Long Post Alert!!!

Big thanks to you guys for the contributions on my request for help with my Acrobat adobe javascript, searched but couldn't find your comments anymore. I was able to solve my probelm by filling the forms at a cyber cafe, saved it to my devise and uploaded from my laptop.

I also did read a lot of comments about the 1/3 year PGWP and I'm really impressed at the amount of information you guys are putting out to help other people with their quest, big kudos to you all! As a result of the info I now have, I intend to change my school of study even though I have paid my tuition deposit and submitted my study permit application.

I applied to Saskpoly because of it's international students pathway,( all you need is that you have six months work experience in your field of study to apply for SINP) and got the admission in Business Accountancy for winter semester. Like someone mentioned during the course of the argument; no one saw Covid 19 come and those who are got the 1year PGWP this year would really need extra grace to scale through this period.

Now the thing is, I have decided to apply to another school with a 2 year PGD so I can get a 3 year PGWP and save myself the impending hassle then ask for a refund from Saskpoly after my study visa is approved.

Please my people I need your help, I want to do a financial management PGD at a school in British Columbia but the tuition fees I'm seeing is too high. Please does anyone know of anyone that is less expensive still in BC or any other province.

PS: I like British Columbia just because of its weather.

Thanks in advance.

Please my fellow nairalanders is it compulsory that you must pay a deposit to the university before you apply for your study permit? Please your candid reply will really help me. Thank you.
it’s not compulsory you do so
People do it to show financial capability to the VO or your school tells you to pay a tuition deposit
Paying your fees doesn’t guarantee you the visa mind you
Also check with your school return policy if you intend to do so.

Check the link below for schools offering Masters in Petroleum Engineering

Visit the link below for schools offering Masters in Chemical Engineering
https://www.universitystudy.ca/search-programs/?k=Chemical+Engineering&program_level_merged=Master%27s+degree&program_language=ENGLISH

Visit the link below for some useful tips that can be helpful in your Masters Admission
https://www.nairaland.com/5818588/canadian-student-visa-thread-part/111

To your questions

1) Do make a research on the school websites to know their tuition fee for international students, you might see a quite cheap one

2) it can be very competitive, cos of other students from other countries who might have an higher CGPA, publication etc. than yours, you will need stand-out in your application processing for a Masters (Most esp. if a Cover Letter or Statement of Interest is required)

3) U don't need an English Requirement (u are exempted), cos you come from an English Speaking Country (Nigeria), and from your Primary, and High Sch days to University Level, ur medium of instruction was English all through. Alternatively, u can get a Letter of Confirmation of English language proficiency from the school u graduated from (Visit or Contact ur School Registrar

4) Guess you will need to make a researcher on that yourself , or probably you can make enquiry from members in house about the province your sch. of interest is located.

Thanks. Will just do as you said

The roles are in Skill Level C category which are not eligible for CEC ( canada experience class) so you cant use it to apply for PR. For your second question, it is not compulsory to have an IT background, so far you can demonstrate you have a previous work experience working as a CSR, you will be fine. Pardon me for the late response.

emeify1:
Does the CSR/ Advisor roles qualify for PR,are they NOC B jobs and is the employer ready to give the necessary letter with the job duties to obtain PR? Also, doe the tech advisor, does it matter if the person does not have IT background as required by the NOC?

Re: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 17 by Ayoola03(f): 3:35am On Aug 17, 2020
Do you know you can increase your CRS score by obtaining a BCS certificate IT that gives you additional 33 points? You should exhaust all options before concluding. Again, was your BSc background in medical related fields or you are considering going for undergraduate degree. If not, you cant get admitted directly into nursing which just any background. Medical line is highly regulated in Canada therefore their strict process.



rvpbae:
Good afternoon everyone. I am new here and please I need guidance.

I am 30. I hold a masters degree( PT), concluded last year. My gp is 3.8

My bsc is a 2.2 , not a good result to be honest. Graduated 2011, started working 2013 but stopped working 2015.

I'm married with two kids.

My husband runs his own business, duly registered and pays tax, has tax clearance and all. He will be the sponsor.

Our aim is to migrate to Canada as a family. I was following the Express entry thread but my score is really low.

So now we decided to try the school route. I honestly dont know where to start from and need help please.

With my bsc, I know I can't get admission to study for another masters over there.

Please what do you suggest I do?

I need help with university suggestions( reasonable school rates), schools that will make us eligible to apply for PR, location ideal for family. My kids are less than 4yrs, so I know they wont be starting school yet.

What is the first step to take? My transcript is being evaluated by WES at the moment. I know I have to write ielts, I have been practicing and will take the exam next month.

I intend to study nursing. I have a science background, bsc in microbiology but masters was in a professional field.

If there's a link where I can read up on, pls paste as well. I await your responses. Please help. Thanks

Thank you for this information it will really help, I wanted to apply for my under graduate program in the university of Regina. I completed the application and I am been told to pay the application fee before they can process my application. But I didn’t saw anywhere in the portal where I am to post my documents because they didn’t ask of it. Is it the way they do it there?

Upon submitting your application on the University of Regina undergraduate platform, you will receive an email correspondence acknowledging the receipt of your application. You will be required to provide the following documents via email in order to complete the admission process:

1. Application fee of $100.00 Canadian which will be paid via flywire corporation while indicating your student ID.
2. High School Transcript(s) (which is your WAEC print out copy, original scanned certificate and scratch PIN).
3. A copy of your int'l passport.
4. If you have not been in school for over 2 years please briefly describe (a sentence or two is sufficient) what you have been doing since graduation.


Please send all documents in PDF format to international.admissions@uregina.ca.

Please note that applications generally take about 4 weeks to complete (once all the required documents have been received).



Let me know if you have any other questions.



It will end in praise.

It is true that the University of Manitoba is very easy to get without much stress for an undergraduate degree. However, the institution will not offer you a straightforward admission into your choice of program. Generally, you will be given an admission into the University 1 program which will be a prerequisite into your enrollment to your main program. Most times it's a bit dicey to explain to the visa officer about your intent to study and type of program/degree.

With that being said, the University of Regina will grant you a direct admission into a Bachelor's program which gives you the opportunity to be able to explain to the visa officer about your interest in pursuing the program in Canada. To me, this is much more better than a University 1 program. In all, applicants do get approval with it, depending on your explanation to the VO about the prerequisite program.

Please note that the insightful information I share here is based on my first-hand experiences with several institutions both at the undergraduate and postgraduate level.

dayjeee:

Thank you sir.
The reason why I decided I want to go for the diploma course is because of the fee, its cheaper than PGD/C
Secondly, most of the PGD/C i have seen are 1year program, and I want a 2year program, in order to get 2 to 3 years PGWP, and that's is what most diploma offer.

The reason I wanted to go for management related courses is because it will be a little bit easier to secure a job in a qualified NOC if i want to apply for PR. Moreso, I have more than 2 years work experience as a CSO in a financial institution.

I will still appreciate your contribution and direction. Thank you

I have seen so many people give you wonderful suggestions and I completely agree with all they have told you.

Just to add, you can consider Business analysis, even if it is a 1 year PGC and close to graduation, you can try applying for jobs such as customer service analysts, customer support analyst, Global service support analyst and so forth.

If you want 3 years PGWP, you can apply for another 1 year PGC in Data analysis/science.

In these days of organizations employing individuals with T shaped skills, having a combination of Business and Data analysis skills alongside your previous experience in customer service is a big advantage for you.

Thank you very much for this info, I really appreciate it. But I don’t know how often do they give admissions to international student and what my chances might be since I am applying for my undergraduate program. I need some more hint on that because I know you already applied for someone through Regina university before, there are more I will love to know about it. Thank you

Good Morning,
Please, I need help.
Can I use the same upfront medical I got from study visa for PR (It states student on it)? I did it last month(July). Has anybody done this?


http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/tools/medic/assess/using.asp

----------------------------------------
A medical assessment is interchangeable and can be used for other immigration categories, unless the medical officer imposed one of the following limitations on the assessment:

The most commonly used limitations are:

“Assessed as excessive demand exempt only”. A new immigration medical examination is required if the applicant applies under an immigration category that is no longer excessive demand exempt (e.g. the foreign national applied as sponsored spouse (FC-1) and now applies as Federal Skilled Worker)
“Assessed as Temporary Resident only”. A new immigration medical examination is required if the applicant applies for permanent resident status or extend his or her stay in Canada.
