Long post alert…..
I want to start by thanking God who listens to all prayers, my family, Raphael even if he’s no longer on this thread, frankrobben, glitteringstar, thank you so much for the SOP review and everyone who replies my questions on this thread. Below is my timeline
University of Saskatchewan, MPH, Fall 2018.
Applied 17th May online route
Biometrics 18th May
Medical request 7th June
Medical Passed 21st June (I will explain the delay in my next post)
Passport Request 27th June

From Me
• Transcripts from my previous university
• Degree Certificate
• IELTS result (just submitted since I had it)
• WAEC result
• NYSC certificate
• All health related Certificates
• Employment letters (Industrial Training and NYSC ONLY, I’M A FRESH GRADUATE)
• Resume
• My tuition fee payment receipt for one year
• My personal domiciliary account statement with over 10CAD deposited by my father
• Police Clearance Certificate
• Upfront medicals
No travel history in fact refused visa to 3 other countries for conferences and that’s how I explained it

From my Father
• Letter of sponsorship from my father
• His International Passport Data Page
• His personal bank statements for the past six months (we planned it so he saved money over time to avoid lump sum)
• Bank reference
• His personal Tax Clearance Certificate
• His Certificates of Occupancy and that of his company
• Proof of relationship: my birth attestation
• Parents’ Marriage certificate
• His recent travel history
• Company Sponsorship Board Resolution (Note: they stated that they will assist my father with my expenses not that they will sponsor me. The company will not liquidate because I am going to school)
• Certificate of Incorporation
• Memorandum of association
• CAC forms
• Tax Clearance
• Business bank statements for the past six months
• Bank Reference
• All business licenses and contract registrations

I read from thread one over 5200 pages and I learnt a lot, my advice to everyone is
• READ, you will gain needed knowledge and more.
• Start early to prepare physically, mentally and financially to avoid rush, believe it or not frank reviewed my SOP last year and I got my admission letter April this year, I’m sure he was wondering Nawa ooo this girl sef.. LOL, I was ready for all and applied 3 weeks after.
• Submit a sincere application with necessary supporting documents backing up everything you say, they won’t waste your time if you’re straight to the point.
• Finally PRAYER… GOD ANSWERS PRAYERS, ITS JUST TIME AND PATIENCE.
With all these things you will succeed… I pray that God will meet you all at the point of your needs. AMEN!!!!

About my Upfront medicals
Remember they requested for another one, I had to send a mail to accra, lagos and even the case specific enquiry and after the post by someone here on nairaland on 19thjune, i sent an email to london and just London responded within 24 hours because I marked the subject as ‘!URGENT’ so if it’s important and you want a swift response, mark with urgent. Also, always reference your UCI and application number in all emails sent to them. For example

SUBJECT:
! Urgent: Information concerning Medical request

BODY OF EMAIL:
Principal Applicant:
Unique Client Identifier (UCI):
Application number:
Date of birth:
Date Received:

Thanks everyone for always sharing experiences as it helped me, I hope mine will help some of you.
