Omonjoe: No...I ws not asked for supervisors name only my research interests which they adviced it should be related to one of dia lecturer's research interest

Omonjoe: Have u started ur application? were u asked to fill nd submit pre-qualification form?

Habeeb521: NFL wit wat d meaning off that cus I try to search for it it keeps bringing out National football. League . If so I Wanda wat engineering student r naw doing in national league
Lolz

einsteino: Wow please i am also looking forward to an msc program in U of A. but in civil engineering

standupguy: Changing institutions: your responsibility
If you are thinking about changing your institution or your program, you need to ensure that you continue to meet the conditions of your study permit, as well as the conditions that allow you to work, should you wish to work during your studies.

PlayPays: I don't understand the bolded but one thing I know about the new rule since June 1st is that a change of school would have to be granted by cic which means u'll have to convince em why you wna change after you receive ur permit with another school. The common thing is to finish from one school then move to another province for better things.

matic12: @ Surgee;
@ Optimall;

I'v replied your PM'S.

@Surgee, how will i send you a copy? Your email wasn't disclosed. Am i just to reply to the received email, or i will be notified about how to communicate with you?


Am sorry; kind of not used to chatty communication means.

matic12: @ Omonjoe; i'll definitely send to your email, the SOP i used to win the heart of my supervisor at USask before midnight. Expecting you to put some touches into it.

Favor shall be yours in Christ peerless name.

akanni: @siga, wetin u advise? My application has not yet been treated and my school mandated i be around for orientation program, this wednesday, while classes starts on monday.My advisor said if i don't make orientation and start of class,i will be removed from my registered courses.Anyway, my question now is if i have been removed from my courses and they ask me to go for medicals and thereafter submit my passport for the visa, how do i handle this especially at POE?

akanni: sorry about that, you will need to look at the reasons for refusal though and cover those grounds before reapplying.What date did you submit your application by the way?If you can share those reasons, some of us could assist you with what you need to put right.

einsteino: Lol I have to correct u there, am not rili a senior engineer. Am a graduate engineer with barely a year experience. I just happen to be in a consultancy firm that always has a plethora of jobs, hence I managed to garner much experience in little time coupled with the fact that my boss is more of a leader and mentor than a boss.


This explains why I dont know how to ask him for a study leave, I feel like the prodigal son running away from his father.

experience is not exactly a function of time, it is a function of exposure and how much you have been able to achieve. Am saying this as an encouragement because I remember when I started, someone in my firm told me I was too young and was a blank. Today when that someone runs into problems in his project, I often end up being the one who solves it. so to me the most important thing is ur resilience at the face of challenges, with it you would have a steep learning curve. everyone started as a blank

einsteino: Honestly I am still very much confused. My job has exposed me to all aspects of civil engr and I am finding it hard to pick one over another. I wish I could just do all in one package as in an M.civil as some countries do. Nonetheless, I will choose either transportation engr, structural engr or geotech engr.

einsteino: University of alberta doesnt require IELTS for nigerians. It is on their site. Though I cant tell if the embassy wouldnt demand for it

einsteino: Pls I have a B.Engr Civil Engineering from the univerity of Nigeria(second class upper) and intend to do an M.Eng at university of alberta. I also have the intention of getting a job in canada after my studies. I was told by someone that employers are reluctant to employ someone who does not have a first degree from their school(in this case canadian sch) irrespective of the M.eng that was gotten from their sch? Pls is this true?

benjeeade: yes, it will not expire, if you're not using it on the first day, it will added on the following day making 4mb, so if you are continue like that, you'll get 1GB

nickyjeff: Its not jhor. 3Gb in 1hr, datz fast.

manmeta: You may need to assess yourself if a year experience will contribute in fetching you the minimum 60 points. Pls check. Otherwise, if you're bent on migrating, you may have to consider the student visa route.

manmeta: Philosophically speaking, life only mirrors what you present to it.

If you're trying to claim experience in IT, I believe ACS will be the relevant assessing body. To be sincere, (if I'm correct) most assessors will first reckon with your first degree rather than your subsequent ones.

My example: I'm an Engineer with a BSc in my field and a MSc in a sector of that field. Engineers Australia PRIMARILY assessed me on my BSc and an appendage assessment was also given to my MSc even though I studied it abroad. There are three levels you may claim from Engineers Australia: 1. Engineering Manager. 2. Professional Engineer 3. Engineering Technician. I knew my qualifications and years off experience suit a Professional Engineer. I applied for that and I got it. As I continue to practise here, in 10 to 15 years from now, I qualify to be a Engineering Manager (the highest level). See.

If I were you, I will still present my BSc in History & Strategic studies but when I'm writing the report for my application, I'll base my application PRIMARILY on my CISCO, MITP, etc certificates and MSc and seek to be assessed for relevant level. In my own case, say I have an HND, I'd have gone for Engineering Technician. Once I arrive here, I'd work it up from there to the highest level I desire.

Did you get the drift?

STUNTS007: Melbourne ...here I come.Just got a grant on my visa application,am soo excited.@Fikzy I sent u a mail,pls check ur box let's hook up.
