Hi,

I'm a graduate international full-time student 2018-2020. My question is:

1. Am I allowed to take just two courses in the summer > which makes me a part-time student for that term, does that affect my PGWP?

Also, during the summer term, if I am a part-time student Or if I enroll for another course, As a full-time student, Can I work for 40hrs/week?

Please advise.

Thank you in advance,

Annsh

If summer is a scheduled break, taking a few courses will not affect your PGWP and you will still be allowed to work full time.

So it's still okay to be part-time (opt less than 3 courses) or a full-time student? and work full time? Does it matter during my present scheduled break?

You can take as many courses as you want while on a scheduled break.
