@wealth350, for Form A transactions, the beneficiary must be the school. You will have to mail the school to get details of the account. I believe you intend to pay your school fees. wealth360: Urgent Attention please. For those that have paid tuition fees to University is Saskatchewan through Form A. Please I need to ask what was the beneficiary's details you need to transfer the money? Please is urgent. This question also applies to other that has used form A before. Thanks |

mcobex: No problem bro, I am also not a guru but I try to give the little I know. Though am not going to Toronto but I know people going there will need some little info from gurus like u that have need there for sometime atleast to make them settle I'm quickly. Concerning the matter at hand, work with the suggestions I gave earlier about transferring of the funds to your brother's account (be it the one he will open in canada or nigeria ). Hope his previous program(UG) is related to his intended program? a clear picture of his profile will help people here to give more and better advise, also try to order for his GCMS note as that will give detailed reasons why the vo decide not to approved his application Thanks Mcobex: Bachelors in Civil Engineering (UG) Going for Masters in Geotechnical Engineering (one of the areas of specialization for civil engineers) at UWO I just found out that we can open an RBC account for him here. We will do that and transfer his tuition fees into the account. I just hope that people have done that successfully in the past and the VO would not have a problem with that. |

jamie55: NB: You said you got info here about 7 years ago and u couldn't even come back to share ur experience with those of us(upcoming ) until u need info for ur younger brother, that's not fair at all. Imagine if everyone does that how will this GREAT thread continue? That's just my view sha.
@mcobex: Thanks for replying and no vex. I did share my experience at the time but I was certainly not a guru like some of you. More so, over time my information is bound to become irrelevant. For instance, back then there were no biometrics or VFS. Now that I have signed back in, I can answer some questions that some of you have about Canada in general. I'm in Ontario btw (Greater Toronto Area). I also think you should order for his gcms note. Then add proof of where it was stated that he shouldn't pay tuition before he gets a study permit. It seems insufficient funds is the latest for these VOs even when funds are available. |

mcobex: Bro this is 100% not true, applicants going for diploma gets their applications approved so please stop giving wrong advise to people on this. Yes we have see more people going for Masters getting trv but that's because the number of people going for Masters and PhD are more than those going for Diploma. The only thing u will say on this that I will allow is if an applicant is qualified to get a masters admission and he instead opted to go for a diploma but if someone isn't qualified for a masters program he/she has every right to apply for a PGD program and it will be APPROVED, everything depends on how the applicant package his/her application and GOD'S grace. so @Eilenora check schools that will accept ur 2:2 but if there isn't any in Canada then apply for PGD and state it in your sop that u would have LOVED to go for Masters but u didn't meet up the requirements for it and also tell the vo the importance of PGD (make sure u convince him). Thanks The PGD matter don tire me sef. The guy is just coming here to discourage people. There are more than 10 Nigerians coming to my previous school each semester(Fall, winter, summer and spring). Its a college and don't offer masters. All of them are coming for PGD programs. cc jnyuwa02----please stop the negative energy you are putting towards PGD applicants.

Nairaland guys are doing a fantastic job here. If somebody posits that PGd applicants have a slim chance of TRV, the person might be right in his own opinion based on what he has seen. Also in other perspective, another person will tell you that PGd is the best option based on what he also has seen. I have seen four approvals this year with two PGd, one diploma and one Masters. However, the number of refusals for Masters I have seen are more than the PGds. (Not on nairaland). And we have seen Masters applicants with funding been refused. I discussed with the consular about people changing career or people going for the course not related to the intended study, he said it is at the discretion of the VO. He said that he himself studied Financial Economics and he is doing a consular job. If he will treat an application and see an applicant like this, he won't look at it as unreasonable but others who are not in the same shoe will see it as illogical. It now depends on how you are able to argue your case with the visa officer and make it convincing.
He noted one point that if you have a brother in Canada who entered through the student route and when he got to Canada, he did not respect the terms of the visa, he may be a legal resident now but if you make the person your sponsor, the VO will doubt your intention to study. He/She will feel like your brother or sister want you to take the path he took to immigrate to Canada.
My point is this, there is no good application and there is no bad application. It all depends on how you package your dossier and how convincing your SOP is. The only bad application I know is the one with forged or not genuine documents and don't ever try it. It ruins career and life. Most importantly PRAYER! It can direct the VO to reason along with you even if you don't make any sense. I pray that we will not receive refusals again on this forum and from now we will be reading the praises of approvals.

Normally if someone applies for it from Nigeria it takes around 30 days to get here and cost around $23 but since you are in Canada you can order for it on his behalf and it will cost you around $5 but I don't know the time it will get to you (but obviously lesser than 30 days). You can order for it on cic's site (CAIPS FILE ). Concerning the bank the person used I can't remember but I know one or more persons o this forum will still remember the name |

A little advice to all.
1. If you completed your biometrics in *Collection point A and was gracious enough to get your passport request after the VO had reviewed your documents. If you don't submit your passport at the same collection point A but decide to submit at Collection point B it attracts a delicious sum of N10,240 This is for something the vfs staff call "PT"?! fees (I hope I got the name right). It is meant to be free if biometrics is in collection point A and requested passport is submitted in collection point A.
Ps *Nigeria has just 2 collection centers which are Lagos and Abuja.
2. After speaking to a VFS staff about the duration of time it takes between submitting the requested passport at VFS and collection of Stamped passport. I have come to understand its 5-10 working days.

God bleaa you bro thesoj: Start off by reading the content of the links in this post.
To answer your specific questions: 1. Make Google your close friend: type "mba tuition international students canada" and the first link gives you answers to your question (this shows how easy it is to use Google to answer your questions). 2. If you have a 2:1 CGPA and above and are willing to put together a strong application (convincing statement of purpose, etc) to the admissions officer, then you have a chance of being admitted. Each school has its own admission requirement, apply to 3-4 schools if you really want at least one admission offer.
Reading from Part 1 to Part 13 will take you several months because it's a total of about 6500 pages. Instead of doing that, what I suggest is you pick one part of the thread to read, e.g. part 8 or 9 or 10 or 11..., and then you can read further threads incrementally. I personally don't suggest reading from Part 1 unless you have like one year before you plan to start applying to schools.
I'd suggest you primarily use Google to find information about schools and admissions, then come back on here to read one or more parts of the thread once you are awaiting admission. You'd need this thread for the visa process much more than you would for admission. You are also welcome to come back and ask admission questions, but only after it is obvious that you have done your own research.
