Hi,
I am selected to study in NAIT. But the consultant who I hired says that I cannot apply for an Institute and get a visa from Sri Lanka. He says, it has to be a University unless I cannot apply. I am having a Degree in IT already and I applied for a Technical management degree in NAIT which runs for 2 years.

Why can't I apply for an Institute which has a course for 2 years? if I apply to a Uni, it takes 3 or 4 years to do such a course. But this particular course isn't even available in University of Alberta.

Please write to me if you have any idea of applying to an Institute over a university.

first congrats ! NIAT, along with SIAT, in Alberta is one of the best institute in Canada (even much better thn lots of other University!)

Second, your consultant is only trying to make your fool. Do not trust him ! Just visit Embassy website and download all forms and apply for the same. The whole process is very simple.

here we have many friends who holds University Degree but got visa for school level courses.

Thank you for your reply.
Are you a sri lankan? the consultant said now the embassy doesn't give visa to any srilankan who apply for an institute. He said they will just reject it with a different excuse. may be saying that you would not return to Sri Lanka again.

I don't know what I should do

What your agent is saying is based more on presumptions rather thn proved facts ! Most of the students got rejected because of the course selection which is not compatible with the prior studies, work , if any. And such things "almost always" happens at school/institute level (its rare of Universities to admit as such).


I am not a Lankan.

He said, Canadian embassy of Sri Lanka never approve a visa for institutes now. He said all who applied for colleges and institutes got rejected.

On this forum we all are students, so we won't say anything to misguide anyone. I strongly believe that your agent is trying to make business out of you. May be he isn't getting any monetary benefits from NIAT for your candidature.

I repeat once again, just visit CHC Lanka website and read each and every sentence. You shall come to know what rules say.

NAIT has a bachelors degree. I have a degree in IT and I am willing to follow the Bachelors in Technology Management. I cannot apply for a masters since my GPA is low. This is the best option I can have for the moment. This degree takes only 2 years and even to follow this degree, you need to have a degree in IT or a diploma in IT.

Do you think I have a possibility of getting a visa?
