Don Cipher:
@Siga, please do you mean change school to another one or you meant something else?
My Don....she can change school anytime....all u do is apply for the name of school to be changed on ur Study permit...no long thing...people come here and are not satisfied with the school and u are free to move to another one....u can as well change courses in same school if u feel u dont want the course u came in for anymore....and some dudes just bone finally which is a bad move cos...u need the certificate to place u better in the job market....na choice....

@Mr phemmy.that's not what I meant o!I believe dosunmu's isn't complicated;just citing an example.@Siga.that 19weeks,I believe is the maximum time to get ur student visa cos I know that some people do get the student visa within 3 months of applying for it.

...100% possible....but the issue is some courses might not be accepted at the University...but they accept it...P.S...u might be required to take some summer courses to be able to take the main courses....so, its ok...

Re: Travelling To Canada Part 3 by ezme(m): 7:39pm On Nov 12, 2012
Mr Siga, I can see the change you have brought into the room, before now if someone is asking questions around securing admission. It very rare you get any response. Most peeps are interested in medical calls/TRV news. I'm happy with the new trend, so I would love to throw my question at you or anyone who can help with this. I'm interested in pursuing graduate study in process control. I find the program at University of Alberta and University of Regina a perfect fit for what i want but when I saw the profiles of some Pakistani and Indian peeps in another forum that got rejected, especially by Regina,"Fear catch me bros". My question is what are the chances of getting into these schools with a Nigerian first degree? I can only document a 79% CGPA (chemical engineering), though I intend to write GRE to help give a better reflection of my academic strength.

For a better picture
IELTS: 7.5
B.Eng: 79% (2009/2010)
WASSCE: Aggregate 9
Not presently working as an engineer.


Please suggest any good schools because if going by their websites you would stop looking at the www.4icu.org/ca ranking when you get past the 30th ranking school
Re: Travelling To Canada Part 3 by Siga: 7:48pm On Nov 12, 2012
@ezme...i can tell u those schools are very very competitive....this is due to the Oil boom in those areas.....guys have flooded those schools and they only have few quotas for International students....I will advise you move away from those areas....u can secure admission into any other school....once u are done...u can relocate ...since you are looking into a Graduate study...its ok....remember...u all are gonna sit for same professional engr exam...so, u are cool....have u tried U of Manitoba...close to Alberta....or u try U of Waterloo, Queens, Mcmaster, York, U of T,Brock, Ryerson....there are tonnes...and these are very good schools....check their sites...see if they offer wat u want and go from there....and bro...some schools are better than others in some fields....keep in mind this ranking might be the overall grading....
Re: Travelling To Canada Part 3 by nivax21: 8:07pm On Nov 12, 2012
@ezme.Mr siga is 100% right.ualberta and ucalgary engineering are highly competitive because of the oil boom over there.however there are other schools in Canada in that offer chemical engineering though very few like uni of British columbia,mcgill university,university of Toronto,university of waterloo,queens university,uni of western Ontario,mcmaster university,uni of ottawa,ryerson university,royal military college of Canada,dalhousie university...I've forgotten the remaining 2

The problems is these options you are giving me don't actually have process control as their research area of specializations. Most of them are polymer and biochemical engineering inclined and truly my passion lies in process control.As for MUN, I really don't want to leave mainstream process control/process systems engineering. The websites of some of the schools are not even encouraging at all. York seems to be way up the list. I would come back again but lemme look at the waterloo again. Thanks for your response
Re: Travelling To Canada Part 3 by ezme(m): 8:18pm On Nov 12, 2012
As for that Ottawwa, those guys give admissions truely but my friends offer letter said he should be ready to spend $37000 per annum i think, and they don't send fee schedule. where do they think we would find that kinda money to show CDHC VO when applying for study permit. And funny thing is the money is actually about $16000 on their site for tuition

Re: Travelling To Canada Part 3 by earthgreeners(m): 8:58pm On Nov 12, 2012
@All
When you are dealing with uncertainties, you need to seek various opinion if u truly need critical solutions to issues..

Siga is doing a great Job here, but I think we shld try as much not to make it a one man show....

@earthgreeners, You could respond to my question above. I see ur moniker on other immigration fora too so I guess we all go around to seek information. With Siga now, it seems like a one man show because this is actually the first time someone is responding to an admission based inquiry. I remember someone telling me that I should look for my "kparapko" that people are in different stages as if it not the school route most people travelling here are using. People are talking to him presently cos he seems to have answers

I would love to relate with you personally, you seem to have all the information I may need and probably in same field. Please I won't mind having your email.
