Admission depends on a lot of things like meeting up with requirements and level of competition among applicants.

Your best shot will be to make a long list of all universities in your preferred province(s), and apply to lower rank ones that offer your choice program. The lower you go in the ranking hierarchy, the easier it gets and the lower the chances and level of funding. Good luck!

Please sir the problem I've encountered so far is locating step 4 "link application to this account" all I see on my account is change password, change recovery question and revoke your GCkey. Please can someone help me out ? Here's the screenshot

Development Economics tally with your undergraduate study. There are a couple of peeps in the program here (UNBC) that studied Economics in their undergrad too.

You may consider the school because it is cheaper and it may help reduce the 'size' of the SOA needed for your TRV application/approval.

Am really sorry bro. just know that we all understand how you feel, personaly I felt like trash when I got that kind. and we are all here for when you are ready to refire.
## (0) I tackle the cheak reason 1 by paying some of my tuition fee although it wasnt required by the school.
##(0) the reason 2. I dont realy have any idea .
##(0) the 3 reason has to do with your program of study and its correspondence to your previous feild.

Lol. Baba,easy na. before bank robbery increase nationwide!
You have a valid point.But i think if he uses a third party sponsor, the totality of commitment will have to be evident like paying of fees n cash transfer to his account. And like you mentioned,paying the fees and upkeep is the real deal.The flow may mean nothing without some level of comittment to show sponsor will truly support him financially What do you think bro? @ Osemigho

There's difference between finance being a problem and proving you are capable financially being a problem. Since you are assured by your brothers that can sacrifice close to 7m per year to you, bros your problem is proving you are financially capable and not finance.

Check your network for people that has heavy account -close to 20m balance and 40m flow. Even though am from a humble background with no support, am 100% sure getting a third party genuine account isn't a problem, but paying fees and upkeep is the real one.

In conclusion, you don't have the problem you think you have!!!! Think and open your senses. By senses, I mean eyes to see people around you with such account, mouth to ask them, etc.

I understand the sponsor thing. Now check out those schools at http://www.mastersportal.eu/study-options/269352964/economics-canada.html
Look for the cheapest schools and apply with good statement of purpose and academic recommendation letters since your CGPA is fairly strong. They might consider your last 2yrs GPA of 3.9 which could stand you a good chance. If you truly want to study in Canada, you will need some patience while at the same tackling your reasons for refusal. Please be focus and handle your case nicely so you get your trv in your next application. It is well with you

Those options are for the rich.

I know NZ and Australia fees can reach 30k with less international funding. I was particularly advised to do masters in Nigeria before considering PhD in NZ by a NZ professor because of funding.

USA fees also high and require some exams like GRE that are easily avoided in Canada. No come get work permit. Plus staying back sef hard pass Canada. Many doing masters in US are considering PhD in Canada because of PR. Fact!

I no know Ireland.

If you can spend #5-8m on school and upkeep, try Australia and NZ. I read they Have easy stay compare to US and similar to Canada. If only you can truly afford it. I don't believing in going there and struggling.

But based on my reading so far and my CGPA, I prefer Canada because it mostly provides full ride funding in my course like US and stay like NZ and Australia.

That's why I dey run and pray for Canada.

Why did you choose Canada?

The answer will determine whether you need to try other options. Shalom!

because they have lenient after school immigration policies as i dnt knw much abt others.

wich program are u going for and school?

Bro, like MichV and Folaroyal have mentioned, The relationship between these courses isn't sufficiently convincing. A career or course change isn't really a bad thing but the big gun there will be WHY? questions will bother around:
1. Will this career path be of significant advancement to applicant's education and career?
2. Does applicant have sufficient work experience to warrant a career change since previous education isn't a direct academic relationship to intended or even closely related.
3. Many applicant't going for same program with direct correlation to previous education and work experience. what guarantees applicant will do well in the intended program since there are no previous activities(education/experience) in this path?

these are just few areas i probably think will raise a red flag with "Purpose of visit". It is not enough to write a fantastic SOP without evidences, These folks would have even seen and read write ups from English scholars with good command of the language but truth is, You case, documents and circumstance should out way the SOP and present your application convincingly.. SOP should be the icing on your app and not using it explain most things. They are trained to get what the want already. Personally, i believe SOP should be more like presenting the real personality behind the fantastic application package in writing.

Notwithstanding, I trust you will make appropriate additions to you reapplications and nothing will stop your study permit approval.

In all though,Do all you need to do and still leave a space for God to do his! Cos sometime, even the best of applications don't sell through.
All the best bro.

CannyZionist:
As others have said, you have two major issues to deal with.
First, your purpose of visit, which is tied to program mismatch ie no correlation between Econs and HRH. You can tackle this by choosing a course in line with Econs (start checking out for schools that offer courses related to your Econs and if possible go for masters).
Second, travel history is tied to your inability to prove enough finances to take care of your program, travel fare to Canada and back. In this case, you have to prove that you have enough finances for at least one year course fee and living expenses. Your immediate sponsor's FD account being in their son and daughter's name is a red flag to the VO. You don't expect FD account in son's name to be used for study expenses. You can as well look for another sponsor with good SOA. They can also transfer reasonable cash into your account to further show their commitment backing everything with affidavit and good letters of sponsorship.

It would be nice to know what you do currently, whether you are a serving corp member or out of youth service.

Osemigho:
What's your CGPA?

Can you really afford the Canada fees and upkeep? I can't myself that's why I am applying to programs that can give full ride. I had to drop school that provide funding of cad22k but fees alone is around 26. Can't afford the balance and upkeep. In this journey, you have to be truthful to yourself.

If your last two years CGPA is more than 80% try full ride MA in economics.

If you can truly afford the fees and upkeep, change program to economics, get a strong account sponsor and reapply. I can't try this cos although I may get Visa, I can't come and be struggling with jogging school, work and fees headache.

You have to be truthful to yourself first on what you really can afford. Then reask your question on your options.

Some with lower undergraduate GPA may need to do masters in Nigeria and ACE it, before trying PhD in Canada, if you have Canadian dream. I don't think you need to change or drop your dream if you can truly afford to pay for it.

michV:
my first advise is change program. countless refusals have been recorded here on this HRM,but what is your undergraduate program/work experience to see if HRM has any relationship to it?
