iwinosajack :
Prof Siga, I support u. I doubt if d airline will even sell ticket to d person if he/she does not hav US transit visa. I hav experienced it.
....Abi oo... I mean... must they transit through US.... abi if u no fly thru US, Canada no go give u permit... I bet u the flight sef go dey more expensive than others....
TravelRe: Travelling To Canada Part 4 by Siga: 5:06pm On Aug 11, 2013
GboyegaD: It isn't 100% confirmed but what I have always learnt is if you are transiting on an airline, then the airline would do the necessary to ensure you are allowed to. It is better we read through the US policies on transiting though.
....lailai... all the airline will possibly do is tell u to go secure transit visa... they wont help with transit .... I doubt that....besides.... is it a must to transit through US?

kjbobo: Oga Siga...to buttress your point...a friend said even if you make it down to the U.S you will be deported at the airport....one of the reasons given is their local isnt well demarcated from their international airport. ..so people can exit into the U.S.
@Oga Siga
Please I need your help on how to go about my accom issue..going to Lethbridge..but yet to meet anyone on forum going there.My school put a link of Lanlords and accom types off-campus with their numbers. How reliable is this or will you advise I get there first?Because even If get my TRV before 26th Aug resumption date...can't leave before then...need to tidy up some things. .thanks in anticipation of your response.
Expecting your response sir
... If they are on ur schools website... they are realiable... contact one and pay deposit... u are good

GboyegaD: No you don't have to. The only thing is you may not be able to go out of the airport. The good side of Seattle Tacoma is that is is big and busy so you can't be that bored while there.
....my brother... is this statement confirmed.... coming off the plane might require a visa ... I will advise u guys to stay away from flying through US.... u don't need to.... there are tonnes of flights that fly to Canada without transiting through US...ask ur airline if u need transit visa....they know better...but, why una dey look for wahala .... smh

HealthU.S. Reports Malaria Vaccine Breakthrough : Promises 100% Immunity by Siga(op): 7:41pm On Aug 08, 2013
(CNN) -- U.S. researchers say they've successfully tested a vaccine for malaria on a small group of volunteers and hope to conduct large-scale tests soon.

The vaccine involves multiple, intravenous injections of a weakened form of the disease, scientists from the National Institutes of Health, the Navy, Army and other organizations reported Thursday. Though the results were promising, more extensive field testing will be required, the researchers wrote.

The mosquito-borne tropical disease kills about 1 million people a year and sickens more than 200 million. There is no current vaccine.

dommakavelli: Thanks sir...but I don't know how to go about " a copy of few places am going to check"
those landlords are not even willing to talk to pple abroad.
I was dicussing abt sublet wit a student about 2 weeks ago, we agreed on price then she asked when will I come n check d house. Onece I told her am still in naija....the lady stopped talking to me even tho the room won't be available until september.



Btw, @ all, pls if you know any1 in Mun that can help pls, don't hesitate to tell me.
...Well...submit wat u have if u cant secure any room....its fair enough bro...

dommakavelli: I've collected my passport from VFS.. My medic came with a condition to pay tuition and boarding b4 22nd of august. Although, I've paid my full tuition b4 I applied n I included the receipt in my application.

My problem is I don't think I can secure an on campus accommodation within that 2 weeks even if I'll get a space cos I learnt the hostels are full already.

It is clearly written on d sch website that there's limited hostel accommodation for graduate student. Hence they advice grad student to organise an off campus accommodation.


Meanwhile, if I choose to go for an off campus accommodation, the landlords are not willing to talk to students that are still abroad because it is peak period( fall semester). N even if am lucky to get one within that 2 weeks. I don't think it is advisable to pay such amount of money to sum1 I've neva met as the school has strictly warned against paying to landlords without seeing the property.


However, this are my tots.

1. To write a letter to CDHC, explaining that d hostels r fully booked n I plan to stay off campus. N because d landlords prefer to speak to pple in Canny already, I plan to go a week or two weeks early n stay in d hotel till i find off campus accommodation of my taste.
I'll make a hotel reservation to show that I actually have a place to stay for those two weeks while I search for d accommodation.

2. I'll apply for an on-campus accommodation (if the sch accept my application) while they put me on d waiting list because am sure they won't allocate a room b4 22nd of august.

Then, I'll submit my application fee receipt, n a letter from the sch dat am on the waiting list.
Then, I'll book a 2-3 weeks hotel reservation.

What do you all think about this....please come to my aid @ mr siga, mr phemmy, earthgreeners gboyega, et all

My school is memorial university of newfoundland.
... Securing Hotel reservation is ok.... I have some that did the same.... she secured 1wk hotel reservation and u will attach a copy of few places u are going to check once there....also, attach a page from the school site that indicates that u need to see the property before paying and also the mail they sent to u that the school accommodation is full....
