Hello house, i have read so many comments here, and did a research on a school I can apply to, yet I couldn't come up with any positive results as d fees are relatively high for accounting related courses, pls I ll like a suggestion on a school with low tuition fees that I can apply to and get admission as I ve bn a victim of an agent who collected so much money from me and later told me I wasn't given admission in all d 5 schools he applied to on my behalf. I graduated with a 2.2 in Bsc Accounting, 10 years working experience in a state internal revenue service. And can I go for a Pgd? Is it also possible I go for a course that is not related to accounting? I also have 2 years diploma in social work. Pls house I need help

Pls house I need your kind response on the following questions as I am new on this thread n have been following various comments made on study visa.
Having been in d pool of express entry for years without positive response probably base on age constraint I decided to go for study visa.

1 m 39years old with bsc accounting, married with 2kids I decided to engage an agent who claimed to have applied to five schools (colleges) for postgraduate diploma on my behalf with d hope of getting at least one admission out of the five schls.

My questions goes thus;
1.How long does it take for an admission letter to b out?
2. Considering my age, I heard it might b difficult for me to get my visa approved n that of my hubby as accompanied spouse, that they only approve younger pple. how true is dis?
3.The agent told me d resumption date for all d schls is September, is it possible for us to get our visa approved before this date?
4. What exactly are the steps to getting visa approved once admission letter is out
Pls I need your kind response to this questions as it has been a major concern to me.
Thank you.

I'm sorry to say this, but applications that appears in this manner are very tough to win a TRV APPROVAL in as much no matter what you present to the visa officer as your intent to study will be far-fetched and meaningless them.

I have been watching closely from the advices given to you by my bosses. But it will interest you to know that going for an ESL program as a pre-requisite course prior your enrollment into your academic program from an English speaking country Nigeria is never easy for such application to scale through the sight of a visa officer. Why do you want to spend so much on ESL program in Canada? Why travel all the way from Nigeria to Canada just to study ESL? Why can't you undertake an IELTS/TOEFL exam and save your self the stress of putting your application at risk?
Also, when going for an ESL program, you have to take into account that your sponsor needs to show funds excessively for both the ESL program, your first year undergraduate tuition and your living expenses which is hell lot of money.
The worst part of it all is that you will be issue a study permit based on only the length of the ESL program. Upon successful completion of the ESL you will then reapply for another study permit in Canada that will allow you to continue your undergraduate studies.... Which is another stress!

My advise to you is that, you apply to another university that will waive English proficiency requirement for you, or you sit for an IELTS/TOEFL exam and get this ESL requirement off your neck.
More so, DON'T apply for your visa with an 18 months program, you will be refused based on PURPOSE OF VISIT. Therefore, your best bet here is going for a direct undergraduate program since you are within the age bracket for a Bsc in Canada.

This is my advise!

All the best!
