Hi,

My name is Merwyn, I'm from India (Mumbai),
I'm an MBA graduate - Marketing (Major) and now i want to study in Canada with an intention to work and settle over there. I'm searching for 2 year Marketing/Advertising courses in Canadian Universities/Colleges as it would lead to 3 year work permit, which may guarantee me a PR in future.

I have few queries regarding the eligibility criteria for the course to apply for and the work permit granted:

- How is 2 year full time studies interpreted in Canada? Is it 16 months (8 months per year)? or 24 months (total study time)?

- If I apply for a course consisting of Co-op/Internship will it be considered within full time study period?

- Which of the following type of courses are eligible/not eligible for CEC and if eligible, can guarantee me a 3 year work permit after completion of 2 year study period
a. Graduate courses
b. Bachelors courses
c. Diploma
d. Advanced Diploma
e. Certificate courses
f. Post-Graduation Diploma
f. any other (I'm missing out)

- Can I do Two '1 year Post graduation diploma' course '8 months' each from same or different Colleges within 2-3 years, will I be eligible for 3 year work permit?

- How much balance do I have to show in my Bank A/c? Can i show the balance in my parents A/c? For how many months or years do i have to maintain the balance?

I will be grateful if someone can help me out with these queries..

Thanks,
Merwyn
