Especially Niaziwal,Mahmoodi,Ramzero , waiting for ur reply coz u have applied at that college ...
As, your already MBA finance you can go for ACCA plus you will exemption of minimum 3papers and maximum 7papers depend on your academics.
You can't go for Diploma as your already MBA make some sense on it . .
If, you really want to do ACCA as ACCA is not that much recognize in Canada because they prefer CGA and CA mostly.
CGA and ACCA signed a mutual agreement on the basis of you scratch my back I scratch yours but for that an ACCA or CGA must be member of there accountancy body means have 3years of relevant experience in the field of audit or finance. After, that you can claim CGA membership or ACCA membership.
You, can't apply for CGA directly as Canada High Commission strongly belief that if an applicant is applying for CGA or CA his/her intention is not come back which make some sense as well.
Now, for the college if your intention is to do ACCA from Canada than it's your choice whether you choice LSBF or Stoufville.
LSBF required 50% fees in advance to apply and send you Letter of Accpetance plus give you discount on bulk buying for example 3, 6, 9 or 14papers check on there website.Where else Stoufville required 250CND$ to 400CND$ payment in advance to send you Letter of Acceptance further payment on arrival and as far I know they don't give bulk discount on papers.
But, if you feel that you don't want to continue ACCA your intention is just to reach there and do CGA or CA than, Stouffville is the best option to apply as your not bound to pay them in advance and as soon you land swtich yourself to CGA. As once, you reach there you want be kicked at all ..
Now, the payments:
Per month expense is 1000CND$ x 12 =12,000$CND + 1year Education Fee + 4000CND$ for the save side "Minimum requirement" else it's upto you how much you can show. Furthermore, Canada High Commission accept your own person a/c statement , your father or your relative as well and Loan Letter is also acceptable.
ACCA session start in both colleges in February. If you want to apply in this session do it as soon as possible within this week. As, both the colleges are situated in Ontario and only one applicant received his medical call yet. Next session will be in September 2012 for that you can apply in January onwards.
