I got a mail from Dalhousie University today that my application for M.Eng has gotten a positive review but I need to provide a proof of funding on/or before May 2, 2016 to finalise my admission.
While working on that, who can help me with information on available scholarships over there?

Please help a friend.

First of all, your school grades dont significantly come to play in this PR application.
Just look at your minimum ielts score in determining if you are eligible for points.
Less then 7(from 6.5below) in any band does not qualify you for points.
So all you have are your degree(15 points) and age(25/30 points (you didnt state your age) ) Your nysc experience will help you in preparing career episodes for skill assessment, so its still very useful.
What you can bank on is working hard to get higher scores in an English proficiency exam. I ll advise you tty PTE since you ve just done ielts. Your ielts will still be useful, so its also not a waste.

Hummm... My deadline is fast approaching bro.
They said 7days but I can't even track it..... I have been tracking it since day 3. I have used the website u posted "item not registered on our data base".. Mehn this nipost are destiny killers.

mctowel01:
Ok, from the look of things.. Your best bet in going for PR direct(189 visa subclass) is to get the 60 points required from other means other than work experience. From your age, you
Age: 25 points
Btech: 15 points
Total= 40
This means you have to look for 20 points from English proficiency. I ll advise you go for PTE if you are aiming to getbthe required 20 points.
Tho there is still skill assessment stage after, but the good side is that EA doesn't require work experience to be mandatory. You need career episodes which can be from school projects and internships.
I guess i have summatized the path i know. There is also this state nomination, but i dont know much about that path

Hello sir/madam.

I sent my school documents to Germany since 23/03/2016 using nipost registered mail but since then, am unable to track my documents or even know the whereabouts of my very important documents. I was told it Wil take 7days to get to her destination and given RR524679201NG to track it. I am really worried now because the deadline for submission is getting close (5th, April). I am very agitated now. My career is involved. Waiting for a reply. Thank you

I filled the form A in FCMB and money was deducted from my account after 3 days only to be returned after 1 week and I was told the bidding in CBN is not successful. Which other banks does it successfully. Please I need help urgently. I need to pay the school fees now.

Hello everyone, landed in Perth some hours ago, waiting for my connecting flight to Sydney. Everyone seems nice and laid back here. Later folks.
My OSHC starts tomorrow and I landed in Australia today, no use my case do example o.

Mrsnja:
You need to contact the institution first. They will instruct you on how to generate a reference number or code and with that you can begin to fill the form. I'm assuming the process is the same as western money business solutions because that was the one I used and it worked very well.

Cottyekundayo and Mrsnja,

Hello guys!

Could we please walk through how the form a doc would be filled using GlobalPay?

(just the most significant aspects)

Thanks a lot I even tracked it with Canadapost.ca. It was delivered the same date as trackitonline.ru
Thanks. I just sent the school a mail to confirm delivery.

awoononi:
That will be USD as AUD was converted to USD using WUBS.

chocobere:
I am just so upset. My school said they delivered my transcript to nipost nov2015 , it hasn't Gotten to my school in Canada since. I can't even track it. Nipost website isn't giving room for that. My tracking number RR050753343NG.

I used First Bank. You are very well on track! Just make sure you submit your Form A application latest end of April.

Goodluck

jorgan:
For those that are yet to pay their fees, I will give u the following advice:-

- use any of the leading banks in Nigeria to process your payment (First bank, Union bank, Gtbank or Stanbic IBTC)

- Don't let the restriction on forex discourage you, the earlier you fill the form A, the better for you.

- When you fill the Form A with any of the listed banks above, no matter what do not withdraw your application. Just make sure that the bank has stamped and signed where neccessary and has submitted your application to their headquarters.

- It can take as long as 4 weeks for the bank to supply your application with forex. So be patient

- Donot put your eggs in one basket. Explore other means to get your school fees across.

Goodluck

jorgan:
a big Amen! Thanks

Solitin40:
@jorgan and @awo
please share how u pay for ur school fees
instead of sending pm drop the information here so others can learn and gain from it
Thanks

Mrsnja:
You are welcome. I think you should go to a branch with an experienced hand on that desk. If possible insist on what you want to do. Just go ahead and fill your form A. Put the reference number and the rest of the information and submit.
Most of them don't know it. I had the same experience until the guy called his head office.

djpope:
Are we using pencil or Biro for the writing test?

Finn081:
Sorry for replying late bro. Go to www.nipost.gov.ng and click on Track and Confirm.

Solitin40:

adebayoolatunji:

swaggprofessor:

I have been calling their customer care and the lady on desk don't even have an idea of when the speaking test is. to those who have written their test pls I wanna know if the speaking test comes b4 the main test or after??.

Bamz:
Hi there... this is sort of new to me as well. In essence Form A works in line with the WU GlobalPay Solution? From what I enquired, payment can be made in one's local currency.

Hey Cottyekundayo,
Any useful info yet? I'm in touch with someone else that has used it but he's yet to give me the low-down of how he paid.
