Hi,
I have completed my graduation on Business Administration with a percentage of 60. My ielts overall band is 6.5 (not less than 6 individually). I am looking forward to enroll in a college for a 2 years pg diploma since I wont be accepted in universities with my percentage. I have mostly looked through Centennial College, Seneca College and Durham College.
Problems & Questions:
1. Getting confused with the names, ex: diploma and graduate certificates. Also most of them are for 1 year only. So, I am unable to understand which one is for pg diploma.
2. I assume I can't apply for the post-secondary courses under diploma category right? Because I have already completed my undergrad.
3. So does it only leave me with graduate certificates?
4. Is graduate certificate considered as pg diploma?
5. Which term should I look for to justify as a pg diploma?

NOTE: I am looking for 2 years courses because I have plans to get settled in Toronto.
Also I am looking for Business related courses to match my background.

You won't get in Seneca because they want 65% at least. Centennial is always busy and most of the program becomes waitlist and students usually miss their intake. I have a few seats available in Durham and Canadore College(Toronto and Mississauga campus) related to business. let me know if you need help.

Thanks

Can you clear something for me? Like, all the college programs are enlisted as diploma. There is no separate section for pg diploma. So, are all those diploma courses considered as pg diploma as well?

Its very rare that BD applicants get accepted for anything but Bachelor and Masters. Inbox me and I will show you a record of refusal rates of those applicants who applied for PGD. You should consult with IDP.
