Please to anybody reading this, how far can 6m go for masters in Canada??

Your tuition fee alone in the cheapest university Memorial university Newfoundland is 25kcad... Minus DAT and den your answer to your question appears

koonleh:
ok will do that right now, only i have to pay another $100 for application, lol

Unfortunately yes you have to

koonleh:
thank you for ur reply, i appreciate. i was on the opinion that since this is an just for my career, perhaps they dont have a pgd in culinary management.
i understnd your point, but this is my career progression (my thought.) although i also got an offer for 1 year graduate certificate in hospitality and tourism, which has limited relation to my career, should i go for this?

There are PGD courses related to culinary available . you need to search .. I believe there's one at centinnial college already pointed out..

PGC in Food Tourism (Culinary Tourism)
@ Centennial College, Ontario

PGC in Food Media @ Centennial College, Ontario

Thats the best route you should follow and best route with higher chances of visa approval

koonleh:
Pls I want u all to help me analyse this situation before applying/ paying sch fees after getting admission

A single mother of 2, (4&6 years), bsc sociology 2011, 30yrs of age, career as a chef since after NYSC, got admission for 2 yrs diploma in culinary management. I just concluded 6 mth training in a chef sch, I also just opened a company registered with CAC for my chef sch and other things like poultry

I want to apply with the kids cuz dnt want to leave them alone, but I heard leaving them behind can be like home ties or take the youngest one. If I leave them, their father can come US to pick them or rather stay until they can visit me

Pls the house advice on this, and with my company and self sponsorship with 2 landed property in my name, what are the others things that Can guarantee financial stability.

Thank u so much.

Lemme be honest with you ... diploma Thats a problem.. You might get denied with the reason "purpose of visit". The VO will wonder why arr you going for a diploma when you have BSC or HND (where is the progression there). why not a PGD. I would advise you go for a PGD in culinary management.

Ifesinachi22:
Please house advice me please.

I'm writing my SOP presently. Meanwhile, I have a HND in Dental Therapy and want to study Dentistry in Canada. The Dental schools i wrote to said i should take a Pre Dentistry degree in the sciences to have a sound Science background before Dental school. I applied for a Pre Dental Associate Degree in Biology and was accepted.

Coming to the SOP.

Which degree I'm going to write on?
The biology I'm going for or the Dental school which is my speciality that I'm going to transfer my credits to?
Please answers are needed urgently.

God bless us all

Have you been accepted into the dental school, from your post, No you haven't so your sop should be on biology. Try to link dentistry with biology to prove that there's a reason why you are starting with biology before proceeding to dental school. also let the VO know about the prerequisites of doing dentistry which is why u are going for the biology course.

It will end in praise

jonsnow92:
Still didn't get any mail, please can you drop your mail here let me send you a mail.

Check now

Onweke:
I'm also seeing the same message that we are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements and also background check.

Would it be possible to get medical request without the biometrics ?

Nope!

jonsnow92:
@Anon123 please boss i couldn't get your pm, please we can communicate through my mail. akindelebrave@gmail.com

I really appreciate it.

I just did .. You can check

otunbanimi:
Thanks for this.

But, ain’t they doing the two (eligibility stage and background check)simultaneously ?

I can see that the background check is reading “we are processing your background check”

Most times , its done one after the other .. Its on very very few occasions that it happens to be done simultaneously.

They are basically checking if you have a travel history ,criminal history both here and abroad .. That doesn't take much time .

dommakavelli:
That's the part where you wearing your praying cap. Once you pass eligibility review. You're most likely gonna get your visa.
Goodluck!

No really most likely ... Its wen its decide if you are Canada bound or you are not

otunbanimi:
How did you know your status?

Mine has been like this like 5th day I submitted

You are currently in the eligibility stage where they go through your admission letter ,sop proving if you are genuinely eligible to be consider a student going for studies, acct statements and supporting documents to decide if you are eligible. if you are found worthy , you will get a medical request. So pray

sewenswepzy:

Tonyodg:
wow! I asked something like this earlier on concerning omitting a document and sending it to them, I got an answer which is
After submitting your application online you can’t add any other document or send to them unless they require it from you they would contact you.
Keep your head high have hope and pray it would end well best regards

Don't wait for them to ask .. You are only able to send across after your biometrics. You can send via webform or email.

Tonyodg:
can one do that also if a police clearance was omitted ? Though I don’t know how compulsory it is

YES

Dameelee:

Hassan19:
Hi everyone, I'm new here. I'm planning on applying for graduate certificate programmes for September fall 2020 in canada. Some schools shows availability for some courses for September fall 2020, my question is that can I still apply and get admitted? Or I rather apply towards January? I'll sincerely appreciate a response from anyone. Thank you.
God bless.

Yes you can .. But January is ideal cos September is already here

Legacyedition:
I heard fanshawe doesn't take 3rd class..

Conestoga college does

quadriolakunle:
Hi guys,

What are the chances of getting into a top uni in Canada to study MSc in Economics or MBA with a first class degree in Mathematics.

And the chances of full funding too?..

Pls help my career.

Nobody here knows

abokikhalifa:
Please any one knows of any Canadian university that offers post graduate. I graduated with a 3rd class here in Nigeria. I want to apply for my post graduate in a Canadian institution. I belong to the faculty of art and social sciences. Please any information will go a long way. Thanks to all the great minds here. One love

You can't apply for a PGD in a university but rather in a college ..
Algonquin college
Conestoga college
Centennial college
Fanshaw college
Mohawk college
Humber college..
The list long

Chris182:
Came across this just now

My friend just went there this morning .. The offices are open for biometrics for Italy and other countries . thats what he was told ..

frostfr89:
Hello ,

Does this means the upfront medicals won't give a full visibility till the process is complete

and is the up-front a wrong step to take rather than just wait to be sent a mail for medicals?

thanks

It means if u did upfront medicals and you get passport request, then your application is 90% sure of approval . if you didn't do upfront and just applied and later on IRCC sends you a mail to do medicals , your application is 90% sure of approval.

ShokiScientist:
good afternoon.
please does canadian visa embassy conduct random drug tests for prospective students ?

Not random.. There are specific test they take eg chest xray, BP test, HIV and other disease test, eye sight test too.. They are only two register clinics eligible to have the test conducted for IRCC in Nigeria

Osemigho:
When did they start that? The Last time I checked , study permit have conditions for working not necessarily that you will be issued a work permit with study permit. Maybe my knowledge is outdated sha.

Okay .. You will be issued a work permit with the conditions that you are only allowed to work 20hours a week during school session and 40hours per week during the holidays

owee:
I needed this. Quite inspirational considering many of us are in this position expecially with regard to age.

Age is not a limit boss...

neverlosehope:
Good day All,

I will like to encourage sometime with a little about my story.
I graduated from a Nigerian university with a second-class lower division degree in STEM at 24 years and finished NYSC at 25 years. Unfortunately, as peculiar with Nigerian environmental, I got my first job at 28 years after 4 years in the wilderness. The delay in getting a job was my mediocre degree (i.e., finishing with 2.2) and lack of working experience at 25 years (how will I get the necessary work experience when I have never been employed).

Fast forward to a decade later, after working for over a decade, got frustrated with Nigeria society placing a limited to what you can achieve, I decide to make a change to my family situation by returning to school in US/Canada. Initially, there were few obstacles, I got admitted into a fully-funded master’s degree program in the US with an average stipend by God’s grace. I left the shore or Nigeria with my entire family and started the program at 40 years. I graduated with a master’s degree with a GPA of 3.56/4.0 at 42 years. Fortunately, I was admitted into a fully-funded Ph.D. program in Canada’s top university with a very generous stipend and started the program at 42 years. I have currently completed the program required coursework with a GPA of 4.0/4.0, passed candidacy exam, five publications, and 3 manuscripts under review in top peer-review journals.

What is my point?
Despite where you might have started from, the environment you live might not be favorable to you, age or family commitments might be barriers. However, do not give up, please hold on to your dream. The grace of God will see you through. If you quit today, you have failed tomorrow.

Please note
My story is not unique; I have seen many tremendous journeys of beautiful people who do not quit/give up and achieved great heights. I am sharing my story to encourage you that no barrier is big or strong enough to stop you from achieving your dream.

I hope to challenge someone !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you very much pls..
This is wat we should endeavour to share and not place your own fears on others with all this "don't apply for your visa cos of so so and so", if you dont want to apply, dont apply, only advise on what you feel is going on and not enforcing your own fears on others to follow suit. This brother faced challenges ,am even surprised he got funded with his 2.2, thats pure belief in yourself and utter trust in GOD. If you want to stop chasing your dreams and base your trust on a data and not believing in GOD cos a data shows 80% Nigerians are getting denied, pls go ahead but don't make others do the same. What about the 20%, are they aliens?.. Thanks bro for the uplifting testimony.

Manifoldlove:
Hello fam, please assist. I am trying to fill and upload those Imm forms, but I discovered that the information doesn't save on the forms once I upload on the IRRC site. What can I do, please help.

Are you using an updated adobe reader?
What you do is click on validate after filling
Then click on files and choose "save as"
This should work
