Subbyshal:
Take your cloths, shoes, bags, wigs, extensions, makeup, skincare products, universal adapter, charger, phone case, powerbank, earplugs, drugs(like aboniki, paracetamol, vitamins, felvin/ibuprofen etc)

Food: No vegetables, No dairy, No meat, No gala, No ponmo.

But you can take Fish(make sure its dried well), seasoning, garri, poundo yam, snail, grinded pepper, if you are taking liquid( seal it well), Indomie etc.

Note: All these things can be bought over there, they are just more expensive or not palatable to us yet till we get used to it (like their milk, I hate it)

So you don't have to carry everything and you can also cargo to avoid excess luggage at the airport and just carry the things cargo won't be able to take.

Thank you so much... I will miss my indomie

Spectro:
My apologies for being somewhat abrasive with a previous post.

Subsequently, I will not be making posts on here again.

I wish everyone a great and uplifting news as they await the final decision on their applications.

No need to be upset concerning what happened. You both were airing out your opinion and I think it is a good thing. Please keep commenting on the platform as we are learning from you as well...

I do know that Canada visa is based on grace and luck. I am a living witness. What works for Man A may not work for Man B

Hello Royalty95,

This is what I will do: since it's urgent and if admission will be lost, I will apply to another DLI into same or similar study.

Then, I will print out my shared email correspondence with responsible office and/or save it as a document to my device (phone, Ipad etc).

To crown it all, with your boldness and confidence; this is what I will say if asked at the POE by a CBSA officer:

"My school couldn't defer my admission. I got a late response from IRCC and it created a setback to meet up with registration... (or as it may suit the sitiation).

So no other options than to seek for another admisison elsewhere, since I have already received my stamped passport back and since my travel itinerary has also been concluded; it was necessary that I must travel.

My study leave of approval was only issued along with the duration my previous admission, I am in the look out so I don't violate my employer's work policy of missed deadline resumption date. I really value my job..."

Keep both the new and old LOA in an accessible place when traveling, just in case either of both is asked.

n.b: this transcript will be as fast within few (or very few) minutes. It will almost come as a reflex question, so, be alert to catch it when it try to fly; if you intend to follow this advice.

Best of Luck

Thanks so much @just mellow
Thanks to @ lekiboboe for your input and advice also.
I sent a mail to the school requesting why I was refused admission and saying how I hv passed through the hurdle of getting a study visa. And now refused admission on my third trial.

Cut the long story short they gave me the admission. My portal was changed from refused to admitted

To God be the glory

Please am I post send this admission letter to IRCC via web form? And what’s the consequences of not doing that? Also while sending the updated admission letter what should I write as a short note?

Just got my passport back from VFS Lagos.
Used UPS (2-way for N3900) on my street (Victoria Island, Lagos) on 1/03/2021.
My passport got to VFS on 3/03/2021.
Started getting their notifications back and forth.
Passport came back today 16/03/2021 @1PM.
I didn't call or email VFS even once.
Everything went on smoothly.

KEEP THE HOPE ALIVE GUYS.

IT WILL DEFINITELY END IN PRAISE FOR ALL OF US.

I will drop my profile soon.

Congratulations travel plans begins

Lekiboboe:
You are welcome

There is no problem in doing a diverse program, the problem now is the Admission Committee of these schools accepting you for an I.T program. Based on your transcript, an academic background mismatch will be discovered which will make you ineligible for an I.T program.

Chemical Engineering will still be your best shot & its more diverse than Petroleum Engineering, and there are touches of I.T components in Chemical Engineering e.g Using Software modeling tools for simulation, Optimization etc.

You getting Admission at this time is 50/50, you av to visit the Website of the program in that school to know if they are still accepting application for Fall 2021

See the link below for

Masters in Chemical Engineering Programs (over 25 Programs)
https://www.universitystudy.ca/search-programs/?k=Chemical+Engineering&program_level_merged=Master%27s+degree&program_language=ENGLISH

Take your time & google them one after the other, check their Admission Requirements, tuition for international students etc., am sure u gonna see programs that are still accepting students for fall 2021.

If you are still interested in an I.T program, you are likely to get admission for a PG. Cert in I.T related programs, but for Masters in I.T. related programs, your chances to get admission is very low.

Thanks so much for the advice. God bless you abundantly

Lekiboboe:
I doubt if you can get admission for an I.T. related course, cos am assuming you studied Chemical Engineering or related course, if you apply for an I.T related course, the Admission Committee will base their decisions on your Transcript that you don't av an Academic Background in I.T. and there is a possible Chance of you not getting the Admission if you do this

The way out in my own opinion is, if you have work experience in I.T, the only option for u to go for you is to apply for a PG. Cert in I.T. , cos you might av the work experience ,if you don't, there are Chemical Engineering related courses in colleges you can go for if the one for universities ain't coming forth.


By the way,

- What did you study?

- Do you av any work experience or training certificate in I.T.?

- Do you av a 2.1?

Finally, I heard u must send your new admission letter to IRCC once you are changing to another DLI (School) - UNCONFIRMED,

I will suggest you let the gurus guide you on this

Thanks so much
I studied petroleum engineering and have a 2.1
I have working experience in the oil and gas sector. I just want to choose a course that’s diverse.

Please will I still get admission from a school for the fall term at this time
