Would you say it's likely/possible to get the PR visa after graduation?

[soofrustrated!!]

I'm an International Student (entering second year, Bachelor's degree) and I study here so I can maybe become a Permanent Resident after graduation. However, having two years after graduation to get a job and one year required work experience, in order to get Permanent Residence, seems very unfair and also unlikely to me!

Did anyone here who studied in Canada get Permanent Residence after Bachelor's degree graduation? (Anyone who didn't study engineering or business?)? Or is it highly unlikely?

You should have experience and job offer to get PR in Canada.

why do you think it is unfair at all ? The terms of a study permit are that you come to Canada to benefit from the education and once graduated you return with that education to your home country. A study permit is not an easy or guaranteed route to become a PR and you have to apply for and qualify same as anyone else. Being in the country on a study permit and then a PGWP gives you an advantage over people offshore but thats all. So do your best , graduate and go from there , you may be lucky to get PR you may not.

You could always go to Grad school in Ontario and apply for PR immediately after it. I am aware of people who did that after getting a degree.
