If u concerned about PR then u need to google individual provinces both school are located.for example memorial uni is in the province of newfoundland.just type in "provincial nominee in newfoundland" and read all about it . Will suggest u do your home work well and see which province u can easily meet their requirements after school. Some provinces are easier to meet the requirements for pr than others.
Cocosmite:
For those of US that have grounded knowledge of Canada and life post-Msc.
Please I have 2 admissions for fall.
1. Memorial University for MASc Oil and Gas Engineering


2. Dalhousie University for MSc Chemical engineering (Petroleum Engineering route)
Here I have a teaching assistant role of $1000 per term.

My question now is between these two opportunities which do I select with a mind on securing a PR and job prospects in Oil and Gas industry.

Wow..this is new to me.didn't know they now refuse people after medical now.I recall few years back once u called for medical... U start dancing and giving testimony in church nii o..cos d visa is sure...in short I dunno anyone that was refused after medical even up till this moment. My best wishes with those that are waiting.All will be well.
thesoj:
Reading about these post-medicals refusals is enough to drop one's morale.
It seems the criteria for getting a study permit TRV has become a moving target that is moving faster than one can adjust to it.

Nerdy joke alert: It is the ultimate random variable with an unknown probability density function, haha.

Let's not give up sha. I suppose the best we can do is to make our applications as perfect as humanly possible, in order to reduce the probability of being delayed. I should also add that though morale is low, the community on this thread makes things easier.

I won't do that unless it's a postgraduate diploma then u can make a case in your Statement of purpose and explain y and how it shows progress. Have seen graduate applying for diploma,most times they refuse the visa cos the officers read it as desperation just to live Nigeria. And have seen grad applying for postgrad diploma that got d vuda.U have to show a progression in your career or field of study and the sop is important that how u put ur message across since u not interviewed.mind u,some apply and go tru...but it a risk I won't take . that my personal opinion though. All the best.

post graduate power system engineering, grad with a 2.2 and don't really have idea on a specific location just want somewhere cheap with less admission wahala and ok. Thanks

darefestus:


Undergrad or postgraduate?

Undergrad tuition is contigent on a number of factors but If you are going for postgrad, with the right profile, you may not even have to pay a dime.

Let us know your profile and your choice location of study and you will get the best advice.

Re: Travelling To Canada Part 8 by Nobody: 6:10am On Jul 31, 2015

Also, in the future, don't type in all capital letters; it is the online equivalent of shouting. I'd also recommend against posting your cell number on a public forum.

I would recommend you take a one or two day break from your SOP, go do other things you enjoy and then come back to it. This is one of the ways to defeat writer's block.

Your time away from the SOP will reset your mind and give you the clarity that you need. I would recommend trying as hard as possible to finish writing at least one decent draft before looking at another person's SOP. You want to make sure your SOP is personalized; after you take the one or two day break, think deeply about what are your motivations to do an MPH and how you can use it to better Nigeria. It is possible that you don't know what to write because you have not thought deeply enough about your own motivations for getting an MPH.

Also, whatever you do, do not plagiarize another person's SOP!

I don't have a copy of my own sop anymore but I still remember what I wrote. Since there was no interview, I started by talking about myself cos I needed d officer to have an idea of who was applying for d visa,d kind of person I am.after which ,I talked about my program and why I selected that particular program out of every other one.Also, I mentioned what I intend doing with the knowledge after my studies in Canada and how I intend making my country better with the knowledge gained.I talked more about benefitting my myself and my country after my studies and the reason for that was to paint a picture that I intend returning home after my studies (coz I know that one of d major reasons people are denied visa). That just a summary of everything on my own sop.

I think he means SOP for school application and not Visa.

Good morning,

You need to read this thread from page 1 after which you can come backwith yyour questions and most engineering folks here will be able to answer you.

As regards finding a school, search for 'list of institutions or universities in Canada' on Google then go through their website one by one to see which one you like and meet their requirements. Thats what I did because honestly nobody can help you pick a school. If you are looking to settle there after school, look for provinces with the best PR policy and search for schools within that province. A Google search can also do this. University of Manitoba, Memorial University of Newfoundland and Brandon College seem to be the cheapest.

In the alternative, search for a guy called richcasey and go through his posts. He posted links which will be useful to you.

Crich,

Just read of your delay. I won't act like I know what happened (I'm not religious and the issue confused me beyond words) but all will be okay. I am happy you are on your feet, you are a strong woman. You will laugh about this someday in Canada. All the best.

Ah! Don't do it. I understand you may be desperate, but even mentioning such on this forum is not good for Nigerian applicants, most of whom use honest documents. Also, you do know that US VOs are on Nairaland, so it isn't far fetched that Canadian VOs browse this thread to see what new tricks people are up to.

In any case, yes they do verify whenever there is doubt in which case they would definitely find out and you would be banned from Canada for probably five to ten years (which basically means ban from US and EU and other countries that share such data with each other).

If you don't have the money to pay for at least one year's tuition and living costs, then I'd recommend you figure out a way to get the money first. You will suffer in Canada if you go there empty-handed.


Canada and the United States do not share data on applicants, bro.

I'm sure you can get samples BUT
Be mindful of plagiarism and be sure to make it specific to the university/college you're applying to

The VOs have the means to and can verify few documents like the Letter of admission, Authenticity of bank account (not the amount within), Company docs like CACs.

Also, the United states and Canadian embassies do NOT in any way share info or data of their applicants to each other, except the applicant is a wanted fugitive of some sort.

I am NOT advising you to present false info or docs, if you do so and get found out you will definitely get banned and possibly get charged with fraud and forgery - that's 16years in jail.

Do the right thing.

Its so easy for any of us to say 'there was a clitch in their system'...Permit me to say, this is no clitch. CIC is prolly sending a message. I think there is a second overal assessment by an independent senior VO for those done with medicals.in this case, the guy has veto power to change decisions

My thought exactly.

Just strolled into GTbank do some transaction. So I decided to ask about PTA....i was told it's no longer available since you can use your mastercard from anywhere in the world...


While first bank told me I have to have an account with them running for nothing less than 6months...

This just summarizes the magnitude of theft this GTBank people are into....

They know they extort money from mastercard holders all over..

Iya Ejima, please can you get her list of documents, how long it took, etc. been wondering if this trend is just for study permits. Team 12 once mentioned it but she didn't dwell much on it. I'm interested in it too.
This is what I got from her:
She filled d IMM forms for OWP, TRV application and family information; attached letter of sponsorship from sponsor and related financial docs, police report, marriage cert.. Her hubby got a letter of enrolment from his Sch in ON, submitted his statement of account and copy of study permit(must be valid).. Got called for Medicals and u knw d rest.lol.. Took 20working days.
PS: d date of expiry on d study permit will be d same date of expiry on d SOWP so she recommends d partner with d study permit ensures it's got a longer period of validity.
