lol I tried checking universities cgpa requirement but it isn't very clear to me. That is why I came here looking for help. #justlove #nofighting

Well, he is kind of right. In this case, google is your friend.
But most universities accept the equivalent of a Nigerian 2.1 and above

Hello house,

I will be visiting Canada next week for a program and would like to ask for info on the following:
1. What sort of adaptor do I come along with for my laptop and phone chargers because I learnt the Canadian switches are different from 9ja's own.

2. Do I come with more cash or with my ATM? How much do banks charges cost for atm usage?

3. Are phones and tabs cheaper to buy over there? I checked out bestbuy.ca but I don't know if the prices quoted are paid on installment basis or not.

Thanks

Fhemmy answered this...
i will answer question 2
Banks charge 3 dollars per atm withdrawal. BUT now CBN has this limit thing where you cannot withdraw more than 50,000 naira in a day. that comes to about 350$

tunamost: Fellow forumites plz can anyone tell me if it is very possible to secure an admission wit a 3rd class honours to study masters or probably PGD in any canadian university dat has a very cheap tuition fee or probably affordable tuition fee...Plz my aim is to finish my studies in canada and settle down in canada...Plz anyone wit any info of school dat can accept me just incase uve been in my shoes b4 and ur dreams of studying in canada has been archieved or u know someone who had similar wit mine...plz don't hesitate to share d name of d school wit me and how to go abt applying...fanx alot...I awaite ur responses...God bless u all...amen..

I do not know so much... but i dont know any sch dat will take u for masters with a 3rd class. i think it is possible though for PGD. i dont know any sch with "cheap" tuition either. and be careful in ur search as not all schools r good(someone posted a link to approved schools...and someone earlier complained about stoufville).
I suggest u go back just a few pages(between 185 and dis page) to find the list. then go to the website of some of the schools and check out what they offer and their requirements for admission.

Nuendo: They haven't requested any fee and board from me. Which makes it all the more strange. I think i should juts go ahead and do the medicals to avoid delay in that department.

I'll check on VFS dis afternoon first if no reply by then, then I'll do the medics tomorrow mrn like that.

Problem is: the hosp i consulted (THE Children's Practice and Consultants, Raymond Njoku, Ikoyi) insist on original passport. Don't know how to go about this.

BESIDES PLEASE FROM THE HOUSE: ARE THERE INDIVIDUALS WHO WERE ISSUED TRV's WITHOUT BEING ASKED TO PAY FEES AND BOARD



i know a couple of people who were not asked to pay fees and board. but these people were on scholarships.
Also, it is possible that after your medicals, you'll receive further instructions.

galala123:

Sad to hear about the refusal. Look into the issues raised and plan ahead after you get some rest. The good thing about the online route is that you get your response much faster which is truly better whatever the outcome. Imagine people who wait 3 - 4 months and then eventually get negative feedback. I met 2 people last week who did not make it to see this week. One was knocked down by a vehicle, the other electrocuted in a hotel!. I feel your pain but quickly want to use this opportunity to let you know that "It is well"

Well said
