What’s New and Important:

New Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) Criteria: If you apply for a study permit after November 1, 2024, your PGWP eligibility will depend on your program of study. Students who applied for a study permit before this date remain eligible for the PGWP across all of Centennial’s full-time programs, regardless of field of study.
PGWP-Aligned Programs: Centennial offers a variety of programs that align with Canada’s priority labour market categories, giving you a strong foundation for future employment. Choose from Centennial’s PGWP-Aligned Programs across certificate, diploma, advanced diploma, degree, and graduate certificate options.
Provincial Attestation Letter (PAL): International students can apply to most programs at Centennial College and may qualify for a Provincial Attestation Letter (PAL) to study in Ontario. At the study permit application stage, eligibility for a Post-Graduation Work Permit is not a requirement. IRCC will approve study permits for all full-time programs at Centennial, including those not PGWP-eligible, provided applicants meet other general requirements.
