I'm interested in this too. Can anyone provide some insights please?

It's a long story, anyhow I'll try to shorten it for you all. My work permit expires in mid-November this year. In the meantime, I have been accepted to a university for a 4-year BA degree. This university is located in another province from where I live. I haven't applied for a student permit...
