Hello.

I'm new to this forum, so please bare with me.

I am a U.S citizen. I have been living and studying in Canada for the past 3 years.
During my last semester at school I learned about the Post Graduation Work Permit. After looking over the eligibility, everything checked out, my school was a private post-secondary school that followed the same rules as a public one.

A fellow student who recently graduated just received a rejection of her application for a PGWP upon the grounds that our school does not participate in the program.

I'm confused, because I cannot find a list of "participating" schools on any Canadian immigration website, and I feel this stipulation is not fair because it's not clearly defined on the CIC website.
Does anyone know where one might be able to find a list of participating schools for each province in Canada?

Thank you.
 
Use this link to choose the province and it will show you all designated schools.

Maybe as an assistance to others choosing this school/college share the name .

1. A school maybe on the Designated List, but it's courses may not be eligible for PGWP.
