Good day to you all, I was rejected visa sometime around June, my school is supposed to resume Sept 3, I have requested for deferral but I haven't heard anything from the school yet (the course might not be available for January).

Is it advisable for me to reapply for visa with the same UCL considering the fact that school resumes in about 3 weeks time.

Honest advice please.

Good morning house. Please I need your opinion, advice and suggestions on what decisions to take.

I am new to the forum and will also go and start reading from page one as well.

I graduated since 2006 with a 3rd class. Studied computer science. I started working since 2008 and I am currently the branch manager in one of the Lagos branch of the bank where I ve been working. I am 36years old and would appreciate your advice and suggestions on the below talk;

1. Is there any school that will offer me admission to either study a PGD or a masters based on my Bsc grade and work experience?

2. I have three kids, if I can get admission should I apply alone or with my husband and kids? Although my husband cannot join me in Canada at the moment due to work and businesses to run here in Nigeria.

3. What courses is advisable to apply for if PGD or MSc. As it’s over 10years I graduated and have not done any other course since graduation.

4. My kids are all USC, do I need to apply for them or they can join me in Canada if I apply alone?

Please your advice, opinion, suggestions and positive criticism will be well appreciated.

Thanks all

1. There are several schools that will offer you PGD or post graduate certificate related to Computer Science (depending on how high your 3rd class is too). Check Algonquin College, Lambton College, Conestoga College , Centennial College, Seneca College. If you are choosing a PGC, try to go for a 2 year program rather than a year program. Unfortunately, you cannot do an Msc with just a Bachelor's 3rd class in Canada.

2. If you can apply alone for the moment, it is better. That way you use your husband and kids as your home ties.

3. Courses related to Computer Science and your current job e.g. database development, I.T. Solutions, Web Development etc.

4. Sorry, I don't understand what you mean by USC but they can still join you later if you apply alone now.

one white old man i work with is always asking me when i will go back and help develope my country...its painful. A french guy here asked me why am in oil company abroad when we have oil in nigeria...that if france has half our oil he wont be here.
I understand why many young ppl want to leave....but i dont understand why older ppl doing well in naija will wanna come here permanently...i just wont ever get it. I mean u can visit often..but drop every and move here? Nawa. Let me drop it sha...to each his own.

It not only about Jobs or money, Nigeria is a very insecure country compared to Canada, more than 70% of Nigerians are either unemployed or underemployed,

I am based in the UK, but to be honest, I have never regretted my decision to leave,


No place like home , true!!!

Good morning all and gurus in the house. I find this thread helpful and wish to be a beneficiary of the joy and counsel shared here.

Please I have applied to study Digital Marketing coop at Toronto School of Management with document submitted and the school has offered me admission awaiting my payment of tuition and signing of invoice contract. It's a one year programme for January 2020 intake.

But,

I have been footdragging due to some issues that bothers on certificate and others.

I applied with my NCE certificate because it was easy/fast to get the transcript. I graduated from college of education in 2002(secretarial studies edu). Also, I have BSc in Secretarial Studies (2.2) from UNIBEN but didn't declare it cos it might raise a red flag i.e the VO might question why Diploma course with Bsc certificate? Again, getting transcript from UNIBEN is costly and takes ages hence might delay the admission.

I graduated in 2006, served 2007 and have worked with various firms but resigned July last year and since then have been selling medical equipment and other items online.

I am married with 3kids. My wife is medical Doctor, schooled in Ukraine, had my first son there but currently working as a contract staff at one LCDA Health Centre here in Lagos(employment has been herculean). We tried IELTS but wasn't successful.

I intend to use my co-in-law as a co-sponsor.

Sorry for the plenty write up. I really need advice from the gurus here regarding my chances.

Its a thing of personal choice: you can decide to fix the funds into a fx deposit or leave it liquidated in your account. But since you have the tuition fees ready, why not pay and have the receipt at hand before the deadline date to save time and other emotional drain, while your LE remains in the account.

Good luck!

Hello Mulberry,

The best program suitable to pursue will be a Graduate Diploma/Certificate that is related to your work experience which will be easier to convince the VO with genuine intentions of wanting to return to the academic classroom because of your years of practical activeness in such career field, irrespcetive of your previous studies in computer science which you have no practical work experience and the study gap in between might give rise to curious questions from the VO. Also, your age will not be a hindering factor for wanting to pursue a Graduate Diploma/Certificate as its a professional program.

To questions:

1. It depends on the course you want, as most schools offers different courses but related to your work experience. I think either one of the following course might be suitable; Human Resources Management, Cybersecurity Management, Accounting, Marketing, Global Management, Finance, Business Administrative etc for Graduate Diploma/Certificate.

You can check out schools like Memorial University, Conestoga College, McEwan University, Humble College, Fanshawe College.

Sometimes, your UG CGPA doesn't really count except for the last two (2) years, and writing a very constructive motivational letter or study focus/proposal in addition to your work experience etc can also earn you a Masters program with your UG CGPA but could be painstaking and tedious. A Graduate Diploma/Certificate is still the likely program.

2. This depends on your financial capacity and capability, and other available home ties (economic and social). If the kids are still young and there is the financial capacity to take them along, its best you do since your husband have no intention of moving any time soon. But there is no enough funds to cater for you all or to show to convince the VO of been financial sufficient, then apply alone.

Though moving with your kids is easy because they won't be needing a visa to Canada owing to their USC. So, you can apply alone and when its successful, you all can move together.

3 & 4 has been answered in 1& 2 respectively

All the best!

Okay then, the fix deposit will also be reasonable if you can show it to reflect to your financial advantage in your application.

Hello Tavict,

Your previous US refusal won't pose any harm to your Canadian visa application if you disclose it to the VO through the specified IMM form and in your SOP (if applicable). As for the travel history, travelling to Dubai won't have much or any significant in building your travel history. Instead of dashing your hard earn money to the rulers of Dubai, use the money to push your SP application. There are numerous applicants past of present that has gotten their approvals on fresh passports, so you ain't exempted if you package your application to meet IRCC SP requirement.

Good luck!

Even after liquidating it, you can still include the certificate to your application and "sweet-talk" the VO to see to your reasons for such move. No matter then length of an investment, for as long as it yield something, you can use that to make a suitable storyline in your SOP. Better still, you can just leave the funds in your account and close your eyes to see no temptations
