vibrant99: Very good points, especially on the schools. We hardly see discussions on UBC, uToronto, uVictoria, McGill, McMaster and Western here. Those schools, though relatively more expensive, tend to have fewer rejected applicants. However, getting into them is a subject for another day. As for regions, Nigerians are flooding Ontario and Newfoundland. What happened to Quebec, Yukon, New Brunswick, etc? After all, there are even colleges in the Northwest territories. 2 Likes |

Frankrobbn1: Thank you @Frankrobbn1 What other stages can I expect and are next in line towards getting the study permit as the application progresses along the chain. How long could the process take? |

AbiodunMobi2025: This money is honestly small.. How much can a third party worth just 20M be able to spend on an adult? I'll advice you get a cheaper school so it's easier to believe the sponsorship.. Meanwhile, when did you get the refusal & when did u apply? |

Hi everyone, I think I’m missing something on this online study visa application platform. I can’t find any specific folder for applicant sponsor documents, which I believe exists in the past. I can only see ‘proof of means of financial support” as dedicated for financial documents. Is this the new way or what I’m I missing? Thanks. |

Pee2Jay9: Ehh? Lol.. Pls the reason for the denial is simple.. Is the sponsor related to him.. If no.. Possibility of an approval is slim. If the 20m is enough for his 1yr tuition plus $10,000cad LE, he is good to go 1 Like |

Osemigho: What do you say of people applying from UK or Russia or Ukraine but their family is in Nigeria. But they still apply in their current place of residence |
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 17 by Anon123: 10:13pm On Sep 04, 2020 |
sisikemi23: Pls apply from Nigeria as long as you have a valid residency permit. Your home ties is still your family in Ivory Coast, the only issue is you are not working cos if you were, it would have added more advantage to your hometies. Finally since you are from Ivory Coast, focus on schools in Quebec (French language) 1 Like |

vibrant99: You just rewrote other parts of the scriptures people often over look when it comes to applying for a study permit. Wished I could see in person to tell you I admire how you pour out your assertions. Know not everyone would adhere to it but I stand firm and say YES, IT’s 98% accurate. You seem to write out my mind some times. Referencing to schools, SENACA college particularly isn’t resting. I think people go in they because it’s affordable & I told someone this too When choosing a school, go for a rare. I know some schools which everyone who applied got a visa, I don’t know of any who got refusal but the tuition is quite high. I will say like you, the institution you pick & what province it’s located plays a role in your visa acceptance / denial. 1 Like |

Not exactly true. Quebec is bi-lingua; they speak both English and French. I can't make two sentences in French but I have a fully funded PhD offer in a Quebec-based University. Anon123: |

fratermathy: However, getting into them is a subject for another day. Hahaha. This got me rolling. Yeah. They are strict and good at digging. Their recommendations required from your institution & not you. Difficult to play them. They want to keep their prestigious & outstanding profile regardless of the high tuition. The embassy knows what it takes to get into such institutions & the high tuition as well so applicants from such institutions got some little favor but build a good affidavit regardless. |

Akannitommy: Wow. I love us to argue & fight on this. Can you swear of Quebec being bilingual? I’m from Cameroon & it’s often said Cameroon is bilingual but no. It’s not. It’s just on paper. Come here & you will fill it. Anglophones are thé minority. Same with Canada but the reverse. Quebec is mostly occupied with francophonie (French africa - Gabon, Ivory Coast, Congo, DRC, Chad, Algeria... France ...) Very few English speaking. Cameroon and Canada are to be the only 2 bilingual countries in the world but forget that paper talk please. 1 Like |

Anon123: I have a friend apply from the UK. I didn’t advise her to apply from Nigeria. Why? Nigeria application protocol is hard, unnecessarily hard. She was a masters student in the UK and She got her study permit for another masters in less than 2weeks. If you can apply from anywhere better than Nigeria and you have ties there, study permit is okay, please do. In the case we’re treating here, the applicant is a citizen of Nigeria and Ivory Coast and no relative in Nigeria. Except Ivory Coast visa situation is worse than Nigeria, which I doubt, I will not apply from Nigeria and will never advise s/he to. I will rather use study in Nigeria as evidence that I like to study elsewhere and return to my favorite abode, Ivory Coast. This is even better if the person Nigerian passport says born in Ivory Coast. By the way, I know a masters student at the university of Calgary who was in similar situation, Ghanaian Nigerian. She made a wise choice to apply from Ghana. Visa officers will consider the economic and political situation of your country when deciding your visa application and your chances of abusing your temporary visa. Nigeria is in a state of “yigiyaga” and that is already a big minus for any temporary visa application from there. 2 Likes |

Akannitommy:Honestly, this is an eye-opener which I've taken much notes from..Thanks so much. I'll solidify my intention on the scholarship move. God bless you!! |
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 17 by Osemigho: 1:23am On Sep 05, 2020 |
jbreezy: Now that you want to take the chance. You should know that getting a MSc scholarship in Canada is not hard with first class degree. Almost all research masters and PhD program offer it with admission as an opportunity cost of working instead. So check all programs offering MSc with funding or scholarship and their requirements. Most of them will require a supervisor. This is the best time to look for supervisor for fall 2021. The window is widely open and close gently till late December. You can have one or two Masters in Engineering as back ups. Those ones will give you admission easily but almost zero scholarship. They are meant for professionals with years of experience that need a higher degree for potential higher pay or position. However, they sometimes get less of those people and will use recent graduate to fill up space since “na your money.” All the best. 1 Like |

Good morning, please I am a graduate of public health and I am completing my nysc next month , I am confuse and scared on what to apply for because of visa rejection. I have 3 study program in mind for fall 2021 term . One a masters in public health , or a second degree in nursing as an accelerated program from a university or a diploma in practical nursing from a college . Please I need your advice . And I am considering school toward the Atlantic Canada territory and I lost my dad this year, could it affect my prof of sponsorship or visa application ? |
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 17 by fratermathy(m): 2:57am On Sep 05, 2020 |
ConradAce1: You're right. However, Montreal, which is the capital of Quebec, has historic Anglophone areas and these are located around the Downtown. I wouldn't advise someone who doesn't speak French to school anywhere in Quebec apart from Montreal. However, if you are a fast learner and have an aptitude for language, you can cope. There are some Nigerians in Laval and Sherbrooke and they are doing just fine. 1 Like |

Hi all. On the issue of this new 2 stage application process, for a 2021 January applicant, can the applicant wait until the first stage is approved & medical requested before doing biometrics? In order words, would the application still be in progress without supplying the biometrics initially coz the applicant wants to book for both medicals & biometrics together in a single trip. |
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 17 by Akannitommy: 5:15am On Sep 05, 2020 |
I understand your point and it is not totally strange either. America is supposed to be a free country but non-Caucasian are in the "minority" just like your bi-lingual analogy of Cameroon/Canada/Quebec. My point was YOU DO NOT NEED TO BE FLUENT IN FRENCH to live or study in QUEBEC. The practicality is a totally different thing. Mind you there are at least one or two other provinces in Canada with "a relatively substantial" french population and life too. Ontario has over 500k but proportionally low compared to its total population. New Brunswick has over 230k and "is officially a bilingual province" with approximately one-third of it's population being francophone. Hence, compared to Quebec with between 70% - 90% french speakers, the others are simply not as intense and geographically concentrated. ConradAce1: |
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 17 by Akannitommy: 6:12am On Sep 05, 2020 |
I am a Winter 2021 applicant too. I did medicals upfront (before submitting my application) and also booked bio-metric appointment before I got the request. Although I am based in Lagos, I have had some Gurus here guide me of course and they still do. Thanks @ honorable Frankrobbn1 and Oga Fratermathy. I hail you both! So if you are not based in Lagos/Abuja but have a friend/relative there who can accommodate you for 1 week, here is my suggestion: Book biometric appointment NOW. You probably won't get any date earlier than October at this rate and time. Then start a myCIC profile and get all application materials ready (scanned, sized etc). Book your medicals in advance to come up a week before your biometric appointment. Travel to either city to do medicals hoping there is no follow-up tests/investigations. Use e-statement for proof of funds so you can get the pdf wherever you are submitting from. Submit SP application while you are still in the city after panel physician confirm your medical exam has been submitted to IRCC (2/3 days). You should get a biometric request letter same or next day and you will be able to complete that before you return to base since you had an appointment in advance (remember?). Caveat: there are a lot of assumptions that went into the above proposition, so ensure you do your own research to be sure these can work for you. amobola: 1 Like |

Hello gurus in the house. I’m new here but I’ve taken time to read through the thread to get informed on helpful tips. But I need some personal enlightenment. I got PhD admission and departmental scholarship of $21,000 CAD to be paid @1,750 CAD per month (1750 * 12 = 21k) at University of Saskatchewan starting May, 2021 semester. Tuition= CAD 7000. I would like to know if without providing a proof of tuition fee payment it will be safe to proceed with study permit application. I currently do not have 7k CAD to settle the tuition, but will like to hear your suggestions. Looking forward to your informed responses. Thanks. 1 Like |
