1. You can only work on campus for the first 6 months. You can work part time off campus if the school is on the list http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/study/institutions/participants.asp
2. Post Grad Work permit the school must meet the following criteria

" * a public post-secondary institution, such as a college, trade/technical school, university or CEGEP (in Quebec), or
* a private post-secondary institution that operates under the same rules and regulations as public institutions, and receives at least 50 percent of its financing for its overall operations from government grants (currently only private college-level educational institutions in Quebec qualify), or
* Canadian private institution authorized by provincial statute to confer degrees but only if you are enrolled in one of the programs of study leading to a degree as authorized by the province and not in all programs of study offered by the private institution.
