I am an international student started in september 2022. I am doing my masters and coop is mandatory i couldnt get it in summer and my college mentioned that i will be on a personal leave of absence from 13th june and i was working till 13th june. Now i am worried that my actual summer sem starts from 8th may and i was working till 13th june part time. will it be considered as unauthorised work and will my pgwp be rejected?

This should not be a problem. You were given notification on June 13th and have not worked since. So this will not affect your PGWP. It's similar to completing your studies. While the semester ends in April, program completion is not issued until May then convocation. On another note why didn't you go on the coop? Because now you're basically wasting 4 months by not working, not completing your program and not gaining any in Canada work experience...
