Send the unofficial student copy to gradapply@mun.ca and tell them that the official one has been sent by your university and is in transit.

bombodon44:


Website wetin, u need to get to school to get your students copy and your tracking number. That way u would be sure they have sent it...forget futo website o, that one na packaging

walexy06:

okay, this I what I feel you should do. mail the School of Graduate Studies and let them know the situation, you can suggest further in your mail if you should send the unofficial transcript (from a company's email) to them. Their reply would be yes. though this is just for the admission consideration pending the official transcript get to them. so you will not see 'Received' against the transcript until the official copy is received. I did same before my official transcript was received. p. s...they can use the unofficial transcript for admission consideration. just mail them you have unofficial transcript. all the best

Frankrobbn1:


Follow this STEP-BY-STEP PROCEDURE to link your paper application online.

Best of luck

Austacus:


Your funds is very good and it can give you a visa and your current employment are good also. so now, you will have to work on your family tie and purpose of Visit.
Just to let you know that Dubai and South Africa is not regarded as a travel history (as far as Canada visa is concerned) well, they don't just refuse visa on zero travel history, though they will mention it with other reasons
Tackle the other reasons and travel history will fly away.
Your US denial doesn't have any negative influence on your Canada visa... it does, if you were banned.
If you're not in a rush, order your Gcms to know the exact thoughts of the VO that handled your application.
July is summer so you have time to order for your Gcms

justwise:


I'm sorry but this is misleading and not really helpful.

Traveling to those two countries especially South Africa counts as travel history and US visa denial could help negative effect not only when you are banned from US

Naijaforeigner:
Owoch I hope you can read the testimonies of people who applied since last year June and July? I will advice you don't withdraw your application.

Hello guys, I just started following this thread and seems its been helpful to a lot of people. Pleas I need directions to go about my student Visa application, and what documents I need. I also want to find out from gurus in the house what you guys think about engaging an agent. Please I need your response. Thanks

Glowingx:

In same boat but for UG, anyway the academic advisor said course outline when submitted to admission is dispatched to department for evaluation and approval. Might take 6-8 weeks or less depends on how fast admission gets result back.
Hope you find this useful. So be calm and hopeful

@Justwise, The information put forward by you is false.

US visa refusal has no direct negative effect to a Canada Study Visa and will not be an automatic reason for a refusal. It is noted that Canada, USA, Australia, New Zealand and other first-rate European countries collaborate with each other by sharing and making information available on visa matters to every one.

With that said, when filling a Canada Study permit IMM1294E application form, under the background information section 2: A question is thrown to every applicant:
Have you ever been refused a visa or permit, denied entry or ordered to leave Canada OR any other country?

On the account that the applicant can veraciously and truthfully answer the above question as stated on the form, signifying that he/she has been refused a visa to the US, also indicating the reason for the refusal, and the date of visa rejection. There is no red flag and would not adversely affect the outcome of the Canada Study Permit.

After reviewing this part (background check), the visa officer move on to check the application entirety to know if the applicant ties is sufficient enough to compel their departure after studies and the likelihood of the applicant not to over stay their visit to Canada after the authorized period of stay. The visa officer will also check if the applicant have legitimate and adequate financial resources to support their planned study in Canada and to ascertain that the applicant wouldn't be a burden to the Canadian government or have any recourse to public funds during the course of study in Canada.

Consequently, provided that the applicant can show sufficient ties to their home country, the reasonableness of undertaking the program in Canada and adequate and legitimate source of funds to cater for their stay. The visa officer has no objection but to approve the application based on the information presented by the applicant.

Cc: Emiyrab will tell better about the above information presented by me.

Therefore, to recapitulate, NO a US visa refusal without a ban or criminal record has no negative effect for a Canadian study visa.

As regards to South Africa and Dubai being a good travel history. The answer is NO. A good travel histories for a Canadian study visa are trips to first-rate countries namely.... US, New Zealand, UK, Australia, Ireland, Paris, Turkey etc.

I was reviewing an applicant GCMS note last week, and the visa officer stated:
"The applicant's prior travel history is insufficient to count as a positive factor in my assessment." Mind you, the applicant has travelled to Ghana, South Africa and Dubai. This is a clear evidence that these countries do not count as a travel history.

Cc: Austacus is very right with his stand point.

Cheers!
