Hello Family,
I was admitted to Stouffville college for(ACCA) in 2011 and also applied for visa same year,but I have a little delay in my visa process(Medical issue). I have to undergo a treatment of 18mths before I could be given visa(in sha Allah). Now,the treatment is almost finished( 15th mths gone,3 mths remaining) Allah is faithful :)
Along the line,I got some advice and experience about private colleges. I intend to cross from Stouffville college to another University in the Ontario province. I want to ask the house,if there is no implication or issues with this. I want to know if this is possible and would not have immigration backlog on my status.
I would be looking forward to informative and suggestive response from you guyz. Thanx in anticipation.
ciao.
Salaam!

Hello,

yes you can change your college even after joining it subject to your respective college's condition which will surely be mentioned in your LOA. there will be an administrative fee which is usually CAD 500 for a program ranging from CAD 10k to 15K a year.

Please read your Letter of Acceptance.

bro listen apply for visa on the same institute. Because already they were willing to give u visa on that but due to medical problem they asked you to do treatment. So already you have a good history with them. If you change it to university right now and apply for visa on university basis then it is a sudden change of plans and I don't reckon it. I think if u apply on acca basis then its fair enough for u to get visa and visa officer would have a mind without any doubts to issue u a visa. Don't risk it. They would think that the person is a genuine student of ACCA and has sticked to acca even after 18 months treatment.
How ever in the mean apply to a university of your choice to get admission in ur desired course as university admissions take some significant time. when u reach canada then go to university instead of college simple :)

Hello bro,
Thx for your response and advice. I am not re-applying for the visa,as my dox are still with them. I just need to get Doctor's report that I have completed my treatment and I am medically fit to study in Canada.
Back to my main topic,if I apply to University before I go to Canada,it does not mean I will use the admission letter to apply for visa. I only need to be smart. I do not want a delay in my academics and at the same time,I want a university education. I think the best bet for me is to apply to Univ when I get to Canada (in sha Allah)
Above all,I want to thank you guyz for throwing in your suggestion and advice. C u all in Canada.

Hello,

I would suggest, you change your college or uni when u reach in canada. as said ealier, it takes only a few CAD to do so... and it certianly doesn't impact your future prospect...though your consultant might say so as his commission will be lost which they get from colleges upon your fee payment...

cheers!

nops.. your college... though I have heard ( not really sure) that changing your course/college/Uni once you get visa and land in canada may impact your PR application. However, not a few, but many students practice this. So I think u can give it a try.
