Your area of interest is not related to biochemistry therefore I dont think you should pursue a masters in biochemisty. In addition, you do not have a work experience in biochemistry which will make your visa application more difficult.

I will recommend you consider supply chain or Quality assurance courses PGD level as its related to your area of interest as long as you have evidence to backup the work experience.

Universities will not admit you into masters in biochemistry as you do not possess a work experience in that field.

At the visa stage, do not include or mention you have a masters already.

Non-Nigerians are welcome in nairaland if they need help. But you can’t come to our Nigerian platform and be a troll. Mr Wizzzzmike please if you don’t like Nigerians go and create Cediland.

I don’t even know how this guy has not been kicked out nairaland. I’ve gone through his posts and he even calls Nigerians slave. Just take a look at his comments on other nairaland topics

Does it mean one must have relevant work experience to be admitted into masters program?

Even if you apply and get admitted, the visa officer during visa stage will be thorough because you have to show evidence of current employment.

If you dont have experience in chemistry, try to either work on making that experience available or go for the course you have work experience background on. Admission isnt a major issue but come visa time, the visa officer needs evidence of employment like employment letter, ID card etc.


So I recommend focusing on a course you have experience and flair in.

LONG POST ALERT

MARCH 2021 i got conditional offer from centennial college to study human resource management (pgd) i took a pause for 5months because i did not have enough money to pay for my deposit to get the proper admission letter (LOA), and also i did not have any means to to get proof of funds for visa application .so i had a friend who i said i could use his account he is into construction ,he had a balance of 20million but he wont be able to transfer the money to my account cos it is for his work.i remember asking a guru here if its possible to use a friends account and he was like 3rd party is not guarantee but nothing is impossible.so i took faith and use the account ,the worst will be a rejection and i will re strategize for my next application .i did not pay any deposit required by the school i just went ahead to use the admission deposit letter to apply.

As at when i applied in july 31 the statement of i used was 2moths late,it was not recent it was printed as at June 2nd ,i did not know the statement of account to be use has to be printed few days to your application to show its recent ,but i had already submitted my application.

my sop was just one page very scattered ,i wrote the wrong passport number in my sop .when i was addressing my sponsor i just wrote he is my uncle i did not add any picture or documents to prove relationship ,my home ties i said i had my mum and my dad back home to come back to .
After 3moths and 2weeks i decided to send a web form to remind ircc that i need a decision to know my next step in life.i sent the web form like 2ce, after then i just got feed up and i stopped checking,maybe because i have not even paid any school fee that might even be the reason for delay ,i paid for gcms notes with @mekano i was even reluctant to send my details ,he called to follow up for my details till now i have not still sent it cos i gave up on the application. 3rd week of November i decided to check my account but i could not access it ,it continued like that for over a week ,last friday i just decided to try it on another browser and behold it was original passport request(PPR) it dropped since on the 7th of December but saw it on the 10th,mind you my phone screen is bad so i did not have access to my mail i tried opening it on my system but was giving me plenty authentication wahala i just left it .

when i saw the ppr i ran out of my office was jubilation on the street telling my mum the good news .the lord did it when i was almost giving up no school fee paid ,no plenty documents submitted i used a total outsiders account for proof of fund ,all indication was against me but he turned it around for me for good .thank you Lord, i pray this favor goes round

This is quite a spectacular case. I often advise applicants to invest what's attainable while they hope for the best. A former VO once told me that he picked an interest in a certain applicant because they share a first name. Sometimes, the Visa Officer's perception of you speaks louder than your bulky documents. I'm sure your study permit wasn't mistakenly approved. You made a great impression in one way or the other.

Congratulations! I pray for a similar favour for other applicants.

I guess your best bet is to look for people to share a 2 or 3 bedroom apartment with. In this case, you would be the one to select your housemates, and not the other way round.

I have a friend planning to go through Ghana but plans using another foreign airline.

Hello Olaronke

I have explained this countless times, it's not about having millions in your account, it's about explaining and convincing the Visa officer that these funds will truly be available for your studies and living expenses all through your stay in Canada.. And you can do this through your LOE in your next application, you will need to explain in your LOE, your source of funds backed up with evidence.. e.g Transaction receipts, invoices e.t.c

Peace

My people, GOD DID IT!

A do-not-reply email from cic dropped this morning at 09:39AM and a second one dropped at 09:45AM, I was scared to my bone. I had to sum up the courage to sign in to my account to check. My people, application approved!

I return all the glory to God and say a big thank you to everyone here. You guys kept me busy during the wait because I kept coming here to read the testimonies. I stumbled on this platform in June, 2021 and somehow contacted a few persons whose names were referenced. Of all the people I contacted, @Frankrobbn1 gave me the hope to go on this journey. I kept asking him, Frank are you sure? He may have even been tired of me asking. I just want to say thank you, Frank and may God bless you richly. I am 44 years old just so you know. MBA Universitity Canada West. My School resumption date is January 10, 2022. I applied with my 5 year old daughter. Though hers is yet to be approved, I know it will come.

I watched @Blavkmaann video on youtube where he was celebrating the submission of his term paper and said some words of prayers. While the prayers were going on, I felt the urge to place my hand on my phone. He got to a point where he made this pronouncement “If you’re not in the abroad ….. may the person handling your visa application approve it in the Mighty name of Jesus.” I shouted Amen. The unction was so strong and at that point I knew it was a done deal.

To everyone waiting, yours will surely come. Just find ways to take your mind off it. For those who have been delayed, as I’ve come to learn on this platform, Request for your notes, Re-package and Re-fire.
