Greetings from Toronto to you all incoming and prospective students. ON how to get cheaper air tickets, Isuggest you do book it through credible websites or agencies. You could always check and compare prices from expedia.com and make a choice. I am pretty sure the VAC/IOM which process your applicants also has extremely discounted air ticket rates for Canada-bound students . Dubious individuals posing as ticket agents may inflate the rates or abscond with your money. Be cautious.

On student jobs here in Canada, as one of the colleagues said above it is always open to chances, the season and the aggressiveness of the student. I was a masters student in Political science and had a guaranteed job as Teaching and Research Assistant for 1yr. I was making $32/hr

What you must know is that most student visas come with limited number of on/off-campus hours of work. In most cases CIC forbids you from working more than 20hrs per week so long as you are a full time student. What most aggressive students do is to do what is called working under carpet. it means you work alright but must make sure your company doesnt pay in your name so it does not reflect in the database of the government. There are ways around that sha. Summer (May-Aug) is the best time to land multiple jobs in populated provinces like Ontario. Be careful not to overwork and have your academic grades sink. The best way to get a job here is to sign up with Temporal recruitment agencies, register with job search websites or rely on referrals of other students who are already established here. You could make btn $CAD 11.35-20 depending on the type of job. I hope this helps.nIf you need help with accomodation or airport pick up I am ready to help. Only for students coming to Ontario

@Habeeb: it should be pretty easy to transfer from the states to Canada into an undergraduate program American education is highly reputed by Canada and vice versa so it shouldn't be a challenge for you. Once you can identify a program of choice here in Canada and a school you should be able to do a transfer. Start making choices on which school, program or province you want to move to. Most importantly, you should have the funds to pay the fees as well.

On the applicant facing second visa denial (Inkblood), kindly see whether your documentation and financial stuff were excellent. The least doubt you allow the CIC you will be refused. Did you do the tuition payment before aapplying or it was not a condition by the school? Did your parents provide a strong financial sponsorship documents in support? Have you been previously refused visa by other embassies? Lots of questions should be answered in your evaluation. Most importantly you should read in detail the specific reason the CIC gave you for refusing the visa.

@ Etunnu: that is so not true and you know it. I have only one account in Kris99. Any other name is not mine. I could show you a link to confirm my identity here in Canada on my University's website.You could even see pictures of me on the website winning awards. I am a graduate with MA in Political Science. I was only motivated to join this page because a fellow Nigerian girl at Niagara college went through hell from Pearson Intl Airport when she arrived. I took it upon myself to help other students to smoothly transition into Canada in terms of airport pick ups and accomodation. If you have any dubious intentions for pulling a lie that I operate Kriss77, I propose that the administrators of this page to investigate and take me off asap. I know how dubious we Africans can be and I have been cautioned about rules of engagement on this page.

Hi Kaygreen,

Nice to connect. I am glad you are far advanced with your application. I hope you get the visa asap. On accommodation, I will suggest that you rent an apartment of-campus as it is cheaper than staying in student housing on-campus. Depending in which city or region within Ontario you stay, you are like to pay between $400-500 per month in rent. If you secure your visa and and your air ticket and you need my help, I can huk you up directly with a landlord in an area close to your school for accommodation arrangement. You wont have to pay 1kobo until you move into the house upon arrival. I hope this information helps. All the best.

Hello everyone! Not here to cause a fight or anything but a concerned nairalander that cares so much about everyone here.
We are making effort to succeed and it 'll be unkind for an inconsiderate fellow to tarnish that dream for his/her selfish gains.
That said @krisss , @kriss77 @kris99 are one and same...I will attach pictures for you to see. Notice that the bbm pins are the same! @etunu pointed This out and I verified!
This is someone that claims to be new a week ago and now he is a student in Canada! Please please...a word they say is enough for the wise.

Yes it is really sad. Please we should be very careful here. Someone on this thread offered to help me pay my tuition fee simply because I was not sure how to go about it. It is very sad because everyone here is struggling, nobody has it easy. We are all brothers and sisters. Please a note of caution to folks out here.

Lol
Mine was #171/CAD1. The total money deducted was #22,917.. UBA na thief.

@ all, in case anybody needs to make application fee, i think the best bet still remains peer transfer, the charges are not as exorbitant as all these banks, anyone who is interested can try it,provided your school is on their list,which i think it should cuz they ve got very wide coverage of most schools and colleges...my2cents...

Travel Tip #1:
Do not put important documents, money and laptop in your main luggage. our might not be guaranteed that it will not be stolen from the airport in Nigeria after you have checked-in. Keep relevant documents such as passport, offer letter, proof of payment receipt or scholarship documents in your hand luggage. These documents will come handy when you touch down and head to join the immigration queue to obtain your study and work permit. There are instances where students kept valuables in main luggage and had them missing. 40-60min as you approach your destination( say the Pearson Airport in Toronto or Montreal) you will be asked by the air hostess to fill a declaration form. On this form you must provide the following information: Biodata, address you lived in in Nigeria, Contact number of someone home, address you will be staying in Canada, whether you have funds on you to declare or not, whether you are carrying any food item in your main luggage or not. For some of us, the smartest answer to give them is that you carry no funds on you( cos the moment you declare you do carry you must disclose the amount and go througha long process of clearance) . Same with food items. you will be asked to disclose..even if u carried stork fish or indomie i beg make unna no disclose am. It complicates things.
