What seems to be mostly acceptable to them is their own certs, or some international ones that the body overseeing the practice of the profession in Canada recognizes

@JesusDway.......thank u.

Pls house......
Can ones apprentice cert be less than 3years becos I read on cic (under my NOC) dat d apprentice cert musn't be less dan 3yrs. Also, if d cert isn't affiliated, will it be still recognised and acceptable.

JesusDWay:
Wow! You applied to Memorial? I got admitted there 2010 but, visa wasn't given. Would like to know your experience and the course you applied for and yes, regular mail is good enough. I think i got most of what they sent to me in 2weeks after the sending date.

yes i did. I chose geology. I wasnt given 4 masters so i applied 4 another 1st degree. I culdnt even apply 4my visa cos some1 i wanted 2use his statement disappointed me. I even have Uni of British Columbia admission. All dis were last yr n d yr b4. I dont intend given up 4dis canada sha. Must get dia by God's grace

If I were you I would pay for the $85 courier service as you would be sure of receiving it since it would be sent via recorded delivery such as UPS. Furthermore you'll get it on time. The $7 would be sent via normal delivery ie Nipost and trust me you do not want to use Nipost! I once sent a letter to a close friend via Nipost since I didn't have her mobile number but knew her address. The letter was sent in August from Lagos to PH and guess what? She received it in December of the following year! I'm not saying it would take that long if you opt for the $7 service but the safer option would be paying for the 85 quid one.

well, I saved myself of d $85. WES sent me a msg on d 23rd of dis month dat my letter will b sent 2my mailing address dat same day. Although,am yet 2receive it but i trust god I'll get it soon. I av received so many letter from canada without courier. Memorial university have sent series of letter to me n I get dem all.They will use also their canadian local post.

Greetings to all Elders and Ancestors in the house,

I just received a message from CIC that I am being considered for Ontario provincial nomination....
Please can some one help guide me on the right documents I should get ready with and the right steps to securing the PNP

Thanks in anticipation!!

don't know though but it might add 2ur point. Sorry, was it the federal skill dat u applied 4 or d EE and was ur points up to 400?

JesusDWay:
Are you sure DHL charges only #7,600, or you meant to type 17,600 cuz I know DHL services to be the costliest.

Anyway, I also advice most people sending transcripts to get it by hand(you may have to know someone who can help facilitate that) and send yourself so school don't delay you. Also, cuz WES usually still sends back to your school to verify the transcript came from them, the time it takes for school to reply also can further delay and I will say you request that school should provide an email on the cover letter for the transcript and indicate that WES can request for verification via the email. This ensures that the response can be faster and you won't have to spend another money to courier a paper response back to WES. Even if WES chooses not to do verification via the email(if they don't have such understanding with your school), you would at least have tried something that may help your processing get done faster. This addendum is for everyone who is yet to do theirs

No. Its #7600 n not d otherwise. Dats d amount i've bin paying 4courier for 2yrs now. I think dhl patnered with my alma mater. Gone are d days we collect our transcript ourselves, not anymore.

Kirri:
Hello ancestors

Hope y'all had a wonderful weekend
To my question
I would like to know how to send my transcript, do I collect and courier myself thru DHL or allow the school do it?
Plus what can I use in place of certificate since mine isn't ready yet?
Is there any Ladokite in the house that has gone thru this process?

JesusDway and other ancestors in the house come to my rescue

Thanks in anticipation

Greatest Ladokite,

Have you @all requested 4ur trancript from Lautech? Lautech no longer gives out transcript to graduates. School will on ur behalf, send it to the recipients address (through courier or Nipost, depending on ur choice, but I used DHL because it's faster and reliable, though expensive #7600).
Before you request for ur transcript, I will advise u apply to WES to get a ref no. U will then include ur ref no to WES address for school to send it on ur behalf. e.g

WES Reference No: 1234567
World Education Services
Attention: Documentation Centre
2 Carlton Street, Suite1400
Toronto, Ontario M5B 1J3.

U will also send academic request form(download it from WES site) to student affairs. U will fill part A(for applicant) and part B will be filled by school. When u request for ur trancript from school, u will tell them the academic request form(dat u downloaded from WES) should be sent together with ur transcript. Anyway, they will understand because I just recently did mine. Infact, my transcript was sent today and I've gotten my tracking no.

I used my certificate. I wanted to use my statement of result initially, but my uncle over there told me to use my certificate because it's being a while I graduated(2009). So I travelled to school last week to get my certificate. Alternatively, if ur certificate isn't ready, u can use ur statement of result. When did u finish for ur certificate not to have been ready?

lavivaavril:
Hi all, help me pls.

So I've applied for a transcript and I'm about to pay for WES online so I can send the ref number to the person processing the transcript for me. The thing is that I'm in lagos and she's in benin(whr my school is). Am I to send her a copy of my certificate to add in the application or am I to send that to WES separately? That would result in paying for courier twice but how did you guys process yours?

I guess u have 2send d copy of ur cert. urself, while ur school send alone, d trancript(with WES ref no on it). I already requested for my transcript(yet to be ready anyway) and i scanned my cert 2 my uncle in ontario to send 2 WES 4me so as 2save another courier cost. He has my WES ref no

Sorry house....

I meant speaking. That's tension 4 u ooo (lolll).
But what if u were asked questions u don't generally have any idea about, what should u do?

Hello house......

Could anyone pls share his/her IELTS listening skill interview with the examiner. Am tensed.....youknow.

@JesusDway
Thanks.

@JesusDway,

Am neither for Buhari nor Jonathan cos politicians are flocks of d same feathers, but I still have some facts to share

1) That Buhari iƧ̷̜̩̌̋ too old to rule *NG* iƧ̷̜̩̌̋ what I disagree with. How old was Mandela when he became the president of South Africa?

2) I watched Buhari's documentary on ait but I must sincerely tell Ɣ☺ΰ am not moved an inch. As far as am concerned, it depends on our level of understanding. Buhari's regime iƧ̷̜̩̌̋ not the worst in Nigeria. If documentary about Abacha and 'almighty IBB' should be shown 2nigerians, ε̲̣̣̣̥ will all weep. Moreover, military govern with decree, while civilian goes 4 constitution. If Buhari should win, I don't think he will rule *NG* with military decree when he has constitution 2follow. After all, Obasanjo never ruled us with a decree when he became d president despite d fact that he had once been a military head of state.

3) To have a civilian 2 single handedly govern *NG* for 10 consecutive years iƧ̷̜̩̌̋ not too good (especially in *NG* when some people are above d law). The reason iƧ̷̜̩̌̋ because he might have had S̶̲̥̅Ơ̴̴̴̴̴̴͡ many atrocities he committed in which he will eventually go away with them cos he has S̶̲̥̅Ơ̴̴̴̴̴̴͡ many years that gave him d opportunity to cover up his sins. Secondly, a 10 year civilian rule iƧ̷̜̩̌̋ not that different from a 3 term rule. Am not against Jonathan though, but if he won dis election, believe me or not, Jonathan has indirectly created a 3rd term agenda because the presidents after him will definitely also lobby for that, claiming if a man had ruled for 10years, there iƧ̷̜̩̌̋ nothing stopping them also to rule for 12yrs.

4) Finally, Nigerians, pls don't allow all these politicians to come in between us because they are all d same. I can see it's already causing disunity among us even among people of the same faith. When their aims have been achieved, ε̲̣̣̣̥ will be forgotten, S̶̲̥̅Ơ̴̴̴̴̴̴͡ Ђό̲̣̣̣̥W̶̲̥̅̊ about d enemity they would have created among Nigerians. They all have d same ambition 'POWER' and once they achieve it, ε̲̣̣̣̥ will hardly be remembered, S̶̲̥̅Ơ̴̴̴̴̴̴͡ ε̲̣̣̣̥ must be wise and never allow dis selfish politicians to divide us.

Cufs: Thanks slimsyetty, I'll work on it again...but do you think the issue is that I'm going for another bsc degree? Cos I know a lot of people that got the visa and are still going for a 2nd bsc degree..just wondering

Of course yes! Ɣ☺ΰ can go 4 a 2nd b.sc degree but dia are several factors d VO has 2consider like age.......among many others(though favour can overule all dat cos I believe in miracles). Dats y Ɣ☺ΰ av 2write a convincing sop.
I'm also in Ūя̲̲̅ shoes. MUN gave me an undergraduate admission 4dis fall but wasn't given 4my m.sc. I av my 1st degree since 2009 in applied physics S̶̲̥̅Ơ̴̴̴̴̴̴͡ I intend 2use d undergrad offer 2study geophysics(am now being discouraged 2go 4 anoda b.sc, considerin my age). Am yet 2apply 4my trv wit dat LOA cos am still trying 2figure out Gods purpose on dis canadian stuffs. Dia are several options Ɣ☺ΰ can also try like PGD aπϑ d federal skilled worker as some1 had suggested but dat 1 takes a longer period aπϑ canadian govt change dia package on dat often aπϑ often. I pray God will guide Ɣ☺ΰ in woteva decision Ɣ☺ΰ will make...... All d best!

@cufs....
I read ur sop on 1 of d quotes. I hardly comment on dis forum but I would like 2share my opinion on it
Ur sop is quite nice but not enof. 2me, it's as if u are telin d VO dat u don't even know wot u are goin 4. 2nd degree is M.sc while B.sc is 1st degree, so, goin 4anoda B.sc means u are goin 4 a 2nd bachelor degree. While U may not b called 4an interview, ur sop must fill in d gap by answering all d questions d VO might want 2know like...
Y going 4 a 2nd bachelor degree, is ur 1st degree related 2d 2nd bachelor degree u want 2go 4, if yes, how, d grade of ur 1st degree, y u chose d course n dat school, what steps av u taken 2ensure u will perform better, y u dont want 2study dat course in Nigeria, y Canada, what benefit will d course bring 2U n ur country, what u intend doing after coming back (u didnt even metion u will b coming back n dats what they hate), home tie n lots more. Include copies of ur certificate, nysc, waec...as proof of 1st degree n work on ur introduction. Gudluck as u refire

pls house.......
is it compulsory to pay d tuition fee for online application or not

missbon: U cant assume without trying, I advice u apply first before concluding dat ur chances are slim. Do not assume based on what is wrriten on the site. Several peeps got admitted into courses they have no background in. So don't limit urself. Pgd is the easy way to go instead of redoing another bachelors. It saves u from visa problems and it also adds to ur previous degree. It can also help u advance for masters so pls do wat works for ur career best.

*big huuuuuug* will try d GIS. Tenks

ChriGo: ....The fact the you're Slim doesn't mean your chances to any thing you wana do are slim too .....You'll get admitted for PGD in GIS....colleges accept 2:2 .....

Lol.... But am no longer slim anyway. Dats an ID since 2002.

yomiraheem: /////

From experiences on this thread I think its difficult to convince a VO of ur genuine intentions going for a lesser program after ur 1st degree....u may need to consider dat...y wud a bsc holder wanna go for bsc again...unless u'r changing field entirely..it may work...I wud advise u go a pgd related to ur 1st degree....seriously we need to appreciate our 1st degrees guys...no be small thing, so I think we shud always progress unless there reliable reasons to divert....

As regards d PR thing after a longer stay studying, I believe there are always ways to get ur PR even after a 1yr program in canada...I'm not in canada yet, I don't know how easy or how it works, but I believe there will be a way...a lot of us desire this PR thing and we will get by Gods grace.

Maybe the house shud even let's talk a little about getting permanent residence after ones pgd or msc..especially if na 1yr. Enough of college and uni discussion. Deeply in my heart I know my own reason for choosing college instead of uni..u shud know urs too.

Cheers!

-̶̶•-̶̶•̸Ϟ•̸Thank You•̸Ϟ•̸-̶̶•-̶ I also don't av d intention of going 4anoda bsc. I av not bin given grad admission was y I tried d undergrad aπϑ it worked. Besides, my 1st degree iƧ̷̜̩̌̋ applied physics aπϑ applied MUN gave M̶̲̅ε̲̣̣̣̥ geophysics..... Dats entirely different

missbon: I guess ur uncle knows what's best for you. I would have adviced u differently but I guess u have ur uncle to guide you. I wish ya the best

@misbon: as regard 2our last discussion concerning d PGD in GIS in Canada, I realised I didnt do any GIS related course(s) during my undergrad program. Don't Ɣ☺ΰ tink my chances of being admitted will be slim

[quote author=missbon]I guess ur uncle knows what's best for you. I would have adviced u differently but I guess u have ur uncle to guide you. I wish ya the best [/quot

I say a big -̶̶•-̶̶•̸Ϟ•̸Thank You•̸Ϟ•̸-̶̶•-̶ 2those dat answered my initial questn.

Pls house, d issue iƧ̷̜̩̌̋ dis.....

I applied 4MUN graduate program (geophysics precisely) but I wasn't given admission. I just tried d undergraduate program aπϑ I was admitted. Am a 1st degree holder since 2009 in applied Physics(2.2). Some1 now suggested I shldnt go 4dat undgergrad program, rather, I shld do a year PGD in applied geophysics @ FUTA b4 applying 4anoda Msc program in Canada cos it could boost my chances of being admitted. No schools in Canada offers PGD in Geophysics. An uncle residing in Canada now got mad @me when he heard of my new plans of doing PGD @ FUTA firstly b4 applying 4anoda Msc program. He told me d undergrad prog iƧ̷̜̩̌̋ better because of d duratn which will be easier 4me 2settle down compared 2yrs M.sc. S̶̲̥̅Ơ̴̴̴̴̴̴͡ he OREDRED me to apply 4my TRV wit d undergrad admission. Honestly, am seriously confused was y I decided 2come here 4ur opinions. -̶̶•-̶̶•̸Ϟ•̸Thank You•̸Ϟ•̸-̶̶•-̶

Suggestions please!
MUN gave me an undergraduate admission for dis fall and I have received my LOA since may. Sometin came up S̶̲̥̅Ơ̴̴̴̴̴̴͡ I couldnt apply for TRV. I'm now ready 2apply, hope its not 2late 2apply 4 TRV for sept 3 resumptn.
