ElCapt:. Thanks for your reply. I thought I will easily get a supervsor too. But apparently, they are all giving negative replies.Mcgill is my top choice because I was told that's its one of the best in canada, and I heard that the cost of living in montreal is cheaper than in other cities like bc and toronto. I also wanted to apply to MUN, but I was told dat its not so regarded. No offense to those going there. |

Have applied to Uottawa early this month and I'm hoping to apply to carleton by end of this month.. thanks It could take up to 3months but u need to keep in touch with their admissions office to get information on your application just incase any more documents are needed. If you're applying for a research programme,contact potential supervisors.Getting a supervisor can fast-track your admission. All the best |

Aloaye:D journey took roughly 18hrs plus....travel with any foodstuffs u think will need specially those african's stuff u won't find here... Be mindful of d allowed kilogram(kg) thou mine exceeded with 1kg...they ( nigeran officer) allowed everyfin I moved with..I didn't have an issue with'em thou they demanded that I should drop for'em but I trickishly evaded them...I didn't spend penny...u need to be smart with them |

Aloaye: Thanks Aloaye... 3 months is such a long time, have 3 admissions to UK (London and Leicester) and anoda 2 to Cyprus, and they only took three weeks or four at most.

amby7: The applications on-going now I believe maybe for January,if u keep in touch regularly with their admissions office,u may get ur admission by early October..processing ur TRV is faster now,u can get it within 45days or highest 2months. Though some schools don't hv the winter session but May and September applications could also open soon. UK schools process faster bcs the competition there may not be too high and they just need your money :-). Wish you the best! |

vinnygod:Thanks vinnygod. didnt have my sights on canada, was so sure i was going to UK to study and return to my job.. bt my fiance started bugging mi abt canada, my uncle relocated there (manitoba) and a classmate of mine is also in uottawa. also m just going for an additional degree dat i wont likely use for promotions and stuff, everything just changed suddenly last month. |

Aloaye:need to go asap.. frustrated with d dept. m wit at work. was in contact wit two of their admissons assistants at uottawa as they requested for clearer copies of my transcripts, asked to inform my referees to check their mail and fill the forms and other things. However the moment my infoweb admission file was complete i tried contacting them, but no more response since then. I wonder y Finished my carleton preliminary application just now.. just nid to pay and send all required docs applying for winter session to both schools, i pray they come out positive and on time. |

Aloaye: Hello house, Try to come with the little you can it will be useful. More so, they eat same staple food as Nigeria such as bread, rice, wheat, semolina, spaghetti, potatoes, black eye pea (white beans), amongst others. More so, there are African stores around to buy some food that may not be readily available. 1 Like |

Caulker: Hi everyone, I can advise. Was told by a friend to contact a member of the faculty. Which I did, I looked for a top faculty that suits my area of interest and gave my profile, my interest and the topics I will like to research. I also spoke about my experience and what I am doing presently as it relates to the course. I think he was impressed and responded he will like to have me as his student (packaging ![]() It turned out to be a smart move as the school recalculated my CGPA and slashed it badly meaning I didn't meet there cut off. I also had issue with my referee and they wanted proof from a course I once did. But in all the man was copied by the school and all correspondence went through him, inspite of all the challenges, which implies I am his candidate. They eventually gave me admission based on his recommendation and me providing further proofs. Also, I got a grant that covered my full tuition (teaching assistant despite the rebased GPA). But it took me almost 6 months for all investigations and admission to come through so, start early, get a top faculty member support, do your research well, pray and fire. Also try more than one school. Funny enough I was refused for the same course last year by a smaller university because I applied on my own. Wish you the best of luck 1 Like |
