A lot of us kinda outgrow the thread (I will too soon), but I just feel we all should create time to help one another scale what is in my opinion the most difficult hurdle of this process - the VISA hurdle.

I attended orientation today and the number of asians that are resuming school were way more than half (they move together in groups and speak their language at will). Anyways, bottom line is that we Nigerians can and should put conscious effort into helping one another to get TRVs.

A little bit about life in Canada may help some of us on the thread make smart decisions about pursuing this whole thing. Because some are actually better of elsewhere, as not everyone's success is tied to Canada.

I very importantly have to say a very big thank you to a member of this forum, cocosmite. I reached out to him before I left Nigeria and he has been of tremendous help to me. Brother actually cooked and brought home cooked meal for me at the airport! Allowed me stay in his apartment for three days, and helped me settle in! Some angels live among us people. They breathe air like you and I (some even like girls with big bum-bum ) but they are nothing short of angels. I am really grateful.

So I guess we all catch the message, let's help and continue to help one another, keep the cycle going and all.

I school at MUN, if you have questions about the school please feel free to ask here and I will answer to the best of my knowledge.[/quote]Congratulations and I hope winter isn't too harsh.
I have a few questions about MUN...

I applied for a PhD in philosophy for winter 2019 but got a reject. I was communicating with a potential supervisor who seemed impressed by my work and was on the admissions committee. After the rejection, I reached out to him and he stated that I had a good application but there were better applications....

I intended to apply for a Master's instead but I've been a little discouraged. I have applied to other schools though...

I already have a Master's in philosophy with a CGPA of 4.3 and BA in philosophy with a CGPA of 4.1.

Do you think I should give it a shot?

I will appreciate it if you can shed light on what makes a good application for MUN.

God's blessings.
