??? ::)Hi everyone, I want to enroll into the Film Production programa (one year) of Vancouver Film School. My plan is to get PGWP after I graduate and apply for PR later on.

I've done some research and I came across with this information about PGWPP, the pilot program, according to which, students from VFS (and other private post-secondary institutions) were eligible to apply for PGWP until August 31, 2012.

Please tell me, if I enroll into VFS now (2014), will I be eligible to apply for PGWP by the time I graduate?
Thank you.

Thank you.

You answered your own question: students from VFS (and other private post-secondary institutions) were eligible to apply for PGWP until August 31, 2012.

Since it is now April 2014, the deadline has clearly passed.

By the way, where did you read this? Check the CIC site just in case. All the information is there.
 
Thank you for your comment, Samroc. I read about the PGWP pilot program in vfs.edu/admissions/international/work-permits.

What I want to know is: without that program, will I still be eligible after graduation?

Only way to be eligible is to attend a school that is eligible for PGWP upon completion
