Dear All,

I am currently applying to the Master of Arts in Intercultural and International Communication program at Royal Roads university, in BC.

The program is 18 months of Campus face-to-face courses (it is mentioned as this in the university website 'Campus face-t-face), and it is mentioned on the program's website that it is 36 Credits. Also, there is no dissertation or Thesis, just 9 courses.

I need your advice regarding:

1- To gain points in the express entry pool for a Master Degree (and to gain points for that the master degree was in Canada), should the program be at least 2 years? What do you think about the above program in this regard?
2- As far as i know, i will gain a post graduation work permit equals the study time. In this case it should be 18 months provided that the study is full-time. do you think this is enough time to gain the PR in BC?
3- will this program help me in anyway to gain the nomination of BC?

Thanks and waiting to your comments!

To gain points in the express entry pool for a Master Degree (and to gain points for that the master degree was in Canada), students must have completed a diploma, certificate or degree program of at least two years.

The student must also have studied full-time and completed the program on campus.

Students who are currently studying can meet the requirement if they will complete their program before December 31, 2022.

I am not sure if you are writing about a work permit or study time.

A post-graduation work permit is only available to those who have completed their degree and are in the process of applying for permanent residency. It does not provide any benefits or advantages to someone who is still studying.
