Hello everyone,
I applied through an agent for study visa and I got the below letter. Called the agent people severally so they can inform me on my status but they kept on saying nothing yet until I got this letter mailed to my house address on the 28th of December and the letter is dated 21st. I was rejected based on visit visa as against study visa which implies that I am ineligible to apply for visitors visa.I don’t know if that’s normal or there is a mistake somewhere. please what can be done?

This is why using an agent is bad....u wanna apply for study visa but instead applied for visitor visa...sorry all the same, if u have time...go through the thread...u will see how to apply for study visa on your own...the rejection doesn't imply dat u can't apply for visa again...but in your reapplying, state that u wea denied a visitors visa

Believe me when I say I totally understand how this feels,but please think of the course you would like to study on your own,don't let anyone suggest the course you should take. Attending lectures,doing assignments etc,nobody's going to do that for you...you need to have passion for what you're studying...its your future...
So,you can mention the course you want to study and I'll suggest schools that would take this result..I know because I have someone who applied with a result that isn't this good and got accepted,it also depends on the requirement for your course though because she is in arts department and your result shows you're a commercial student.
Just decide on your course first and search the website of the school you choose for that course's requirement..

Fakosi:
Lol. Don't worry, we're next in line

By God's grace

Hello, I'm seriously looking for people applying to flight schools. I can seem to find any Nigerian who went to, is at or planning to go to canada for studies. Just wondering if there is a problem with Nigerian studying in Canada or since its considered a vocational training visas is an issue. IELTS is not a requirement for admission but is it necessary for the student visa and since a degree is not a requirement will I need a transcript. Adding my degree to the application is to account for those years. Any info will be appreciated as canada visa application seems like a lot of work and time. Thanks

I think I have someone in Sweden.

Lol. God forbid what? Are u not a June 21st applicant awaiting decision?

Thank you for replying. I was thinking of sociology, or Art related( I am gifted in arts) or education (probably early years education as I am great with kids and have a thing for preschool teaching) I really just want something that I excel in and being multi talented is confusing me.

Are you a mature student?
Mature student's age vary from school to school...some schools its age 21 some 22 and I know one that is 65years old,In some schools they only recognize a person as a mature student if the person's a Canadian citizen.I'm asking because the undergraduate admission requirements for mature students are a bit relaxed than that of younger students.
Application deadlines for the faculty of education in some schools differ from that of other faculties,like the university of Manitoba now,its February 1 instead of March 1 for other faculties...
I only checked U of M just now because that's my school...you can check the admission requirements for your faculty in other schools...i can check other schools for you later but I'm not promising. The best thing is for you to check yourself because even after finding a school that will accept your result, you will still need to check other things like tuition+other fees

please do anyone have knowledge on how good is Memorial University of Newfoundland for Master's or currently in Memorial University of Newfoundland.

Student Landing Gist

Happy new year everyone.

Today January 1st 2019, I received a call from @Naijaforeigner who told me a nairalander would be landing at the London International Airport at noon. The guest was arriving from Lagos via Toronto and was coming to Canada to do his master at Western University. @Naijaforeigner asked me if we could go to pick him at the London International Airport. After checking with "mrs TheCongo2", there was no objection. However, mrs asked me that I should give the kids their baths before going out of the house . And this was done promptly.

I left my house to pick up @Naijaforeigner and then we were on the way to the Airport.
London International Airport is small with only one terminal. The flight from Toronto to London can take about 30 minutes whereas the road would take 2 hours. It was 10 minutes past noon when we arrived at the aiport and our guest was already there. His flight had landed at noon. He didn't have to go through the immigration process in London given that he had done that in Toronto.
Given that he was coming to Canada on student visa, he was given the work permit at the immigration in Toronto. Foreign students are authorized to work ON and OFF campus in Canada while enrolled in school.

Our guest didn't have the time to wait for his SIN number application to be processed in Toronto because he had to catch his connecting flight to London. So, he decided that he will apply for his SIN card in London. Given that January 1st is a holiday, all businesses were closed. Therefore, we couldn't assist our guest with the process of applying for his SIN number nor open his bank account nor getting a cellphone. He would wait for the next business day.


Our guest intention was to stay at the hotel for 3 days before getting an appartment. However, before our guest arrived, @Naijaforeigner had already called around some landlords in the vicinity of Western University. Naijaforeigner knows the challenge of getting accommodation in London given that he himself had arrived in Canada 3 weeks ago on student visa. Therefore, he wanted to use his experience to help new comers.

After we left the aiport with our guest, we went straight to visit the first house and we were welcome by the landlord. This man was very friendly and welcoming. The house had 5 bedroooms and 2 of the rooms were unocupied. All the other tenants are student from Western University.This place was also within a walking distance from Western University. One of the rooms was shown to our guest. It was furnished. The landlord told our guest that he could move in right away by only paying the first month rent. There was no need for a lease nor a downplayment. And he could move out anytime he wanted. I personnaly like the place but our guest didn't seem too enthusistic about taking it. Our guest wanted to visit the other places before making his final decision. We told the landlord that we will get back to him and left the place.


We drove off to visit the next house in a new and very nice neighborhood. We were welcome by the friendliest elderly couple. This couple was white. In fact all the landlord we saw today and the tenants were white. The elderly couple live alone in a 2 level house. When we walked into the house, the couple ushered us to the lower lever of the house which was the basement. They were renting their basement which was furnished. The basement had a bedroom, a bathroom, a living room set but no kitchen. We all loved this place. But, there was a downside. No cooking. If our guest had to take that place, he wasn't going to be cooking in the house. At this our guest turned off this place given that it would be too expensive to start buying food from restaurants every day.
On our way out from the house, I noticed 2 books by John Grisham on a table. I screemed "Who is reading John Grisham".
The wife pointing the finger to the husband "He is the one reading them".
I told them how John Grisham is my favor author. Then the husband gave me a book by a different author and told me "Take this one and read it, I am sure you will like him as well".
Wow ... I marvelled ... I got a free book from this couple.


We drove off again to view another place. This new place was a 4 bedrooms house. The landlord was expecting our visit and he was on site. All the tenants were also students at Western University. After viewing this new place, our guest was satisfied that this was the place he was going to take. The landlord told him that he can move in right away if he wanted to. However, our guest explained to the landlord that he was going to stay at the hotel at least for one day and would move in the next day. He provided his email address to the landlord so that the landlord can send him the lease to sign.


Then, we drove off to the hotel. The hotel name was "Guest House on the Mount". Our guest paid for his stay with his nigerian credit card. He was assigned a room. It was almost 3 pm when we got into our guest's room, almost 3 hours after he had landed in London. We seated down and started to chat. Our guest said that he didn't like London from what he had seen so far. He was disappointed with London.
Suddenly, I received a call from "mrs TheCongo2" with the majestic "Where are you?"
I told her that we had just got to the hotel and I was ready to be heading back home.

By this time, our guest remembered that he hadn't eaten. He was hungry. @Naijaforeigner was invited to a nigerian party. So he decided to take our guest with him so that he can eat nigerian food. To get to the party, we had to drive from the Northern part of the City of London to the Southern part by passing through downtown London. OMG... our guest's mind about London changed as we were driving through the city. He found that London Ontario was extremely beautiful and he loved it. He felt like he will enjoy his stay in London, Ontario.

Naijaforeigner:
I don’t know anyone in Manitoba but you can post on this thread
https://www.nairaland.com/3617393/living-canada-life-canadian-immigrant/502 you need help and the Permanent residents there will help you settle in easily. Trust me you need help for bank account and SIM card and probably few days accomdation, it will save you lots of cash.

Also google churches close to the school, they are always willing to help.

Thank you.
