[PLEASE HELP, REALLY FRUSTRATED!!] Advice for study permit application

[jckailun]

Hello all my friends here on the forum,

I am wondering how I should write my study plan - probably the most frustrating part of applying for a study permit to most of us. I know what I should include in my essay though, but what is the usual length of a study plan? I've been writing in a very detailed way, and it's now around 1300 words - 3 full pages. Will this be too lengthy? I've outlined

• my background;
• why I want to do the programme to which I'm admitted, what it can offer me to excel;
• my lifetime career goal, and how this degree will help me to achieve it;
• what my prospect back home will be getting the degree;
• my intention to return home immediately after the studies, since I need to take care of my parents
• why I wish to study in Canada but not in where I'm from;
• the comparison between similar programmes of study in my country and those in Canada - why the Canadian one stood out while those back home didn't; and
  
• my family ties in where I'm from: my parents and relatives live there, and I have a fully established network of friends back home (I'm just a fresh university graduate - I don't have properties in my name, nor a wife or a child).

Do these points suffice? If not, what else should I include? Or what can I exclude to make it shorter?
How did you guys write your study plan? Sincerely I appreciate your feedback and advice, and I look forward to hearing from you.

This sounds OK. I have about 1600 words but 2 pages (I guess my font is small!). I've emphasized the sentences that matter by making them bold.

Your outline sounds great.

If you want, I can have a quick read and let you know if I have any suggestions.

Thanks sooo much for your words that made me a bit more assured. I have started a conversation with you here on the forum. Please see my essay attached in our conversation.

Thanks!!
