Hello everyone, I got my passport today & was refused based on just finances, the three boxes ticked, even though I paid 1st semester tuition, my question now is, I am confused, if I get to tackle finances, hope there is no possibility of getting denied again based on another reason or I should just end canadian dream on this note because the emotional trauma isn't here.NB: I am a nurse, applied for Pgc in a nursing related course,

I get. File number is the same thing as application number. There will be no 'FILE' number written on the correspondence letter. It will be the same UCI and Application number on your account that will be quoted on the letter. So order your GCMS file with the application number on your account which should start with S.................., It is the same thing.
@Austinpee4...God bless you, we shall meet someday

Quick question for the nurses, what course can someone who studied nursing in Nigeria study in Canada, I understand international students are not allowed to go for course, any help will be most appreciated.
I am a nurse with Bsc & RN, unfortunately masters In nursing is not open to international applicants, only certificate courses, so you can do further findings, I have sent mails to schools & they insisted one has to be licensed as a nurse in a province in Canada to be able to opt for masters, not sure the VOs are aware though, yet to get my note though, so I can't say if I was refused based on choosing certificate course.

Check you account, your application number is there too. In the area where you see your UCI number.
Austinpee...boss! It's not application that I was asked to send, the person helping me to request my note said file number which I think it's supposed to be on the correspondence letter which wasn't uploaded.

am RN holder going for BSc. I've did alot of research and it seems is difficult to consider international applicants for nursing degree. some of the school said I should go for non nursing electives and that wouldn't be good for me considering age. I just needed to upgrade from Rn-Bsc.

AND I don't know how it will be going for practical nursing (another diploma).

please colleague any suggestions for me sir/ma ?

thanks
As for me, like I said, I have both RN & BSC already & masters should be the next thing but masters is only open to Registered nurses in Canada, you have to the license of a particular province as nurse before you can apply for masters, ONLY certificate courses are open to international nurses, could use that to tackle next application, that's if that's why I was denied because I am yet to know why, as for you, send emails to enough universities, they take RNs for BSC, my only concern is how you are going to convince the VO in your SOP because it's like they don't know how this health line thing works...God help us all, you might want to try U.K though, I have a colleague that got BSc admission with just RN. Safe!

I have not seen or hear anyone applying for nursing.
please gurus why?
Does it mean am alone?


nobody is even discussing about nursing here weather diploma, degree or masters.

God I didn't have a colleague in nairaland.
I am a nurse with Bsc & RN also, applied for trv & was denied days ago, don't know the reason yet though, applied for Pgc enhanced nursing practice clinical & critical, would have loved to do it as a masters because have got good grades but all masters in nursing in Canada are not open to international nurses except certificate courses, that's why I opted for Pgc, and I got to know about SOP after I joined this thread, would have stated it as a major reason for choosing Pgc in nursing & not masters, so I am waiting to get my note on why I was refused in other to know if I should reapply or not, feel free to ask me questions.
