Based on the updated guidelines from Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC), below is the list of our programs that are PGWP eligible, either by meeting the IRCC field of study requirements as of November 1st 2024 (CIP codes), or because they are Degree programs (exempt from meeting the IRCC field of study requirements as of March 11, 2025).
