    Anyone applied a Student Permit from Philippines?

    @eagerly Agree with above and to add: Not sure if I was able to share this before, for me I decided to go for a grad cert. What I did was I included my reasons for not going for MA (I anticipated that they may question why I am taking a grad cert instead of MA given my solid work exp). Also...

    Anyone applied a Student Permit from Philippines?

    Yes, if you're okay with "small towns" (though it's a city and land size wise it's big) then you can consider this school plus compared to other universities this is slightly cheaper :)

    Haven't encountered a similar situation but this may help if you really couldn't get a police report, would it be possible for you to email the toronto and ottawa police dept--so that you will at least have documented proof of their response; that you tried obtaining one but unable to get it due...

    Can Wes Evaluation report be cited in Statement of purpose?? (For the purpose of study permit)

    It was the same level bachelors degree though it was tagged 3years and not 4years, pretty understandable though since we have a slightly different curriculum in my country. To add: as I remember when WES forwarded my result, if Im not mistaken they also forwarded it to ircc so regardless if i...

    Anyone applied a Student Permit from Philippines?

    Hi. My 2cents: it would be recommended for her to take a phd to show educ progression since if it would be a lower credential it might become a concern from the visa officer's perspective --given that studying in Canada is rather costly and pretty faraway it might not make sense to them if she...
