Greetings Everyone.

Please, I would like to know if Fanshawe College requires IELTS for Post-graduate courses?

Thank you.

olufunbi:
School fees.

olufunbi:
I dont think it is possible for you to apply for form A without a valid student visa.It might just be in the system and it wont be approved.
I guess it is because your visa was not attached as at when you applied
You can reconfirm though.

WHAT I DID DIFFERENTLY

1, I paid my first-semester tuition in my first application. So, for my second application, I paid the second-semester tuition too

2, My spouse deposited 4M Naira (bulk sum) into my account for my one-year upkeep.

3, I moved the money from my mutual benefit money market account in Stanbic IBTC to a regular account in GTB. I explained why I moved it. The money was there in the first application, but I felt the VO was of the opinion that it would not be easily accessible. I showed a trail of how I moved it with bank alerts and stated that the account has been in operation for years and all the money was ours, with no bulk payment from outside sources.

HEADYWORLD:
Please I need help with property valuation and how much it cost.

AbionaT:
PLEASE I NEED HELP


I am waiting for PPR, but my school has WITHDRAWN my admission. They sent a message to me today.

I want to apply to another school for January 2023 and send updated LOA to IRCC before a decision on my application

I am trying to apply to FANSHAWE COLLEGE
But they said all Applicant from Nigeria must apply through their agent. I am stuck at this juncture.

Please my people help me out
Anyone that knows how to apply should please help me in the name of God.

TiggyAce:
Pls gurus in the house.I do not understand this letter emailed to me from the school I applied and does it mean I won’t be given admission after paying 144k application fee

Kamsi99:
Please guys how long does it normally take to get biometrics mail after submission?
Asking to know if I can stay back in lag and wait for my biometrics
Thanks

HouseRavenclaw:
PPR alert!! I still cannot believe this has happened. It's been so long since I applied that it's felt like a daily delusion to keep up with this application. My case was ridiculously complex and I'm not even sure where to begin from. This is going to be long so prepare for a short tale.

In 2019, I got adopted by my father (who lives in Canada) and neither of us had any idea of how to work an application but we assumed it couldn't be that difficult if there were available funds. He sent me an invitation letter, his financial documents and a prepared itinerary of places we'd visit in order to give the application some substance.

Within a month, it was denied and that was devastating for both of us because we'd thought it was a straightforward process. In 2020, I hired an agency that had a visa approval rate of over 90% and they took a very pricey fee for the help.

One thing I will say about agents is that they can make or break your application. It is true that the average one in Nigeria is a con person but there are also very genuine agents and you just have to know where to find them. Even on Nairaland here, many end up hiring gurus to do the work of an agent so unless you're completely qualified to do the work and prepared to be as thorough as possible, please hire competent help.

They told me outright that only a study permit would give me a chance and my biological mom would have to be my main sponsor. They also told me I'd have to apply to a major university as it would ensure a tuition fee that would be worth showing IRCC I was serious about studying there. After supplying them my information, they applied to University of Concordia, Ontario and Ottawa. I got into all three within the month to study English Language.

I was going to pick the University of Concordia because it's in the same state as my adoptive father and I wouldn't have to pay for an apartment but they gave me a conditional acceptance dependent on a timely submission of an IELTS result. I found that silly and racist because my English results in WAEC and my high school transcripts were stellar and everyone knows Nigerians speak English as their main language. I probably speak English at a higher reading level than their Teaching Assistants so I responded declining their offer and applying with the University of Ottawa.

The agency wrote my letter of explanation, addressing my former refusal in a way that I probably couldn't have done and they established strong home ties.

On the 23rd of August 2021, I applied. I wouldn't hear anything till October 15th when my medical request form came in. I got that done at IOM on the 20th of the same month and when they discovered I'd had tuberculosis at 16, they asked me to do a sputum test that week to save time because IRCC would definitely want additional medical attention.

On the 26th, 27th and 28th, I got my sputum tests done. I wouldn't receive any feedback till December when I was told I passed. On January 20th, I got the final xray done and my results were sent to IRCC. I remember thinking the worst of it was over when I received yet another email to go for a pulmonary testing at a recommended tuberculosis specialist and I had breathing exercises done. She also filed a report about her findings and cleared me.

On February the 17th, my medicals changed to "under review" and I hoped they would be passed before the month's end. When February was over and I didn't hear anything, I joined Nairaland to ask questions about what I could do. I got advised to send emails and web forms so I did those but I kept getting automated responses about "being in queue for processing" or being "under review".

In April, I contacted the MP office of Montréal and they gave me information saying my application was under eligibility review. That month, I ordered my GCMS notes and saw that it was not even true. My eligibility and criminality had been passed since the same day my medical request was sent in October 2021. My medicals had been stalled in the Central Admissibility Unit for months.

On June 1st, I got a Procedural Fairness Letter for medical inadmissibility. I take supplements to ensure my tuberculosis remains latent and apparently they cost more than was allocated for international students yearly. I was asked to prepare a mitigation plan to show how I'd cover the amount which exceeded the threshold.

Since I'd paid a tuition fee of $10,000 for my Fall semester, I had Healthcare coverage. I confirmed that it was active with the university pharmacy and they redirected me to my insurance provider which confirmed that not only was it active, they had my medication and covered it. I took a letter from them and the campus pharmacy and I submitted the health care plan on July 18th.

On July 26th, I passed my medicals. Once that happened, a part of me began to feel more assured but more nervous than ever. I started sending frenzies of emails and web forms requesting a final decision as my application was set to clock one year.

This morning I was about to have breakfast when I got the "donotreply" email. While trembling, I checked and there lay my BVL, Medical surveillance form and Original Passport Request. This has been the most difficult thing I've ever done and I am grateful for everyone who contributed to making this a reality, most especially my dad.

Enddystar:
Plenty questions in 1. Please pardon me.

Firstly, can I go for police clearance and medicals before submitting my application?

Secondly, can husband and wife do Police clearance/medicals upfront even if only one of them is applying now? Since the secondary applicant will still need them to apply later

Thirdly, how much is police clearance currently? I will also appreciate a contact at the office.

Thank you

Ocool:
Honestly, the similitude of the way you construct your sentence with that of the person you seem to be advocating for is making me to suspect that it is the one person that is behind this particular account and her own.

EagleEye4040:
She just denied it. Can you ask your tech team to check the changes she made to her profile and signature in last 36hrs? Dis woman na confirm liar. @Justwise, I don't want to say anything about this case again. But @Nezzel is dangerous. E Took her so long to even reply you. Though she was online. Probably weighing her options

Like I said. Just saving others asses. And I don do that for my own little capacity

Nothing from me about her again. I wan rest abeg

EagleEye4040:
@Nezzel. This is your answer. I still Maintain that you are a scammer.

This is the last time I will reply your mention. I don tire sef

Nairaland no dey pay me to catch scammers. What's my own sef. Lol
