OVERRELIGIOUSITY is one of the reasons why Nigeria is like this. We tend to b illogical and attribute help and problems for God to solve without working and striving for it. Nigerians believe by going to churches and mosques all their problems will b solved thereby making d country lack creativity, innovation and advancement.

We have more religious centres in almost all places with industries only in few selected states. We are the most religious yet the most corrupt cos we are bad with no human feeling. We believe we can get away with any bad deeds by visiting the religious centres and giving alms regularly and pray for forgiveness of God. The so called leader in d religious centre wil pray for u extremely thereby giving u self- contentment and self-worth.

The advanced country has churches and mosques but have many industries in all places. They are fair in judgement and believe in hard work and innovation to achieve success and seek God mercy. There is no difference btw poor and rich in terms of dressing, housing and neccessity things in life. They give their citizens welfare packages and benefits.

Is this not what religious country like Nigeria should do if actually u guys are sincere. Are we not rich enough? Corruption has killed us and even religious centres are propgating them. How can u accept million dollars as religious alms without ask even asking for its source. Majority of Nigerians are hypocrites. The bad leaders we have are reflection of the society.

Hello Surgee, London may not be the best place but I would prefer it by far than living in Toronto and much less in Montreal. As the say goes to each his own

I don't know much about Waterloo though it isn't very far from London. I always pass by on my way to Toronto. It is often considered twin cities with Kitchener and often be refered to as Kitchener-Waterloo. I work with a good number of people who commute daily from Kitchener-Waterloo to London.
I have head a lot about the University of Waterloo and it has a good reputation.
When you get to Waterloo, please update the thread.

Getting an apartment in London was very easy for me. From my perception, there is greater supply than demand in London as oppose to greater demand than supply in places like Toronto. You can go on kijiji to check apartments in London and get in touch with landlords via pohone or email.

As for the cost of preschool for children, Kindergarten is free. A child has to be 4 years old of age to start Kindergarten. Any child under 4 should be put in daycare. The cost of daycare may be around $50 per day. But, if you are a permanent resident, you can apply for financial assistance from the government.

Lol.. don't be bothered. I know it's kinda difficult waiting but you have to. we are all waiting, that should give you some patience. you're not in it alone.. Everyone here are.
Checking your cic account everyday has no negative impact on your application. It really doesn't matter to them

If there's anything to check in your cic account, there will first of all be a mail sent to your email address that there's a message in your cic account that you should go and check.

Cheers

It shall end in praise

I have a degree in Chemistry but I worked as a business development manager for 3 years in Nigeria. I applied for a 2 year PGD in Global business management in North Island College in 2014. I got a student visa and I finished my program last December. I have a good full time job today in Vancouver. YES MY DEAR ITS POSSIBLE TO GET YOUR VISA. Just prove that you have been in business since your graduation. Write a good SOP. I wrote that although I studied chemistry, I have been in the business environment since I graduated and I want to get the theoretical knowledge of what am doing and how it will help me in my career goal as a business analyst. I had a 2.2 in chemistry and it was difficult getting an admission for an MBA so I went for a PGD. I will go for an MBA after I get my PR.
Believe in your dream and package yourself. I ended up winning best international student award in business school and I also made the deans list.

DeCrystal1:
Is it upfront medical you want to do?
Or when did you apply

RealObserver:
I am... Are you a masters student?

yomcy2016:
Please I am trying to make contact with the Accra Immigration cos I believe they are the one in charge of study permit. Do the house not think one should confirm from them or something if this Foreign Reference/Bank Assurance whatever is been called is applicable to EVERYBODY seeking for a study permit and that the usual letter of reference/guarantee will not suffice?

Or am I just the only one thinking this way? Cos this reference tingin is driving me nut!!!

I even met with one of the officials of Zenith Bank who happens to be abreast of this foreign reference tingin but also of the view that if at all my request will fly that it will be from the headquarters cos there's a template that CBN bla bla bla....just the same story from first bank....

Austinpee4:
Funny enough, with the recent development, all applicant MUST have funds for study available. There will be no such thing as borrow anymore because an applicant either will show the embassy that money is already domiciled in canada or the bank will assure the embassy that funds are on deposit and will be transfered to canada.

So how will a bank give such assurances when kobo no dey the akant again after submission? The reality now is that person MUST get money for study in canada.

The prayer now go be say make the embassy send that mail to get assurance from the bank if person never pay or transfer any fees/funds. It's even more important now than medical mail because application still get refused after medical call but that recent mail from IRCC give more confidence of an approval if the bank assurances are given.
