Yes please. Even at that, you could use the online platform to generate the items you need to submit with your application so that you don't miss out on any important thing.

Nuendo:

LETTER OF INTENT
1. Start off with a very very short description of who u are and your basic interests
2. Your qualifications , degree , etc
3. Work experience relevant to your first degree etc.
4. why you want to do a masters and how doing such would benefit you in your life aspirations
5. why you want to study in in Canada instead of Nigeria or another country e.g USA, UK etc
6. The u have to somehow try to convince the visa officer that your study would be beneficial back home thereby reinforcing your intent to come back home after studies.




LETTER OF SPONSORSHIP:

1. Sponsor should introduce himself, occupation, address
2. Explain his relationship to you.
3. Explain why he wants to sponsor you ( if he isn't blood related.)
4. Assure that he has the financial means to be responsible for all your expenses


DISCLAIMER : This isn't a perfect guide but going by most of what i have seen online, this could be a starting point.
my 2 cents.

Odinwa:
Thanks but am not going for masters, am going for a 2nd degree in a different course. Should I use the same format?

richard4ssky:

yes you right. Is lik you have an ideal about the school. Is just an 8 month program. So how much do you advice me to be in my statement of account

earthgreeners: Sigh!!!... After a very long battle...
I'm pleased to inform this great house that I have been offered admission for Masters in Natural Resources Management at the University of Manitoba. I have accepted the offer and waiting for a formal admission acceptance letter... I have changed my mailing address to a Canadian address.

You can always modify the format. Relate your second degree to your aspirations and why u feel u need to do that second degree. DONT MAKE IT LOOK LIKE U ARE JUST DOING ANY COURSE FOR THE SAKE OF GETTING INTO CANADA.

There must be some form of tie to the course, your aspirations, and coming back to your home country.

hope that helps

Odinwa:
Yeah! It helped a lot. I will start drafting my letter now

earthgreeners: @xtus, vooz, luckydon, teexzle, freshdude and all Fall 2013 applicants...where @ thou?...
Whatz up with admission et study permit application?

movein: Hello house!

I wanna know if 3 semesters prog is equivalent to a year or 2..

Can i also use my GTB Master card to pay for my application fee on ontariocolleges.ca

Thank you!

Shadams:

In drafting the letter, my brother. Do not forget to relate your personality strengths and your first degree to the new one you seek. Let the reader get a feel of your passion, competence, and commitment to return to Nigeria to help society with newly acquired knowledge. Wishing you all the best! God no de sleep!

Huzzie: My good peeps in d house,wats good?. I jst tot I shud update d house wit my UNBC admission, I wasn't admitted because of unavailability of supervisor to match my research interest,though, I was said to be qualified for d prog.

Shadams:

@Gboyega. Many thanks. I will write the letter of interest now. But please, kindly permit one more inquiry. They want me to include an nysc certificate, if "applicable". How does one judge "applicability"? Is the nysc cert needed for a doctorate application? Then, instead of submitting original copies, could I submit certified copies from a notary public?

GboyegaD:

If it is based on the questionaire you filled then, I would suggest you give them all that is required of you however, if you are scared of the giving out the originals, I think you should be able to submit a certified copy although, I am not too sure of this.

richard4ssky:

well in my acceptance letter my george brow college it was noted that i must pay my tution fees befor my adminsion can be offer a place in the college. In this case what should i do

Siga: ....I dont know why you guys are scared or worried to submit originals of ur docs....the checklist clearly states they require original and copies....make una no dey play with fire ooo

Fhemmmy:

I think it is mostly because some people are scared of getting back their document just in case they are rejected, and i see those as feeling defeated already before the game.

Fhemmmy:

I will advice that if the dude is asked to submit the original of the document, it is better to do just that, cos if i am a visa officer and you think you are qualified to come to Canada to come and study and i am asking you for your original doc, if you are worried about giving them, i MIGHT dig more on you. . . just my own personal opinion.

Siga: ....I was lucky I got a job 1 month after my program...so...I got a Postgraduate work permit of 1yr...then after 6months of work...I applied for PR...PR came 4months after work permit don die...called immigration to notify them my work permit don die...I was advise no worry...continue working as you are legal since u already put in ur PR apps....so..na so so prayer say make dem approve am ...and luckily...I was granted....

Odinwa:
The first term school fees should be written/given on ur acceptance letter

teexzle: I call that being blessd nt lucky, can u explain any oda route, if 1 doesn't get a job easily(just wanna b sure of my chances so I can sell to my sponsor)
2. Hw long must 1 stay in canada b4 d person can apply 4 PR(judgn frm ur story u used on 2yrs)
3. My Dad's friend is in ontario bt he advsed that if I don't c schools in ontario I shd apply to other provinces cos one can apply 4 PR immediately after a year grad course bt its nt d case for ontario, hw tru is ds..

4.Wich province r u @

Fhemmmy:

Since you know you wanna go for teh program, then, pay and make things happen . . . . Good luck, note that according to what you have said, your acceptance fully is based on your tuition payment (reference to your statement)

Siga: ...My bad...correction...It was a huge blessing...

1. Some people go for other programs that they can use to extend their stay....
2. If u have prior work experience from Naija or anywhere u applying from, which is within the last 5yrs u are applying for PR...u can use that...I used mine as well....
3.That one na wrong info bro...Ontario has Provincial Nominee prog as well...I believe that is wat he is referring to...the number of apps accepted maybe more in other provinces than Ontario ...cos last yr...Ontario only accepted 1000 applicants...so...chances are bigger in other Province than Ontario...Ontario is pretty much has biggest population
4. I'm pimpin' Ontario...Tdot bro...never left since I came off the plane...

Started from the bottom, Now I'm here....
