Let me be the first to wish you all a Happy Happy Happy New Year! In this year, the Lord will do you good and heaven shall compensate for every lost time and opportunity that the canker worm stole. I celebrate you in advance of your testimony. May the Lord rain down TRV on all who are genuine students and will do Nigeria proud. May he never give rest to the wicked. May the Lord give you all a spirit of patience and wisdom and understanding as go through this difficult process of application of leaving your home and going to a foreign country to study. May you find favor on all who open your application to read. May all your wishes come true in the new year and may God bless you with the best gift of all--the gift of good health and more of himself exulted in your life. May your hands be busy and fertile in 2018. I pray this for myself and all TRV hopefuls and those already in Canada studying because the battle continues.

Hello Lemia, I want to know if you got a supervisor first and then paid the application fee after

Lemia:
Hi,

Schools like University of Toronto are extremely competitive so you definitely have to secure a supervisor first before you apply and pay application fees. It's almost certain you won't be admitted for a research based program if you don't get a supervisor. Unless you probably have a perfect GPA, amazing letter of intent and awesome letters of recommendation and even at that, it's not certain.

Also I must say that some departments don't require you to get a supervisor first so you have to find out what the requirements for your department are.

Getting a supervisor is a very difficult task when you're looking to get funding from the professors but if you're funding yourself or you have an external scholarship, it's way easier. You just have to state it in the email.

All the best man. See you in Toronto soon enough.

I am also an applicant to University of Toronto ECE Department. I secured a potential supervisor.

What’s your course?

Lemia:
Also did the professor agree to fund you?

justwise:
This is what you need to decide yourself because its an expensive project. Don't leave it for strangers to decide for you.

Doing a course at the same level as your previous qualification is acceptable as long as you can justify your reason for taking such step.

@JUSTWISE

So a follow up to this, I contacted Brandon University for a degree in Geology after a second class lower degree (2.92/5.00 GPA) in Nigeria.

I asked if some courses would be waived for me as I already completed one degree in it.

The reply was yes, but they would need an Official syllabus from my previous Univeristy, I know of Official Transcript, I don't know how they get official Syllabus?

How do I go about this?

Hello Room!

I was going through the thread and I noticed that most applicants were refused of their study visas based on the following grounds shorlisted on this post and this has given most of them sleepness night, some have decided to quit the Canadian dream and end up having the mindset that Canadian study visa is tough and can not be easily approved unless you use an AGENT, some even go as far as paying millions to AGENTS just to get their study visa. I must tell you that it is a lie, most agents even go as far as complicating issues for applicant, which most times lead to misrepresentation and a 5 years Ban. After reading this post, you have to get up to your feet , beat your chest and do things in the right way and get your study permit app approved Asap.

RECENT REFUSAL GROUNDS:

1-) Purpose of visit
2-) Current employment situation
3-) Personal asset and financial status.
4-) family ties in Canada or home country.

In this post I'll address the above reasons and give POSSSIBLE WAYS to tackle the concerns of the visa officer.

1-) PURPOSE OF VISIT -

It is important that your visit coincides with an important event in your life or the purpose of the visit can be reasonably explained in your SOP. If it is for study you must have qualifications in that field or have the expertise in that area. Most times, your job role or company should be relevant to previous studies and to your chosen field of study in Canada.
If you decide to change career path, it should be clearly stated on your SOP with compelling/strong/ and convincing reasons to why you decide to change a career path.

Your letter of intent should reflect the following and should be addressed in each paragraphs to avoid repetition.
1-) Describe your academic background briefly.
2-) Why you choose Canada not Nigeria.
3-) The school.
4-) The program of choice.
5-)How you intend to finance your studies in Canada without working.
6-) What you intend to achieve at the end of the program and how it might benefit you in the future.

Everything should point to 'studying in Canada' not working or visiting friends and family in Canada or securing a PR after completion of studies.

Address all academic backlogs, study gaps, study plans etc... on your SOP.


2-) CURRENT EMPLOYMENTSITUATION

Every embassy will like to satisfy themselves that the applicant has a gainful employment in their country of residence and that the prospects of getting a job when they loose their current one is high. That satisfies them that you won’t leave your job when you travel to their country. Canada’s High Commission is no exception. You need to prove to them that you’ve been working for at least 2 years continuously, you earn a good salary, say CAD$400- CAD$1,000 plus a month depending on the level of your education, you have leave to travel, and you are qualified for the job you are currently employed in. So add your CV, school certificates, previous and current job offer letters, leave letters, pay slips and introductory notes from your firm to evidence your employment.

3-) PERSONAL ASSET AND FINANCIAL STATUS

Like most embassies, the Canadian High Commission will also be interested in your finances. Show a 6-month bank statement or more for any Canada visa application; both current and savings accounts, showing your salaries or income from employment. If you have treasury bills, building society savings, mortgages, microfinance or credit union savings and the pass book or certificates, share investments in companies etc, add all to prove you have enough financial resources before and after your trip. There is no cut off bank statement figure. So try as much as possible to show your monthly inflow and outflow of salaries in your salary bank statement with a good closing balance as a proof of financial establishment.

4-)

FAMILY TIES IN CANADA OR HOME COUNTRY

Prospective travellers who were refused with this point wondered why they should have a family in Canada before being given the visa. Note that the full statement is “family in Canada OR family in your home country”. So its either you failed to prove each criterion or both criteria, that is, whether you have family ties in Canada or whether you have family ties to your home country. This is what you do :

Show sufficient ties to your home country i.e. what will compel you to return home?

1-) Do you have a spouse and kids(minors) and are you leaving them behind?
2-) Do you have elderly parents who depend on you?
3-) Do you own businesses/property that you need to continue managing?
4-) Do you have adequate funds?
5-) Do you have family members whom are not accompanying you to Canada?

All these mentioned are HOME TIES, so if you have any of the following listed, endeavor to show evidence to each of them and make sure you add it to your application.

The above information is Legit and was obtained from a Canadian Legal personnel.

I wish you all Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year.

All the best to the hopefuls and to the approved, CONGRATULATIONS!!!.
