Please anyone know how I can download COD wwii update without it stopping? The estimated time to download the update is 55 hours. No way the console doesn’t go off before then.

Good evening Honorable,

No I don't
Ok thanks. I’ve chosen to go for a more physics related course if I can get one, because for my home ties, all I got is my family members here..I’m the last child and I’m still single. My father and 3 other siblings all live here in Nigeria (all married and with kids), my oldest sister is a US citizen, and my mom a US PR. (She’ll be visiting naija next month)......I’m hoping this doesn’t go against me when the time comes.

The two disciplines (Physics & Computer Science) complement each other, with physics providing an analytic problem-solving outlook and basic understanding of nature, while computer science enhances the ability to make practical and marketable applications, in addition to having its own theoretical interest.

If you notice in Networking (N+), the units of of data (speed transfer & usage) is called KB - Kilobyte, GB - Gigabyte, Hertz etc. ,those are physics terminology

So in a nutshell, it won't raise a red flag, just find a way to do justice to that on your SOP when applying for VISA, cos a VISA OFFICER would want to know why you are going for a PG.Cert in Computer Science instead of a Physics related PG. Cert program which is best known to u based on the Computer Science program u wanna study

Good luck

Uwc, yes it's a good career path owing to the demand of Information Technology world wide.

Google the PG. Cert programs in that link I posted, check the courses done in each of the program and see how you can cross the I's and dot the T's,
cos u would likely get the Admission, but how u gonna convince a Visa Officer in your SOP when u wanna apply for ur Study Visa is the mountain u gotta climb by showing strong & cogent reasons for ur choice of program in Computer Science

Even someone who studied Microbiology as B.SC and want to do a PG. Cert in Microbiology will still have to show explain in his/her SOP " Why PG. Cert in Microbiology "

Thanks for the strong advice..I’ll definitely check them out. Please lastly, I’m having my transcripts evaluated by Wes for immigration purpose, can I use it also to apply or I’ll need to have it re-evaluated. My school haven’t sent the transcripts over to Wes yet, they only just finally started working on it today.

Sorry if I’m beginning to bother you with my too many questions, I just want to avoid any silly mistakes.

Please can anyone help shed light

Hi,

Let me assume you are a Graduate (B.SC/B.A or HND)

Have you gotten Admission?

If NO,

1) First thing you should do is to apply for a Program in a Skool (DLI - Designated Learning Institute in Canada) that offers PGWP (Post Graduate Work Permit), the Admission letter you get is part of the documents you gonna use to apply for a Study Visa

In applying for a Skool,
Make sure you show Career/Academic/Logical Progression most especially your Degree/Work Experience should be resonating with the Program you are going for.

So for instance,
If you studied Microbiology & you are going for Accounting , that's a Very Wrong Career Progression, but if you have years of Work Experience in Accounting even though you studied Microbiology, you can still go for it.

also,
note that you can't just apply for any program

U also gotta show Progression in the qualification of Program you are going for
e.g
- B.SC grad (2.1) going for a Masters
- B.SC grad (2.2) & HND graduate going for a PGD/PG. Cert/ Post Baccalaureate Diploma
- M.SC grad going for PH.D

If you have a 2.1 and you want to go for a PG. Cert, endeavor to show cogent reasons in a convincing manner in your SOP why you are going for a PG. Cert instead of a Masters Degree.

You can state your Course of Study, your grade, members in House might be able to suggest a Program you can go for that relates to either your Degree or Work Experience


2) Financial Readiness is very very important
- You need to have enough money that's gonna cater for your tuition (like $14,000CAD upward , depending on the tuition amount of the program) & compulsory One-year living Expenses ($10,00 CAD).

If you are to make use of a Sponsor, it should be either your Mum, Dad, Sibling or Uncle/Aunty who you bear same surname with and have known you way back in time & your Sponsor should have enough money to the extent he/she will still have substantial amount of money in his/her account even after sponsoring you

Also, both parties should avoid any form of Lump sum of Money in their Accounts

3) Show Strong Ties to Home country I.e things that can compel u to come back to Nigeria after your Studies e.g Your Parents, Wife/Husband & Kids (If Married), Landed Properties, Job, Position etc.
