Post Graduate work permit after private college

[journeytocitizenship]

Hello everyone,

My brother is attending a private college on a study visa. I have heard that he cannot apply for PGWP after he is done because it's a private institution. Can someone confirm?

Yes - that's often the case. Depends on which school it is. You can find out here:

Thanks so much. If he were to do a course in a public institution....do you know if it will be difficult to get another study permit? Or would it be viewed negatively by IO?
