Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 17 by Eilenora: 5:21pm On May 10, 2020 |
Hello All, Please I am trying to navigate myself around this whole admissions thing but noticed each college I go to, I see the following credential options which confuses me: Advanced Diplomas (3 year program) Certificate Programs (8 weeks - 1 year) Degrees (4 year program) Diplomas (2 year program) Graduate Certificates (1 & 2 year programs) Ontario College Certificates (10 weeks - 1 year) What option should I be selecting for a PGD programme? So I selected the last 3 but was surprised to see some courses wth the admission requirements being: Admission Requirements Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD), or equivalent, or 19 years of age or older with mature student status (See Mature Student definition for details.) Grade 12 compulsory English, C or U, or equivalent, OR Conestoga College Preparatory Communications (COMM1270) Grade 11 Mathematics, C, M (U/C), or U, or equivalent, OR Conestoga College Preparatory Mathematics (MATH1375) For more information on preparatory programs, visit Academic Upgrading If this is a PGD, why is the requirement being Secondary School? Unless it is a University degree I am looking at thinking it is a PGD. Can some one please advise so I can be properly guided before I run to agent to help me do what I should be able to do myself. I had a 2.2 law degree, 9 years legal experience but the past 3 years I have been an enterpreneur so looking to apply for a business related PGD course. Kindly help a sister out ![]() |

Hello everyone, I have a question regarding bringing my spouse over. Somehow, we had to postpone our marriage to July, but I will be submitting my Visa application this week. The thing is, Since we aren't married yet, Will it be a okay if I submit my application this week "single" and then present a marriage certificate next year when we apply for her work permit? my partner is still in school, she will be rounding up next year, and our plan is for her to come join me next year. |

Also is it true that its hard to get admissions from 35ages upwards? I am 35 this month. I have read a few cases on here where 40yr olds were successful so I knda always thought its from 40yrs old it would get tricky Eilenora: |

Kabz: Not possible to ask a school to transfer your transcripts to another. The transcript must be sent directly from your home university. It's just a pity that some of our Nigerian Universities still love their archaic style and refuse to go digital. The only thing is to write a mail to the Grad. coordinator and explain your COVID situation. Tell them to extend the deadline to submit these documents. They are flexible and can always make concessions. May I ask, what program and university are you heading to? 1 Like |

Eilenora: You need to look specifically for a post graduate certificate or a post graduate diploma course. I think most diplomas offered by colleges are actually for students straight out of high school hence the requirement for secondary school grades. When you find a post graduate diploma the requirement will be different I.e bachelor degree and transcript 2 Likes |

Eilenora: I know a 42 year old who just got admission. Funny enough her masters admission was in a completely different field from her First degree but it was in line with her work experience. Just package yourself well in your statement of purpose making sure to highlight all your relevant work experience and achieved e.g awards, published work etc 2 Likes |

Thevenine:Note: This response are based on my own opinion, u might need to source for more clarification.. 1) Not compulsory, If u have 1 sponsor, and he or she is capable of Sponsoring u with Sufficient Funds......, then go ahead, but u can as well use two sponsor .. 2) Advisably, a Family is the best to use as a Sponsor, most esp. Ur parents (Dad or Mum) 3) According to information, it has not bin officially implemented. if u check CIC , it has not bin integrated there ... 4).......From my own perspective......If ur Previous Job correlates or align with the program u are going for, they can give u a recommendation letter.(Most esp. If u are av a cordial relationship with dem).. E.g..Jz like when an Organization (PPA) is sending off a Corp Member (NYSC)..,dey do issue recommendation letter...... 5) There is no faster route ... It all deals with Patience and Crafting ur application well |

Thanks so much for your kind responses to my inquiries. So I have a Skype appointment with a Fanshawe rep this morning, I am not sure I understand why I need to have this just to get admissions but from what I have read so far, I see that one has to go through an agent to process admission into their school. Is there anything I have to do to prepare for the appointment? Is it like an interview or what? Anyone with previous experience particularly those currently in Fanshawe, kindly advise on the process. I have also read that one has to pay for these appointments. At what point does this happen? The appointment is 10am this morning so it is pretty urgent biko, e joooo. Kindly assist [color=#990000][/color] ![]() |

Chimzy4real:Unilag does not issue unofficial transcript o ! Other schools are giving their students transcripts or sending it to the schools abroad once they pay online . However , unilag is just different and they are not processing application for transcripts yet! Pls anyone who knows anyone who can help. Biko ! I can message you privately . Deadline May 31st |
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 17 by Eilenora: 10:19am On May 11, 2020 |
Please keep me posted if u get any headway cos I am in the same shoes with Unilag. i had commenced the process before the Covid thing started and now you cant even track it online or send emails to follow up cos Unilag is practically on shut down mode. I already have admission from a schl in the UK but the admission is conditional on transcript. if I dont submit before 31st I lose a chance of getting a 1000pounds early bird discount off my tuition. I prefer to school in Canada though hence looking into Canadian schools as well; and I know this issue of transcript will resurface hence the urgency. Will they collect a credential evaluation in the stead of a transcript though cos I have that both from WES and IQAS Slayyy001: |

Qudkom: Overall 3.57 CGPA is a second class upper division (2.1) which is the minimum requirement for admission into a master's program in Canada. @Daum, can go ahead with his application, but must write a well structured and articulated SOP that will substantiate him considerably as a good candidate for the program. However, MSc programs as suggested by Qudkom is very competitive, your best shot will be to opt for an MEng program. Cc:Daum take note. It will end in praise. 1 Like |
