A bit competitive ke? Bros, replace the "Bit" with "Very". They accept about 10% of applicants i.e. 20 out of 200, with international students having just about 4-5 spaces out of the twenty. Recent statistics also show that there are more international applicants than domestic. So, international applicants have acceptance rate of probably 5%.

Except your meet all admission requirement perfectly with very strong GPA (95-100%), fantastic Statement of research intent, and or you have publications. You may want to consider other schools down the hierarchical ladder - please, UofToronto is not included. However, Na humans dey go there too not angels. So, you and I too can. Lets just have alternative(s).

It will end with praises. Shalom!

I use 'bit' so i wont discourage our frnd. Did u apply for thesis based.

I understand your choice of words. I had to be real with him since your approach was soft. Hard comes after soft.

Yes. I am going for thesis based and I know it will be a miracle if I am accepted. I look forward to the miracle anyway but have other alternatives. Might not even accept the UBC offer finally, if all my options say yes, Which am praying for and also praying that I also don't make the wrong choice finally. I only pray God make it easy for me by giving one worth standing ovation while others might just be clap. It is well and will end with praises.

Hello House,

I have applied for TRV since 15th Sept, yet no medical mail....no news from Canada's VOs.

Pls someone should advise me, I'm just sad.

Hello good people, I've just met one guy who says he's an agent but after a conversation I can tell he doesn't do more than tell one how to arrange their docs and advises on what docs to package when submitting. Basically all the info on here for free.
He seemed a bit knowledgeable on the application process. However, he said something I would like to ask here its authenticity.

When I asked if I should write CIC a brief and subtle reminder mentioning resumption date and how my school asked to mail them to "consider application in due time"...he said I shouldn't. When I asked why, he said it'd be like asking them to issue me a refusal. That I'd be asking them to rush my application and that's also asking them to refuse me the study permit.

It doesn't make as much sense as I go over it in my head, but can anyone corroborate that or tell me outright that the man is wrong.

NB- My application is 10 weeks and counting. Processing time shows 13 weeks now.

Hi, so I got an agent and applied to Lambton college submitted my application without receipt of payment. Even though I have paid my fees now. Initially submitted because the payment went through late. My application was sent back with the two reasons for denial being purpose of visit, personal assets and financial status. Although I'm not sure my SOP was really convincing though but it was ok. I am 24yrs finished school 2012, served 2013 worked in my dads hotel for 3yrs now and submitted the necessary leave letters employment letters etc personal statement of my dad cause he is my sponsor also submitted cac documents too. I got an admission for a post graduate Certificate in Information Technology Professional for Lambton college. In my bsc I had a 2nd class upper in computer information systems. I want to reapply and I need to address the reasons for denial. Any ideas? Please. Comments, suggestions, reservations all welcome. Thanks.

Going for the same course.

All those having PM issue, try replying using a laptop maybe it will work. Anytime I try to reply PM using my phone, it won't go through. But anytime I reply using a laptop, it works.

In my own opinion ,you don't need to make any reference to your previous app , treat this Msc as a new app and pray to God for Grace..they already have your records ,don't hurt yourself o .just do your thing dear

what's your position/job function in your dad's hotel? I would have suggested if previously when you applied,to go for a program related to the HOTEL business or any position you hold in the business than your undergraduate,this is because if you explained better in your SOP,the VO might see reasons to approve your visa since it's your dad's business.choice of convincing words,articulated sentences that is well structured may go a long way for any VO to see reasons to approve you. similarly making reference to your refusal on ''personal assets and financial status'',that does not apply to your dad but the burden is on you the applicant. did you submit a good ''personal bank account statement of yours? if NO,address that when reapplying because since you are working,such should be submitted too..i wouldn't say land document/shares for you,since i have seen your age.
in addition,i see no reason submitting leave letter from your dad's business if the program of study wouldn't benefit the business,such plays role if you are coming back to still assume position in thesame establishment. since you have 2.1, you can opt for IT related programs for masters if you search well for schools you met their requirements

@ osemigho are u sure UBC application is free.

StudentsNG:


Thanks @Vickyehi,

A correspondence from my faculty stated that I can resume either Jan, May or Sept. However, I was told to arrive somewhere around a month to resumption for any of the semesters I wish to join classes. The admission letter also stated same. So I think you can get clue from there. Cheers. Were you admitted into U of R as well?

Thanks.....mine is brandon university and I want to defer to fall 2017 but I was thinking of going by at least July......to resume classes by September

[quote author=Femfal07 post=52013950]Hello guys,

Please I applied for a study permit and I was refused based on no family ties in Canada and country of residence, travel history and no statement of purpose. Please I have documents to proof the other reasons , how do I proof a family tie in Canada since I already stated in my first application that I do not have family in Canada.

Expecting your response.



Just order for your gcms file to know why exactly they said so.........buy most importantly stick with one story....you may be surprises what you would see in the notes

Hello,

Please has anyone here applied for a masters in law at Uni of saskatchewan or other universities with moderate tuition? I want to apply straight now for a masters though i have a 2.2. This is pending the outcome of my gcms notes for visa refusal of HR PGC. Was of the opinion that getting admission for a masters may not fly because of the grade but perhaps i should give it a try. i want to know what it entails, whether or not a research paper is compulsory requirement. Your advice will be most appreciated. God bless!

Hello Opelovely,came across your post below. I also applied to msvu for MPR. Have you heard anything from them?

OpeLovely:
Anyone applying to MSVU and/or Uni of Calgary here?

Just order for your gcms file to know why exactly they said so.........but most importantly stick with one story....you may be surprised what you would see in the notes.

in as much as GCMS NOTE is important,suggestions from people's experience may be welcomed which play important role in understanding practically what the gcms note reads. for example, a gcms note can never point out specifically '' there is missing personal account statement of the applicant '' if you are a working class. some gcms notes i have read never pointed out such.if such applicant is oblivious of this,even if he/she continues reapplying and reapplying,still will be refused till such concern is addressed

@ osemigho are u sure UBC application is free.

I don't think it is. It was, when Nigerians, living in Nigeria were having problems making payments abroad(there was a message on their website to this effect then). The free application has since been stopped. I guess many people making applications there believe that it is still on(because payment is made after the submission of application). I think most applicants who didn't pay the application fee who have their application unprocessed. In the alternative is to confirm from the admission office.

Hello All...
Please, I advise that we should share any posts/discussions/ questions or contributions that are not deemed as "private & confidential" on the thread here instead of sending pm on general issues that others would have benefited from!

I have been overwhelmed of late trying to respond to loads of PMs.... many of which if shared on the thread would have NOT only been of inmense benefit to many others but would have had the opportunity for more/better ideas. Please be advised.
Regards.

Is 100% free once u select Nigeria as ur country of origin while filling ur form, bt the deadline has passed already for most of the courses tho, except if urs is among the open once

It is free. All thanks to nairaland for the information. I also applied there and to three other schools. I don't want to put all my eggs in one basket.

It is free. I think they waived it for Nigerians because of the international spending limit.
