Schools definitely care because foreign students is their cash machine, how will they survive if they have empty classes, empty student accommodations but still have to pay lecturers who would have lectured those students? Do you think they are running charity organisation?

Of course people make up these rumours sometimes and when it turns out to be false you don't see them logging on here frequently.

justwise:


If there is a quota it will come from the schools limiting the number of foreign students to be admitted in a year and they will not issue admission when the number is reached. It makes no sense that the school will give admission to a prospective student knowing fully well that the student chances of getting a visa is almost nonexistent. Not only that...the student will waste time and money applying for TRV that he or she is unlikely to get.

kfrosh:
It is logical to believe that they would have a projected number of international students coming from each country for every session. Am sure they won't want to exceed that with an excessive margin so the best approach to that is just to reduce the number of successful applicants considerably . You don't expect them to come out and tell us they use a quota system.

loladeoye:
Too much speculations haba! As far as am concerned, TRV is certain on my pp. Quota or no quota. If you have not gotten TRV, please dont believe in quota. Let those who have gotten TRV believe in it.

loladeoye:


Infact only 1 person has gotten TRV in my dept for fall according to the info when i called the Uni and they are not happy about that. Paying lecturers with no student is just ....

TheBae:
Lol you talk like everyone who applies gets denied. Or like international students are only from Nigeria. Of course it's not a charity Organization but the best they can do is provide you with all necessary documents. The amount it costs you get TRV is not their problem. If CIC says "No", please what can the school do? Nothing. So it might be their loss by -1 student from Nigeria but even if they cared, their role is limited.
Well, I guess people can start rumours but if it's a rumour then it's a pretty reasonable one.

kennykentipsy:
though I used a Canadian immigration lawyer based in Canada to get my TRV I could remember the first thing he mentioned to me was the quoter thing telling me to get my documents to him on time due to fall quoter but I never understood

justwise:


We will know the truth if nobody gets TRV here till next year then, until then I take this as an unconfirmed rumour

Team12:
bro, @ the bolded; for those who got another medical request, that must have been an oversight from the VO. If you notice, all those people did was to call their hospital and in less than 30 minutes or at most the same day, the issue got resolved and medical status changed.

darefestus:


I never thought I will say this but for once I agree with you.

Just before I was delayed, there was a time when people were being delayed left, right and center. so much that the quota system became melody to some people's hears as they kept rehasing the same old tired nonsense about Fall resumption nearing blah blah.

Fast forward a month later, the story changed and everyone forgot "quota" , even the biggest propagators of the theory forgot and revelled in the abundance of trvs the thread recorded-how quickly people can change their opinion.

Team12:
Congratulations to all thos who just got medical calls and approval @GU2015 et all

@kfrosh, @2grozz and others who got delayed. Brace up, take your time, defer your admission, call for your gcms, tackle the loop holes and re-apply! God is your strength

Those 3 or 4 peeps who got delayed after medical request, can you please give the following info on your apps in the following order so we can look for similarities?

1. Program Title e.g International Business
2. Degree type e.g. Post Grad Cert
3. Institution e.g. Univ of Regina
4. Province e.g. Saskatchewan
5. Hospital used for Med e.g. IOM
6. Did you get "Medical Passed" mail? Yes/No

Thanks.

richcasey:
something strange happened to these May applicants. . . first, they were ignored when medicals started to flow in for June applicants. and then this May applicants later got their medical mail. which was later followed by a denial mail. i don't need a cleric to tell me something definitely went wrong somewhere.

we can all sit here to speculate whether there is a quota or not, but even if there is a quota, sending a medical mail and then a denial mail after, is sure not a proper way to deny applicants based on "quota" palava. i think there must have been an internal error or an internal audit.

it could have been a computer error... yall remember the 2012 American Visa Lottery computer error that led thousands of people to believe they had been selected as finalists in a U.S. immigrant visa lottery. and that selection process, involving nearly 15 million visa applicants, had to be re-run.

standupguy:


If quota really exist of course Ontario would have the highest number of applicants.

Onyeoma3:

Relationship to sponsor (and hence level of commitment to the applicant) might also be a key factor during file review in this fall injury time. They should indicate that as well, it might be useful...

I strongly believe there is quota and it means they are more strict in their assesment.
looking at your profile, you definitely tick all boxes to be given a TRV.
i believe CIC has a way of giving one a clue as to what went wrong in an app.
in yours il like you to look at the missing company sponsorship from your uncle that got missing.
it shows that was where you failed in a re-assesment.

funmi14:
How can I look for my missing sponsor documents, should I write CIC or what. Because I don't understand this issue again.

hayqinsbFX:
you dont need to write them.
you must have addressed it to them so its their property.
just take a clue from that and think about what to do.
with the amount of money you had, its obvious they werent too convinced about the sponsor.

on another day you might have gotten sponsorship not credible.

funmi14:
The sponsor letter signed by him, but the affidavit of support of sponsor, I did at Ikeja High court, I only wrote his initials( A.A) just on my way to Lekki submission.
Could this signature discrepancy be the issue.

Onyeoma3:


I was about to say that your application docs were okay if I'm left to say, but mehn, this was a very wrong move... It would have been better you left it out completely.
