I came here to study for PhD but decided to leave with a MA. I applied for PGSW, and I was informed by CIC officer that my study permit which is suppose to expire in 2013, is not valid any more.
Second study permits are issued for specific course and  institutions. Now, if you change your course or institution you need a new study permit. you will need to apply for a  new one. For your satisfaction call CIC.

I was told, I must obtain a study permit or extend my work permit in 90 days after the expiry of PGSW, after 90 days an enforcement will be released.
