Express Entry + Masters admission

Hello,

I have received my ITA and am currently gathering the required documents to apply for my PR. I have 4.5 years of work experience.

However I am also planning to apply to the M.Sc. program in Computer Science at Simon Fraser university beginning Spring 2018. I plan to submit my PR application by the end of June and the admission deadline for SFU is August 01.

Kindly let me know how I proceed with this. My major concern is regarding my visa interview.

Thanks in advance.

I would like to learn more about this as well. My appication is already in process, I just don't know how long it's going to take until I get PR.

I am interested in applying for a Masters course as well.

Wait to go to grad school after you've been approved for PR. Tuition will be cheaper and you'll likely be eligible for more financial aid options than an international student will be.

The odds of submitting your app in June and being approved by August are not in your favor, based on current trends.
