Is there any compromise happening due to my percentage being low in Canada for a Diploma?
10 Jul 2026 · Answered by Chaithrakala P L · 1 min read
Yes, your 57% graduation score may limit options for some competitive Post Graduate Diploma (PGD) programs in Canada. Many colleges set minimum percentage requirements, though some also consider your overall profile, including your strong IELTS score.
Recent changes to Canadian immigration policies have also made the Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) program more competitive, with fewer permits approved and stricter eligibility for certain colleges and programs.
Focusing on colleges with a holistic admissions approach can improve your chances.
