Hi, I also have concerns with PGWP. I arrived to Canada last year with working holiday visa, then I've decided to stay but after deep research and consultations I found out that the only good an legal option for me its to go to school and then get a PGWP, find a job in a field and after 12 month experience apply for pernament recidency. I am enrolled at Toronto Film School, because they have a good program, intense 12 month of practice classes, which is good for me. I already have my masters and I don'thave time or money to do another master or bachelor..again. So I've decided to start with this school and before applying I was telling them all my plan and nobody ever correct me. And now, after 1 month of classes I randomly found out that even though they are a DLI you are not guaranteed of receiving PGWP after. That is possible but its not sure. They couldnt answer any of my questions, nor give me any numbers. I honestly don't know what to do. As we all know, fees for international students are enormous. In the same time, having 8 classes a week doesnt allow you to work as much as you have to, so you have problems with supporting yourself and you are constantly exhausted and have no life. But even though, i know that I'm learning and I want to stay here. But I don't think that I should be gambling that hige amount of money,for something that i don't actually have to do, and then be forced to live the contry with a dbt that i would never be able to pa back, because it would be more than 3 times more in my country. they only way to pay it back is to stay here, get a job and work my ass. And I'm ready to do that, but I want to be sure that it's gonna happen..so my question is: is there anyone here that finished Toronto Film School and got PGWP? I need some numbers to get an idea what I should do. And it has to be till the end of this week. So please help me. Also wanted to ask what would happen if I drop out of school? Will my study permit get cancelled? Are there any other ways to make it happen? And somehow be able to legaly stay here and be able to work? I suppose that if I dont finish my studies I wont get another study permit. And this was the only way to get PGWP. But now, if Im not even sure if I'm gonna get one, I dont know if I should continue with that. Does anyone have any advice for me? please help me, I seriously don't know what to do and i was trying to call everybody I could but nobody can give me an aswer. I would really appreciate your help. Thank you.
