Study permit for graduate student in his 40's

[konaessen]

I am 41 yr old and have been recently accepted by UBC to a 2-yr full time non-reseach master program. From what I heard, it is more likely for a study permit application to be rejected if the applicant is at my age. Anyone who can share some first hand experience in this regard?

Thanks!

Less likely for a masters and PhD students but it must make sense based on your education, work history and family financial situation.

What about if I bring my wife and 9-yr-old kid with me?

Very dependent on circumstances including savings.
