Is Nysc necessary? I just graduated and considering if to start applying to universities or do nysc first?

You need to do your nysc....all you will do is apply towards the end of your nysc.....

A lot of us kinda outgrow the thread (I will too soon), but I just feel we all should create time to help one another scale what is in my opinion the most difficult hurdle of this process - the VISA hurdle.

I attended orientation today and the number of asians that are resuming school were way more than half (they move together in groups and speak their language at will). Anyways, bottom line is that we Nigerians can and should put conscious effort into helping one another to get TRVs.

A little bit about life in Canada may help some of us on the thread make smart decisions about pursuing this whole thing. Because some are actually better of elsewhere, as not everyone's success is tied to Canada.

I very importantly have to say a very big thank you to a member of this forum, cocosmite. I reached out to him before I left Nigeria and he has been of tremendous help to me. Brother actually cooked and brought home cooked meal for me at the airport! Allowed me stay in his apartment for three days, and helped me settle in! Some angels live among us people. They breathe air like you and I (some even like girls with big bum-bum ) but they are nothing short of angels. I am really grateful.

So I guess we all catch the message, let's help and continue to help one another, keep the cycle going and all.

I school at MUN, if you have questions about the school please feel free to ask here and I will answer to the best of my knowledge.

Osemigho:
CGPA does not matter for masters admission. The GPA they care about is in your last two years of study. Do you have above 4.0 in your last two years of study? if yes, go for masters admission in mid to lower ranked schools.

You can get a student visa with Post Graduate Certificate but your story (previous education, experience, and proposed program) must be related and convincing.


You can get a Bachelor admission, at 200-400 level, with your Bachelor degree. However, you will need a compelling story for it as well.

If you are young and you have three years of experience (including NYSC), consider express entry to save yourself from the student visa headache.

Hello bro, please must the experience be in your field of study? Or it can be any work experience?


Thanks

Print an extra page where the employment history question is. If that isn’t enough print another one. When you’re done attach everything together.

Nice advice.... please how do i get started with finding a school for my wife to run her msc there? Your help will be appreciated

my advise is check a day to your submission for the latest form before you go

Determinedsoul:

Will soon apply for my visa. Last time I downloaded 2017 study permit form but was told at embassy to use 2018 version. Now it is 2019, does anyone know if d current one will be 2019 or I should just print out the 2018 version I have? I asked cos I couldn't verify as someone helped me in downloading the last one on his laptop.

Secondly, tax clearance cert I have expired on 31st Dec 2018 and my sponsor doesn't have another tax clearance form Hope I can still use that?

Tnx for your kindness and assistance.

Thanks man! Already working on that. I actually need to undergo my grad studies so I can actualize my other plans. It's the first step

Your application is very good. I think the VO just refused your application on purpose maybe coz your application was held for longtime. I believe if u apply again they will approve your application this time. Defer your admission and apply again. Don't give up yet and I wish you the best. Just be prayerful.
