Thank you, for your time and insight. The reason why i am having doubts is because i couldn'treally find any solid alumni information about the canadian campus as opposed to their main campus in Boston, which has a very good/solid reputation especially their co-op program which attracted me to the school in the first place. Coupled with mixed comments i read online about their Canadacampus which they call a satellite campus as opposed to Boston.

I also want to mention that I was also able to secure an ission at Concordia University montreal for Masters in information systems security (M.Eng), which also has a comprehensive course offering but their Co-op program doesn't have as much clout has Northeasterns, coupled with the fact that they didn't really give me any funding unlike Northeastern University ission which came with 25% of plus some fundings here and there.

I would appreciate it if you can give me your opinion on which I should go for and why. If you can thank you.

I guess since you If you have secured ission already, you have done your due diligence already, why are you having misgivings? Anyway, the school is legit, their programme is solid, I have come across a few people have enrolled and graduated from the school, infact they will be having their graduation ceremony on May 27th.
Pros of the school
Their course structure is solid
Their faculty is also great.
Their lecture structure is very manageable (allows you time to do one or time to get income)

Cons of the school
It is expensive
It is a private university, as such their graduates are not eligible to participate in the ONIP masters stream for PNP.

In my honest opinion, if you can afford the school, it is not bad at all, as for the co-op, you would have to search for yourself, though I understand the school usually has a fair for students to meet with potential employers, though it is not a guaranty they would hire you for co-op, at least the fair gives you a chance.[/quote]

Many Nigerian students in Canada are now stuck after their PGWP expires, with no clear PR path a harsh truth many are ashamed to it. Studying in Canada doesn’t guarantee PR, and a few students I know who came through Northeastern ended up dropping out or switching schools.
If I had your budget, especially since working in Canada can’t be relied on to fund your education and even residents are struggling to find jobs, choosing a place like Toronto could be a miscalculation. I’d rather go for a program with a strong PR stream like Ontario’s Master’s Graduate Stream (only for certain public schools) or invest in French training abroad to qualify for French-speaking draws. Best of luck!

To be honest, I had never heard of Northeastern University's Toronto campus before. My office is on Front Street, right behind the CN Tower, and I work in tech for one of the big banks in Toronto. When you mentioned the campus on King Street, I had to Google it—haha—and honestly, it looks like what Canadians would call a 'strip mall college' (Google that term to see what I mean).

That said, it's recognized as a Designated Learning Institution (DLI):
https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/study-canada/study-permit/prepare/designated-learning-institutions-list/northeastern-university.html

So, all things being equal, you should qualify for a 3-year Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP) because it’s a Master’s program. If it’s a one-year program, make sure to double-check the latest rules—someone else can correct me if I’m wrong.

Most people in Canada probably haven’t heard of the school, but it does seem legit. Don’t be surprised if most of your classmates are Indian or Chinese—mostly Indian, from my experience—haha.

It might be tough to get day-to-day info about how the school runs.

Now, when it comes to tech, internships or co-op programs in Canada are honestly one of the best things you can do for yourself. It’s not always easy to get one, especially since well-known schools usually provide more to help their students land good opportunities.

In Canada, getting a co-op/internship is usually a mix of your school’s reputation and your own skills. You’ll understand more when the time comes. But if your program includes a co-op or internship, that’s a big ‘yes’ from me. Go for it—it's worth it.

Make a scale of preference, look at what you have and need, then see which of the schools ticks most of the boxes, also you will need to consider the location of the schools and the cost of living as well as job prospects there. Once you list the things you need, you will be able to determine the school that will be better for you.

Let me provide some context. Before 2021, it was relatively easy for international students in Canada to obtain permanent residency (PR) after graduation. However, the process has become much more competitive now, and that’s one of the reasons why asylum claims are increasing.


Many of the people claiming asylum today are former international students who are working but no longer have a straightforward path to PR.

In my opinion, anyone coming to Canada today—regardless of experience or qualifications—needs to fully understand all the possible pathways to permanent residency. For example, being eligible for the OINP (Ontario Immigrant Nominee Program) Masters Graduate Stream can be a big advantage.

Since you’re planning to pursue a master’s degree, and it seems that funding is not a major issue, I would strongly advise against enrolling in a private college. Private schools often do not qualify you for programs like the OINP Masters Stream, which is currently one of the most viable pathways to PR for international graduates in Ontario.

My main concern with the program and school you're considering is that it does not make you eligible for the OINP Masters Stream, and right now, that’s one of the few options left for staying in Canada post-study. The points required for Express Entry are currently very high—check for yourself on the official site:
🔗 [Express Entry Rounds of Invitations](https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/mandate/policies-operational-instructions-agreements/ministerial-instructions/express-entry-rounds.html)

In tech, after your first job, nobody really cares where you went to school. What matters is your skills and experience. But even with a tech job, the competition is tough. Once you graduate and get a work permit, your next major goal should be securing PR. That’s why I want you to be strategic and choose a path that maximizes your chances.

I always recommend doing thorough research, especially if you’re aiming to settle in Ontario. If possible, pursue a master’s program at a public university that qualifies you for the OINP Masters Stream. You can find a list of eligible schools and programs here:
🔗 [OINP Masters Graduate Stream](https://www.ontario.ca/page/oinp-masters-graduate-stream)

Think long-term. Many people didn’t plan properly and are now struggling. Don’t end up like "Badadvisor" —someone who ignored proper planning, believed they had all the answers, and is now frustrated and warning others not to come simply because things didn’t work out for him.

If I were you, I would go for Concordia University. Even though it’s in Montreal, QC, it’s a better option—but make sure you explore pathways that align with that choice. Just don’t be like Badadvisor, who never planned ahead.

Hey guys, anyone going to Ontario for September, please hit me up

Better stay in Nigeria and enjoy your money, else you'd start regretting few months after your arrival and you won't want to come back to Nigeria again so you don't seem like a failure

Thank you for your advice and i will look at the options and pick the one that gives me the surest path to PR . Once again thank you, I really appreciate it.

Hello guys,

My Canadian study visa got refused because of these reasons below, Though I am applying from South Korea and I am on a temporary visa here. Please any information on how to go about these and ing documents to reapply and get an approval will be appreciated. Kindly assist me.

Ps: I proofed ties to my home country which is Nigeria where I have my ed business with CAC and a cooperate of $7kCAD, landed properties and my family.

Please what can be done to clear this and get an approval on my reapplication.

“The purpose of your visit to Canada is not consistent with a temporary stay given the
details you have provided in your application.
• Your immigration status outside your country of nationality or habitual residence.
• You have limited employment possibilities in your country of residence”.

Alright sir. Anyways, anyone going to Ontario this fall?

i recieved this news;I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay as required by
paragraph R216(1)(b) of the IRPR (https://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/regulations/sor-2002-227/
section-216.html). I am refusing your application because you have not established that you will
leave Canada, based on the following factors:
• Your assets and financial situation are insufficient to the stated purpose of travel
for yourself (and any accompanying family member(s), if applicable).

Wishing you all the best!

I honestly don’t understand why more people don’t choose Memorial University. It’s ranked among the top 25 universities in Canada (currently 22nd), and it offers some of the most affordable tuition fees for international students. You can pay less than 10 million Naira per year — and might even have some change left.
👉 [Graduate Tuition & Fees – Memorial University](https://www.mun.ca/finance/graduate-student-tuition-and-fees/)

Plus, Newfoundland — although quite cold — offers one of the easiest pathways to permanent residency through the Atlantic Immigration Program and Provincial Nominee Programs like the Nova Scotia Nominee Program (NSNP). Just make sure your course and skills are in demand:
👉 [Nova Scotia Nominee Program Info](https://liveinnovascotia.com/nova-scotia-nominee-program#tab-0)

You’ve definitely made a smart choice! Memorial is not only affordable but also well-funded by the government, as it's the only university in Newfoundland. Once you get your PR, you’re free to move to other provinces for better opportunities if you wish.

Again, wishing you all the best — and to anyone searching for schools in Canada, Memorial University should definitely be on the list!

More like November.....

IRCC can be tough sometimes. Here's my story:
I was rejected twice—back-to-back in 2015 and 2016—even after paying a full year’s tuition fee in 2016. Today, I’m a Canadian citizen. So please, don’t give up. I understand how you feel. It hurts, and sometimes it’s not even your fault. IRCC is getting stricter, but it’s always a good idea to reapply once you understand what went wrong.

A few suggestions to help you:
First, if you don’t mind sharing your profile, people here can better guide you. Here are a few things you could share:

How much is your tuition fee?
How much proof of funds (POF) did you show?
Who is sponsoring you?
What do you do for work? (Fun fact: You don’t necessarily need alot of money in your , but it helps to show that you’re employed or doing something productive in your home country.)
What’s your family background? If your sponsor is your parent, for example, and they are also responsible for other children, IRCC considers that too.

About POF:
To be honest, as hot as Canada is right now (in of immigration demand), your POF should ideally be nothing less than ₦60 million in cash. That’s because the average cost for a master’s program is around ₦40 million, and you’ll need at least ₦20 million for living expenses. (Assuming \$1 CAD = ₦1,000.)

Even though Memorial University is on the cheaper side, you should still aim for a minimum of ₦60 million to be on the safe side.

Also, try to request your GCMS notes.
This will help you understand exactly why you were rejected and how to fix it for your next application.

Good morning my good people.

I want to apply for MBA in Canada but I have a pressing question to ask from experienced Canadian students.

I have ND, HND(lower credit) and BSc. (2.1) all in Nigeria. I was itted to final year for my B.Sc meaning that I only spent one year to obtain my B.Sc.

If I apply for MBA in Canadian schools with my B.Sc. will there be an issue, considering that I obtained the degree in one year or will I applied with ND, HND and Bsc?

Also, do they accept NECO Certificate in placement of SSCE?

Thanks.

Thank you so much for the encouragement.
Firstly, I’m willing to share my profile and I’m sure it will help….but at the moment I’m trying to get my GMC note.

Good day everyone, I am applying for my MSc in Canada with student loan from Mpower which I have been given conditional approval by Mpower. I also added additional source of funds from a friend and my personal savings. I have a current job with monthly salary of 470k in Nigeria.

What is my chances of visa approval and can I apply with my wife and kid or leave them behind because my intention after graduation is to settle in Canada. Pls I need a professional advice on this

No one can say if your application will be approved or not, however, you need to take steps in line with the requirements from IRCC. Firstly, IRCC only recognizes Mpower loan for tuition payment, so you have to raise funds to cover your living expenses and other sundry costs. Using third party as sponsors is very difficult as you have to explain the sources of their income and WHY they are sponsoring you, you also need to show you have some savings as well as this will your economic establishment in your home country.

DID YOU KNOW??

Many of us were not prepared for this, and no one really told us.

There’s something called INTEGRATION INTO THE SYSTEM IN CANADA?

This isn’t about how much money you brought or your status back home in Nigeria. It’s about your character and how you adjust to a new environment.

You must prepare to integrate. No matter how much you came with, a time will come when you’ll want to start earning in dollars. That’s when the real test begins.

Integration means many things: finding a job, studying for your driving test, using maps to get around, and most importantly, being humble enough to ask questions and seek help. You can learn how to integrate quickly.

But the list doesn’t stop there.

Many assumptions and plans you made before arriving may not give you the same results here. Real life hits differently.

Bottom line: Integrate fast. Be intentional. Seek information.

Some people have access to strong networks and first-hand information in Canada. But many don’t. If you’re one of those without inside connections, your success will depend on how quickly and wisely you choose to integrate.

But integration alone won’t save you if the system is stacked against you.
Even those who did everything right are now stuck.
Jobs are scarce, PGWPs are expiring, and IRCC keeps changing the rules.
No job = no PR, and most newcomers can’t find stable work.
Employers are overwhelmed, and desperation is everywhere.
The system now filters more than it welcomes!!

I first ed this platform back in 2016 and was really active, especially up until mid-2019 when I moved to Canada. Since then, life has taken me on quite the journey. Logging back in today feels surreal, seeing how many threads have evolved and how much the world have changed.

Relocating from Nigeria and settling into a completely new environment has been both fascinating and challenging. The dynamics of travel, migration, and daily life have shifted so much between 2019 and now. Honestly, everything feels different.

I just wanted to stop by, check in, and send out my best wishes to everyone still navigating their path on here. Whatever you’re chasing growth, happiness, peace stay focused and stay wise. Things aren’t the same as they used to be and that’s exactly why we need to keep evolving too.

Stay safe and all the best in your journey.

Either you learn a globally recognized skill or certification—at least start with the basics—or you’ll end up doing security jobs, PSW work, or Uber Eats deliveries for the rest of your life.

And yes, feel free to report me if the truth hurts—just like you always do when the truth is too painful to hear.

Here are some good starting points:

Entry-Level Certifications:

Entry-Level DevOps Engineer https://www.tealhq.com/certifications/entry-level-devops-engineer

Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM) https://www.pmi.org/certifications/certified-associate-capm

If you already have experience, aim higher:

Project Management Professional (PMP) https://www.pmi.org/certifications/project-management-pmp

IIBA Business Analysis Certifications https://www.iiba.org/business-analysis-certifications/iiba-certifications/

Microsoft Certified: Data Analyst Associate https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/credentials/certifications/data-analyst-associate/?practice-assessment-type=certification


with any of this jobs starting out of school you will make $85,000 CAD Minimum a year thats with out much exprience

Please dont be like my Good friend Badadvisor who didnt plan before coming to canada and even while in canada after school he has no plan

None of these jobs will pay you $85K right after school that’s pure false hope. Even if you manage to land an interview, you’re up against thousand overqualified applicants with years of experience who are still jobless in Canada. The market is saturated, and a certificate alone means nothing when employers are asking for 4+ years of local experience for so-called entry-level roles!!!

I will advise you to order for GCMS note. If you are applying outside your home country, you must consider your immigration status in SK is important. You couldn't use your business to demonstrate your financial capability. Next time ensure to include TCC.

To be honest you lost me at " None of these jobs will pay you $85K right after school that’s pure false hope"

Before I post anything here, please know that I have proof to back up my claims and even more evidence to them further.

Yes, the job market is saturated and becoming more competitive thanks to crazyLiberal policies

But this is the same job market where my cousin, fresh out of his Master’s program, landed an $85K job after earning his Business Analyst certification. He didn’t work in Nigeria apart from NYSC, but he was able to present about 3 years of work experience. He used his NYSC, where he served as a teacher, and claimed he worked as a private contractor for First Bank’s tech team—his mother is a director at the bank if he even needed NIgerian refrence

He put in a lot of effort even while still in school. He attended Business Analyst training programs (some of which are available online). If I find the link to the Nigerian trainer who offers those programs, I’ll share it here. FYI all training are not free and you have to put in the work.

All he had to do was learn how to train and prepare himself for interviews.

From the time he finished his Master’s program in December 2024 until he got the offer in April, he was doing countless interviews even while still in school to get familiar with the process and improve himself for interview and his resume.

I wish I could share more, but the screenshot below is the most I can provide due to privacy reasons.

No one enters the job market unprepared and expects to succeed, especially without experience. That’s why some people create job histories based on what they did in Nigeria and it with globally recognized certifications relevant to the roles they’re targeting.

It's not easy but with proper planning, it’s definitely possible.
