Post-Graduation Work Permit
Post-graduation work permit (PGWP)
International students may be eligible for a post-graduation work permit (PGWP) if they graduated from LaSalle College Vancouver, a designated learning institution (DLI), and want to stay in Canada temporarily to work.
Graduation from a DLI doesn’t automatically make international students eligible for a PGWP.
The PGWP is only available once in a lifetime.
