You are starting paperwork, so you have already gotten accepted somewhere?
Master of Management Analytics at Queen's. Going for 30 more points for a Canadian master's degree. Though I need to research how to handle the fact that they say they don't give student visas if they think you won't leave.

I'm a bit confused here, I thought the target was to get 300 000 new PR's in 2017 but you said the target it closer to 130 000?

What's the difference between an ITA and PR goal?
You are correct, the target is 300,000 total new PRs, however I am only interested in those who can get in through Express Entry, the total for which is around 130,000. The other 170,000 consist of refugees, family streams, business, caregiver, humanitarian etc

There are other ways?

I was under the impression that EE was the mainstream and largest way in.
EE is only for economic migrants - for most economic migrants EE is the only way in now. However, Canada is also accepting non-economic immigrants through non-economic streams as well, which don't go through Express Entry.
