Thank you to every single commenter on this thread! Your experiences guided me.

I made the following mistakes: Wrong DOB which I wrote a letter of explanation and the second one is between me and God because it was totally unintentional. Please when you notice any error please write a letter of explanation.

For everyone waiting receive your testimony in Jesus name!

Amen!

It's nothing to worry about ooo and pls don't let that demoralise you in anyway. Further insights I have gotten makes it clear that on the long run, its not about what you get, but rather what you do with what you get. In all your getting, make sure you accumulate experience in your field of interest. I gather that's what gives the edge. Btw, nothing stops you from adding short term professional courses in your related field too.

Ultimately, NEVER OVERRULE THE GOD FACTOR. THAT ALONE OVERRULES EVERYTHING

Alright guys

Here is my TL

Started this journey last year December
Initially chose Management as course of study.
I later remembered that NL was an info hub.
Got on this thread an d mentioned my course choice.
Some folks came up here and told me that I should not waste my money with that course that it is like going for a one year holiday in the UK at the cost of almost 10M investment. Rather I was advised to check the shortage list or choose anything related to IT. I wanted to settle for MIIT as it was an option that merged management with IT.
During this period, my Uni posted that they were going to start Fintech this 2020 sept session. I checked the course, it sited me excellently and it didn`t take long before I fell in love with it.
Course changed from Management to Fintech. Everything went smoothly but CAS was dragging and the wait was tiring. They finally told me CAS was gonna be ready one day. Later in the afternoon same day, School rep called me that he`s got a sad news. School can`t continue with Fintech for reasos beyond their control. CAS landed same day carrying FinTech as my course of study.
I reverted back to my MIIT jeje.
School took 2-3 days to effect change of course on UKVI

Application received by VAC 11th afternoon
Received mail to come for pick up a few minutes before 4pm on Friday 11th
Couldn’t concentrate on anything through the weekend
Picked up Passport on Monday morning 14th Sept that was initially supposed to be my scheduled interview date.
NB : I did no interview eventually neither face-to-face nor phone call.
It wasn’t a priority Visa, I only did walk in to bring interview date forward.

I rather subscribed to Abba’s Super priority and Super favour. Fortunately, He doesn’t have the capability to shame His own

Btw, special thanks to @Mimilyrics, too much of a darling, She literally got me to mail my SOP to her and did a thorough editing and fine tuning. See ehn, I leave holyspirit to do the prayer for you. You are loved.
This family has been invaluable. God bless @Seun Osewa

Convince the VO in your SOP why you chose the course, why Canada etc. You don't have to explain you chose Pgd because masters didn't work out.

Hello house.Please I really your input. About to start applying to schools this month. I have Bsc in Accounting(2.1). Finished nysc april this year. Then did a 3 months Digital marketing Internship job which i really enjoyed and learnt alot.

Now I wanted to apply for a PGD/PGC in marketing management or interactive marketing communications or Advertising Account management. Just any good program related to the Digital marketing I interned as.

But a friend is saying the VO will prefer i enroll for an accounting PGD instead or Global Business Management or International Business program.

Really confused right now. My innocent mum is suggesting i start afresh with a 3years diploma in sales and advertising. But I have Bsc already and I'm 24years old which the VO might not like.

P/S: Masters is more expensive that's why i'm not considering it.

Please guys i'm begging for your suggestions my reliable consultants. Please, biko and mbok
