International students who wish to work in Canada after graduation may qualify for a Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP).
Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has introduced new PGWP eligibility requirements for students applying for a study permit. To qualify, students must graduate from a program in a priority field.
Students who applied for a study permit before November 1, 2024, are not affected by these changes and remain eligible to apply for a PGWP regardless of their field of study.
If you are interested in working in Canada after you graduate, ensure your program aligns with the PGWP eligibility guidelines from IRCC. Based on current information, the programs listed below have been assigned a CIP (Classification of Instructional Programs) code by Ontario's Ministry of Colleges and Universities that meet these requirements, and may allow you to acquire a PGWP after completing your studies.
Contact a Regional Manager based on your location if you have questions about Sault College programs, PGWP, and more.
