Hi all, I graduate in April 2023 from an undergrad program with co-op and will be applying for PGWP then.

In Summer 2020, I could not find a co-op due to Covid. I took one professional development course and was part-time that semester. I know that IRCC has said that you are still eligible for PGWP if studies were impacted by Covid between Jan and August 2020 (my Summer 2020 term was from May to August 2020). However, I am unsure if this covers co-ops as well

Has anyone here encountered this situation before, wherein they could not find a co-op due to covid and had their PGWP approved?

Thank you so much
