earthgreeners: @fhemmy et ifegy et al,
with reasons, which do you think is the best option when planning accommodation considering cost, ease of adaptation and safety...
1) Staying on campus
2) Staying off campus
3) Homestay plan

ndbaba: hi.
can anyone pls give me info on a postgraduate degree in canada. a friend of mine graduated with a 2.2 and he was told that he would not be admitted into a masters degree in canada and was advised by the agent to go for a PGD instead. he said the PGD would last for 9 months after which he can apply for a post graduation work permit and subsequently apply for a permanent residency. pls i jst want to know hw true this is and the schools offering good PGD degrees.

Fhemmmy:

All those 3 cant be combined, you wanna save cost means you wanna cook at home and not expect someone to cook for you, meaning you wanna wash your cloth and not take them to dry cleaners . . . but i think as a Nigerian that could survive anywhere, you will be fine and find it cheaper by staying off campus . . . but sharing with other people might make you adapt easily and not only be used to eating Nigerian food and learn one or 2 things from other people, but at the end of the day, it is all about YOU and your willingness to adapt.

Bunmiemich: Hi guys, Fhemmy n d rest, u guys re doing a very great job on here. I've been so informed by u guys. Thanks so much.

earthgreeners:


But how about the ease of getting off-campus accommodation, as most of the on campus accommodations comes with utilities and affordable meal plans....when the extra costs are calculated, we arrive at almost the same amount with only a slight difference.........thatz what i think

hydiciousb: hi guys, i must confess you guys have educated my mind...to cut the story short, i'm interested in doing my undergraduate studies in vancouver cos i have a friend who is already a citizen, bt i'm totally new to this visa issue wont mind if i can get anybody to put me tru cos to be sincere, i'm sponsoring myself...i work online and i earn decent income....ur ur views are highly welcomed!

slamdunk99: Amounting to the same cost is not completely true. Am in my 2nd month and I stay off campus in Vancouver. Those who live on campus pay btw 950-1100CAD per month in my sch UBC and thats apart from other personal 'ijekuje' wey dem dey chop and drink everyday. but from what I am seeing I can grind thru the month with 650-700 very comfortably. Its all about you and what you are willing to give up and enjoy.

bukahands: Please can a cGPA of 3.52 get me admission in usask or mun am thinking environmental engineering or mph

hydiciousb:
Hi bro, i'm planning of coming to vancouver b.c next year though i'm still searching for a school.....pls hw can i get incontact with u?

slamdunk99: Are you coming for undergrad or postgrad? first step is to search and apply and get admission........others will follow. send me your e-mail addy, i'll contact u.

earthgreeners:

Yeah u can secure admission, but, ensure you apply as early as possible cos admission is highly competitive, I wld suggest u also look at Memorial University of Newfounland

bukahands: Earthgreener please throw light on this appraisal letter how will my prof submit it after filing it for me and thank u I am considering apply for biochemistry which is what I studied cos of increasing my chances of getting in but I prefer mph what do u advice ?

Fhemmmy:

I am not too sure, but my stab at it would be that, Nigeria is really operating the England kinda education, while you will have to take more preparation courses in Canada . . . By the way, you could do more to finish your Masters in less than 2 years with hard work if you so desire.

Maybe Canada is better than UK . . .
