Not yet. But I have done biometrics

Orelice:
Congratulations did you have a BSc before? How did you convince the visa officer

I've a bachelor degree in Education/French.
Thank you.
I wrote in my SOP that i am already involved in teaching (Education/French), I am not looking for only theoretical knowledge but also structured exposure to real childcare environments.
Seneca’s emphasis on observation, curriculum planning, and child development aligns directly with the skills I need to become an effective early childhood educator. While my diploma in early childhood Education in seneca deals with hands-on training that will allow me to gain practical experience while working with young children in professional educational settings. I linked my Bachelor’s degree and the diploma together.

Yeah the correspondence letter comes after they’ve put the counter foil in your passport, I had an information letter as well about not needing a separate coop work permit

bachelor degree in Education/French NICE!!!!!! if you have good work experience from Nigeria, make sure you write your IELTS and a recognized French language test before you finish school in Canada. Then create your Express Entry profile as soon as possible. Your profile will be very strong... and might get your PR before you finish your school congratulation and all the best

My program is Early Childhood Education at seneca. It's very good.

Guys i have a question

I have already paid my tuition deposit which is $10k and the other half with is $10k plus living expenses and flight which is an extra $30K making a total of $40k in my pof.

Is this enough to apply for my visa ?

And if not what’s the idea amount I should have ?

Yes it is ,as long as you can prove the source of the 40k .

I also paid 11k for first semester and have about 43k in POF. though I’m yet to get a final decision . Applied 21st of April ,medical passed and I speak French with a band 7 in academic ielts. So keeping fingers crossed for a positive decision this week .

Ideally, it should be clear to the visa officer your financial pathways to offsetting all tuition fees, misc school fees and full living experiences for the duration. Remember the Canadian economic situation now with the Trump's tarrifs and high cost of living is very tight. No guarantees of jobs that will help you to cover your outstandings plus they are looking for excuses to reduce student visa this period. What if they dont want to give you work permit? A sponsor support could help. Don't take my word for it, I am not an expert.

This is over 3 months since you applied. Does anyone know why it would take this long for some people?

This mindset is bad. IT WILL WORK! From your lips to God's Holy ears. Tell Him how you want it to be. Manifest it.

When I said a few months ago that you need at least ₦65 million in readily available cash as Proof of Funds for one person, some people on this forum came after me.......

The truth is, the truth will always remain the truth.

The average tuition for a 2-year program in Canada is about CAD $45,000, ( except you go for the few cheaper schools but you have to be careful about the type of cheap school you select) and the required living expenses for one person are approximately CAD $22,895.

Now do the math.....
