[quote author=Sir P!]No p , another thing is if you're not using lufthansa for the entire journey , say you're flying lagos frankfurt on lufthansa but frankfurt toronto on air canada you might need a transit visa especially if you have to re check your bags in , I'm not sure though since I used lufthansa all the way to T.O . But like I said earlier I'm sure if you're using lufthansa all through you're fine[/quote]oh i see!!! Well said boss...i tap from ur blessing

galala123: if flying lufthansa via Germany, Emirates via Dubai, Etihad via Abu Dhabi, Air France via Paris, KLM via Amsterdam you dont need a transit visa coz you are only transiting through the hubs of the various airlines and it is more economically convinient for them to re arrange their passengers to connect to their final destination. They already have an MOU with their host government. For British Airways and Airlines such as American Airlines, Delta, US airways you need a transit visa to pass through their hub as they want to pre authorise whoever is going through their country and do adequate security checks well in advance.

With respect to one way tickets, I have had to buy a return ticket from a foreign country though I was not planning to go back coz it was cheaper than a one way ticket to Nigeria. You can never tell with tickets as they change by the minute via complex intrigues employed by the airline operators dats why you may buy your ticket twice the price or half of the price of the passenger seated next to you. Competition plays an important role in the price mechanism. Funny enough, I was once given quote of over £600 to change the return leg of my BA ticket at Heathrow and the same lady at the counter gave me an option of buying a return ticket (lhr-abv-lhr) for about £500!
I called their online customer line and was able to change it for about £200 as it wasmidsummer with flighta fully booked

sweet info!!! Boss ....u'r highly blessed...due 2 dat u aint got no choice but for me to tap from ur blessing ......i pray God answers ur prayer dis week sir

Delotion: Kudos for ur relentless efforts bro, Could u pls xplain explicitly on how to secure funding/scholarship/student loans. Thnks in anticipation (thats the link bro www.nairaland.com/1229480/travelling-canada-part-4/233 yep tuition fees are on the high side which was why i said you should explore funding/schorlarship option.....if u have a first class or a second class upper den u will get funding...no gock am....

information on securing funding/scholarship should b on d sch's website....or once you secure an admission u automatically get a funding...buh dat differs with uni....sum uni offer 50% funding and sum get funding based on d kinda degree(either course bassed or research based masters) some peeps here applied for a research base course and got full funding from d prof or doctor dey wana work with so select d sch's u wana go and browse tru dia website and do ur little research on that....

Aduke02: You can scan as many pages as u'll need so long as u compress the file to fall within the 4mb limit. U can use free online pdf compressors. That's what I used. After scanning, save d file on ur desktop. Then google free online pdf compressor. A popular one is neevia pdf compressor. Its a pretty straightforward process. I'd advise as many Winter applicants as possible to use d online method too.

for faster responce!!! This is d tested and trusted route...if any 1 out there is contemplating on which route to go, there u av it....dis route is best especially for late submitters.....tanx ma

tolyem: I am highly interested in submitting my study permit application via the online route this time but the large volume of supporting documents is giving me a great challenge.
Already, I have almost 35 pages of documents to be scanned which seems too long to me for an online attachment.

To the fellows who had passed through this route, what do you suggest I do? Or should I just do my paper submission Jeje because I can't afford to make mistake....Regards to Oga Siga & Newacca (With your contributions, I hope I am good to go now) JEEEEEEEEESUS........CHAAAANGE Jesus will change my situation positively this time

Pinoralia: Broda, thanks so much.

Can you pls send me the link to the letter of intent format? (felixkolapo@gmail.com)
Calgary, manitoba.... tuition fees are on the high side.

thats the link bro www.nairaland.com/1229480/travelling-canada-part-4/233 yep tuition fees are on the high side which was why i said you should explore funding/schorlarship option.....if u have a first class or a second class upper den u will get funding...no gock am....

seyidollar4real: anyone that used online application mode should pls respond. Thanks

broda i didnt apply online but dis question is a general question...with wat online applicant said previously about the size its 4mb max....u said ur friend has compressed it...i tried dis mysef and i would tel u how to go abt it....after scanning the documents you can copy and paste them on microsoft word...make sure your microsoft word has an inbuilt software to convert to pdf format...if ur microsoft word doesnt av, u can type dis keywords on google 'convert a microsoft document to pdf' the software to do dat will come up...install it and it will automatically be embedded into ur microsoft word...i was able to convert a 43mb document of all my many scanned file to 2.65mb which is still within the range of 4mb stipulated by cdhc...hope dis helps

richard4ssky: i have observ in dis room that B.sc applicant get there Trv and there chance of getting it is higle compare to P.d or masster program, so am i correct on my observation.....

hmmm!!! Bro ur observation get 'K' leg oo....there are tons of pgd/masters guys that got there trv so dont draw ursef back by going to reapply for a bsc degree oo...if u already have ur bsc wit a gud grade den fire on with ur masters...

Pinoralia: University of saskatchewan and.
Memorial University of Newfoundland

both are good and affordable schools.....both comes with good funding/scholarship option so dnt ignore dat part of the application....if u'r going for a research base masters degree..sum1 jst pasted a very convincing letter of intent which u can use along side.... Both do not require toefl....u can also xplore universities like uni of calgary,uni of manitoba,uni of ottawa...make sure u apply for ur course with a university that has two or three start session cuz u mite b required by cdhc to pick anoda session if ur visa app is treated late...d sessions are jan(winter),may(spring),sept(fall)...each uni vary with sessions which is y i said u should explore more uni to ur favour...trust in God nd believe all ur challenges na pure water....

hmmm!!! full house...all waiting for food...

GboyegaD: All you have to do is to follow the guidelines stipulated by the school and be meticulous about it so that you don't mistakenly omit any necessary details. However, if you have specific questions regarding your school, you can ask here and make a reference to the school.

well said sir!!!...make sure its a public institution...avoid sch's like lessons nd lessons like sch...jst like man siga go talk...

Pinoralia: Hi Nairalanders,
I'm planning ahead of next year admission into one of the canadian universities for masters in Engineering. I have gone through the application procedures in the institutions of my choice. I have never processed international admission of any kind before.
Please what are the advices you have for me before sending my applications so as not make some mistake. What other factors am I to put into consideration before I proceed.
Thanks

please whats d name of the institution?? So dat guys dat applied dere would advise u on what to do.....

mikolo2008: Good day to all the gurus in the room, I need some clearifications pls. I studied Bus.Admin (2.2) applied for P.GD in Global business Mgt in Humber and I hv gotten the admission to resume in Jan'14. But still abit sceptical about humber, saw some sad reviews about the school and the program today. Should I go ahead with the visa application or just look out for something else, thanks.

from what guru's in d house said about humber college..its a very gud school..no fear bro!!!....d likes of oga siga can testify 2 this so bro u'r good to go

GboyegaD: For those who are seeking a sample of letter to a professor / department, here is a draft to guide you:

I am writing to inquire more about admission into the **** program in ********* offered by your university.
I am a **** year old Nigerian and would love to move into your ****** program in ********** by Fall 2013.
I hold a ***** degree in ***** from ********, Nigeria at ******* level.
I would like to state that reading through your departmental webpage was a wonderful experience and an eye opener to my further studies. Your ******* areas of research fits into mine and would help build my desired career in ********. Also, your faculty profile reveals a department that houses experts in their fields of research which implies an institution where an inquisitive mind like mine will be well groomed.
I have read through some departmental and university profiles and none can compare to yours in terms of the program curriculum as it fits my expectations and, I seek clarifications on the following:
1. **********
2. **********
I would like to know my chances to be offered admission directly into this program and would also like to know the minimum / average GRE scores if required and if I would be exempted from TOEFL having had all my education taught in English Language.
Attached is a copy of my transcripts for your perusal.
As for funding, I am currently saving towards graduate school however, I have not been able to save enough and would love to know the possibility of being shortlisted for the various graduate funding available and also, the possibility of getting students loan.
Finally, what semesters does the department admit students into the **** program?

Regards,

nice one broda!!!...u'r highly blessed....never d less i tap from ur blessing!!!...oga sir
