Is a student participating in an exchange program who then enrols in a regular study program immediately eligible for an Off-Campus Work Permit?
A.: A student cannot apply for an Off-Campus Work Permit while participating in an exchange program. However, if the student enrols thereafter in a regular full-time study program leading to a Québec diploma, it is possible to include the period of the exchange program in order to satisfy, in part or in whole, the requirement of six months of full-time studies in the preceding 12 months.
