@mowney, just sent you an email. However, I encourage you to also post your questions here as there are several others who know much about Canada, as well as people who might learn from the responses to your questions. Cheers |

mimi234: Typically an undergraduate degree in the UK are 3 years (with the exception of Medicine and Architecture), however you can do 4 year degree where the extra year is a study abroad option or work experience this usually is your third year then you come back to complete your degree in your 4th year.Metro Toronto is not a cheap city accommodation is very expensive Husband and wife has two bedrooms and will rent you a room But I love Toronto miss the place 2 Likes |

luckgames: I am trying to understand this post . . . You could get cheap accomodation in Toronto, all depends on your choice and where you are willing to reside and how far you willing to commute to work or school. |

femmmy is right it also you can rent a room with a family in the outskirts of Toronto, I got a house in Ajax and i rent a room for 400 - 450 $ a month which is the standard rate, If you work or go to school in Toronto the cost of transportation would be more. |

Lemme Guess, Are you in UOIT?. . . . . . . Also, 4 students could come together and rent a whole house or 3 comes together even ini Toronto and rent a 3 B/D Apartment, but i have come to notice that kids from poor background, once they get to Canada or USA, they wanna leave Big while mama and papa back home struggles to pay their tuition. 2 Likes |

Fhemmmy: No im not @ UOIT, Im Canadian by birth, so i grew up in Toronto and lived their all my life until i met my son's father, we then moved over to Nigeria he is Igbo, so i travel back and forth, while im out of the country i rent out rooms in my house to students. I had a few students from Saudi Arabia once and they paid like 900 $ for room and meals, i liked them the best . I graduated from York University a few years back. Where are you studying? |

First of all, the canadian embassy wanna be sure you have the money to finance your education before you are granted the visa, so if all you have is half of the money, how would you show them you can afford the Tuition and your living expenses? But if you could get a visa and found yourself in Canada, if you have a will, there is a way! Good luck |

What happens at the airport where you are given your Temporary resident visa? Do you need to provide all the docs you used for the permit? Also, if you have gotten a "better" offer, is presenting that offer instead of the one you used for study permit at the port of entry a bad idea? |
Re: Nigerian Students In Canada: How Do You Survive? by Fhemmmy: 11:19pm On Mar 31, 2012 |
