Hi all,

I'm a thesis-based graduate student and about to apply PGWP. I understand that CIC requires submission of transcripts now and we have to maintain full-time status all the time.

The problem is, I failed one of three co-op term due to unsatisfactory co-op report last year, was I still considered as a full-time student back then? Will a co-op F/X grade affect my application for PGWP?

Thanks,

Pass/fail shouldn't matter if you actually did the co-op.
Thank you for the reply.

I confirmed with my department, I was still a fulltime student with a co-op term registration regardless of pass/fail.
I wonder, in addition to all my other required documents, if I should write an explanation letter to emphasis this or explain the reason I fail?

Just curious, what the hell happened lol. Not many people 'fail' a co-op. Did you not get along with the manager or something?

On the contrary, my manager and coworkers can provide solid proof and recommendations for my work. It's the co-op report that was unsatisfying because I didn't care for a report that much as the most., yet turned out a professor who's obsessing with it insisted to fail the report.

I am so sorry to heard that you failed.
I think it is okey because even you failed you well fulltime any its just you fail. So i think that will not cause the problem because the finals transcript will show fail not part time.
