frankmoney:

yes Bro. Their application portal opned on August first.

Hello Its been long I wrote last here. University of Carlifonia, Berkeley has actually started. They require SAT/ACT and TOEFL/IELTS. Here is their link. www.mcfscholarsprogram.berkeley.edu/undergraduate-application-process. Goodluct to those that shall apply!!

Crich:
Hello guys.
Glory to God. I was delayed yesterday based on four reasons:
Insufficient funds, travel history, personal asset, and family ties in Canada n Nigeria.

Truth be told, this CIC style of processing applications for months is the worst ever. They need to review it. Na their mate be USCIS.

So, after rejoicing with you guys and my family for 1 weeks, I received a shocker. Lol! I'm still trying to recuperate. This is a very bad feeling.
All guys expecting TRV, my candid advise, to avoid hypertension, kindly prepare for the worst.
If you have been called for medical, pls, know that that DOESN'T guarantee a TRV.
This is my story.

Chai! So, you guys will be consoling me now. Hahahahahahahahaha!

Chaii! Na wa ooo!! I perfectly understand the feeling as I've been in such similar but different condition few years ago. Please let it not overworry you.I hope You'd fire in due time.

GboyegaD:

Mine does perfectly. Here is my account balance since January.

amazing

I think any Samsung Galaxy phone is fine. I still use my MTN till date. As for plans, IMO, Koodo has the most reasonable student plan. I think it is $34 monthly with 300 daytime calls, unlimited night and weekend calls, and 50mb of data. You could also use Wind if it is strong around your location.

thanks alot! did you say MTN? How?

Helo and goodevening to you all. This canny thread no get party two jare!. I'm really enjoying the discussions on food stuff,clothing etc I want you guys to please to throw light into phones! Which type of phones is compatible with canny network? Phones like infinix or techno will it work there? And the best subscription plan,to grab upon arrival? putting into consideration that one might tend to make quite a lot calls to home first few months upon arrival.
Thank you.

Tnks atleast one person remembered me on this thread, it's bin a very difficult journey and the devil tried a lot on my case buh he failed woefully.
After I received my medical request and updated it on this thread,I then proceeded to Lagos for medical request. On my way to the clinic my passport got lost in transit. I almost ran mad.i was stranded in lag for three days going from one motor park to the other
At the end of the day,had to inform cic of my predicament and had to travel to Abuja for a replacement oooo.did my medical for 48000 instead of 28000 in Lagos cos they don't require original passport at Abuja clinic oo.
Fast forward to today I am proud to say I have my trv.God is good.
To many of us hoping to get trv pls do not relent until u achieve your dreams cos God told me he hasn't finished even wen Others told me to defer the admission cos I dnt have time again. Mind u my school resumes dis same July.see u all in canada Inshallah .

oh! You really passed through alot. Thank God all the storm is over. We're glad everything is now alright

solo8 for somebody who would not be coming with food stuff (have a full year round meal plan in the dorm) what other nice gadget should the person get

@ solo. Thanks you so much, I beleive you.

Obianuju1:
The other day, i tapped into team12 blessing, and now, God has done it for me. I praise his name.
I have received a request for my passport.
I would like to send it by mail so that it can be mailed back to me. Does anyone know the process?

congratlations nwaanyi oma! You can either use ups or dhl. Ups is relatively cheaper but slower and steady. Dhl is faster and costlier. It depends on your choice make enquiries and choose the one you wish. Also most dhl office do not permit to and fro booking. You can only book for return courier when vfs has notified you to come and collect your passport. Ups does to and fro booking instantly.

Solo8:


I'm not sure if you are joking or serious but you can find affordable clothing here. Buying winter clothes in naija and coming here will make no sense and you'll end up paying more. You can find winter boots for less than 100 bucks, you just gotta shop around at the right time. If you want designer boots you'll have to pay more. I found winter boots for 40 bucks 3 yrs ago. Bought another for 120 last winter.

please can you clarify why it doesn't make sense buying winter clothes here? I thought they said clothing are relatively cheaper buying them here? 120 should translate to almost 20k if am not mistaken?

NaD720:


Is anyone going to answer me I need answers ASAP.

i can't recal what that form code stands for. Could you state its name.The check list is not needed for online app.

chrisviral:

also is it advisable to live off campus esp wen its ur first time of being dia?
tnx

I'm not quite certain about how thier M.A programme work cuz I applied as a UG. It is always best to stay in a school's residence for first timers but you might see off Camp accomodation that are more flexible and cheaper. Here is ubc address- www.ubc.ca

tnoula is just right. When you spare a couple of hours and brush across the thread especially part 7, you learn so many things and even steps ahead. Everything will also get a bit clearer and you can then make good questions. And of course the wonderful people in this thread will graciously answer you.
Tips: buy popcorn and eat as you read accross the pages!

mevisbleek:


Tnuola, please let not scare people away. If a question is asked 100 times let's try and answer it 100 times as well. One family here. Let's be patient with each other. Thank u. No disrespect tho.

mevisbleek, is that you? Hi

holytribe:


Am sorry if all this questions has been super annoying, I can understand and am deeply sorry for the stress.
I just got this trend dis evening and I know it will be very vital for me as I plan to apply for my canada visa soon
I just applied to study for my MBA in canada and the school mailed me yesterday that I will receive an offer this week.
As I hope to receive their offer before Friday, I wish to ask with pardon, the required documents that will be needed during application as I don't want to give chance for excuse.
Thanks in anticipation

check part 7 of the thread. There was a page somebody posted various list of documents required. You might want to relax and learn other vital info as u scroll across the pages. I can assure you how much it will help you out.

gabrola:
we go all chop am, no worries. I thought dat it was d norm of ds house to tell one's story (list one's docs) weneva one gets hold of dat trv so when is it now a crime to ask?

pardon me na! E no go pass tomorrow!

invincible2006:


Thank you so much @JohnDuke259, you have been very helpful to me, too bad i'm seeing this message now i could have use UPS since that's what the VFS uses maybe it might be a little easier for them to post back, i have been waiting for your response since i know you are the latest guy that submit passport lately, but then i decided to to just post it, thank God i did not pay the Transmission fee , but any ways i use DHL to send the passport and included a prepaid return envelope for the return. i have track my passport on DHL website and it's already half way to Lagos, hopefully i will get it back next week with my TRV

hi
how much did DhL charge you? Which state?
