A P P R O V A L A L E R T !!! Program: MSc Biosystem Engineering, University Of Manitoba(Fall,2019)
This is my 3rd Application after 2 previous refusals and I have been a silent reader on this forum:
Application timeline Route – Paper, processed in Nairobi Kenya Applied 15th May 2019 Biometrics not required as the previous one is valid. I was able to link it online on the 26th May and then Background check already running. Eligibility review 12th June Medical Request 14th June Medical Done 17th June at IOM Ikeja Medical Passed 20th June BVL-July 9th Approval- July 10th Then I got a text message late evening on Thursday 11th July from VFS Lagos that Passport is ready for pick up. Passport pick up 12th July 2019(Within 2mins at VFS counter in Lekki, which was the fastest of all the waiting process from the beginning of the application)
Documents submitted:
Academic Qualification
B.Eng Degree in Agricultural Engineering Msc Admission letter Transcript from the University CV O Level Cert
Proof of Financial Support Personal statement of account comprising current account balance of N3M and Fixed deposit of N3M Reference Letter from the Bank to support SOA Letter of Sponsorship as Postgraduate research assistant with funding of CAD18,000 for each year of my study. Tuition is CAD12, 400 but also got an IGSES Scholarship of CAD5, 400 which is usually applied on the Tuition to effectively reduce it to CAD7, 000
Other documents

NYSC certificate A work ID, Promotion letters and introduction letter from work Landed property with Survey and Deed Of Assignment Marriage cert and kids birth cert Wife's passport biodata page SOP and LOE address previous refusals in details
A few of my success stories and testimonies:
I first applied for a study visa to Canada in April 2018 and was refused June same year with Purpose of Visit. Second Application was in Feb 2019 and was refused the same month with Purpose of visit and travel history.
In both cases, I used the services of an agent and I applied with the M.eng (One year course based) admission letter Shortly before my second application, I contacted Frankrobbn to assist proofread my SOP. Despite his kind assistance then with every effort put in place, I was still delayed. Then after my second refusal, I contacted Bracha who encouraged me not to give up and assisted with part of my SOP correction.
Sometimes in Jan this year, I had thought of switching from the Meng to Msc but getting supervisor was the issue. After a series of emails with usual "no funding, no space" responses, God finally came through for me and that marks the turning point in my Canada journey. I got a Prof willing to supervise me and provided the Stipend that fully covers my study around April and then I decided to reapply for the 3rd time in May 2019.
This time around,Qudkom came to my rescue. We talk extensively, exchange emails and I had to even travel to a neighboring city to meet this wonderful and kind guy that I didn't know from anywhere just to ensure I get it right this time. Anyway, no more agent as I am prepared to take all the advice of the gurus to do it by myself.
Few days to my submission date, I had to literally go through all of Franks past post to ensure all my T's have been crossed and I's dotted.
My special appreciation thus goes to Frankrobbn, Bracha and Qudkom who positively influenced my application in a way or the other Every other guru: Makano, Justmellow and so many Monikers I may not mention. God bless your selfless efforts on this thread.
I need to also mention that I am advanced in age and I have never traveled outside Nigeria before and I also graduated university in 2006 with about 11 years working experience. Married with 2 kids but I decided to apply alone first. This is to encourage someone not to really give up.
Nevertheless all human efforts, IT IS NOT OF HIM THAT WILLS, NOR OF HIM WHO RUNS, BUT OF GOD WHO SHOWS MERCY....

I even had to ask them if it’s necessary since my first degree was in English and I’m from an English speaking country.. so they sent me a link and said I should check if my country is listed amongst the list they created and that if not, then I would need to write an English test.. mehn, Nigeria wasn’t among o but I was very surprised to see countries like Kenya, Zimbabwe...

Hello, please can you share the link to this. I mean the Sally's pattern. Thank you. abusmanlouis: Whatever you are going to study doesn't matter if you can follow rules below ✅Have financial Resources in your home country ✅Have solid home ties ✅Have a good Letter of Explanation (Very important). LOE is one of the most important document among other documents. Your LOE must be convincing to the extent that devil himself will know that you carry special anointing. 30millions naira in your personal account as POF may not save you if your LOE is poor.(VO's gcms note word: Vague). Sally in Part 15 wrote something interesting about a good LOE. She talked about how she wrote her LOE, wow that was the best LOE pattern i will recommend for SP newbies. If you have a good LOE and all the CIC needed documents and they still refuse ur SP? Bro go beg your Village people and go baff If your application is refused based on Travel history! Please seek JR because there is no law in IRPA that says application should be refused based on travel history |

I choose the EAP because it’s a better option for me. School resumes September/January and I don’t think I have enough time to prepare for IELTS. 1 Like |

Even the almighty UToronto, McGill and UBC don't ask Nigerians for IELTS. I didn't submit anything concerning English language at McGill, and for UBC, I only uploaded the "English as a Medium of instruction" document. If you have a very good GPA, just try those schools and forget IELTS/TOEFL and/or GRE. victorsol:
