About New SDS program for India

[salome serrao]

If you have 6 band in each module in IELTS , and have paid 1 year tution fees , then you are eligible for SDS , and it has highest success rate among these three categories , and visa processing in SDS is 45 days...success rate in General and University is almost the same but a little higher in university category , visa processing time in university category is also less than general category.

Anyone who has experience wit this process and have got their visa quickly ?

Hi I got admission to University of new brunswick Saint john campus for MBA intake of Sept 18. I applied for visa under SDS on 27th June. My medical is also done. Any idea in how many days I will get visa?

Hi,

Good to know that you secured seat. Have you paid first year full tuition fees? How much amount you paid?

 

[Johnsnow 007]

Hey bro! Really? General category has minimum chance? Is it written on the website officially?
Because i have same issue. I have paid gic and 1 semester fee , i have 7.5 ielts and good finance . I am going to university of calgary for Bachelors in computer science after my 12th class .

I can't pay 2nd semester fee now because receipt will take time to come and i can't wait that long.

I guess i will be included in university category? What are my visa chances if i apply by end of this week?

..to satisfy your curiosity, read more on it on CIC website, I think you would have better understanding of it there

Shivani,
You can get student visa but before this just secure your seat in DLI approved college. Go for 2 year diploma program.

1. GIC is a "must have" , it strengthens your case a lot , moreover , in SDS , it is mendatory , and in general , it is not mendatory but you MUST pay a GIC.

2. You should apply under SDS obviously , as it has faster processing and requires less financial documents . But you need to pay 1 year fees and purchase GIC to be eligible for SDS.

3. It is upto you , if you can get your degree by attending 6 courses per year , then pay for 6 courses , but if completing all the 8 courses is mendatory for getting your degree , then you must pay for 8 courses . Check your offer letter , it should be written on it that how much fees you need to pay for 1st year.

Not a prob...apply again with all the required documents

 

[YAdwindersingh1951]

Tell us ur profilee and why did u get refused?

 

[anshul2710]

IMHO, you should apply for a 2 year program and get an offer letter from some University. Otherwise, your visa rejection chances increase with these short duration college programs. You mentioned you have close to 7 yrs work exp. VO will like to see your english proficiency as well. Anything less than 7 band again risk your chances. These are my personal opinions and I may be wrong. But for a moment put yourself in the shoes of VO and see your application from VO viewpoint.
