bro admission if way different from trv as must of the visa officer's don't really make research on things like that, so u must have to explain in details in ur sop the relationship between both courses and let him understand . that's my point .aspa u not working u can tell the vo that u have been been doing voluntary work(maybe helping ur parents in family business) but don't leave an unexplained gap for the vo

OK bro thanks so much I appreciate, will explain it well.

mcobex:
bro I don't understand , pls explain better. to me u said u studied petroleum engineering but u intend going for mechanical engineering now, that's why I said both courses aren't in line so for u to silent the petroleum engineering u must explain to the visa officer what u were doing that period cos the visa officer won't be happy seeing any gap without reasonable explanation for it. explain better let me know what u meant

Yea I intend going for mechanical now but as masters course not undergraduate. Infact it was the petroleum degree I used to get the mechanical engineering admission

I'm thinking you might have to explain to the VO, the connection between petroleum and mechanical engineering. To the best of my knowledge, I know there is no how you'll study pet engr without offering some mechanical engineering courses, you could use that as a point in trying to show connection between the two courses. Also, I know in oil fields there are mechanical engineers on site, who carry preventive and corrective maintenance on moving parts. Hence, you could explain how these engineering sectors complement one another, and you having gained knowledge on pet engr wish to explore mechanical engr in order to have an integrated knowledge. As regards your work experience, working as an admin personnel and customer service agent must have afforded you the opportunity of learning how to deal with different ppl irrespective of individual differences, this advantage could as well help you to be good team player. As far as I know in Oil and gas industries, you don't work in isolation, you work in teams and also during masters you will have group assignments and projects, this soft skill that you have acquired will help you a lot. I hope get what I'm trying to say. I feel you shouldn't give up, all you need is to find a rythmic connection. My thoughts though.

Shalom!

Wow thanks bro you just gave Me a whole new perspective and a huge dose of positivity, jus Wat I needed. Thank you so much, will tailor my statement along those lines

bro I think u have more problem to tackle than just home tie, ur intended program isn't in line with ur previous program so that's a big problem. yes u want to go for another UG program in mechanical, that means u will have to tell the vo what u have been doing for the past 5 years or so (which is the period u used to get ur BSc in petroleum engineering ). If u can explain that educational gap very well then u have a chance

No bro. It's a course only masters Meng. Program in mechanical engineering. I graduated 2014. Finished serving 2015. Worked in customer service in 2016.

Hello my people, m in a dilemma here.. 4me It's tough to prove that I will come back because I don't have real employment. Am going for mechanical engineering, Buh my bachelor's is in petroleum engineering and my Nysc and other jobs Av gotten hav jus been admin and customer service jobs. I really want to start up fresh with mech, but my application seems so porous now. How do I provide proof of strong ties to home apart from family? How do I make this my app add up?

Piethewitch:
No its not a new rule its up to you to go for medical before submitting your application or going for medical after receiving an email from CIC. The reason to why they say until they call you because you might go for medical and then not get the visa

Tnx so much

TRUEPATRIOTLOVE:
It doesn't matter you can apply upfront

Aite bro. Tankz a lot

Thumbs up to all doing a great job on this thread. Pls help me out here. On the visa Instructions for Lagos office, we are told that we shouldn't go for medicals till we are asked to go. However, am seeing lots of people and nairalanders going for upfront medicals. Please is this a new rule? Koz I intend going for medicals upfront.

I don't envy those coming from far distances who have already arrived or have started their journey. This April fool is really serious.
