Hi,

You can change your school/course. There shall not be any above said problems.

what would happen if there is no course available in winter 2012 session in sheridan college then should i apply in may or september session ......also i have heard from so many people even from my visa consultants in India that i will face problems in future if i change my college so can you please explain me in detail

You can change your school/course-The problems you have mentioned above doesnt apply in the event you do

If no course available in winter 2012-Thats upto you now to weigh your position very well-Remember other students are also applying and also what the course has only 2 intake anually what shall you do.


Pple change course but with a lot of calculations and considerations-

 @ Jagjeet

I'm going for May'12 intake and planning to do something like you only. You got Visa for Jan'12 so you will be there next month. So, please keep updated this thread so that new comers like me can get the right information.

Hi,

1. You need to notify CPC-Vegreville, Alberta ONLY IF you change your study program from secondary to post secondary or post secondary to secondary level.

2. To notify, you need to fill out "Application to Change Conditions, Extend My Stay, or Remain in Canada [IMM 1249]"
