hey guys,



I am confused with various course titles,

1. Please clarify the difference between Advanced Diploma and a Post Graduate Diploma?

2. If they are different, Which one of these is considered to be a better qualification in labor market?

3.I am planning to do a master later which one of these programs will help me get an admission into a masters program?

For those travelling and don't have a place to stay. U can stay in rented hostels in your city while you look for accommodation. Hostels are cheaper than motels and hotels.. I saw one in Niagara Falls for 16-20CAD a night. One can stay 3 days and use dose 3days and rent d accommodation u so desire.

Visit hostels.com type ur city and enjoy.



Hope dis helps anyone here.. Bless

Check for Advanced Diploma or Fast track courses related to your program (2yrs). Most certificate programs are 1yr.

you in canada already

fxsly:
eddy20 are u sure with this info about 1yr PGD n u stay 1 more year after studies, 2yr PGD n u stay 2more yrs after studies?

yes am very sure,u can ask other NL readers or better still go and read it at canada immigration website....

rayval:

Thanks nd thanks alot-i really understnd ur explanation. But can I actually get a 2yrs PG or I will have to go for another program that's is going to take two yrs..i'm actually interested in going for either pet. Engr tech, chem tech or envir. Tech..most PG I am seeing are 8month s##i am interested in colleges#

yes u can get a 2 year PG,just check for more colleges,u will surely see a 2 year PG....go to google,browse for Ontario colleges and u wud see a list of all colleges,den u can check them.check for colleges in alberta too

warrikid:
Greetings Oga siga,I got ur mail alert on NL but didn't get d mail,dis PM thing no dey work for me I guess. Hope d fam is doin gud?

above 10 mil is very strong.cos ur studies could cost about 5million and u will need like 10k dollars for expenses wich is like 1.5 mil.so u need a SOA that can cover ur tuition and living expenses and there should still be money left in the account.Plus ur SOA must show good in flow of cash and good outflow of cash

Babahor:

Bro I sent my scanned original certificates and transcripts .no I didn't certify mine o .u don't need to .
My cousin in America paid for me on my behalf cos I don't think Nigerian banks do that.Go to bank and tell them u want to pay for application fee ,they should be able to help u.

u can pay urself by Using a GT bank mastercard,its very simple

rayval:

Thanks Broooo...i really appreciate.. i am sure going to start searching now..bt pls, do i stand a chance of staying longer in canada after the post PG? or probably try to settle down for work experience and all that...thanks##

if u choose a 1 year PGD program,I get to stay in canada for just 1 more year after schooling,but if u choose a 2 year PGD u get to stay in canada for 2 or 3 years after study and u can work full time and then apply for Permanent residency,my advice for u is to choose a 2 year program....

rayval:



that is the problem i am having. in searching for PG, i see dis diploma and advanced diploma thing..and i am actually interested in going to a college...pls i would like info about colleges with PG...pls ...tnks.

postgraduate diploma is called Graduate certificate.so apply for a graduate certificate program

akanni:


Depends on the best deal i see at the end of the day.

am heading to toronto,where u heading to and what school?

akanni:


Air france is having a promo, you can buy your ticket now, make it a return cos 1 way is even more expensive.

i checked earlier to toronto and it was around $1600+, you can then check other airlines if you will get cheaper.

try emirates, egypt air, ethiopian also, and check out worldtraveland, got a good deal for a friend to the UK, you can check their site also to see if they have any good deal.

all the best!

akanni are u gonna use airffrance

kaynine59:
Ok Eddy my bad. All in all God will perfect all for us IJN my brother.....

Amen bro.God go do am for all for us ....

kaynine59:
Lol funny guy. One thing I know is that God is good.... Bro just put all in prayers.. Prayers move mountains ma broda. Land documents or not. I ddnt add land documents to my application but I have a very strong SOA and I am most certain no Jupiter can stop me from getting ma medicals and TRV.... Bro eh I have been in many precarious situations where The "GOD" factor worked miracles. I have been applying to schools for 3years and this time I got admission. God can't bring u dis far and leave u. Am nt try a sound religious, but what u believe is what works for u. Have a positive chi... All will be well. Ud be amazed how far prayers can go bro

Follow the instructions and submit ur documents. Only God na hin de perfect man life.

If u have a strong SOA u don't need the land stuff na.If u read wat I wrote I said land documents are just to improve ur financial position,but if u have strong SOA u don't reali need it.

kaynine59:
Please house after u must have submitted ur medicals how long till u get your visa?

Between for those who want to book flights I suggest you try Turkish Airline. If u hook now against December 21 it's as low as 850USD...they stop only in Altaturk then a connecting flight from there to CA

u will get ur trv 2 to 3 weeks after ur medicals....

tofam3k3:


Heard tickets are expensive in Dec....maybe you should consider early Dec and book on time. considering Lufthansa or KLM

anybody dat his or her TRV now should better book for ticket now,becus by december tickets are extremely expensive....even if u wanna travel december,book ur ticket now....

hyfr:
. Thanks a lot.. A friend on NL told me he used 4M in his SOA with some landed properties and got his visa,how true is this?

yes it is possible to get TRV with 4 mil SOA.but to be on a safer side try get a good SOA and good landed properties with documents....

Friends in the House.Here are some important things u should know.In getting ur TRV the SOP is extremely important,because ur SOP is ur only medium to communicate to the VO so u have to settle down and construct ur SOP.Secondly u need a very good SOA a very solid SOA and also if u have landed properties try and include the House certificate of occupancy of dos lands.If ur are using a company as sponsorship try and summit original company papers. And finally above all You need God.Becus God is the Key.Nobody has a perfect application.It is God that perfects ur application.

Friends that are waiting for medicals.Pray this simple prayer every day. Oh God pls make my application perfect in the eye of the Visa Officer,let him or her not have any choice but to grant me my TRV in Jesus Name.I promise u,if u pray that prayer everyday from ur heart,u will get ur trv.That's the prayer I prayed for 3 complete months till I got my TRV....

hyfr:
Eddy20 please can u brief me on how to write SOP and a good range for SOA

for ur SOA u have to start by introducing yourself,tell dem where u schooled,wen u graduated.u ve to tell the VO why u chose the course u wanna study in canada,u ve to tell dem why u are not doing that same course in Nigeria.U ve to explain to the VO ur future educational plans and finally u have to give a home tie
For ur home tie u can say that u ve a job that u wanna be returning back to,u also have to tell them that having a canadian certificate will improve ur worth in the Nigeria labour market and u will be able to get a job at a reputable company in nigeria.Also having a canada certificate will enable u contribute ur own quota to the growth of a developing nation like Nigeria.Also u give family reasons,telling the VO that u have to return back to ur family,that ur nuclear family and extended family are precious to ur heart,that immediately u conclude ur studies u wud leave.
In conclusion,u tell the VO that u know canada is a developed country and u know the reputation canada has that's why u choose canada for a place of study,tell The VO u are only interested in coming for studies and after ur study u will leave.I hope through the above reasons my application will be considered for a study permit.Thank you.Yours Faithfully.....
As for ur SOA if u have above 10 million and other landed properties then u are good to go....

I am not working at the moment ,ever since I finished my Nysc this year February ,I haven't worked with any company but I have funds in my account that as been there since my days in school..I hope that won't be a problem with them,more also I have been reading some posts on here and I'd like to ask if it's compulsory for my sponsor and I to bear the same surname ,,,does he av to be my family ?..I have someone ready to be my sponsor but he doesn't bear my surname ,will that also be a problem?

its not compulsory that u bear the same surname with ur sponsors,but u have to explain in ur statement of purpose to the Visa officers the relationship u share with ur sponsor and u have to give strong reasons with ur sponsor chooses to sponsor u...many people have received trv without using people with same sur names.so its all about ur packaging
