Take heart bro!
You should have tried MUN or Saskatchewan, these ones dey "lenient" pass alberta na.
E sure say ur 3.99 suppose grant u admission. If only you wrote GRE and u "injured their fada", it would av been a boost.
Sorry pls may i know the name of ur sch where u had ur Bsc?

Please I need your help. I got admission in a school in Canada and I did my visa application with the student advisor and at the same time an Canadian immigration consultant in Canada. I did my biometric in Lagos. Please can I asked for details on how I will track my application myself or must she be the only one that have access to my application. I thinking of sending her email but want to ask first.

I feel your pain bro. Did you secure supervisor before you apply? Most of these schools do require applicants to secure supervisor before they apply for Msc. Most times they dont consider only your cgpa, your letter of intent, reference letters etc do play a major role in deciding Masters application.
Its always advisable to apply to minimum 3 schools even if you have first class grade. You need to plan towards fall 2017. All the best.

Hi guys, I have been following the forum for a while and I need your help. I am in the process of organising my documents for my SOWP application. My husband is went for studies and is now working there. I have got marriage certificate from the registry with plans for church wedding set for early December. My passport still bears my maiden name and i want to know if I need to do the change of name process on my passport before I submit. I also need to know if how much I should have in my account. Please assist me with your replies.

Bros how you dey, i am trying to apply for Masters in Uni of Saskatchewen, i dont even know how to write lecturers to accept me for masters acan you help me with a sample i can use as guideline ??

Riddeek:


You must know that schs have standards, check the dept website of those schs and read their minimum requirements.

As for Saskatchewan, even before you apply officially, there is this pre-application form which you would be asked to fill (for your own good) which will then be circulated to the faculty members (supervisors/professors) to approve. Then if luckily, you get approved you would be contacted to apply formally.
NB: being asked to apply formally isn't a guarantee to admission.

As for research intent, Google is ur best friend. Don't beef him wink

But wait oooo, is it 3.06/4.0 or 3.06/5.0 ?
If it is over 5.0, then i am afraid, the Almighty needs to be involved with your app. Nevertheless, trust in the only one God, the Most High and hope for the best.

But have you considered other options incase ur cgpa doesn't meet their minimum requirements?
Re: Travelling To Canada Part 11 by expertman(m): 3:41am On Oct 12, 2016
Eeyah I feel you bro. Don't let that to weight you down.

The best you can do now is to sit tight and apply to another school with your Cgpa I think uni Manitoba will be good for you.

I just visit their website and sure they accept 3.0

Enjoy

@Ty and Reedeek

Thank you so much, My last 2 years was good had nothing less than 4.0/5 my previous years wasnt good, but i will also try Uni of Ottawa, Thank you so much.



Good evening,
From my small knowledge o, 3.06 is low, but not impossible. For Manitoba which is a university thstis very competitive though, I'd advise not to waste money there. I know of three schools that may admit you with a 2:2 if your last two years were very good they are umanitoba, u Saskatchewan, and Uottawa, so why not switch Manitoba for Ottawa.


Statement of intent is basically u telling the graduate school why you chose the school, what you hope to achieve,and how the course you applied for helps you achieve it, and also how your undergraduate years have prepared you for the stressful graduate course you want to take.

Goodluck

[quote author=Oluwayeminikans post=50117969][/quote]

From my research it is quite difficult to get any form of scholarship for coarse based masters. Most of the schools only give some funding for research based masters and to qualify your cgpa must be very high and your supervisor will be the type that usually gets lots of government grants to fund his or her research.
You can also email the school to ask them if they have any funding or scholarship for international students in your department.
All the best and please share any useful information you come across.

The thing is that is not the only thing you are going to be writing, that is in fact the easiest.
Even after a supervisor picks you, when applying formally you will still need to upload your research intent and alao why you want to pursue graduate studies over there.
As for cajoling supervisors, there is no specific format because you have to relate to them as per their research work. But ur first 2 statements matter a lot in deciding whether a prof will continue reading ur msg or just "mark as spam"... Yeah some actually do that.

You can start ur first paragraph like.
Dear Dr. Wang (use appropriate titles, don't use Mr. cuz all faculty members have a title)
My name is Obasanjo Jonathan Buhari, a graduate of the peace-keeping department in University of sambisa, Nigeria. I graduated in September 1684 with a GPA of 4.0/5.0 ( 80%) (this is important, state ur percentage, don't give ur supervisor work to do by analyzing ur result, if he can't see wat he is looking for straight up, chances are that he would just move to the next msg, afterall he receives hundreds of msgs from prospective students). My GRE score is bla bla bla i did not take the TOEFL since Nigeria is identified as an English-speaking nation.

I intend to pursue a masters program Msc in bla bla bla department in September 2017, and after going through their supervisors list, i discovered that you were the best choice as your research work focuses mainly on "anti-terrorism studies". Ever since my undergraduate program, i have been actively interested in " anti-terrorism" , i read your article "saving the northern nigeria" and also "making sambisa a peaceful heaven" which you co-authored with Tafawa Balewa,1952 (no forget put reference oooo, its part of research, of course ur examination don start), in which you explained its possibility using "amnesty-deceit methods" to lure out the floating entities and go hardcore on the remaining valence kingpins. I have been "actively" involved with the "anti-terrorism" campaign in Nigeria (abeg no put strong lie for here, u can easily get busted, "actively" mean say u get ID card/paper/reference from a group, wey u fit upload to prove am)
I have confirmed that i have met the minimum requirements for admission into antiterrorism studies as an international student (this is important, make him know say you dey eligible to apply) and i would be highly interested in working actively under yoyr supervision. I have also attached a copy of my C.V and transcript for your review. I would appreciate if you could kindly review the attached documents and let me know if i am qualified.
Thank you very much Sir for your time.

Sorry i had to use antiterrorism as a case study, u never indicated ur course, it would have been better if u did. Also, this is a draft, it is not to be used as it is, you can modify at your own convenience and come up with something more superb.
Last tip: (do not forget to add at least one extracurricular activity, trust me, it goes a long way in "bringing" you out)
Lastest tip: don't hold back, pour out ur involvements/achievements related to ur specialty.

Hello House, this is my first time here. Please I want to ask the house about applying to a Canadian business school. How expensive are they? and what are the chances of one getting a work permit with the certificates.
Re: Travelling To Canada Part 11 by Gymme(m): 9:02am On Oct 12, 2016
There is someone here in this forum (dalok1) that has applied since April this year and nothing yet from CIC. We too applied since May this year and nothing too.

He should email them asap. From my experience if he is applying as a student.

He should check the resumption date he input on his application.

For instance we in October now and on his app he choses January as resumption time then such is likely to cause delay in processing as later cuz would claim purpose of visit.

Nevertheless he should email them asap.
