I am sorry for the long post

I have tried getting into a masters(m.ed) programme(early childhood education)but was told i cant because my major isnt education.i have a b.sc im mass communication. I have googled pgd ,But most are undergraduate diploma (both in colleges and univrersity)which will give me a transfer into a b.sc in early childhood education .While some are not for international students.The(1year) accelerated /fast will still give me a bsc.degree .the closest i could get is a post baccaleaurete (16months)which will give me a b.sc after completion and and a masters after that.(comfirmed from the university).i intend to go for the last option.(postbacc).but my question is: is it convincing enough to say i intend to get another bachelors since i havent any foundation/theorectical background in education? Secondly:can such defence work in the case of an undergraduate diploma.(i still prefer a college its cheaper and i found a 16month diploma program in a college that has two similar course i took in my undergraudte days studying mass communication).Thirdly : does my sponsor have to have all the tuition cost for diploma and masters in her acct as i intend explain further in my sop that i will be applying for my masters after the post bacc. in my mid 30's.

Hello House i have being a silent follower of this thread since i put in my application that was recently approved and will like to appreciate every member for their contributions.

My intention was to go Fall 2017 entry but still yet to receive my passport that was approved on 30/08/2017 and making travel arrangements and settling in won't be easy at this time. Hence, i am considering going for winter entry but the challenge i'm having is i used Uwaterloo for VISA application but no longer want to go their after considering several factors and will prefer U of Regina where i have admission offer valid till winter 2018 but waterloo informed me i can no longer defer admission since i have deferred once (May 2017 when application was still being processed).

Please how does changing DLI works for a postgraduate student like me. Can i change DLI from waterloo to Regina before entering Canada or what do you advice i do because i want to resuming studies for Winter 2018 at Regina but used waterloo to apply for VISA but waterloo does not accept a second deferal.

Your suggestions and advice will be greatly appreciated.

House, I have two quick questions. For those that followed online route whose application were recently approved, did you need to pay any service fee to submit your passport at the VAC in Lagos? What did you take along to the VAC besides your passport?

Hello everyone, I got my passport today & was refused based on just finances, the three boxes ticked, even though I paid 1st semester tuition, my question now is, I am confused, if I get to tackle finances, hope there is no possibility of getting denied again based on another reason or I should just end canadian dream on this note because the emotional trauma isn't here.NB: I am a nurse, applied for Pgc in a nursing related course,

someborry:

Good afternoon gurus in the house, please frends I am new here. I graduated from Nigeria university with second class lower in geology and mining. I want to do my PGD in Canada, I want a school that offers scholarship. Please I need guide lines. Thanks

You too refused to submit transcripts and SOP at your own peril? @Austinpee4, lol. Congrats!! And how comes you did biometric twice? I suggested the other day that CIC can make you do biometrics twice if the first one was not good. The same person said it was not possible and even if it were, they won't tell you to do it at the same time with medicals. It's CIC you are dealing with bro!
