Thanks so much boss! I really appreciate....Have a wonderful Christmas celebration

Chocs:
As long as the money comes from his account, the transfer shows on his bank statement and the credit carries his name in your own bank statement, you should be fine. He should state it in his sponsorship letter that the living expenses (the actual amount should be mentioned) has been transferred to you.

I’m not knowledgeable enough to review your SOP unfortunately. Hopefully someone here can help you.

Best wishes

Thanks boss! I explained to my dad already that there's no need to add his company's bank statement, just as you advised. So now, d plan is to go with only his personal acct of 15m balance after living expenses has been transferred to my own account. Is it okay to apply within 1 week that the living expenses gets into my account? Please can you help review my SOP or refer me to someone. Thanks.

Chocs:
It’s good that the money be transferred to you from your sponsor’s account. The point I’m trying to make is that, make sure your sponsor has money left after paying your tuition and sending you the living expenses. They expect him to have enough left to care for him and his dependents. So the money you need should not be the exact your sponsor has, your sponsor should have more than you need. I hope you understand me.

Best wishes

Yes boss! A friend advised that the living expenses should be transferred to my own account. Or should I leave all in dad's account and submit a balance of like 16m?

Chocs:
If I got you correctly, you need 27k + 3k + 14k = 44k At bank rate that’s already 13 million Naira.

After paying $9k deposit, remaining tuition and fees = $27k
Return ticket. = $3k
Living expenses =$14k(My dad will put this in my personal acct 4.2million naira). My dad's bank statement will have a balance of 10m-11m

Chocs:
RxOtunba,

I’m a bit confused with your figures, if you can state your total available funds properly, I can analyze it better.

As for company account, I don’t know. I think generally people should avoid it. Except you’re trying to use it to prove something

Best wishes

My 16th months living expenses of $14k will be transferred into my personal account like a week before I submit my application and first semester $9k fees will be paid too. Remaining expenses will be like 9m, and I plan to submit my dad's personal acct with 10-11m balance. Should I also submit his company acct or only the personal is okay?

Chocs:
RxOtunba

Don’t forget to make provision for the 10,000 cad for living expenses and some extra left over money for your dad to take care of himself and his dependent.

Best wishes with your application

It's my dad sponsoring me and all fees will be in his personal account. So I don't need to add his company's bank statement right?

mcobex:
Yes, if the company is sponsoring you. If you dad is the only one sponsoring you and he has enough in his personal account to cover your studies and his other dependents then you have nothing to worry about. You need to show enough fund to cover your studies and also to run the company (if you are using a company SOA)

Please, does the balance in company account affect study visa application? I want to submit my dad's company and personal bank statements;

Company has a balance of 2m and 6months turnover of abt 150m(My dad is the sole signatory)

Personal account, which is the sponsorship account has 10m (required skool fees is 9m)...


Thanks.

Admission came thraaaaaaaa!!! Master of Medical Biotechnology, University of Windsor....... I won't mind anyone willing to guide/support me in d visa application process. I plan to apply around February, but preparing all my documents already.

*I've been denied US study visa a couple of times, same MS Biotechnology.

Okay, thanks!

Chukwubuikexo:
Your study leave letter might state “for the duration of his studies" rather than being specific, but 17 months is ok

Okay, thanks. Please my program is 16 months, should my study leave state exactly dat 16months or a bit longer, like 17months. Thanks.

Chukwubuikexo:
Study Leave letter shows you have a job to comeback to, this serves as a home tie and a short term goal (you can add that with your new certification, you would be mostly likely promoted upon your return)
Study leave with or without pay is entirely up o you

Hello house,

I presently work in a community pharmacy and I intend goin for MS biotechnology which is an industry related program. Considering the fact that I might not come back to that same job or might come back but not stay so long before I get a better job in the pharmaceutical industry. Which is better for me;

-Study Leave with pay or without pay?

-In my LoE, can I state that I will immediately come back to my present job since I have a study leave, then be in search of industry jobs in like xcene research, nimr e.t.c

What I am also thinking about is, if I eventually get to Canada via the study route, I can apply for express entry in my graduation month(if that will be possible), and include Canada education. With that and a good IELTS score, my CRS will be 500+ even without Canada work experience. Please advise accordingly, thanks.

Insanity:
Yes bro, you're on point. Thanks for your corrections.

Cheers!

Thanks!

Hello Insanity,

In contribition to what you've said, I believe you meant to say CIMA or BCS in IT. BCS would be preferable because of the fast pace to CIMA. If RxOtunba can score CLB 7 in TEF and retake IELTS by maxing out, 472 would be achievable. Another option if lucky is get NOI for PNP.

One love bro

Fall 2021, I'm expecting the admission, I jst sent in the documents that made dem reject me previously. Can we link up on whatsapp?

Insanity:
That's why you need to do a lot of research for your SOP. State figures, projections and the realistic goals you want to achieve in Nigeria with your Masters. Your post above is a good start, your major reason for choosing Windsor has to be your statement in parenthesis above, with weblink to the school startup page, just expand on it. You need to go deeper into the Pharm. industry in Nigeria.

This is what I did in my SOP, I am in the energy industry, I quoted projections from international organisations in Nigeria or abroad, with weblink to the articles, industry policies and upcoming projects. Anyone reading could see the future with me in it with my masters. I quoted the expected earnings in Naira and CAD for the future positions that I am gunning for if I achieve a foreign degree from Canada.

Also, I quoted lecturers at Windsor (Windsor is a member of an energy research institute) in the industry as the reason I am going to Windsor, with weblink to their profile, projects and website. My interest in them and what I hope to implement from the knowledge I will gain was also included.

Your SOP has to be very detailed like a paper, with references to your statements, such as documents you attached to your application and so forth. What ever you write on your SOP should have evidence, either attached to your application, or a weblink to the page etc.

Hello, with 8,7,7,7 that you recommended, my score is 429.

Amylew:
You need to calculate your listening with 8 at least. Only then can you have a rough idea of what your scores will be.
Try 8 7 7 7 first.
L R W S
Then work upwards to see the maximum and minimum scores.

In terms of career progression, I intend joining the Research & development dept of a multinational Pharma company in Nigeria, like Novartis or Pfizer. Then gather some experience over the nxt 7-10yrs and set up my own pharma company in Nigeria(Since the UWindsor program also trains extensively on how to start up and manage pharmaceutical companies. Will the visa officer not look at it that many drugs are not produced in Nigeria.

Insanity:
Your US Visa denials have no effect on your Canadian Study Permit Application, you must declare in your SP application that you were denied and state the dates in the given section to avoid 5year visa ban.

UWindsor is a good school and your sponsor transferring the money to your account is a good idea too. Just make it 4 months prior to your application, and he should explain the lodgement of the funds in his sponsorship letter.

You have a good profile and career progression fi your going for Masters(you didn't say), however, don't you think Express Entry will be better for you. Mid 20s, good occupation with experience. You can check your CRS points and weigh your options.

Let wait for the gurus to give more insight.

Goodluck!

Yes, thank you. I intend to declare it in my application and also state in my LOE that I got denied on the four occasions for reasons best known to the US, despite the fact that I went with authentic documents, and in many cases, none of my documents were evn checked, but I can't afford to give up on my dreams, so I decided to choose Canada, because I am sure I can get the same high level of education which is equivalent to that of the US.

Phatkayconcept:
USA visa denial doesn't have any direct impact on your Canada application. However, make sure you declare all rejection as appropriate.

On a practical note, USA visa requirement is different from that of Canada. So do yourself a great help by understanding and familiarizing yourself with the do's and don't of Canadian Study visa to enable you submit an approval worthy application.

Goodluck!

Using the CRS and hoping that I score at least 7.5 in all sections of IELTS, my score is 390 which I feel it's a bit low. Yes, my dad can put the money in my account for 4months. UWindsor requests a down payment of $4k but I'm thinking I should pay all d first semester tuition of about $10k. Is that good enough?

Suggestions on this please..

Hello gurus,
What are the chances of getting a Canadian study permit after US study visa has been denied four(4) times? I'm a genuine student but it seems US is just doing anyhow, so I wanna do the same biotechnology program at UWindsor for Fall 2021. Same sponsor(dad), but now, he intends to put all the fees in my account for about 2months before application, and I will still submit his personal and corporate bank statements.

-Presently in community pharmacy practice, and I intend to get a leave letter, although salary is jst around 90k. In my LOE, I plan to write that I will come back to my job while I search for better opportunities in multinationals like Novartis or Pfizer.

-Last US denial was earlier dis Nov 2020, applying to Canada for Fall 2021.

BSc Biochem 2017 and bin working since December 2018, datz where I work till date.

-Not married, No kids, in my mid 20's
