I will advise you do the bolded but if you have money for the upfront medicals .. Do it to save th stress of asking

Alright , Thanks

holluville:
Congrats bro....

Tnx Bros

Anon123:
Wait, no medicals or invite and you still got AIP Letter
.. IRCC is becoming confusing

I didn't do Upfront Medicals as well, nor got a medical request, and I got AIP, in which I was told that my application has advanced to the next stage of processing.

Though Reviewing of Eligibility & Background Check is still on.

@Anon123, what does this signify

- should I await a Medical Request?
- Do an Upfront Medical?
- or I should await further instructions from IRCC?

Thanks

Cambrian college requires English test, I need one that doesnt require English test and much protocol.
Thank you

For NIGERIANS, they don't,

Even if they state ENGLISH Test Requirement for their Programs, U are exempted

U would have noticed the English Test Requirement in all schools & programs in CANADA for international students,
but they have Countries that are exempted from English Test (countries whose official Language is English) and NIGERIA is one of them

Graceee:
Hello house
Please is there any canadian college that accepts Bank wire transfer (FORM A) for tuition payment.
I kept seeing FLY wire and credit card and there charges are high

Cambrian College, Sudbury, Ontario accepts FORM A for Tuition Payment

engrlege:
Thanks for your Swift response and encouragement. God bless you.

Have checked the two schools recommended but non of it offers Project Management or related course.

I will appreciate if anyone can as well recommend another schools with low tuition fee.

U might likely not see a low tuition fee school like that for PGD or PGC in Project Management

Visit the link below & explore the schools offering PGC/PGD in Project Management, visit their websites ,check for their tuition fees for international student so as to make a comparison and u might be lucky to get one or two schools available for ur proposed budget

Hi, my eye caught this. I'm about trying to do duolingo test to get an admission. Are you saying we need none of that or ielts?

For admission purpose,
U don't need IELTS ..

But as regards the Duolingo , its a new English Test Program, so u will need to enquire from the skool if u need to do it or not.(But I doubt if u gonna need it)

So a way U can verify is to:
mail the international department of ur skool, and enquire from them that u intend to apply for so so course in their skool, that do u need to do Duolingo Test,
cos u came from an English Speaking country (Nigeria) the medium of instruction of ur 4-5 years in ur fmr. degree and ur High school days is English, and your Transcript is all written in English Language

Thanks bro for your simple breakdown I have already even paid for IELTS since March but due to this covid-19 ish I haven't been able to write the exam guess I would proceed with the application to different schools. In other words the IELTS is wasted be that cause it's only valid for 2 years and man wan do PR after school. Besides bro I studied Agricultural extension & management HND which means I'm going for PGD or PGC I've been checking cheap colleges for this course but couldn't find one. Please anyone with vast experience which course and cheap college would suit me to apply for that would match my undergraduate course and I've been working in the same field for 10 years now. I want to apply for may intake 2021 that's spring. I need help y'all. God bless

Helo pls what is the purpose of doing ielts . Can I use to seek admission in Canada

Hello Chief,
U seem a bit confused about this IELTS of a thing, cos u have asked this question about IELTS more than twice

Note this:
If u av done IELTS before and u av the required score (bands) the school require it, u can use it to apply for admission.

And IELTS result is only valid for 2-years.


But if admission is the reason u want to do it, don't bother urself,
U don't need IELTS for admission purpose cos u come from an English Speaking Country (Nigeria),
so even if you see it in an admission requirement of a sch. or program, u are EXEMPTED.

IELTS requirement for admission purpose are meant for countries whose official language is not English
E.g India, China, Philippines. Vietnam etc.

Its only if u are interested in applying for Permanent Residency (PR) after ur studies that it's highly required of u to do IELTS

Dos2020:
@ Lekibobe,

Please Lambton website show Ielts is required for international student. Can it be waved for Nigeria’s? Any one applied to Lambton past or present?

Check LAMBTON College as well for their PGD/PGC Business program

U don't need IELTS, cos u come from an English Speaking Country (Nigeria), so even if you see it in an admission requirement, u are EXEMPTED.

IELTS as a requirement for admission purpose are meant for countries whose official language is not English
E.g India, China, Philippines. Vietnam etc

But along the line they are reviewing ur application if the school insist that u should get a PROOF OF ENGLISH PROFICIENCY ,
U will need to find a way to request for or get a LETTER OF CONFIRMATION OF PROFICIENCY IN ENGLISH LANGUAGE (more else like an IELTS waiver) from the school u graduated from (the REGISTRAR or anyone in Charge)

The registrar will state in the letter that " Nigeria is an English Speaking country and that the medium of instruction thru out ur study in that school was English Language etc. "

@Frankrobbn1 Please my sitution is a bit complicated. I applied using an agent, before getting to know about this thread on Nairaland. This was in June. I told the agent to give me a password so I can check the cic site and get details on my application but he said doing that means he has given me access to all his clients information. So right now until he tells me there is an update I don't even know how far my application has gone. Kindly advice me what to do please. I do get email notification but I really want to have access to my details on the site and even see the documents he submitted. Since then, he only sent the biometrics request form and he said no update yet

This agents ehn,

The world is going DIY (do-it-yourself) in many things lately, most especially for immigration . Thanks to platforms like Canada Student Visa Thread (Nairaland) and YouTube Channels.

Don't be surprised some agents do come to this forum for knowledge from the scratch etc.

Just have faith & be hopeful it ends in praise with your application

All da best!!!!!!

Sent Sir!!

greatalash:
Thanks sir/ma I really appreciate, pls how can I know school that there postgraduate diploma/C form r out ?
And I want to change my course from Chemistry, cos I study chemistry @undergraduate to business adminstration is that possible?

U are welcome

Most Schools are opened for Admission,
Cos in Canada, they av 3-intakes,
Fall (September), Winter (January) & Spring (May) intake,
so a school with a Winter (January) 2021 admission intake is the one you should look out for.

For u , YES u can apply for it, cos of ur BUSINESS Work Experience (Business man), and u having ur own business , but I don't think there is a PGD/PGC for Bus. Administration in Canada. (I stand to be corrected)

Why not go for PGD/PGC in International Business Management(IBM) or PGD/PGC in Global Business Management (GBM)

Visit the link below for schools offering PGC in IBM
https://www.ontariocolleges.ca/en/programs/search?q=International%20Business%20Management&page=0&by%5BProgramCredentialEnglish%5D%5B0%5D=Graduate%20Certificate


Visit the link below for schools offering PGC in GBM
https://www.ontariocolleges.ca/en/programs/search?q=Global%20Business%20Management&page=0&by%5BProgramCredentialEnglish%5D%5B0%5D=Graduate%20Certificate

Check LAMBTON College as well for their PGD/PGC Business program

and also,

its advisable for u to write a Cover letter (addressed to that department in the sch.) as part of the supporting documents for ur admission application, in which u will talk about why u are going for IBM/GBM instead of a Chemistry related program,
this is where u will now explain urself that "u have a business u do with so so years of experience, and u would need more knowledge for your business to get a global recognition, blah blah and be able to do business beyond borders",and also in the cover letter mention like 3-4 courses/subjects u will be doing in that program.
also
u need an Updated Resume or CV in which your Business name , type of business , when u started etc. should be there

In Summary, know that, ur transcript says more about CHEMISTRY,
so its your cover letter and ur Updated Resume/CV the admission committee of the college will likely dwell more on in order to make a decision if u will be given the admission or not.

All da best!!!

You are welcome Honorable

Wow.. And How possible do you think it'll be for someone looking for sponsorship for a thesis based admission??

Yes it is possible to get sponsorship (Full or Partial Funding) for a thesis-based admission

But it can be very competitive,
There are lots of Students worldwide with very high grades, publications/journals etc.

So in order to stand out,
a well-crafted & packaged thesis-based application is the way forward

Also anyone looking for thesis-based should be looking at the September 2021 intake, cos M.SC/PH.D admission can take up to 2-5 months.

What an applicant ought to be doing now is to be sending contextualized email to potential supervisors (as much as u possible) of different schools.

Be prepared to hear both Positive & Negative response from the supervisors, but don't give up, cos with a good application & God by ur side, u will surely get at least 1 to 2 supervisor who will accept u


Send me a PM!

Hello guys,

My cousin just got accepted to study in Canada. She's 18 and going for her first degree.
I need list of documents expected from her as part of the visa application process.
I'd genuinely appreciate it if anyone can help me with a comprehensive list.
(Note: I am familiar with Canada study permit application, but I do believe my knowledge on steps to take is not enough).

Note: Some of this documents might not apply to her cos she might likely not av Work Experience etc.

Most of the requirements needed for her Application will be her:
-Academic Credentials (WAEC/NECO Result, Testimonial, Awards/Accolades in school etc.)

- Her Sponsors documents,
Cos her Sponsor' will be solely responsible for her tuition and upkeep throughout the 4 years duration of her study & stay in Canada

- Family/Home ties as well

Am a successful business Man, with registered CAC..
Any school available and hope 3rd class can apply to study postgraduate diploma in Canada?

Since u are gonna be sponsoring urself
Ur Statement of Account must show that u av ur tuition fee and a Compulsory 1-year living expenses of $10,000CAD (around 2.9 million to 3 million Naira) in your account

And a bank statement of 4-6 months is required to be shown when applying for a Study Visa . Do make sure u avoid any lump sum of money in ur account to avoid any suspicion by a Visa Officer

Also u have to show good home ties to ur country e.g Family assets (Landed Properties) , ur Family (Dad and Mum, sister , brother Etc.)

As regards admission for PGD/PGC to Canada,
Yes u can apply for a PGD or PGC -Post Graduate Certificate with ur 3rd class

For possible program & school suggestions,

Do mention:
- the program u want to study in Canada,
-the course u studied in Nigeria,
- your work experience (since u are business man, what type of biz do u do?)


Cos the PGD/PGC Program u should do must either align/correlate with the course u did in the university or your work experience for CAREER PROGRESSION purpose

Can anyone pls help!!! I have applied for a diploma in Computer Systems and Networking in College of North Atlantic nd i was asked to send my transcript, i got confused nd felt i had to go to my secondary and Uni to get it. I sent the school a reply mail saying I can’t access my Transcript.

On this thread i found out my WAEC or NECO result is my transcript� i just got so confused on what to do, should i just scan the transcript to the school even i have told them I couldn’t access it?

My other question is , is it compulsory i fill out that i have a BSc or should i just stick with my O’level result. I have really not worked with my BSc cert. I have a registered catering outfit. You know how Nigeria can be with studying one thing nd getting a paying job at that same course of study. I just ventured into the catering Business.

Hello ,

If u have a B.SC, why going for an Ordinary DIPLOMA ? Fine u might get the Admission,

But

That shows no career progression, cos a VISA OFFICER will see it as a Vague purpose of Study and that could raise a RED FLAG for ur STUDY PERMIT Application and even if u decide not to mention ur B.SC degree, the Visa Officer will question on what u av bin doing in the 4-5 years degree u decided not to mention, cos ur age will tell


Based on ur profile,
ur best shot is to apply for a Masters program related to ur B.SC degree if u have a 2nd Class Upper

If its a 2.2/3rd Class go for a PGD/PGC in a related field, and u can also do a PGD/PGC in a Catering-Culinary Related field e.g Food Tourism etc. (Based on ur Catering Biz Outfit)

All da best!!!
