Hi,

My name is Bijesh Nair. I came to study on a 1yr study permit but changed to a two year Post Grad IT prog. I renewed my study permit on on Aug 2011 for 1yr based on the new prog.

I finished my 1st yr in April 2011 with 73.8 Term GPA. I continued with my third semester in Sep 2011 but dropped out of the course before the Academic penalty deadline in Nov 2011.

I want to get get back to my studies from Sep 2012. I have already been accepted back to the program for my final year and have a letter of acceptance. I also have a letter of Acceptance to another one yr Post Grad IT prog.

Is it difficult to get the study permit renewed for the second time ?
Would they be checking what I did for the last year with the college ?

Someone suggested that I should just apply to get renewal stating that I want to study further and use the new one yr Prog LOA. But would they check with the college if I completed my last program ?


Please do suggest whats the best option as I am renewing my permit for the second time

Any suggestion would be highly appreciated.

Thanks,
Bijesh Nair

I don't know if it is difficult to get your permit renewed for a second time, but I think they want proof that you were a student FULL time during the entire period of validity of your study permit. If you were not a full timer during that period, they will ask for an explanation to clarify why you were not studying full time.

They probably would especially as you are renewing for the second time but this is not certain. When you dropped out of the initial program how long where you out of college/uni for while you still had your study permit?
