1. It can fly. It really just depends on how well you can convince the VO. The fact that you are fresh out of school might help you. BUT you will need to convince the VO with a really good SOP, and strong arguments and/or evidence of your reasons to want to do a business PGD in Canada.

A business PGD is related to banking and finance but make sure you are crisp and clear as to why exactly you want to go to Canada when you can also study the same exact course in Nigeria. I repeat, you will need to cross a high hurdle in order to convince the VO that you need to go to far away Canada to study a business PGD course that is easily obtainable in Nigeria. So please keep this in mind when you are putting together your application. Your application can be successful but it needs to be extremely convincing!

2. Your discharge certificate is not a prerequisite. Just provide sufficient evidence that you are doing NYSC, in addition to your current employment documents.

Omoarukheo:
Hi,
I have been a silent follower of this thread and I am very impressed, kudos to everyonpe
I have questions and I'll be happy if they are answered:
1, I applied to Seneca and conestoga college for business pgd, and I studied banking and finance in school, will that fly or not
2, I haven't finished nysc and I applied against January admission, is my nysc discharge certificate a prerequisite for applying for my visa, cos I intend to apply at the end of next month, I'm serving with an audit firm and they are ready to give any document to support my application
I would humbly accept any suggestions
Thanks and God bless

Hello @ Markab

Can you please send me a PM please, I couldn't send you from my account as my limit has been exhausted for now, please. It is very urgent I get to you.

Markab:
Well, I can feel your pain. The one my wife used was issued at the big elephant bank. Though they admit funds can be exported under the cbn forex policies and the letter is issued based on trust and no staff of the bank or the bank itself should be held responsible for blah blah blah... A disclaimer as they call it. So try your luck

Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 12 by thesoj: 11:00pm On May 23, 2017
I stand to be corrected, but I don't think it is accurate to say that @Omoarukheo's application has no chance of getting approved. While I get the point you may have been trying to make, none of us here are VOs and we don't know enough about the applicant to make a categorical statement that s/he technically has no chance of being approved. I do agree with you that given the recent spate of PGD denials his/her application may not have a high chance of approval unless s/he puts together an application that is very convincing.

michV:
@maziude thank you very much..@mcowubaba..thanks for the emphasis, I would have spoken more but lemme end it to that.

@the other moniker that arrogantly questioned my post, the last time I faced such encounter was the day I made it the last time to respond and express dismay to whoever that would naively come to attack me.I have no word to say to you.

Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 12 by Olanrewaju92(m): 6:16am On May 24, 2017
From my above highlighted, technically i don't think you stand any chance. All I see is ''purpose of visit refusal''. I may sound blunt but it is the gospel truth I make onto you.

I would want to seize this opportunity to encourage some of you guys here especially those who must have applied with pgd/c and got refused once/twice as the case may be. The broken heart you get when refused as a result that your second class lower degree result couldn't get you masters admission in Canada and you just want to spend millions for PGD. I would want to advice such fellows to narrow their search to Europe,especially GERMANY and embrace the free tuition education in their education even in masters. As long as your CPGA is from 3.0 or better in our grading system and schools have your programs completely(100%) taught in English,you stand a big chance. Why not embrace this opportunity than continuously giving yourself emotional pains. Don't tell me language barrier b/c your international program is never taught in German and it is also easier to learn the language if you know you don't want to continue staying in naija.

I made similar post last year. 6 guys who were silent readers on this canada thread after being refused are in Germany studying their masters program, tuition free, working and earning Euros, I got to join them in their international group c*** this morning as one sent me PM yesterday. One on their behalf, who left last month told me michV that your brought hope to my life. I may want to tell you that the very same guy had 3rd class and he is now in one of the top 15 schools in Germany studying masters right now. This morning he called me again and said michV send me your account number,to be contd wink .. Germany is the giant amidst the European nations and ranked no.3 in their educational system globally. Those going for pdg/pgc on here and getting refused for visa should embrace this opportunity.

As widely known TRUTH is always bitter, MichV has a point here but to whom this useful information is for make use of it as time is the most important thing to take cognisant of (very wicked cos him no get time to wait). Ki Eni ti oni eti ko gbo.

BTW, MichV u no dey reply pm's. How about that Uni-assist documentation processing, the status Don changed. Abeg reply my pm, we get yarn or burst me for that DIE BESPRECHUNG syd

Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 12 by maziude: 8:17am On May 24, 2017
My simple advise.

With a view not to sound repetitive,

1) No matter the admission offer you have (bsc, diploma, pgc,pgd,msc,phd), ensure you have an airtight application. Heck, I recently read a case where a phd applicant was refused visa even with funding because she failed to specify the funding details in her sop and didnt attach the funding offer(she thought she did). She later re applied and got it. Moral: cross check everything before submission, never assume the VO will request for any missing document that might favour you. The more the merrier.
2) Ensure there is some level of progression with respect to your academic offer. This will save you the stress of trying so much to explain the reason why you are going for your course. We keep saying this, things are changing, VOs are humans still leaving in this world, so they know too.

3)Availability of funds is not a criteria to be given VISA. It is one of rhe requirements. As such let every factor work hand in hand for your good.

4) By all means seek alternatives. There are many roads to a destination.

Do have a lovely day.

Please go ahead and submit your application. That letter is not a prerequisite.
If you want, you can source the letter while your visa is being processed, just in case...
But I dont think you should delay application because of that letter

Hi Everyone,

Please I will love to know if anyone has been able to get a foreign reference/bank assurance in any of the banks. If yes, please I will like to know how you went about it and what bank to be precise. Cos, I took the advice of one of us here and walked into the bank to make a request...two banks to be precise and they both told me that there is a template which they all follow and which is from the headquarters.

Also said it wont be feasible to change the norm.

Please in such a situation can i be advised on what do to. Cos I am running out of time as I haven't submitted my study permit application and i am suppose to resume 1st of September...

Please can anyone with a good heart advise me?

I look forward to your response.

Thanks.

Nope boss. Not advisable. Wait till the next application cycle.

Just out of curiousity, did you tell them you come from a country where english is the main language?
Because, I did that when applying to uottawa and was asked to show proof by submitting a letter from my school.

That might have helped though.

Instead of going through all the stress, someone told me you can get a bank draft in USD at UBA head office marina, Lagos at their International Operations Department. All you need do is open a dom account in US dollar and pay in all your money for living expenses in dollars and make arrangement to pay your school directly to the school. This can take care of the additional letter from VO, Gurus please look into this.
It will end in praise.

I will appreciate it if you're mature enough to address me. The point of forums like this is to help people. If you made a point I didn't agree with, it is your responsibility (that's if you're responsible cuz clearly I don't think so) to state your points clearly. Kindly refrain from being negative without critically understanding the persons options.

I don't get all this.... we are all learned colleagues irrespective of our perception. This forum has helped a lot of people and trust me every constructive criticism has shaped alot of applications including mine. My advice to us all is to look at every advice given and joyfully use the one applicable to our question after all we aren't paying to get this information and advice.
