Hello, I'm just an intending applicant who wish to apply for a study permit and possibly travel with my husbands and two kids. I'm 37 years... No travel history. I have bsc and masters in microbiology and wish to do my PhD in microbiology. I have over 10 years working experience and currently working in a federal university... Please, what are my chances of getting my study permit?
Study Permit Challenges for Nigerian Applicants

Do you already have Letter of Acceptance for your PhD from any school in Canada? That's tis the first step. If you have, most PhDs are funded by the university through scholarships and grants, because it's research-based. Once you have these, I think you can come with your family if you have enough funds to take care of them. PhD students are the only few that get away with coming with their families these days.
Any development on your application? I know 4 people who applied since May 15 and May 21. They are yet to receive any update till date. It's a shame what is going on at IRCCHey guys!, I'm confused ,,, I applied for study permit since June 3, 2021. Till now, I haven't heard from CIC again... I had to defer my admission to September 2022. The last time I enquired, they said it's been processed in Nairobi Office. Pls I need your advice.
Good day all, I'm as new as new can be on this platform. I just got an admission approval from Oulton College, and I'm working towards paying their initial deposit soon and be on the lookout for their admission letter. After this must have been received, what should be my next step? I'm trying to work towards the September admissions.
Thanks for your anticipated responses.

You should apply to a different school. This is a private schools where the degrees do not qualify for PGWP. Stick to public colleges and universities.
