Please someone advise me: I secured admission for a school in Calgary (Fall start 2015). I applied for visa but was denied because my documents were incomplete. Right now I am trying to apply again by 17th of this month. Knowing that it takes 6 weeks to process study permit; I will be expecting my application to be fully processed by 28 August (just 10 days from the program start date).
If I do upfront medical and I am successful, will they issue me study permit that very day (August 28th) ? or is there another stage before issuance.
If I am issued a study permit by 28, what are my chances of booking a flight ticket within 9 days?

I advise you defer your admission to Winter 2016 based on the ffg:
1- No one knows how long your next app process will take.
2- upfront med doesn't guarantee ur immediate collection of trv
3- flying within 9days of booking might be really expensive.
Consider these and make ur decision

Brotherly, why have thou insisted on giving yourself headache..
I'm done with this with you o..

You're going from the answer to the question...

Congrats, my fellow Microbiologist. Although, over the years, I changed my career course.
Thank God your app has been approved. Praise God.
Your song makes me feel you might just change course like I did, n become a G.O. Lol!

tnuola:


Lmao.. I'm actually really sweet sha...
Like really really really sweet and nice too. And I'm a cool kid

Rotfl! Cant stop laffing. Funny, saying dt about urself. Although, if one doesn't praise herself, who will. I like u jor, u must be really sweet, nice n cool.
Ok, dt was to ease off the tension i was beginning to have about the online route issh. Online or Paper, it dont matter. God is God. You never know what is being averted when people are delayed. Life is spiritual.
Pls, no one should attack me. It's my belief.

tnuola:


Me nko *eyelashes*

Ah! Tnuola, ur mouth go sharp pass my own ooo. I go dey beat u everyday. U will have explanation for everything i do or say. I no fit for prof kid sis. U will be nice too though.

hayqinsbFX:
I don't know if it's in lagos or accra...
Never knew online guys also track..
It will end in praise in the end..

Thanks.
I feel like u will be a nice kid bro but kind of troublesome n protective of his big sis. I dont know y i feel this way though. *smiles*

hayqinsbFX:
Same here o..
I mailed vfs and they tolld me it's processing in accra.
I guess that's their new style..
2weeks here too

Mine will be 4wks on Monday, and it says it's being processed at the Canada Visa Office. Not stated whether it's accra or lagos though it's an online route. What do u guys think?

Hello HayqinsbFX.
IMO, that dedicateDD's post is actually annoying. Don't mind him ja re. We love u like dt even if u talk too much but u don't. You are just a nice guy. You help proffer solutions which is commendable.
House,
I see on vfs dt my app is being processed at d Canada Visa Off but some people say they receive mails dt theirs are being processed at Accra. Pls, i need clarity on this.
Thanks
NB: pls, dont refer me to read somewhere in Part 1. Lol!

tnuola:


Yh it is... Don't worry, it wil end in Praise.

My dear, that's what matters ooo.

Now, I believe paper route is faster.
It's not fair on the online routers.

I heard oh its sad. We love to look for the cheapest of the cheapest. Anyone coming abroad to study is definitely not from a hungry family. It's advisable to spend that extra coin on getting a good flight.
Ethiopia airline is messed up as well.

Why did u say Ethiopian airline is messed up as well? Pls, let's know

Gulean:
Thanks @Lexyj123. Can I get it from the state CID headquarters in my state here?You think is acceptable?As coming to lagos just for this will be a big deal.

Yes, u can. I know someone who did same. Just go to the state CID with a copy of ur passport, 2photos, n over N10k. Your docs will be forwarded to Alagbon. My friend got his police cert within 2wks though(a long time compared with 2hrs or so at Alagbon)

hayqinsbFX:
Did yu also do upfront medicals?

Ok, so what if he did an upfront med. How would u interpret the message he received?

mevisbleek:


University of windsor

How good is this school?

Cally14:


Really? What local government are you?

Ibadan. CD @ secretariat

tnuola:


She said 'was' o, better ask her what year looool... @crich I'm not attacking now o, just suggesting a correct question

Lol

Ugochux:


Hehehehe...'Was'..lol
On Your Own..

Yeah, 'was' though but really Oyo as a state not o.y.o

hayqinsbFX:
@team12 I agree with yuou to an extent on that.
You hav to tell them why ure not satsfied after goiing through almost the same thing here in your country
Thiss would make the know that you're really pained about the state of the educational system and you solely wannnaa go abroad and develop yourself.
I stole a paragraph from a friend that got hs TrV wheree he says the incessant strikes is a major factor of wanting to school aabroad.
Do you think that's paaintng nigeia bad?

Yes, incessant strike n other education defect are good reasons for going to study abroad. This shouldn't affect ur coming back to work in Nigeria, should it? But when u say things like nothing works in Nig, etc, then that's telling d VO, u dont like ur country n wont be coming back. U get?

Ugochux:


My neighbour...its well!

I was ur neighbor too na. Oyo

Team12, take '5'. You have hit the nail hard at the middle of its head, n i'm sure d head has a dent now. Lol!
True observation. Real talk.

tnuola:


Osun

And mine, Oyo. Lol! I know tnuola will attack me now. Lol!

Pinkygrace:

Her university promised her a job since 2011 till now and other unversities, they said go and do masters first which she has done. My dear she is so down.

Scroll up a bit and read Team12's contribution. She also had a first class. An eloquent, intelligent n knowledgeable first class material(plus masters sef) has a very good place in Nigeria except all ur friend did was 'cram' to pass even at dt, if she can try a bit to sell her degree, the sky is her limit. There's no bank dt wont employ her. I hope she's smart cos i don't understand why she cant get a job. She, not the employers, is causing demotivation for other students. She shouldn't sit on top bike ooo, n dulling herself.

Pinkygrace, how long did she apply for? How many organisations did she apply to? How was her presentation/performance at the interviews(very key)? Why should first class give u an automatic job? She should be able to reconfirm her intelligence to the interviewers.
Let her go teach in her university instead of dt secondary sch. Let her not frustrate her degree. Go, advise her

Pinkygrace:

Crich I beg to differ, let me give an example of someone I know personally she graduated with. First class in Agric economics, could not get a job she went for masters and got distinction up till now no work after thousands of application . She teaches in a secondary school where she is paid 30k. I have told her to apply to Canada she will get schoolarship for PHD , guess what she is not motivated at all. Last week she asked me wht is all the strees for

Ah! Her case needs special prayers. What happened to bank jobs? Ah ah! Not a 30k job na no matter how bad. There's something wrong somewhere. I still stand on my earlier statement. First class has a place somewhere good in this country as long as it can be defended. U dont expect a first class material to be employed if he cant sell himself/defend d degree during an interview.

hayqinsbFX:
In your days, a first class students life is made already!
Nowadays a first-class civil engineering student can be working in a block making industry!
One word! MOTIVATION!
It has disappeared!

I dont completely agree. What applied in his days still apply now.
If u have good grades esp a 1st class, n actually know your onion, d sky is ur limit. I speak from my family's experience. I still know kids who finished say 2/3yrs ago with good grades n work in very good places without any 'influence'.
This mentality of no motivation is what students already have before they even get into school. Very wrong mentality. I would have shared some experiences on this forum but it would be a very long story. Kids should always strive to be tops regardless of the 'no motivation' factor, and see where it gets them.

mevisbleek:
What is happening these days. Is it that Nigerian universities are simply giving everyone 2:2 abi students are no more serious with their studies? Please no one should get offended. I schooled in naija oh don't get me wrong biko, then 2:1, cgpa of 3.9 and above seemed to be the norm.

Hmmm!!!
1) Lecturers are no longer serious. They dont impact knowledge. They dont even have the knowledge to impact. Students dont put efforts into personal studying.
2) Students say no be who read know book, na who pass. So, they try to work their way up from their 'pass' brain to 3rd class or 2.2
3) Lecturers say 1 n 2.1 belong to them, so they ensure students dont get good grades. Wetin person no go see for Naija.
4) Students say 2.2 is okay. So they intentionally work towards it
5) The atmosphere isn't conducive. This is the reason we do better when we school in other countries
6) The list is endless
My elder bro contested one of his results and the lecturer made sure he ended up without a 1st class but a 2.1.
My kid bro had a 1st class but not without a big fight.
I'm sure ur observation has always been, not new. Although it's not the fault of some that they came out 2.2 n below

AgapeCharis:
Okay ma'am. I just learnt that you're one of the "madams" we have here. Hope you were not offended with the "miss"?

Lol! I'm sure if you see me, you wil think i'm far younger than u. So, leave madam thgs ooo.
House, pls spare me ooo. TRV on my mind not madam thgs. Lol! Tnuola, u started this, pls rescue me.

AgapeCharis:
Haba nau.
How am I to know her status when I've not met her before? It's not like I can deduce from her dp. Besides you don't even know me and you're referring to me as a kid.

Don't take it personal. He doesn't know me either. He was only kidding. My status is Miss. It was only a joke. It helps the tension in the forum

berexio1:
Guy, u don't have respect oo..All these chill-dren of nowadays? Na Madam Crich u dey call miss? Cos we dey online forum? U better apologise!

Ah! Berexio1 what's that? Lol! Who are those 'liking' berexio's comment? Be careful o. lol! I claim big madam sha but leave madam things o, na trv i dey pray for now like the others too.

AgapeCharis:
Lol! Sorry miss.
I graduated from there too.

AgapeCharis:

Respect bros!
