Hello everyone,
Very helpful information so far.
Please I am looking for suggestions on what course I can go for, my undergrad was in political science. I graduated with a 2.2 and someone told me I will not qualify for a masters unless a diploma with a college.
Any advice or directions please...... if you know of any school that will take 2.2 for masters please suggest to me.

Dear gurus in the house,

Please I have a sister-friend who graduated with 2:2 in law in 2005/2006 but she's been working with Lagos State Internal Revenue since 2009 . She's currently an Account Officer there. Please what PG course can she go for?

Some of her job duties are listed below:
- Auditing of Companies Documents to enure they comply with the tax laws.
- Enlightenment and Educating Tax Payers on Tax Matters.
- Rendering Advice to Tax Payers on how to go about payment of their taxes

Thank you. I await your response.

Ok,


I actually don't know of any PG course you can go for as a receptionist.

Am thinking a PG.Cert in H.R.M might go with your Job, but not sure of this**

Another option is a sociology related PG. program

Await a response from the house for suggestions

quote author=Lekiboboe post=102948091]
Graduating in 2015 shows you have a 6-years Educational Gap. It's advisable you go for a Program that relates to your Work experience, unfortunately, I don't know a PG. Cert program program you can go for as a Former Teacher, but I feel you can consider going for Program that is related to the Job Position you are presently holding at the hotel and your Job Duties.

That being said,

What is name of your Job/Job position in that hotel?

What are your Job Duties?

I just got refused guys, and I’m proud to put it out here so others can learn
I submitted through an agent but it was later I found out about nairaland and I knew I was suppose to do it on my own. I was rejected based on just purpose of visit as i knew my chances were low when I came to nairaland to find out that going for a 2nd degree and getting a decision has a very slim chance. I’m I happy I learnt that too.
I submitted the account of my uncle as we bear the same surname and it had an inflow and outflow of almost 300m in 4 months alone and a sitting balance of 20m. Most of you are also aware that I just lost my dad and my uncle has been stepping up for me for a lot of things
My uncle also owns the company where I work part time and I also submitted the cac, employment letters and bank statement of the company of almost 250m in inflows and outflow.
I can tell that the course was the major problem, as I wrote my SOP myself with the agent making one or two corrections

Please guys, I had a 2:1 in accounting with a CGPA of 3.63 in 2018. Which university can the gurus recommend to go for masters. And which course will best fit my bsc. I will try and re apply again but I need the assistance of
Lekkiboboe
Frank Robbn
Just mellow and all the amiable members

Do I need IELTS for masters or gre. Or just my bsc and English proficiency letter is enough??

How do I get the complete gcms note to check all the information filled by my agent and how do I order for it. Thank you guys
You guys are wonderful and to those waiting for PPR. May Almighty God grant it to you

Hello good evening.
I'd like to make inquiries about masters programme. Is it possible to get admission into a Canadian school for masters with a 2.2 result?

Teemenzo:
I have been searching for a PGD for my course Architecture and found none. I was even thinking that i should try environmental studies. But couldn't find anyone. Any help guys?

Frankrobbn1:
A postdoc (or "post-doc," "postdoctoral," or "postdoctoral research) fellowship is a training-focused position available to people who have earned a doctorate. Postdoc positions usually act as a stepping-stone between the student experience and the full-time professional experience. Most positions are two to three years and some can be extended. In a nutshell "it is a training and the fellow will be paid during the entire duration of the program"


It will end in praise

Thane:
Guys please who has idea of any school that would accept 2.2 bsc for a Public Health masters degree? I just finished Nysc

Hello @Lekiboboe from my understanding, normal Study Permit does not come with a work permit but rather an “authorization to work.”

That’s why it is written something like “permitted to work for 20/hrs per week during study session...” So, it’s not a work permit.

However, if your program comes with a CO-OP component, you’ll be issued with a separate Open Work Permit, in addition to the usual 20/hrs weekly authorization to work.

So yes, I’ll be getting both.

And the good thing about the co-op course is that the second semester when my co-op is expected to start, I’ll be working full 40hrs during school session (this is basically because the co-op program is essential to my studies). in addition to utilizing the 20/hr weekly authorization to work.

tobe1997:
Im applying for Cambrian,Conestoga and Algonquin colleges just in case any one gives me,but I'm really dunno if the admission application can be processed using my unofficial student transcript.cos I'd not,then I fit faint cos the stress I passed through for WES never comot from my body

Pinkey2021:
Amen. That’s the spirit. My small advice to everyone still awaiting PPR and hasn’t done Medicals or ordered for their GCMS notes is to do so immediately.

My GCMS note was practically empty save for an update that was done on the 16th of June!

Let me just say that requesting for my notes prompted them to look into my file.

Also, I sent emails and webform to Nairobi and Lagos offices twice. I used @Awys format of pleading with them. The first one I wrote I was demanding that they expedite it because it has exceeded current processing time. They ignored me without a response

But they responded to the second one of me pleading with them, and told me I’ll be updated soon.

My primary office was Nairobi while the secondary was London. Those London people did nothing until my notes were requested and they started forwarding documents to Nairobi. Kai!

The same day my GCMS notes arrived my eligibility review started.

And it took them less than 48hrs to review and issue PPR!!!

Also, my program comes with CO-OP, so I’ll be getting an SW-1 study permit (that is both a Study Permit and an Open Work Permit) rather than the normal S-1 permit. I peeped from my notes that my work permit has already been issued and that gave me a glimmer of hope, cos I didn’t see anything like that in my last year’s refusal notes.

So, please everyone, let’s be proactive about our applications, rather than wait for IRCC, do an upfront medicals and order for your GCMS notes(especially if your times has exceeded normal processing times. It’ll go a long way.

Shalom!

This was a 2nd Application. First application I did not include any of the above documents. I was a complete novice. (Lol). I didn’t even include my Tuition receipt or CAC or property docs, nothing at all, just my LOA, qualifications and passport that’s all.

But thank God for Nairaland where I learned everything I needed to know for a successful application (especially, as a self-sponsored applicant).

Also, since I didn’t include vital docs in my last application, I decided to overload them with documents this time around

I keyed in to @justexcellent testimony of his approval and wrote out the same prayer points he used while I fasted earlier this year.

God bless you all richly and establish us in our quests for destiny fulfillment. A big thank you goes out to @frankrobbn, @justmellow, @justexcellent (for that wonderful and inspiring testimony), @lekiboboe for your tireless constant help here, and of course to everyone new and old who has contributed to the success of this thread thereby helping fulfill destinies. God bless and reward you all abundantly in Jesus Mighty name.

End Note: my love letter arrived while I was praying this morning by 4am. Didn’t realize it until I checked by 12noon thereabout.

Didn’t know they send PPRs on Saturdays!!!

INDEED WHAT GOD CANNOT DO DOES NOT EXIST.

OCT202020:
To the best of my knowledge, there's no difference between LOE and SOP, both servers the same purpose, which is a detailed and well crafted explanation of your application, since there's no in-person interview. Just my thought.

IntimidationJay:
Please what’s the link for IOM medicals appointment booking

SweetJJ:

Hazardd:

1Girllykdat:
Hello everyone. Please I'm in a fix & I need your advice .

Prior to my application for a research-based msc programme in Canada, I reached out to a prof who confirmed she'd be taking in 2 graduate students and also confirmed that our research interests aligned but wouldn't take anybody yet till the academic committee and potential supervisors reviewed all applications.

4 months after applying (may 2021), I heard nothing from the school. So, I mailed the graduate co-ordinator inquiring about the outcome of my application and the professor replied instead.

The prof told me she was finalizing her research group for fall and asked if I'd be able to talk over zoom. We had the meeting and we talked about my research proposal and said she'd be taking me in and giving me the emails of her other students and would speak to the graduate co-ordinator about funding as I am an international student.


With her word, I assumed I was in only for me to again mail the graduate co-ordinator in June (as time for visa application was going) and then be told the prof isn't taking in students again.

I was shocked and asked if there was a mix-up. I mailed the supervisor and she said she was sorry and that I misunderstood her. That she was torn as I am an excellent fit for her lab but that she is already taking in 2 phd students and now at her maximum capacity.

I mailed the graduate co-ordinator and asked if it was possible to switch to course work instead. She said that though my application had already been denied (cos of the prof), I would be considered.

But now the thing is next week is July and I don't even know when I would hear from the school. Plus neither I nor my close relatives have my school fees. I thought I would get in through research which is why I applied for only research programmes.

I met the minimum requirement of 75% btw . Had 82% in undergrad.

Does anybody have an idea how I can "appeal" to the professor or go about the situation?
