hayqinsbFX: Think not only for admission...think also for visa... The admission can come easier....but don't be caught in no man's land when it comes to visa... Think and make the best choice for your vsa application. He works in the Financial Services Industry so convincing the Vo about change of course MIGHT not be so difficult. Wht do u think? |

Kirri: Congrats misIvy
Ancestors what have I done wrong why direct me to google(been there done that) There must be someone here that has gone thru this process I DON'T WANT TO WRITE GMAT/GRE I need a school that offers masters in supply chain/Procurement/Logistics without the above exam as requirement
How can one handle tuition as in financial aid/loan or grants anything
Kindly advice ancestor Darefestus,haqyinsfbx(how's it spelt again?) solomonwise, is JesusDway here, and everyother person I failed to mention 
Awaiting your response Why don't you want to write GRE? Guess u wld ve more options if u be it. Check university of windsor, Odette Business School. For aids and all please check the school site as well as some Google search. Gurus in the house can't do much cos no one has info about all the schools in Canada. |

kennykentipsy: To those expecting medical call you all shall receive good news there shall be no delay by God's grace I have a couple of questions to ask as follows :
1 Apart from wakanow where can I book flight tickets
2 Which international airport is closer to Niagara ?
3 At the port of entry what will I be asked ?? What if am to show prove of finances at the port of entry how do I go about it ??
4 Does any one know anybody at Niagara college I need contact Asap ..would need accommodation 1) maybe you should contact your travel agent 2) you will stop at yyz ( Toronto international airport) . 3) for sure you gonna come with some fund. If probed further tell the border agent that u've got some cash in ur bank card. I don't think u will be asked lots of questions regarding this. 4) why don't you start looking for accommodation on kijiji, craigslist etc. Before I left naija I got accommodation by googling If you looking for cheaper way to travel, do you have usa visa? If yes, you can stop at newyork then enter megabus from newyork to Niagara canada for like $30. If you don't have yankee visa then do the yyz stop. Guess yyz is like 350-400k at the moment. Have fun bro |

First class in Agric economics, could not get a job she went for masters and got distinction up till now no work after thousands of application . She teaches in a secondary school where she is paid 30k. I have told her to apply to Canada she will get schoolarship for PHD , guess what she is not motivated at all.

AriseOCompatrot: My question is...will you be able to combine academics with baby-care? I guess that the beginning part of a program is the most intensive part so if your program is to start in January and you are due to delivering February, how do you plan to cope? Sorry arise say I tag u @ sirie, sorry if I spelt it wrong. Your case it convoluted as well as interesting 1) been pregnant should not affect ur visa app 2) you can give birth in canada that should not be a problem The thing is that masters abi schooling in canada is pretty tough oh. To takecare of kid, give birth and go to school at the same time would be extremely tough but doable. My advise would be to come with enough money, I mean good money to pay for part time helper or day care when needed. Please, with ur profile don't think of working in canny for now cos Ur hands are full. Go girl, you are a super mum you can do it. |

hayqinsbFX: My sister which year you graduate...
When u say kciking it...hope u don't mean a 150k per month job....
All in all...I'm not generalising but when it comes to statistics...you'll have more people finding it hard even after a very good grade...whicch in summary kills the motivation required to graduate with a good grade. For sure it's well over 300k na. When u come to Canada, how much do u even think u can make as a fresh graduate? U go surprise say the exalted canada go give u $2500 abi 3k after tax = 400 abi 450k. Well brother forget been focused in school pays whether lecturer kill ur morale or not. My own lecturer demoralize me as well na. |

My close friend ws d best grad stdnt in my sch wen I graduated....now I'm sure the money given to him has finished..

Crich: Hmmm!!! 1) Lecturers are no longer serious. They dont impact knowledge. They dont even have the knowledge to impact. Students dont put efforts into personal studying. 2) Students say no be who read know book, na who pass. So, they try to work their way up from their 'pass' brain to 3rd class or 2.2 3) Lecturers say 1 n 2.1 belong to them, so they ensure students dont get good grades. Wetin person no go see for Naija. 4) Students say 2.2 is okay. So they intentionally work towards it 5) The atmosphere isn't conducive. This is the reason we do better when we school in other countries 6) The list is endless My elder bro contested one of his results and the lecturer made sure he ended up without a 1st class but a 2.1. My kid bro had a 1st class but not without a big fight. I'm sure ur observation has always been, not new. Although it's not the fault of some that they came out 2.2 n below Thank you so much for the analysis. About Nigerians doing well abroad hmm not all oh some still dey switch from engineering to business and graduate with bsc linguistics lol. It is well sha. Thanks Crich |

hayqinsbFX: In your days, a first class students life is made already! Nowadays a first-class civil engineering student can be working in a block making industry!
One word! MOTIVATION! It has disappeared! Very interesting. Hmm. When u say in my days it makes me feel like an old man that fought the biafra war. I'm a young dude like u who graduated in 2007 lol. Motivation coupled with the fact that a couple of our students don't wanna put in effort in anything. The kind of questions that come through on this forum sometimes you can't help but notice that some of our student lack research skill, u can't help but wonder if they wrote their project themself or they bought it from librarian at Babcock university lol. Don't get me wrong brother. No disrespect to anyone I'm super sorry guys. No vex. I just noticed something and wanted to ask the gurus in the house. |

Solo8: Fair enough, maybe it's just among my field, my circle and my mentors. I just think being an engineer in the energy industry (and a Canadian citizen) , there are so many other certifications and educational routes I could take that'll cost me less money, less time and less workload and will impact my pay check positively almost immediately. I feel MBA has more weight among people in other field than it does ion ours, at least earlier in your career. I might consider it when I'm way older.
I don't have an MBA though, so you know what doors it has potentially opened for you better than I do. I'm weird like that sometimes. As an engineer, it's nice for you to have an MBA down the road if u looking at getting into management. Almost all my colleagues have got their peng as well as MBA. Well, I understand where you coming from 45-90k for a program that might not impact ur paycheck immediately might seem unreasonable to some. |

Onyeoma3: I'm quite aware they do but I'm trying to make comparison between paper based research and industrial based research.
The PhD students have work experience in the academic environment,specifically TA and RA, but they don't have direct Industrial experience except those that are lucky to do their internship programs in the industry at some point during their program whereas those doing industrial based projects work directly with the industries. The latter opens up more opportunities in the long run. You doing your PHD? |
