I am a graduate of electrical engineering B.Eng. I'm going for Masters in electrical engineering
USA denied my Visa. I am not going for US again.
I see. Research based masters in Canada is highly competitive and it requires a high level CGPA to emerge. I will advice that you keep trying

Consent form
Biometric page
port data page photocopy
PPR letter

I think that’s all


Cadygosh:
Okay, thanks. This is 1 way, right? He can pick the port up himself once it’s ready, right? And also what documents is he to take there apart from his port and PPR letter.

You need to show funds for flight cost to and from Canada, preferably in your own , In SOP, you would need to show how the funds used in GIC and paying the fees were raised with documents which can be employment letters and payslips etc

Good morning all.
Yesterday night,around 7:30pm I got a correspondence letter / bvl,till now I’ve gotten nothing else. My application is still saying “in progress”. Sent mails to Nairobi,London and Lagos last night yet nothing.
Checked my tracker and it’s last update was Aug 11th. I don’t even know what to do anymore.
Please I would appreciate your suggestions pls.
When did you apply ?

Getting ission into university is the arduous part of this Canada journey. I have cold-emailed professors according to people's recommended format and in line with professors' research interests. I don tire. I studied Electrical engineering.

Yesooo, No be small thing at all.

Canada universities no plenty like USA which means limited profs. with large number of applicants cold mailing them. Due to the immigration prospects of Canada after study, the rate of which Profs will receive cold mails will be pretty high.

So you know, some other Prospective Graduate Students from different parts of the world are also cold mailing that prof. you have cold mailed (Competition).

Suggestion

I don't know your Electrical Engineering research area or areas for a Thesis-based Masters in Canada but
I will suggest you explore more research areas in Electrical Engineering that you vibe or might vibe with.
Who knows, you might have transferable skill sets, or have done relevant courses in some other research areas even though it's not related to your research experience, e.g. Your final year project in the University.

So that being said, check out Profs. in that other Electrical Engineering research area/areas you haven't checked out, do the needful and cold mail them non-generically. Anything can happen

Research areas in Electrical Engineering

1. Power Systems Stability and Control
2. Renewable Energy Integration
3. Grid Modernization and Smart Grids
4. Energy Storage Systems
5. Power Quality and Reliability
6. Microgrid Design and Optimization
7. Power Electronics for Electric Vehicles
8. Cyber-Physical Systems
9. Energy-efficient Buildings and Smart Homes
10. Electric Motor Drives
11. Fault Diagnosis in Power Systems
12. Wireless Power Transfer
13. Energy Harvesting Technologies
14. Power System Optimization
15. Advanced Control Techniques
16. Wide Area Monitoring and Control
17. Photovoltaic Systems and Solar Energy
18. Wind Energy Conversion Systems
19. Electric Energy Markets and Economics
20. Demand Response and Energy Management
21. Electric Power Distribution Systems
22. Electromagnetic Compatibility
23. Antenna Design and Analysis
24. Radar and Remote Sensing

46. VLSI Design and Testing
47. Bioelectronics and Neuroengineering
48. Wearable Electronics and Sensors
49. Communication Security and Cryptography
50. Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure

These areas cover a wide range of topics within the field of Electrical Engineering, showcasing its diverse and impactful nature in various technological domains.


Also look out for d graduate positions in Electrical Engineering research areas that interests and apply

Lot's of it are on Twitter and LinkedIn.

Good luck

its not just high cgpa, course also matters. highly competitive courses are more difficult to get in. also study gap in education matters. most supervisors prefer students without study gap.

Well said.

Another thing is that, some people put non relevant work experience on their ACADEMIC CV for graduate school application.

For example,
A Chemistry graduate who is looking for a Thesis-based Masters in Chemistry in Canada and is working as an HR is not expected to put such work experience on an Academic CV.

If you don't have work experience related to Chemistry, don't put work experience on your Academic CV

Not everyone might have money for tuition, so fullyfunded scholarship via MSC, PHD , POST DOC do come to the rescue. People do get it, though with some hard work.

Also, some people have different choices and plans for their JAPA. For example, some people might have interest in Academia, Research etc., the likes of Masters, PHD, Post Doctorate is the best path to actualize that.

exactly. you hit the nail on the head. some courses are so competitive that you compete against asians & indians with perfect grades & even GRE. your best bet is to go for course or project based. or just kukuma go to college
