Please I will appreciate the stuff too. One love

I need those materials too

@Femi321, I want to appreciate you sooooooooo much. Indeed, God answers prayers. All the info I needed was painstakingly supplied by YOU. I will go through all you have said and hopefully we shall see one day. Thanks for your kind ways. My journey to academic excellence starts right now. Cheers and ward regards.

You couldn't? All schools will have information about that on there grad school website or the department website. It also your responsibility to start mailing the Graduate coordinator of each school and specifically asking about the various opportunities for funding be it TA or RA or GA. You really need to be proactive about it, send emails when things are not clear. The grad coordinator is the best person to develop a rapport with. That was part of what got me funding, i was always in his mail asking one question or the other (Not stupid questions though). For GRE, i don't know where you can register for GRE lecture in Akure, you can try Alagbaka (I spent most of my childhood there), If you ask me, you don't need any lecture to ace GRE,all you need is to dedicate time and study hard then register online at www.ets.org. Going for lecture for TOEFL is even more shameful because TOEFL is just ordinarry English, just like WAEC. All you need to really study hard for is the speaking session and Writing. Check the following link for GRE materials and TOEFL speaking video. If you have any question, come back here and ask.

In the link above, you will find more than enough materials there but it will be waste of time if you use all, head to this gre thread https://www.nairaland.com/1832477/how-achieve-high-scores-gre/44#39955826 and read the thread to know how best to use the materials. If you cant read that thread, then i am sorry..you need to re-evaluate your decision for graduates study.

For TOEFL, all you need are the speaking noteful videos, the ets toefl guide is enough to ace the exam for other sections. Just download the Toefl ETS Guide from there website and the simulation test.

I dont know why i am trying to explain in details to you, ideally you are supposed to read this thread but then, guess i am in a good mood today or God is really on your side. Cheers

dadaojames:

anticipate positive TRV approval at the end.the mail for additional document is a success in addition to the medical mail.original statement of result can surface which is duly signed by the registrar.approaching toward approval, CIC will request a new offer letter so start now to bother your school.

When i see people say, suggest schools, i assume you are just looking for an escape route and not really passionate about getting that masters. The school that works for A might not work for B because we all have different dreams and aspirations. What if someone gives you a school you cant afford or a school that cant give you funding?So get to work and search for schools that meet your dreams et al. To save you some stress start from this website http://graddecision.org/ to know the application process, So step 1) Decide on the course you want to study 2) Search for schools using a) www.google.com b)www.gradschools.com c)www.msinus.com d) www.usnews.com e) www.4icu.org . 3) check up the website of the schools you find to see the requirements. most schools will require GRE and some will require both gre and toefl, its good to do all this exam to at least have a chance at funding. 4) register for standardize exam and take it 5) Send your application and back it up with prayers. While checking schools, shortlist them according to cost of living in that city, opportunity for Funding,your research interest etc. funding depends on your GPA,LORS, SOP,GRE/TOEFL SCORE.. Cheers

wow great explanation. Sir, I tried checking schools with funding I couldnt. Maybe I dont know how to use google well. I will be glad if you can put me through. Either US or Canada. As for GRE and TOEFL, please where can I enroll in Akure? Many thanks.

key areas to always work on during TRV application which is often visa refusals out of ignorance...

Purpose of visit; Make sure your intending program in canada relates with either your work experience/position or your UG degree. always keep your SOP simple and straight to the points and avoid ambiguous statements that causes stress and loss of interest to the reader,VO.
what you tend to achieve with your intending program,the relationship to your career and future goals and why canada for such study destination is what majorly your SOP should be revolving on and should have weighted and convincing points in this areas. Avoid story telling sentences and make your statements professional with compound sentences.For those going for ordinary diploma program after having B.sc,approval chances are always slim not that VOs don't approve such but your case must be strong and convincing enough.
choose programs that are closely related not that you FEEL that they are related.if you are always in doubt for such,search wide on Google to truly know if such programs have close relationship with you UG course modules and contents.

Personal assets and financial status; unexplained or empty gaps come to this category,for those still undergoing NYSC or going for undergraduate program in canada,this area hardly apply to you guys,those undergoing NYSC should just add their NYSC supporting docs to cover present gaps. Specifically to working class,all relevant employment documents and/or activities from the date you finished NYSC till the date of your application should come in place,in addition if you have worked for long and have come of age,you are mandated to add your PERSONAL BANK STATEMENT of ACC.it is a MUST even if you are being sponsored and a reasonable amount of money should be in such account of 1 million and above just to be on the safer side.Similarly some have activities which is deemed profitable to their career,during visa application,such can come in place to explain present gaps in your application with the relevant supporting document in place too for the VO to make reference and in this type of situation I don't feel the personal SOA of the individual can come in place expect if the activity pays(income).
For those who have come of age and still single without family and kids to serve as HOME TIES, a land Document or meaningful stocks and bonds/properties should come in place and even if you don't have any,go get one months before applying for TRV.If you are married with kids they are already strong home ties to your application. Lands,stocks and bonds is an addition which also signals to the consular(S) that your have strong economic ties to your home countryif you have such too.HOME TIES/personal assets varies and applies to individuals depending on the nature/profile of the individual during visa application.

funds family,relatives are always convincing sponsors to the consulars, possible proof of relationships to such sponsors are, Birth certificates, marriage certificates then affidavit of sponsorships and DETAILED sponsorship letter, sponsor's SOA and business/work related document as proof of income follow up.self-sponsorship is also applicable but when acting as self-sponsored it requires you will have your funds for the entire duration of your program available as proof..if you are using extended families are sponsors,try as much to make your Proof of relationship documents clear and detailed. Always fill your FUNDS AVAILABLE Section of IMM1294E or study permit well of at least 1yr funds as specified by the CIC even if the program is a 2yrs or 4yrs program.The statement of account flow would be able to speak for subsequent years for the VO to believe that your sponsor can oblige to such responsibilty(ies). Avoid money Lodgement in an empty account left with no transaction for past months or prior to visa application in such empty acct except cases whereby such money was transferred or paid in with a clarification letter for it's purpose to your visa application.if your sponsor is a business person as you may have it,if it involves you building up the acct for visa purpose,make sure it has business transaction details while owing up to such responsibilty.
in addition,fill your CIC forms well..
