Oben209:pls, are you a graduate student? have you secured a supervisor before applying? I'm finding it hard to get contact of their faculty staff. |

Hello house! I've seen a number of written documents being submitted as part of visa application and it's looking a little confusing. I would very much appreciate if some could give very simple explanations on the differences between the following documents. Letter of Explanation (LOE) Statement of Purpose (SOP) Letter of Sponsorship Study Plan |

jnyuwa02:Very true bro, the person in question said he wanted to appeal that's why |
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 13 by mcobex: 9:20am On Jan 20, 2018 |
badtlimo:You and your brother can even apply on the same day, it's not a problem. The main thing is having funds to show for the two of you, once there's enough funds then you have no problem |

tall2ce:It started yesterday in Eko hotels, you can go today by 1pm but I think you will need to register online before going http://educanada.edufindme.com/user/register?location_id=768 |
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 13 by mcobex: 9:28am On Jan 20, 2018 |
obehivan:YES the visa officer will want to know what you have been doing since 2012, so if you don't have any genuine thing to cover with I will advise you go for masters. Who said your grade isn't enough to get you into a master program? find time to search for schools yourself instead of believing what someone told you that no school will accept you for masters |
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 13 by mcobex: 9:30am On Jan 20, 2018 |
Lemia:I think your question has been answered before. Yes you can go early(june/july), all you need is get the letter or print out the mail your supervisor sent you requesting you come early so as to get acclimatized. |
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 13 by mcobex: 9:36am On Jan 20, 2018 |
Lemia:SOP and LOE serve same purpose, it's just a way of explaining to the visa officer why you want to study in Canada, why you choose your intended school, how you intend funding your study......... cos Canadian consulate don't organise interviews for applicants so that's your own way of explaining anything that's needs to be explained(though it is not compulsory as so many people have submitted their applications without it and got it approved ). Letter of sponsorship as the name implies is a letter "mostly" from your sponsor stating why he wants to sponsor you and how he intends doing it by showing proof of funds and any other useful document . 1 Like |

Hello house, I sent an email to a Prof at Univ of Sask - just for PhD research supervision (Fall 2018) - he replied that based on my GPA he would support me for the deans scholarship at Univ of Sask; he requested documents from me like my transcript etc and asked me to fill out a particular form for consideration. After this , he informed me that he has submitted it to the department for consideration. My question is that , since I have not applied for admission at all; is it possible to be granted a dean's scholarship in Univ of Sask prior to applying? How long does it take to get response on this scholarship? My MSc GPA converted to univ of Sask equivalent was 85.5% and BEng was 4.43/5 - what are my chances? |

Plz I need help with a good college to go there for my masters in Business management so that I can start processing the school cuz I wanna leave here before the end of this year. Someone please help me with the name of a good school there and requirements |
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 13 by mcobex: 11:54am On Jan 20, 2018 |
Stanfit01:Sorry to say this, but have you made any research yourself? You have a phone and thank God for Google you can search all that there. We should all try to do some little work ourselves please. EduCanada fairs started yesterday at Eko hotel, so if you are in Lagos you can go to Eko hotel today (1pm-5pm), you will meet representatives from different schools from Canada and you might get on the spot admission 4 Likes |

Good day everyone. Please am new to this forum and am so glad i came across. Am about paying for my application fees in a Canadian college for a 1yr certificate program in automotive service technology (what we call motor mechanic here). I studied zoology in Nigeria here and finished with 2.2 in 2014. Finished NYSC in 2016(November). My sponsor is my cousin( mothers sis) who lives in Canada with his family. He is a motor vehicle and parts importer. After going through series of write ups here i decided to seek help so as not to get things wrong from start. My SOA balance is poor as i am unemployed and only helped my brother in his motor parts business last year after nysc. I want to know my chances of approval with my change in career part. Should i state that i would be living with my cousin in Canada cuz i don't intend paying for accommodation. Please can someone give me tips on how to package this embassy people because i don't want disappointments. [/quote] Please somebody should advice me pls. I just want to be careful from onset because i have no prior experience on study permit application |

Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 13 by mcobex: 2:15pm On Jan 20, 2018 |
xzile:Everything about it is wrong, you studied zoology and now want to go for mechanical engineering(with no experience ). Secondly never tell the visa officer you intend staying with your cousin as he/she will know you don't want to come back to Nigeria after studies (male sure your cousin provide enough funds to show you can study and live on your own in Canada without working there while schooling ). Another one is you going for a 1year certificate program which happens to be a red flag. My sincere advise is look for a school that offers zoology related course(masters) and it has to be a 2year program, after which your cousin can provide funds (your tuition fee + at least $10,000 for your living expenses). |
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 13 by Nobody: 2:23pm On Jan 20, 2018 |
xzile: Your chances of getting an approval is slim because (1) there is no correlation between Zoology and Automotive Service Technology and (2) you don't have any work experience in Automotive Service Technology. 2 Likes |
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 13 by xzile: 3:05pm On Jan 20, 2018 |
GlitteringStar:Thank you both for your sincere advice. I was not opportuned to work in Automotive industry but i did apprenticeship for 2yrs in 2008 to 2010 in Automotive Service and repair and was given a certificate though it was non formal. Throughout last year i was helping my brother out in automobile parts trade. Please will that make any difference? As for the funds, will my sponsor have to deposit money in my account or just prove it with his account? Bear in mind that am unemployed, thus i think questions will be raised how i made such money. |

Good afternoon all, pls I need few chips..first a gpa of 3.10/5 can it be estimated to 3:0/4? Want to apply to some schools in Canada for MBA.. not too familiar with Canada schools but do they offer assistantship to MBA student |
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 13 by Gifty28(f): 3:38pm On Jan 20, 2018 |
I was going through this thread, does it mean if you don't have any travel history, u won't get the visa ![]() |
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 13 by blessedmumi(f): 3:47pm On Jan 20, 2018 |
Gifty28: CGPA of 3.10/5 should be in the range of 2.4 on a scale of 4 (I stand to be corrected). Figure out your second questions using Google, it will be easier for u. People without prior travel history got their visa approved, it all depends on how well u package your application. |
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 13 by mcobex: 4:26pm On Jan 20, 2018 |
xzile:As regards funds, your sponsor should pay the money into your account since he is a third party or he can pay your tuition fee to the school then transfer your living expenses (at least $10000) into your personal account. There's no problem with you having such huge amount in your account as your cousin will state it in his letter of support that he deposited the amount into your account. As for your intended program I still think you should go for a program related to zoology and please let the program be a 2YEAR program so you don't have issue of purpose of visit |
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 13 by mcobex: 4:28pm On Jan 20, 2018 |
Gifty28:People without travel history have been getting their visas, so that shouldn't be a problem as long as you tackle other possible reasons for delay 1 Like |

Whether the professor said he will consider you or not, you should apply. I think the deadline has passed cause it was Jan 15th. Aghatise: |

Slik07:Thank you very much boss, I really appreciate. I Was already worried kind-of. I did received the mail after 4 weeks of applying. Does that indicate a positive (green flag)? |
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 13 by ademcoboy(m): 8:43pm On Jan 20, 2018 |
Aghatise: Yes... The University of Saskatchewan Dean's scholarship is a prestigious scholarship aimed at attracting intelligent graduate students to their university. You can get the scholarship even before applying for admission but you must have published some academic papers alongside your high academic achievements before you can be selected. So since you have a supervisor already you can go ahead an submit you admission application. U will have to pay an application fee of $90cad. Once you have been selected for the scholarship, your supervisor or the scholarship committee will send you a mail. I know a senior friend who got the Deans Scholarship in 2016 for his PHD.. best of luck in your applications. |
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 13 by Nobody: 11:07pm On Jan 20, 2018 |
emmy4Gold: Yes. Be hopeful and positive. It shall end in praise. |
