Study permit expires on the same day as last day of classes

[zmin]

Hi everybody! I have concern about weird study permit expiry date. I’ve just received approval for my student visa. But it shows on the IRCC website that my study permit ends on the same day as last day of classes.
I was expecting it to be three months longer after finishing course so that I have time to apply for post-graduation work permit. What shall I do in this case?
Thank you!

Apply to extend your SP one month before expiry.

One month is enough to get your study permit extended?

Sure. If OP wants to complete program. Can always ask when entering Canada. CBSA can say no.

Thanks for answering! But the expiry date is exactly the same day as course finishes, so I wonder if I can still be counted as a student after that.
