Hai guys,

I got admission in Conestoga college for Applied manufacturing management for Jan 2017 intake. The credential is Ontario college graduate certificate (Post graduate).This is exactly how its written in the offer letter.

I applied for loan in Canara bank, in Kerala ,India.Everything was fine ,and the file was send to retail assets hub ,but AGM of that office says that this is just a certificate program, and as per IBA guidelines, they won't give a loan.
But many of my friends got loan to Ontario college graduate certificate programs,the difference being that in their offer letters its only mentioned as just POST GRADUATE or POST GRADUATE PROGRAM ,but in my offer letter it's written as Ontario college graduate certificate (Post Graduate), the only difference is that my college added a little more details.

Now what should I do,how can I prove that this is not just a certificate program but in the level of a post graduate diploma program.To whom should I complain against this injustice.

Luckily my friend was studying there at the same college and he went there twice but no use.But at the last time they gave an email id of international team leader or some post, I don't exactly remember his post.By saying he might understand my situation in a better way.

He was also an Indian, he understood my situation, and replied favourably by saying that this program is in the same level of a post graduate diploma,and he send the mail directly to the bank and also to myself from his official email id.

That was enough proof for the bank. Furthermore we put some political pressure.

All in all , when it was clear the loan was sanctioned.

For your case, pray , and find the root cause , be it the wording in offer letter or an attitude of a particular bank official.Then think of ways to positively overcome it , be it by documents or pressure, or even cases of other loans sanctioned previously. Anyway best of luck,and never lose hope,or try another bank,public or even private.Also keep me updated.

Good luck and may god be with you.

Hi, I'm currently facing this issue. Bank is asking for confirmation. Is there any way to overcome this.
