Your options look straightforward but there are not.

In the first option, you dont need to secure a supervisor and funding is assured if offer is made. In such school, to get admission is hard because they've many reasons not to give you offer: lack of fund, no supervisor to take you, low grade etc. I dont know your CGPA anyway.

In the second option, no funding, but you've already secured a supervisor, which means that your admission is 50% assured unlike the first option.

If you've a good result, go for the first option.

First option is your call. With such result & good SOP; offer & funding is assured.

Josh1996:
My people sorry for the questions. Pls I have one more last slot to apply to one more school out of two..but am confused
The first option is a school that doesn't require u securing a supervisor and could offer me an admission scholarship
The second option is a school where I have secured a supervisor already but no scholarship or funding .
Which do I pick?

Hi everyone. All the best in our various applications. God will help and favor us all.

I have come to say again that if you have any thought of staying in Canada after study, it will never be a bad idea to read about Canada express entry. Some of us did this time last year and God has been faithful.

I don’t know much about the study visa now but I would advise you write “full admission scholarship” as your sponsor, in the crucial cic form, if you have scholarship that can cover your tuition and living expenses. During my time, I wrote that and only added bank accounts (mine and dad) of less than #2m to my app. Some scholarship holders account was not even up to that and they got their student visa.

Online route or Paper route?

Hello fam,
I have an Interview with a potential supervisor . My brain is currently on overdrive. Please help me..any suggestions on what I should expect would be appreciated.

AKFTK:


Be calm and collected.

I had an interview with a POI last Month, it was casual and interesting. The professor told me about his research area and what he'd like me to work on. He told me what interests him about my application and what his expectations. Nothing too technical. I believe most times, they just want to familiarise themselves with you.

If you have specific questions about Tue research area or topic, ask.

You can also ask about his/her lab, the working culture and if there's going to be funding.

I wish you the best...

Thanks dear. Wont NYSC SOA be another confusion? Cant my nysc certificate show that i have been serving my country since graduation? I hope it wont backfire cos my uncle should have enough balance in his bank statement to account for my studies.

Also can I use my father's SOA to support?

Please is it okay to open a domiciliary account and let my uncle transfer my living expenses for the first year there? Then provide SOA for that...will it show a sign of commitment if we dont pay tuition during application cos UAlberta does not do a refund of tuition paid on the bases of denied visa.

Be cool, all the interviews I have had or seen other people have with potential supervisors, have always been informal like you are talking to a friend. Nothing to worry, just communicate to him in plain language, no preparations are needed. Just back and forth about what your interests are and what the professor's is. They are also usually a little familiar with admissions and can give you a few tips where and how your admission application is holding up.

Bosses, please I am already filling the online application of one of the universities in canada, but I don't have my transcript with me as my school are not issuing it yet. But I have my compiled results (from my 100-500 with my CGPA) with me. Can I upload that as an unofficial transcript.
Thanks

Please how do I fill the study permit questionnaire? Print out and fill with a pen?

QUEENBIZ:

Hi,
Do you mean tuition deposit or the whole tuition fee as I am planning to pay my full tuition prior to my study permit application

Thanks

makano:
You will fill with a pen for paper application. Try getting it before going to VFS cos it's quite expensive to get a copy around the VFS.

HI GUYS,
Please i need your advice i am a HND holder and i have received my letter of acceptance for advance diploma program in nova scotia. i have printed out the study visa application, have all the requirement aside my proof of financial status which does not meet their requirement but my friend is ready to help me out.
My question is how do i go about it using my friend as a sponsor?
can one have more than one sponsor?

makano:
If ur friend is very capable to sponsor you, why not. Buh he will need to really do his homework as ur sponsor to convince the VO cos the truth is i haven't seen a friend as sponsor since ma stay on dis thread. 2. U can use more than 1 sponsor very possible.. good luck
