Hello everyone

I am going to be finishing my Bachelors degree in December and my visa will expire in March 2021. I want to get admission into a Masters program but I heard that once my bachelor's degree is over, my visa is also finished. My question is, will I have to leave Canada and apply for a new study permit or can I get admission into my program and then just extend my visa?

You should apply for an extension when you get new LOA, extensions seem to take 3-4 months right now. Once you apply you are on implied status and can continue to stay in Canada as student.
 
Also be aware that PGWP is a one time thing. You should be applying for the masters in your 4th year and hopefully get a conditional offer before you graduate.
