Two outlets report that international students are being denied post-graduate work permits because of eligibility rules tied to the type of program completed. According to the accounts, applicants are required to finish a program that results in a recognized credential—such as a degree, diploma, or certificate—from a designated learning institution. The reports state that the requirements exclude certain types of study, including general interest programs, ESL/FSL programs, and other non-credit programs. In other words, students who completed programs that do not lead to the specified credential categories are not being approved for the post-graduate work permit, even if they otherwise pursued studies at an institution. Both publications frame the issue as applicants being told they are not being considered for post-graduate work authorization because their completed coursework does not meet the credential-based criteria described for the permit.
