Long post alert!

1st app:
Submitted: 23/6/17
Refused: 31/8/17
2nd app:
Submitted: 18/10/17
Refused: 15/11/17
Thanks to everyone, I finally picked up my passport, here is to correct the notion that I was being negative even before I submitted my 2nd application by asking if after tackling issue of funds which was the only reason for the first denial 'Lump sum deposit' as seen on the gcms note, I asked solely because I didn't put in for masters as I am a nurse and masters in nursing is not open to international nurses, so I opted for Pgc in nursing (Enhanced Nursing Practice), I gave my application another shot because I was initially refused based on just funds, picked up my refusal note now to see:
1. Purpose of visit
2. Travel history
3. Personal asset and financial status
4. Employment situation
Finances wasn't ticked this time, Safe to say, a different VO reviewed and saw my app as not justified for approval, it all balls down to the level/choice of course. This forum has sure made me stronger, this forum gave me hope to even put in for the 2nd application, not getting approved is devastating but please let the pain make you better and not bitter, thanks to everyone & I wish all applicants the best. Signing Out!

sorry about your refusal again. Most likely a fresh picked up your app like you and just saw something else. However if i may ask what did you do differently in your second app?

Did you add a LOE?
Did you change your SOP?
Did you pay fees?

I still believe you should apply for GCMS and give it another shot

Apparently, you answered the checklist questions as applying to renew your study permit hence the supplementary provision for those documents. You'll have to answer the questionaire questions again and provide the appropriate answers. It will provide the necessary tab for you if you are applying for a study permit for the first time.

1. Credit cards are mostly accepted for application fees payment.

2. Most schools will require you upload an unoffficial copy of your transcripts online and upon admission, the official ones would be requested. So read the instruction on your school's website for required documentation. They should guide you better.

Please this is urgent. How do I pay application fee for admission? Is it through our regular MasterCard ATM card?
Kindly respond as soon as possible.
Thank you

Naira Mastercards work fine...I've been using GTBank cards for applications fee payments as well.

About the document submission after deadline, I'd say it depends on the school.

Like Austinepee4 said, many schools accept unofficial copies of Transcript but some require official copies sent directly from your school. I know MUN and Dalhousie require hard copies of Transcript, even more annoying Dalhousie require you to send your hard copy CV to them at Nova Scotia. undecided undecided

Goodmorning Everyone,
Please i was referred here by a friend after my visa denial. The only reason for the denial was insufficient funds with all boxes ticked.
I have a January 2018 resumption and my school doesn’t have another start date till September. (Bs.c)Also i have all documents for reapplication.
I have a sponsor with a company bank statement of 2.5Bn and current 89Mn balance.
I intend to reapply by Monday. My sponsor is my Aunt and have all documents ready. Is it safe to reapply now against January admission(might not be realistic)as I’ve only heard rapid processing for PhD applicants.
Guys please what is realistic that I have left out, I’ll appreciate more suggestions and response from the informative and helpful people of this forum. Please pardon my approach and render possible help.
Thanks and God bless.

I checked out so many schools offering nursing. But I still desire to know if you guys will have idea of which school offers an affordable tuition and less cumbersome application procedure coz I know those presently in Canada should have a more detailed information for me.

Try Msvu in halifax
Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 13 by HiredGames(m): 6:26am On Nov 23, 2017
If there's anything I have learnt from this thread, it's that "Sufficient Fund" is one of the easiest visa denial conditions to be avoided.

Pay your One year Tuition, open a dorm account and have your sponsor send a minimum of $10,000CAD for living expenses.

Quite simple to plan out in my opinion.

Well this is what I did.
1. Paid a year tuition fee
2. Opened a dorm account and transferred funds of more than 10k dollars for living expenses.
3. Wrote a letter of explanation to show any changes made to my new application
4. My sponsor explained any lump sum of money in her account in a detailed sponsorship letter

Pay one year tuition and transfer $10k to dormiciliary account. The $10k living expenses is only a recommendation by CIC, sometimes living expenses exceeds $10k, in that case be prepared to have the equivalent of your one year living expenses in your dormiciliary account if you are a sponsored student. Have statement of account (SOA) from sponsor showing enough to cover for the duration of your entire studies. If you do this, you would have presented an entirely bulletproof application, at least financially.

Wonderful! Apply with a masters degree and explain how you didn't get the question. They might extend grace to you. No nobody has banned you, they didn't even accuse you of misrepresentation, otherwise you would have gotten a letter. They accused you only of omission, so tackling why you ommited would be good. You never been to Germany and you already don't like it? Is your prejudice and preconceived notions indeed prejudiced? Anyways I know nothing about Ireland. I have written stuff across the fields, but kinda tied down right now, I will advice you start doing some mad research into schools and pm me if you have any questions or need help. Happy to answer!

Hi,
Hows everything? i took your advise and am applying to those schools you told me to ( TRU, UNBC, MUN). If possible i will add two others for fear of refusal so that at least one or two will click. But the headache with this masters application is that they say i need to get potential supervisors as it is a research program (dont even know what to say to them), i attached a draft of the statement of purpose i have done even though i know am a long way away (lol), also my resume. In all these schools, i am applying to Environmental Science/ Studies. Please when you have the time help me look through and help with any adjustments or what you think i need to add or focus on. I have a twin brother in Ontario (which would have been perfect so i dont think of accomodation but seems schools there are more difficult). With my Industrial Chemistry background, i doubt there is any other program i can apply to that wont require a potential supervisor as part of admission requirement. Many thanks in anticipation of your assistance, God bless you.

Alarm: please edit and remove your statement of purpose here to prevent plagiarism. To obtain a supervisor, first send a friendly email introducing yourself as a student from Nigeria and talk about very briefly your interest and why the professor would be a good fit. Ask for permission to email your research proposal or statement of intent, resume and transcript.

It is advisable to write a brief friendly introductory letter to a potential supervisor who you have confirmed that has similar research interests that you do. Explain that you have met the basic requirement. Talk very briefly on your research stating the need for this research and how you think he fits. Finally enquire if he is accepting graduate students and if so if he can get in touch with you.
He will most likely reply asking for research proposal, and perhaps a CV. Your research proposal should not be above 5 pages if possible. Let your passion for your chosen research field show genuinely.
