Hi ebeevery

Even though I'm taking 2 courses only (all required courses as for the program's schedule, btw), the international department of my Institution gave me a letter of enrollment saying I'm a full time student at the moment. Maybe because I'm taking approx. 20h classes per week (condensed courses). ???

However, on Camosun's website (my Institution), it says that full time students are those who take a minimum of 3 courses.

Well, now I have 2 conflictin information from them!

If I wanted to take an "extra" courses, I'd have to pay the amount required for up to 5 courses (more CAD$ 4,000). However, there's only one course I still could register for in this semester ... but I'd be waiting listed.

I don't know what to do. I need an official confirmation from someone affirming whether I must take 3 courses or if those 2 courses are ok. I'm doing everything the best I can to fullfil all prerequisites for the PGWP.

Camosun asked me to contact IRCC, because they don't know much about PGWP, apparently. But that's been kinda impossible!!!

Please, Has anyone gone through a similar situation?

I believe you should try take at least 3 courses to be on the safe side, even if you can take any course that is not related to your studies directly.
The letter from college that states that you are a "full time" student may or may not be considered by the immigration officer.
