My university needed the degree before I arrived. And it was one less important document to lose! Enjoy Cranfield! I visited a friend there once and it seems like a great place to study.


Thank you!

Is it difficult to find a job and get a work visa once I have graduated?
Do companies shy away from international students for full time employment?

Remember that with the visa you can only work up to 20 hours/week.


That's not an issue for me, as I don't plan to work more than 20 hours a week. I wouldn't be able to afford the time anyways, during the school term.
Did anyone here go to the PNE fair in Vancouver last night, saw a rock band play and it was amazing.

It totally depends what type of qualification you have. If you work in an industry where there is a shortage of qualified workers you have a way better chance of landing a job and work visa. I actually have dual citizenship so I may not be the best person to ask. I'm sure your university can answer some questions for you.

You have to be 18-30 and you can only get a one year working visa although you can apply for a second year while you are in Canada
