I guess I am one of the lucky ones... I burst my ass to learn software development in school and it paid off during and after service year. So all I can say is for you to learn a skill. Preferably a digital skill, that's your ticket to financial freedom during and after NYSC.. Learn learn learn |

The paper contains the reason for denial and you can reapply at any time after your circumstance has changed blah blah blah

Why complicate things) ME: Passed the document VO: You were denied visa to Canada few years ago, what happened? **Sets his hands for typing** ME: (I dreaded this question being asked.. Was banned and rendered inadmissible to Canada) Yes, I was denied study visa because ( cuts me off while nodding his head ) VO: **waits for a long while while typing** Where did you do your undergraduate studies? ME: **So So** University India VO: How much did it cost you? ME: 5000usd yearly exclusive of living expenses. VO: Who paid for it?

VO: **waits for a long while while typing** how long is this program? ME: Roughly 2 years VO: **waits for a long while while typing** what is your plan after graduation? ME: After my studies, I plan to return home and with my updated knowledge on the latest practices of software engineering and network and information security apply for senior level position in my current company or seek for research intensive IT position in government agency like NITDA ( I expanded it). I plan to work for maximum of 5 years in this position while setting a stage to running my own IT company where I'd be dealing with creation of new generation secure and dependable enterprise systems to power most businesses in Nigeria while offering employment opportunities to Nigerians who wants to make a career in the field. I believe my program would help me achieve this goal. VO: **waits for a long while while typing** What proof do you have that your living expenses would be taken care of? ME: I have my sponsors personal and business statement of account. VO: Give me his personal statement of account. ME: I passed it VO: I will be approving your visa. ( Passes two white papers). Paper contains how you will get back your passport and what you need to know before travel. But I'd hold on to your statement to run a thorough check. If found fraudulent, you will be deported even if you are in the states. Should I proceed with it? ME: Sure no problem. VO: Once again congratulation and have a great time in your Masters study. ME: Thanks I appreciate. Bye Went out dumbfounded and unable to contain the possibility of getting my visa despite my Canadian ban. But God made it happen anyway.
To the travel hopefuls Nothing is impossible. Prepare well and be very confident till the very end. Whatever will be will be |

nairawall: I am asking for the mode of transportation not the type of car as you insinuated.
The only important idea somebody gave on this thread has been hidden by the mod. He suggested WinDev. I have been reading a lot about WinDev and it sounds a bit interesting but the french thing and the very small community discouraged me.
I am coming from a procedural/modular programming background. I also learn very fast so I wanted a language I can learn quickly to develop the app.
I was misled some time ago to learn Python, as some persons on this forum suggested it could be for desktop app development.
After several weeks of engaging python, I discover it lacks security because you code can easily be accessed by any one using the desktop application.
I am at the moment considering VB.Net. nice one there vb.net is good hope you were able to learn the language and develop something with it |
