Hi,
I wanted to know that is getting into Masters program in a Canadian University easier for a PR than an international student or not. If one has a CGPA of 2.8 in Bsc but plenty of work experience in the relevant field, can that PR card holder get admitted into a Masters Program ?? Please help me with as much details as possible.

Thank You in advance.

Impossible to give you any advice. Each school, faculty, course has its own requirements. You will have to do the research individually.

Thanks for your reply. I was actually asking of the general case. Does PR card holder get into Masters program in a canadian university easily ?
Not necessarily. Admission is based on your previous grades.

Would say it used to be easier. Still probably easier but the quality of applicant and competition has increased so would say it is probably the same especially for top programs. Most Canadian students wouldn't consider a masters if the don't have an average of 75%+. If you did poorly in your first 2 year but got 80%s in your last years your lower marks could be overlooked.
