I have been a guest on nairaland and discovered this thread lately. i have some questions.

Please do Canadian Universities assess MSc transcripts with Bsc transcripts if i am to apply for a Masters degree? I have a masters degree from UK, with a stellar grade i dont know if this is relevant? My CGPA in the last two years was of my UG was 3.49. Would i be admitted for a pre-masters course in University of Manitoba for instance? or gain direct entry to ottawa? I have been having the urge to apply to these schools based on what i have read here?. I don't know if i am following the wrong path.

Also is it really advisable not to disclose a previous masters degree such as that of UK in an application when your passport would show you have been granted a UK student visa?

What I have noticed is that your correspondence letter carries only your program end date plus 90 days!
Meaning commence date will be from the time you appear at PoE. However, your study start date is still the determinant..... So in any case, you'll still be required to provide a new letter if the original one expires before you get approval.
Is there such institution that will not agree to defer on the condition that your visa is being considered for approval for a later date?..... That's wicked!

Well.. Let's wait for inputs from people who may have had the experience otherwise, a guessed answer may not suffice.
I can only confirm to you that USA allows that... cos I know more than 2 people who have done it... in fact the schools will offer to process I-20 for you and help with your change of status to F-2. For Canada... I cannot confirm but there are applications you can do while on visiting.

Hello everyone.
Great job y'all are doing!
I intend applying to the University of Manitoba for a Masters program. I need to know how I can apply for UMGF.
Would I be automatically considered for the grant after my application is received by my prospective department or do I need to apply separately for it?
Please, I will appreciate a reply from anyone with some information about the University or currently schooling in the University.

Good day to u all.Please I need Gurus in the house to intervene in my matter and so urgent!!!! I am a Nigerian Registered Nurse(RN,RM I.e Diploma) with 7yrs working experience. I applied for PGD program at Niagara College( Critical Nursing Care)and I submitted my apps around June against Sept. After waiting for 14wks the apps was refused based on: purpose of visit,and they are not sure weda I will come back after my studies.Document submitted= All cic forms, educational certificates, part payment of tuition fees, letter of sponsorship,affidavit letter frm my uncle,statement of accounts,land documents,marriage cert. Introduction letter,recommendation letter,leave approval,upfront medical,police reports and statement of purpose.
Now,my advisor from Niagara called that I should give it one more trial and this time I shd go for Nursing Management and leadership(PGD) that I would tell VO that I want to be a Nurse Administrator in Nigeria after my studes in Canada but me I am thinking of converting my Registered Nurse diploma to BSC at Prince Edward Island University(the admission process is on going) maybe it would boost my chances of approval. Please advise me,cos I am confused right now,n I don't know what to do. Your contributions will be highly appreciated. Very urgent plss!!!!!

As for the grant, it is automatic wen u hv a supervisor from whose research grant you will be paid, u dnt need to apply for that. The grant is 17500 CAD / year. Ur supervisor will give u a funding letter which u will submit while applying for ur study visa

Frostbaby:

When you apply to U of M, u automatically get an entrance scholarship if ur CGPA is 3.5 and above. In ur application page, the UMGF form will be der but u cn apply till u r in ur second year of study. The entrance sch n UMGF cannot be given at the same time.
Hope that helps
