Hello @all, while filling some necessary details on IRCC portal, I saw a column that indicated "tell us what you will do in canada" include dates. The question is, are they talking about the start date and end date of the program or events you are expected to have in canada. Can someone experienced shed more light to this please?

Amen!

Congrats again, May Canada favour you.

Hello everyone. I got admission for September 2022 to fanshawe college and I paid my tuition fee. So I’m trying to start the visa application. Please i need guidance on how to go about it and also my brother is my sponsor.

Has anyone tried applying from other African countries?

Atigba:
I have noticed here it takes alot of time for a study permit visa application to be processed in Nigeria.

Why is it so?.

Is it peculiar to Nigerians or Africans only?.

Because, when I did my biometric in Stockholm today. I asked the babe how many months to process my study permit application. She said 4 weeks maximum.

I also noticed they don't ask for medical and police report in EU.

Why are they giving applicants from Nigeria headache.

C6 each

That's serious.

That was how one Canadian college (Name withheld) told me I don't meet their maths requirement (Even with my B.Sc. Accounting and M.Sc. Management), just because I got C6 in O' Level mathematics. If it were possible, I would have challenged them to a maths competition.

Just keep searching, I believe there are other schools without these requirements.

MUN.... can take you on C6..

Good morning everyone,
Congratulations to all those who have gotten admission and ppr
I haven’t gotten admission yet but I am trying to prepare incase I get.
Can a document showing the money my mum has with her cooperative society be added to application
Also I have some money with a savings and investment company which I don’t want to withdraw into my account, can I get a document from them and add to my visa application

Yes! That's why I said you will provide your LOA to the bank, it's the evidence that you're not going to be back in Nigeria in a while

Which course

Hello House,

Just found out a Canadian visa office email address for their consulate at port harcourt. Port-Harcourt@international.gc.ca.

Does anyone know how functional it is?

Thank you Osemigho..

Masters in computer science is one of the most lucrative degrees right now, thanks to the growing power of computer technology, covid, and booming remote work and learning. Most 2 year masters have summer breaks. However, students often spend it writing their thesis or project. Considering how booming computer science is right now, I will focus on school and graduating rather than summer hustle.

To give you an idea why this is the best time to graduate and enter job market, I know a candidate with about 4-years experience and msc computer science from Nigeria. He is rounding up his PhD in computer science in Canada. His supervisor was delaying his graduation and he became PR while waiting for his thesis defence. Since he is a PR, he focused on applying for professional jobs and got multiple offers over $130,000 per year. He finally accepted one of about $140k.

In summary, get in and complete your program fast. Focus less on summer hustle, but feel free to do summer internship or student position in computer science related field and if allowed. This will give you the highly valuable canadian experience on your resume. The job market is till very favorable and sweet for your field. All the best.

Wow! I perfectly understood everything you said. Thank you so much brother you deserve the best.

I think I will go for SAIT but writing the SOP to make the VO. Understand might be little bit difficult but I'm sure with collective ideas it will work.

The degree would it be called Bachelor degree or Applied Bachelor degree? And after successful completion of this program/degree would I be able to go for masters straight?

https://www.sait.ca/programs-and-courses/degrees/bachelor-of-applied-business-administration-full-time

Please check the program website. Fall 2022 is waitlisted and they should open January 2023 admission by March ending/early April. The program admission is competitive. So check the website and make sure you meet and gather its requirements if you are interested.

About masters, sure you will be able to use it to get masters admision as Bachelors degree is usually a requirement for that. However, you should not go for that striaght after you Bachelors. Get your 2-3 years PGWP and work. Canadian employers value experience more than education. However, they are more generous to fresh bachelor's and diploma graduate. Get the experience first and you can go back for your masters later. All the best.

Hello everyone, I don come again

Please I need Canada embassy address to send my Statement of account to.

What are the procedures?
How do I go about the whole thing?
Your answer would be highly appreciated
Thanks

1. What do you think about a 2years PGD course in Business Management-Human Resource? It has 4months Co-op.

2. Someone mentioned on quora that more establishments in Canada will not hand over their HR department to a black man because they would feel the black can’t completely understand their work culture and laws?

1. That is a wonderful course because it is 2 years and have co-op. You did a great job identifying and going for it. When you get to your school, get excellent grade and highlight on your resume during your co-op search. Your co-op will give you the highly valuable Canadian experience.

2. That's a lie. Although minorities, black included, have more unemployment rate, there are several black people in and leading HR departments. In fact, one HR leader in the City of Calagry is a black woman originally from Nigeria. Her name is Adediwura ODIASE, MBA, MSc., CPHR.

The problem most immigrant minority face is that Canadian employers like to build their own leaders and most immigrant come with international experience and education. As such, they end up being over qualified for most entry level position and under qualified (due to lack of Canadian experience) for most senior level position. At the end, the compete heavily for the limited position available for them.

Most masters and PhD graduate, particularly in humanities field, with zero Canadian experience will find it challenging to get a professional job after school. Diploma and bachelor's degree graduate find it easier because of many entry level position. For the masters and phD international student, there are ways to navigate the issue but you won't learn it in school. You will learn them from professionals outside school. So don't just study in school, network with Nigerian and non-nigerian professionals while you are in school. If you find one close enough to you, they might share the tips of getting a professional job in Canada.

Davidbanky:


Bro! My program is 1yr .. like 12 Months and my last 4 months is Coop internship and it’s in mobile application development. Hope it’s not a wrong move ?

You have to ask yourself if it is a wrong move. Why did you apply for the program? I won't do it if i was a Nigerian aspiring to study in Canada because the field of mobile application development is too narrow and 1 year is a no no to me. These are just my personal opinions and reasons. You must have you own opinions and reasons for choosing the course. If they are convincing to you, then no problem.
