Hi guys. Will a masters student study permit be affected if the student drops or withdraws from one of their semester courses?

Thank you

If you don’t keep up full time studies then yes. Are you still full time?

Please how many credits do I need to take per semester to be considered full-time?

Depends on your school so check their website or ask what constitutes full time study.

The best is to contact your course coordinator/admin/registrar. They are the one you can get the most accurate answer.

One course should be ok. As long as you keep studying your SP will be valid.
Just be careful if you're gonna apply for PGWP later on. Maintain your FT student status.

And as others have mentioned, speak with your school advisors/immigration advisors.
