God came through for you, what of others? Your statement sound selfish My dear, I apologize if my statement came off offensive. Have it in mind that this is not by works that I should boast, but me acknowledging God's mercy and grace that came through for me when I almost lost it. So, I would encourage anyone who needs the same testimony or even something better to seek God's face and call upon Him, He will always answer. Jesus loves us. |

Truth be told, I can't thank my God enough. As of June 2022, I needed to show 10k CAD(NGN3.5m with CBN rate) in my account for living expenses as a student. I knew what it took me to raise that amount. As of today, that same amount is about NGN8.5M.
I wonder what I would have done if God didn't come through for me. 247 Likes 13 Shares |

Bankowner: I pray that Nigeria gets better so people won't have to think of japa. But right now, in my opinion, if you have the capacity to japa please do.
I agree that not everyone will make it in Canada but I can guarantee that with the way the system works here, and if you're wise in cutting your coat according to your cloth, the odds that you will make it here is higher than staying back in Nigeria.
Just today, I took time to study the bus and subway routes of the regular places I go to see how I can minimize my transit cost. I realized I've been spending so much on going to school, placement agency, and work. Taking buses and subway within a particular city transit costs less because you get free transfers within the hour so for every place I go now, I'll try make sure I stick to the same city bus where possible and also try avoid intercity bus routes.
Hello bro, hope you are good. I'm barely 2 weeks here. Could you please guild me through some things. I sent a dm already 1 Like |

favourdamsel: Hello, please why should one avoid Ghana must go bags for carrying some of your items? Especially the foodstuffs. Please is Ghana must go bag not allowed as part of your laugage. I weighed only my empty traveling box is about 9kg without putting my item. I wanted to use Ghana must go bag as my 2nd laugage for packing my foodstuffs to 23kg to max the weight.
Please really need more answers on this Ghana must-go bag ? My dear, you can use your Ghana must-go bag. I traveled recently to Calgary and I even used 2 ghana must-go bags. My foodstuff and other things were intact. Once you check in your luggage in Nigeria, the next time you will see your bags is your final destination. 5 Likes 1 Share |

17 weeks on the dot.
In January I sent a lot of emails and like three webforms. All I got was generic responses. I needed a decision because the last day to pay my 1st term fees or withdraw and be eligible for full refund (excluding deposit of $1000) was on the 28th. My program doesn't do deferral but they said they could assure us of a readmission for fall term, we would only have to pay the application fee of $100 but we won't have to pay a deposit of $1000 again because it would be moved to fall. Like 4 of my course mates (1 Nigerian and 3 Indians) too this offer and withdraw and I was tempted to take this offer too; but my sister (my sponsor) said no, I should have faith (funny thing she is not a believer of faith, and she is very logical and basis her decisions on concrete facts and not hope). I paid my fees on the last day (I sent the fee receipt payment through a webform) and continued with the program online. Everyone was online including domestic students because of the Omicron variant. But they resumed in-person/hybrid 2 weeks ago. And believe me, I thought online classes was bad, but hybrid is way worse. I didn't send any emails or webforms after January and I even applied for a remote job for a US company to keep me distracted (I got the job too, and resumed this week). I later decided to order for my gcms notes on the 4th of March, though I don't think it caused my decision to arrive 2 weeks after. I got my PPR without them even asking me for an updated LOA to ensure I was still enrolled.
My background Bsc in Architecture from University of Nigeria (UNN) Program in Canada: Masters in Digital Media from Ryerson University (I explained I was focusing on Virtual and Augmented Reality in my sop, I will post my sop draft here for anyone who needs inspiration. Please inspiration, do not copy exactly) 3+ year of work experience in architecture and construction (was never a full-time worker, only during nysc, was always an independent contracted designer, submitted my last contract).
I will post my documents shortly, my new boss keeps sending tasks to do.

makano: Hello Decluttergirl
Before applying for a Canadian Study permit Visa, you must have an LOA from a DLI. An LOA is one of the major documents required to apply for a study permit application. So in your case, for the school to issue you your LOA, they require you to pay $1000CAD, after which they will issue you your LOA and you can then apply for your Visa with the LOA..
Why go for a Diploma when you can go for a Masters's program(1st class, 2nd Class Upper) or a Postgraduate Program(2nd class Lower, 3rd class).. Yea, some peeps have gotten their Visa with an Advanced Diploma LOA, but as a BSc graduate, you have more chances of getting your Visa if you either go for a Masters program or a Post graduate Program..
Peace Good morning Makano , I trust you're doing great. God bless you for all the help and support to this great forum, it is well appreciated. I plan to resubmit my application which was denied earlier, could you please review my LOE to be sure I have addressed the singular issue raised by the VO. I sent you a DM already, thank you. |
