is it possible to get a study permit if i only plan to study part-time?

[hoh818]

the graduate program i'm looking into can be taken either in 1 year (full time) or 2yrs (part-time). can i apply for the part-time option and then apply for at least a year's worth of post-graduation work permit after completion? these are all in hope of qualifying for the canadian experience class using work experience.

pls helppppp....
thank you.

To apply for study permit you need to go for a full time program, part time is not eligible for Study permit

Actually you can apply for a study permit for part time. See: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/manuals/op/op12-eng.pdf Section 5.10

If you are inside Canada, it is good to apply part-time not from outside.

so PMM, if i finish the program in 2 yrs (part-time), would i then be able to acquire a post-graduation work permit for at least 1 yr so i could qualify for Canadian experience class under work experience?

thank you all for your replies...

As I said in your other post, you are not eligible for post grad work permit as the study as to be full time. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/study/work-postgrad-who.asp
