Good day all...Please when are we submitting the guarantor's form? I could not find any provision for uploading it online.

Thanks for your reply@Tnablack. But do you know schools in Canada that can offer a graduate diploma to 3rd class graduates? I have tried looking for one but could find none.

Tnablack:
@DanielIUC

If you want your application to fly, go for a PGD. Diploma is no progression for one who have already obtained a degree. Getting the admission is not usually the issue but convincing the VO.

This is my opinion. The decision is yours to make and its solely up to you.

Thanks for your reply@Dwebb55. I actually tried looking for a PGD program in Canada but unfortunately couldn't find any, so I chose to go for this diploma which is related to Mechanical Engineering which is my first degree which I thought can serve as a TOP-UP. Concerning the SOP, can I state there clearly why I may be unable to support myself financially while responding to the reason for the previous application that was denied?

Dwebb55:


I can only give my opinion while others add theirs.

After having obtained a 3rd class, a PgD is progression in my opinion so the course you're pursuing is relevant. However you also need to see if your current duties are in line with your proposed studies and if not, address it in your SOP.

Next, address all reasons for the non approval of your previous visa application making sure you touch on each point.

You can get your aunt to move the funds she intends to spend on your sojourn into your account and get her to sign sn affidavit of sponsorship to show total commitment to the course.

Finally, you can check if the school you applied to is an accredited DLI (you can Google it) so as to be sure if you will be able to get a work permit after studying there.

Hope I've addressed most of your concerns

Good morning all. Once again I humbly request that you share your thoughts about this. I just hope to get it right this time.

Good day all,

Please your candid advice will be needful here.

I have secured an admission at Northern Alberta Institute of Technology Edmonton to study INDUSTRIAL HEAVY EQUIPMENT TECHNOLOGY (2 yrs diploma program)

I have tried applying for study permit last year into Canada which failed due to insufficient funds on the path of my sponsor and also on mine too. I was also refused because my SOP was not convincing enough because I chose going for a diploma program even when I have a degree already (but a 3rd class - Mech. Engr.).

I am about to apply again this month with the same diploma program with a convincing SOP explaining why I chose this lower program, with the help of my aunt whose savings account is funded to the tune of 50million naira (as full sponsor). Although, I am employed, my salary payments are not made through the bank but by hand (cash), I earn 100k monthly. Is it possible for me not to bring in my financial details at all and just claim that my aunt is funding everything?

Also, what other documents must follow my aunt's bank statement?

Still hoping to get reply ASAP.

Dear Nairalanders,

I graduated from FUTO 4 years ago and would like to know my chances of getting a study permit to run an applied degree program for 2 years in a different field.This is due to difficulty getting a school to run a PGD program as I graduated with a 3rd class.

Your response will be helpful.

Thanks for your response @nisimi09

Will contact you soonest.

Dear Nairalanders,

Please I need your help.

I am a graduate of Mechanical Engineering from FUTO. I applied for CNC Machinist Technician programme at Northern Alberta Institute of Technology (NAIT) in Edmonton and was given the admission for Winter 2018. This is a CERTIFICATE programme which will last for a year. I got a study leave request letter from my employer stating that I'll be leaving my job to further my studies in Canada which will be requisite to my job should I finish and return to Nigeria even though I had the intention of schooling and working later in Canada. The letter also promised that I'll be reabsorbed into my work on completion of the programme with reviewed remuneration. My cousin (sponsor) who resides in Alberta paid only the tuition deposit of 1000CAD out of a total sum of about 16,000CAD for this programme but I was eventually was denied the visa. The IRCC denial letter reads below;

• Pursuant to paragraph 220(a) of the IRPA, I am not satisfied that you have sufficient and available financial resources, without working in Canada, to pay the tuition fees for the course or program of studies that you intend to pursue.
• I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay, as stipulated in subsection 216(1) of the IRPR, based on the purpose of your visit.
• I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay, as stipulated in subsection 216(1) of the IRPR, based on your personal assets and financial status.
How do I go about this as I have a plan of reapplying this year? How much money should I have so as to refute all the claims of the Embassy?

Your contributions will be most appreciated.

Thanks.

Hello house,

Pls I just got an admission into NAIT in Edmonton - Alberta. I intend running a CNC Machinist Technician Certificate Program for 1 yr although I am a graduate of Mech Engrg. I would like to know if I can be considered for Study Permit.

My uncle working and residing in Alberta plans to sponsor me. I would also like to know how to go about all these as I am a novice

Pls help a brother...

Fellow nairalanders, please I would like to know if there are NAIT students on this platform. I would like to connect with them...

@holotee...Thanks for your response but does this mean that I can't send coloured photocopies of all my certificates? Cos I fear that anything could happen to my originals...

I also would like to know if you are a student there. Would love to contact you.

Thanks

Fellow nairalanders, please I just started my application for a certificate program at SAIT. I was told to submit my original certificates for assessment through WES. For those of us who applied from Nigeria, did you submit your original certificates? If no, please I need your guidance.

Hope to hear from you soon.

I am an intending student of SAIT too. Please when applying from Nigeria, did you submit your original certificates for the admission processing?
