the same passport that I got stamped after my first application was approved or do I have to re-submit the passport in case I get the PPR?

This is the answer of wonderbly

“ . Once the new application is approved, the current trv will be cancelled/invalidated and a new one will be issued.l

You will need to send your passport in for a new counterfoil to be stamped on. The previous one will be cancelled. If you have submitted a new SP application, I would STRONGLY suggest you do not attempt to travel on the current counterfoil.

Have you sent your passport in for the ne conterfoil to be stamped? My old counterfoil in my GCKey was invalidated after my passport was stamped with the new one. When I received my passport back, the counterfoil also had a "Cancelled" stamp on it.

Yes I have sent it and it is returned. No, it was not stamped with cancelled and it shows it is still valid in my old study permit application

So you have 2 valid TRVs? Is it still showing as valid on your GCKey as well? I think you should just plan to use the new one.

Yes exactly, 2 valid student TRVs. Is it going to cause me problems at the border or when boarding the plane? Also, can can I ask what was your experience when traveling after you reapplied?

I don't think it should cause any problems as long as you present the recent one.
I didn't experience anything untoward or out of the ordinary during my travel to Canada.
