Hi All,

There is a little confusion among students who complete their degree and apply for PGWP.

Uncertain on the number years awarded to them after completion of 1 or 2 year programs. I hope this thread can benefit people who are looking for such information.

Is it true that on completion of any 2 year PG certificate/Degree a student will be awarded 60 credits which is enough to get 3 year PGWP?

How do we calculate credit hours from the total program duration?

For eg: I look for a program Information Systems which is a 1 year program and has class only for 500 hours. How much credit hours will it accumulate?


I wish experts provide their valuable information on this topic as I'm still new to the forum and have very limited information.

Thanks.

Credits vary depending on the class and subject

Usually people who are in school for 4 academic semesters (2 Fall Semesters and 2 Winter Semesters) get a 3 year work permit

If your program was for 1 year (two semesters) you will get a 1 year work permit even if you were in class 18 hours a day 7 days a week
