Hi, I am an international student. I just finished my Bachelor degree at UBC this May, and I am going for the Master degree at UBC this September. The master program is one year only. I just want to know, should I apply for the PGWP now, or one year later?

One agent told me it's better to apply it now, because I can get three years permit if I apply now, but I would only get one year permit after the master program. However, the UBC international house advisor said that I can combine two programs together, and apply PGWP one year later.

Anyone knows that whether I can combine two programs or not?

Thanksss

1, If you apply for a PGWP now, you can no longer attend school in September.
2. You have a choice, complete your education and you will probably get a 3 year PGWP when you complete your Masters.
