I graduated from Uni this summer and applied for my PGWP a month ago. Last September coming into the fall term I changed programs so I was able to graduate faster and only had 3 credits left which is one course. I failed that course which I was taking by itself and then took a different course the winter term to fulfill my degree requirements. This meant that I was a part-time student for two semesters and I know that affects my PGWP decision. But to what extent will it affect it as I didn't intend on having that extra part-time semester but I only had 3 credits left. Thank you:)

Only your last semester can be part-time. So if any other semesters were part-time you are not eligible for a PGWP. All you can do is wait and see if approved.

To what extent? Basically, you can be deemed as no longer eligible for PGWP
