Danyl: @segzy,if you applying as a student then you dont need the letter of invitation,process the student route, that will be better for you instead of going as a visitor, however it all depends on you as a person, what ur interests are. since he is ready to sponsor you. if you get there as a visitor you might have to come back to nigeria to process a student visa.

mykey: Hi all,

This is actually my first time in this forum and I must say I am really impressed. I finished with a 3.70/5.0 CGPA in Computer Science from UNILAG and have a +4yrs working experience in the IT field working in a bank. I intend to study IT security in Canada (Jan 2013)in UOIT (University of Ontario Institute of Technology). I have submitted all my documents after a thorough search of schools offering a masters in computer/IT security in Canada and only found 2 - UOIT and concordia university college of Alberta.

UOIT is a 1yr program, unlike concordia which is 2yrs, and that's why I favour it. I wish I had a lot of university option in this field. Anyways, apart from what I have seen on the school's website and other internet write-ups, which are interesting, I would want to know more from people in this forum about UOIT and also of Concordia university college of Alberta. Is anyone studying there right now or is there anyone with an interest to study in UOIT or has some vital info on these schools?

Thanks.

@fhemmmy,am still waiting for the information

Can anybody please respond to my post.

dipo+:



You may not get info from anyone that has info on UOIT as the school is just one of several schools in CA. Most of the questions that have been answered pertain to information that is of general concern. Meanwhile, can I ask what program you are going for? An MSc or a Post-graduate certificate? I ask because even though 3.7 on a scale of 5.0 is a good GPA, most CA unis wont take you in for MSc. But you will never be sure except you have applied so I say go on

Fhemmmy:
