Hi saurabh,
Forget about consultancy. if your college says admission requirement of english proficency language is 6.5 then consultant cant do anything.
Remember your college will issue an admission letter not consultant. it will be better if you mail to your college for admission requirement.

It would be better to achieve atleast 6.5 bands not less than 6 in each section for visa chances.

best of luck

Hi,

Don't get fooled by consultancies. Try to do some research on your own too. Don't believe blindly whatever the consultancies say and claim. It's CLEARLY mentioned in Centennial college website, (http://www.centennialcollege.ca/admissions/englishproficiency) that for PG certificate/ Ontario Graduate courses, you need minimum overall 6.5, with no band score less than 6.0 . This is a STANDARD requirement and no consultancy can MANAGE to bend this rule.

Infact, you should keep your distance from such consultancies and ONLY trust on the best/at the top consultants.
 
hi bt tell me wot if i manage t get the offer letter with 6 bands .. wot are my chances if college is giving me offer letter .. with bands that wot the prblm embassy willl b having regarding this issue .. as i m ful filling the requiremnt of spp which is 6 bands
 
HI saurabh,
only fulfilling spp visa requirement will not give u fruitful result.
GENERAL rule for ielts in spp college is
(1) diploma-min. overall 6.0
(2)P.G.Diploma - min. 6.5 not less than 6.0 in each section.
 
bt dear wot if i get the offer letter from college ...
 
with my current ielts score ...

In that case, the college has clearly made an exception in it's English proficiency requirements by giving you an offer letter. R u sure it's not conditional, asking you to increase your IELTS score or something like that?
Often college may give offer letter, but when applying for visa, the CHC will most probably see the low IELTS score in not so positive picture. It's always good to have better IELTS score so as to strengthen your overall profile. Go ahead..and apply..let's see what happens... Hope for the best.

hey,
you need at least 6 bands in each section of the IELTS, you have 5.5 in reading, its will cause problem

Hi,

1. You should ask what if I get the refusal letter from the CHC. Offer letter/Letter of acceptance does NOT mean a visa approval.
 
hi enfield ..

wot u mean ur visa got rejcted wud u plzz let me knw abt the .. reasons they gave u ...

nd bro i m having 3 years of expereince .. nd the course i have selectes is quite adjusted with my profile ...paralegal .. after law

HI saurabh,
its upto you to drop file in embassy with 5.5 in reading section.

Either you can ignore to enfieled and others and go ahead with 5.5. band in reading, or you can improve it aleast to 6. its upto you.

Hi,

1. Are you sure if I claimed about your visa refusal. Read again my last post. May not be right for you to think 'Letter of Offer' = 'Visa approval'.
2. You do NOT need to be a law graduate to study a paralegal course. Most likely, it's a 'Diploma' level course.
 
enfield chk on there site paralegal is a graduate certificate ...

nd they demand university degree of work exp in legal field .. how can u suggest wrong advices to the ppl on networking site ...cum on dude ...
