If you have a strong 2:1 (4.00 and above) or a First Class, you can apply to Masters by thesis programs and get full funding. If not, then I don't know of any other scholarship scheme that can work for you.

First things first..

You need to write a strong proposal. Draft something of between 2-4 pages. Once you have your proposal, the next thing is to identify schools and potential supervisors. I could help you by narrowing your scope. What specific area of Political Science are you interested in? Comparative Politics, Policy Studies, International Relations, Strategic Studies, or what?

Hello Nairalanders,

Please I need information about the Form A platform, especially from people who have paid Memorial tuition fees with it.

I mailed the cashier office yesterday and they recommend I use GlobalPay student platform to make payment. As it stands, I don't have any idea on how the platforms work.

I could really use the information now as the deadline for payment is so close.

Thank you.

Please google mun cashiers office, then click on methods of payment. It will take you to a list of available options to make payment, select wire transfer using globalpay. This later takes you to memorial page on globalpay where you input the amount you want to and get a quote which you will print and take to the bank to process your Form A.

Go to the bank with a copy of your previous (degree) certificate, passport data page, letter of admission and letter stipulate amount you are to pay because bank will want to turn you down if you can provide evidence that you are actually paying for school fees. I will advice you speak with your account office to handle it for you.

That's thesame VFS office now, if I don't know that of Abuja at least I know the Lagos office which is close to my house. Na thesame office or should I say address/building.

I had to ask if there's another embassy when the poster said "Canada embassy, not VFS oh" sounded to me like 2 separate offices but thanks for the response though.

So sorry about the refusal, I agree with waiting to see GCMS notes cos if you submitted all these documents and they are still referring to some "Mark Sheet" then its important to know exactly what they're talking about.

God is still in control, it is well.

Good evening everyone,
Please I need information on the NSE route. Anyone with links can please share to me so I can read more.

Also, I'd be grateful if there can be short answers to my questions below:

1. Is a Masters in Information Studies programme (which aligns with one's undergraduate degree) a good course for the NSE program?

2.) What is the required POF for the NSE program?

3.) Is TOEFL/ IELTS required for the NSE/ Visa application?

4.) What's the visa processing time for the NSE?

5.) What are the required documents for the NSE program?
Thanks for responding.

Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 18 by Chimzy4real: 1:30am On Dec 23, 2020
Anyone applied to new bruswick before. Is payment done before i am able to upload my documets?
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 18 by TeeMade: 2:00am On Dec 23, 2020
Hello @Chimzy4real,

Please confirm which payment you're referring to, registration fee or the deposit toward school fee?

I applied to UNB and completed my application/document upload. Then I was directed to the payment page to pay my registration fees, as application will not be processed until payment is made and received by the school.

After receiving my conditional acceptance letter which stated that I had to pay a non-refundable deposit to secure my slot, I then proceeded to make the payment at the bank before the stipulated deadline.

Hope this helps?

It will end in praise for us all...

Hello @ Philadelphia,

Kindly visit page1 of this thread, there's link for the NSE details.

It is expected that you use the search option to get info on any enquiry which will help you see if thesame has been discussed in past threads. It's probably the reason you didn't get a quick response as this topic is already almost overflogged on this platform. The time of the night may also be anothor reason though.

All the best.

It will end in praise for us all...

IF YOU ARE JUST COMING TO CANADA AND YOU HAVE USD DO NOT CHANGE YOUR MONEY TO CAD AT THE AIRPORT, THE RATES ARE TERRIBLE ,AND THERE IS ALSO A COMMISION ON EACH TRANSACTION. The woman at travelex told me the rate is 1usd - 1.11 cad but something told me not to change it, when i got to my apartment, I told my friend to help me change it and she changed it at the bank for a rate of 1usd- 1.28 cad without any commission at all

Hi guys, sorry it took this long.

Did not do covid test. No one checked my luggage in Lagos. Just went to the Ethiopian airlines stand, gave them enrolment letter, admission letter, arrive can receipt photocopy and I checked in my luggage. Begged the checker to put me by the window for all flights up to Newfoundland, he did and i just tipped his something. Went to have breakfast and then dashed towards the boarding gate. As expected, na only pilot no tax me. Plane left around 2. We got to Addis Ababa around 9.
Getting out of the plane, we rushed to the boarding gate to get set for Dublin. Plane left around 11 and we got to Dublin about 8 hrs later I think. This was so so long. There was quite a delay at Dublin I think because of logistics but from Dublin to Toronto it took us about 7 hrs. The journey was long for me as my max before now used to be around 5 hrs.

We got to Toronto, waited for about 30 minutes in the plane, went straight to border services, filled a few forms, showed our arrive can, boarding pass and passport and then we were directed towards immigration. The guy just came to us, asked us for passport, tuition receipt/enrolment verification, declaration form and admission letter. 10 minutes later, he called me, gave me back my documents and issued my study permit and gave me a paper to direct me on how to get my social insurance number, then that was all.

Checked in my luggage going to Newfoundland. It was still past 11 and my flight was for 9:30 pm so i just followed my Nigerian friends going to Vancouver to their boarding gate, gisted and saw them off at past 2. Then it was only me. This was draining. I then began to tour the airport and met a South Sudanese woman with whom I discussed the state of our countries and neo-colonialism. She's a Canadian citizen so she enlightened me a whole lot and when she realized i didnt have cash cause I was complaining on phone that i was hungry, she gave me 20 U.S dollars but the mumu me went to Italian to buy ham, bacon and coke. I forcefully finished it o.


Went to my boarding gate 2 hrs prior and saw a white guy. Moved closer to him and started a conversation. He was speaking fast so my accent also had to change. We discussed Trump, liberalism, Canada's plan towards development and economic expansion, American and Chinese trade wars and the beauty of data analytics in Insurance. A few minutes to board, we parted and he got to the plane first as per him seat be like first class.


I later got on the plane but when the plane paced around the runway, i think it began to have issues so the captain said we'd return to the gate and do a system refresh on the plane. It delayed for two hours. I sha know say after like five minutes wey plane move up, i don sleep. Before I know, e don remain 8 minutes to land. Landing was thrilling cause the journey from Lagos was long. I got to the NFL border, took my luggage, approached the border official, submitted my passport, travel declaration form and my GT atm card for indentification. She spoke her English and then freed me. I met my greeter and he put me in the cab but failed to tell the porter i was coming cause he was attending to two others.


The cabman dropped me and I knocked and knocked but nobody came through. I was just on a shirt. I languished in the cold, shouted for help but no one came through. I saw a car pass by and slowly approached the car and an Asian lady listened to me, asked me to wait and she called her supervisor. I ran across the road for like five minutes to limit the effect of the cold and then she drove towards me and gave me a number to call but that was when the other two guys came and the porter came around. I went in, called the greeter, fuckling blast him and he apologized. I was then shown my room and I checked in for isolation. I am in quarantine.
A mix of experiences you see?



Thanks for sharing. Wish you the best.

My passport was stuck at the embassy/Lagos VFS for 6 weeks. I eventually got it a day before my original travel date to avoid no show and losing money. I cancelled the covid-19 test which I had already paid for but then asked for a date change for my ticket. So the cost of changing ticket ended up being covered by the refunded test fee.
