Hey guys, I am currently an international student on a study permit and about to start my co-op internship year. So I am about to have two immigration documents, a study permit and a coop work permit. Recently I was browsing through internet and I found a university in UK called Open University and I am very interested in one of their undergraduate program. The program is completely online and don't require any visa. They do sometimes require the students who are not in UK to arrange sit-in exams in local universities or local British consulate.
Since I'll begin my internship year and I'll have some free time after work, I was thinking about enroll in that online undergraduate program while also remaining enrolled in my current Canadian university. There aren't any policy against that in my school. But I am not sure whether it'll be legal under my Canadian visa since Open University is a legitimate accredited UK University.
So My questions are:
1.Am I allowed to do that under my study permit and my coop work permit?
2. Would this behavior affect my future PGWP application?
PS: I was thinking about doing it because I might get another degree this way which will beef up my Express Entry score in the future.
