wow. their tuition deposit is high. what I paid for SAIT was $3500.

Quite much, I’ve always thought the tuition deposit ($2000) is a fixed amount for most schools

Mavor:
it is always best for your bank funds and assets to show upfront to the Canadian embassy how you will fund your tuition and living expenses over 2 years. does your school program include co-op (work placement)? if not, its unlikely they may give your a study permit with work permission. then again, i may be wrong. dont rely on working to fund your fees and stay.

Okay thanks, the course does not offer Co-op(work placement) but it is PGWP Eligible

Hello House….

Is there anyone in SENECA college…
I applied and I have been given admission.

My program is going to run for two years which I will be responsible of paying 3 semester myself.

Please what’s the probability of getting a job and being able to save up to $20,000 CAD within a year?

Lastly, my tuition deposit must be received by August 1st.
If I make the payment now for the tuition deposit, whats the chances of my Visa application, and will I be given student permit?
I’m thinking of deferring the admission till January, but if I should do that and make the tuition deposit, will the tuition deposit be intact or there will be deduction from the tuition deposit.
Thanks

AbelAbdul:
During my time of application, my school said if my study permit is refused they will refund my tuition deposit. The only money the won't refund was the 125CAD application fee.

For POF you must show ATLEAST your one year tuition fee. If the program is more than 1yr, show how you intend to pay for the following years without having to work in Canada.
You must show you have at least $22,895CAD to cover your living expenses for one year. If your program is more than one year you demonstrate how you tend to survive for the coming years without having to work in Canada.

In my own case I used OANDA Currency Converter and my study permit was approved. It was not specified which converter to be used.

My program is two years. I showed POF for the two years tuition fees and living expenses for the two years. So there wasn't any need for me to convince them on how I intend to pay for the rest of the year. Then, after paying for the tuition deposit, I paid for one year tuition. I could have just applied for study permit with just the tuition deposit but ChatGPT advised I pay one year tuition and that was what I did.

The receipts for the tuition deposit and one year tuition fee I attached them to my POF.
