I think it'll be better to go via MSc in another health related field first, then later you do nursing. I hold a Bsc in human physiology looking to go for medicine later but I'm applying via MSc in another course first. We could connect if you don't mind, as I equally just started my application journey. I followed you.

Good day,
I would appreciate any form of assistance given in this case.

I hold a BSC in human anatomy, with CGPA of 3.6, I would like to apply nursing in one of these low tuition Canadian schools, initially, I was thinking of applying the nursing after degree program at University of Lethbridge but can't find enough information on it from my browsing the internet, like reviews from international students, then I stumbled on a write here that says admissions into 2 year nursing degree in Canada is too competitive for international students and suggested practical nursing.
I would like if one can suggest low tuition Canadian schools that offer practical nursing to me please

Thank you very much

LMIA is labour market Impact assessment, its allows employers within Canada to hire people from overseas, lots of folks have benefited from this and switched into permanent resident months or a year after landing in Canada, but lately it’s been difficult to get it without payment, back then it’s for free you apply online, they set you up for interview and that’s all but lately due to the high competition it’s coming with prices, my advice is if you can afford to get it go for it when you get in here switching to pr is not a big deal. You can be extremely lucky and get it for free, apply online luck can be on your side.

Please what is LMIA?

LMAO you know nothing about insecurities, no point calling kettle black, my self and few others are just been realistic, you have your phone do some research about the ongoing situations in Canada and you will understand a lot rather than attacking people here, no one is telling you not to be hopeful, you have to look out for other options instead of sitting and hoping for miracle. I stated in my earlier post about people looking into provinces that might be a way out, and also trying to learn French cos the French speakers are highly needed over here, you can also look into LMIA that’s the easiest route right now, when you get in you switch to PR. With everything been said if you still think someone is trying to block your progress then you must be delusional. The category based draw could have been beneficial to my kid sis, she has a 478 sitting on the pool, she’s kinda nonchalant reason why she didn’t get the previous health care draw around February she submitted her profile a day after the draw was done, what can we do we have to stay positive and look out for other options, I owe ircc nothing, I’m just an immigrant. If you like keep attacking people here and don’t find way forward. Before I leave you can check Twitter another draw just dropped, and it’s for pnp that’s the provincial nominee program.

Congratulations to her...
Please how long did the entire process take? I mean, from the time she created an EE profile to when she got PR.

PanicButton:
PPR for my sis.

I was her representative and applied on her behalf.

I'm not looking to be a physician in Canada. Just want to use it as route to leave Nigeria first.

amnotapervert:
Even those who studied at the best medical school in Canada, the University of Toronto, don't want to work in Canada.

One reason is that they can't get placement after school and it's even difficult to get into medical school

That's a discussion for any day

About 70% of medical students move to the USA after medical school in Canada.

Google "most difficult country to be a doctor" and guess what? Canada will come up.

There are only so many working physicians with the time and resources to take in students while the healthcare system continues to be strained and doctors are overtaxed.

Don't waste your time trying to be a doctor in Canada.

In my honest opinion, these are just facts, no feelings.

Hello everyone. I'm new here.
I'm just about to start my own relocation journey and I don't know how to start.
First off, I have an aunt in the US who's likely going to be my sponsor. I already have a BSc in human physiology (2'1) here in Nigeria but I want to go back to school for Medicine. Now my aunt suggested it's better I move to US/Canada first via another course program and then I can work towards getting into med school from there as it'll be a bit easier since I'll already be out of Naija (the processes involved in getting into med school in the US and Canada is quite complex esp from outside the countries).
So she asked that I search for schools in Canada (we ruled out US because of how complex their visa issuance can be) that I can gain admission into and then relocate. What I'd like to know now is;
• Is Canada study visa still a bit obtainable as at now?
• Will her serving as my sponsor work out?
• How many hours can students work in Canada? (She ruled out Canada because she said their work hours for students isn't enough
• How feasible will it be to begin my med school journey upon completion of my Canadian program?
• Is there any other route I can probably use instead? Because thinking of how I'll have to finish a 2yrs course first before starting what I actually want is making the whole thing tiring.
Lastly, please where do I begin my process/journey from? I've checked google and the information is overwhelming.
I'll appreciate suggestions, Thanks.
