How it started vs How it’s going.

This day 6 years ago, I came to Canada on a 2-year study permit

With $650 in my pocket, I had many questions in my head & high aspirations

I later became a permanent resident before the 2-year visa expired

…the rest like they say is history! ImageImage
I can’t believe I’ve spent up to 6 years in this country.

I also can’t believe I’ve spent just 6 years in this country...If you know what I mean

Everything looks so long, yet so short, but today is not for stories, it is for giving thanks

It’s been an amazing ride!

#Gratitude
No matter where you’re from, your dreams are valid!

And that’s what this country has done for many of us who came with 2 checked in bags and one carry on

Thank you Canada for the countless opportunities

We will continue to play our part to make the country better for everyone!

If you’re looking for a country where you can easily get an admission, consider UK

If you’re looking for a country where you have better scholarship options, consider US

If you’re looking for a country where you have better chances of getting a foreign passport, consider Canada
If getting a scholarship is a big part of your study abroad plans, and getting one in Canada is looking elusive, you can work out a smart plan

Consider the US as a study destination, and work towards your Canadian Permanent Residence application from there.

That’s a smart plan.
In the UK, you will easily get an admission if you have your money. A low undergraduate grade will also not be a huge barrier compared to Canada.

And just like the US, and any other country where you have a valid status, you can apply for Canadian permanent residence from UK too

UPDATE

This year, I plan to closely support 20 of my followers who are applying to study in Canada

I’ll provide the guidance, resources & some financial support (for those in need) to make their dreams come true

This is the soap I promised to cut for you

However, I am interested in working with those who are ready to do their own part as much as I am ready to do mine.

The dream is free, but the hustle is sold differently.

I want this to yield outstanding results and be a spring board for something bigger.
And for this first cohort, I am particularly interested in supporting those applying for a graduate level program (Masters/PhDs).

A few days ago I asked you to do 2 things:

1) To show your interest and answer a question on what you want to study in Canada and at what level?

Today marks the 154th Anniversary of the Canadian Confederation when the colonies of Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and the Province of Canada joined together to form the Dominion of Canada.

📷: @CanBorder
The land we live on & have the rare privilege to call home was originally inhabited by the Indigenous Peoples long before Canada became Canada

As we mark this year’s anniversary, it is important to note that the privilege of living in Canada comes with profound responsibilities.
First among many, is to acknowledge and reflect on the injustice and harm that Indigenous Peoples have been subjected to and continue to be subjected to in Canada.

Canada’s international students population will increase tremendously from 2021.

The relationship between the country and the students is a mutually beneficial one.

And the value the students bring is needed in the post-pandemic economy. So win-win for both sides.

Get ready!
- In the last 10 years, the international students population in Canada has increased by over 154%.

- International students contribute so much to the economy. In 2018 they contributed $22 billion to Canada's GDP and supported over 170,000 jobs.
- 96% of the International students will recommend Canada as a study destination.

- 60% of the international students in Canada plan to apply for permanent residence.

- As of December 31, 2019, there were already 642, 480 international students in Canada.
