Distance Learning - PGWP

[Kalvin22]

Hi.
So I am a 4th year international student in Canada. I came through a University Transfer Program (UTP) meaning I did one year in college (fully online because it was during Covid time) and then after got transferred to the University. I have taken few courses online in universiy as well. Now I have a question regarding 50% in person classes in Canada to be eligible for PGWP. While calculating the 50% courses, should I consider my college credits as well (like include those courses while counting my total number of online courses or It should only include the courses which I took in university? My university advisors have been giving vague advises (like sometimes they say its overall program sometimes they say you should only count courses for university as UTP was a separate program and I didnt receive PGWP for that) on this and I am confused now. Please help

Yes you should count the college courses as online courses because the courses are being used towards your university degree.

I called IRCC today, and the representative said since its two separate institutions, you should only count university courses since you ll be getting PGWP on that. I dont know if it made sense to me.
