Wow! You are now somewhere on the Atlantic ocean. What a trip! You pop champagne, hi-fives went round, you even had a party!
Silly friends are jealous of you, funny admirers are gazing in awe, dumb proteges came with notepads and of course you have a lot to share after all you are 40,000 feet up on the Atlantic while some are still struggling to take off and others can't even fly.
But it's a trip from Lagos to New York! Celebrating over the Atlantic is as dumb as it gets. If you lose focus, or stop cruising, you will never arrive.
Know the difference between progress and accomplishment, it will keep you focused, it will keep you moving, above all, it will keep you humble.
People land at your dream destination everyday and just keep moving cos their destination is further and farther. Stay Humble, stay inspired, never settle.
Just thought to share this here!

maziude: Bosses,
Congratulations to everyone that got their approvals recently.
This is to show that delay is not denial.
For those who are in Canada already, I am sure most of our classes have started and the movie script is turning out as we "hoped" it would. The busy schedule will soon take most of your time, but I would admonish us all to at least take out time to appear here once in a while to provide answers to pertinent issues that incoming applicants might have. It is not a requirement but a plea. Any little help will be appreciated. And please stay focused; remember how hard it was to get the TRV (whether first application or more than one, it wasn't easy), so please remember that. If you must have fun, please do but remember to work hard too. In fact, PLAY HARD-WORK HARDER.
Also to the newbies or those who have one questions or the other to ask those in Canada already ( about application for admission, TRV, live in Canada etc), please, go straight to the point and ask. No matter how "stupid", you think the question is, please ask but be straight and concise about it.
To everyone still waiting for their TRV approvals, please hang in there, our thoughts and prayers are with you all. It will surely end in praises for us all.
To the bosses that have been providing answers to questions, may God bless you guys richly. You are my bosses of the century.
To those flying in this month and next month, congratulations once more (and carry my garri when coming sha).
I appreciate.
Peace
Mazi.
You are indeed a good person, always willing to help. May God continue to bless you. If them go gree I for bring one bag of garri for you 3 Likes |

Hope the expiry date on your passport isn't 2018? If it is that will be the reason, cos I don't think they issue visa beyond the validity of one's passport... I stand to be corrected if I am wrong. Buy you can always apply for extension when you renew your passport...

Hello House i have being a silent follower of this thread since i put in my application that was recently approved and will like to appreciate every member for their contributions.
My intention was to go Fall 2017 entry but still yet to receive my passport that was approved on 30/08/2017 and making travel arrangements and settling in won't be easy at this time. Hence, i am considering going for winter entry but the challenge i'm having is i used Uwaterloo for VISA application but no longer want to go their after considering several factors and will prefer U of Regina where i have admission offer valid till winter 2018 but waterloo informed me i can no longer defer admission since i have deferred once (May 2017 when application was still being processed).
Please how does changing DLI works for a postgraduate student like me. Can i change DLI from waterloo to Regina before entering Canada or what do you advice i do because i want to resuming studies for Winter 2018 at Regina but used waterloo to apply for VISA but waterloo does not accept a second deferal.
Your suggestions and advice will be greatly appreciated. 5 Likes |
