Graduate Certificate programs in Canadian Colleges are great alternatives for students who are not eligible for Masters/PhDs. Or those interested in programs offering practical training & hands-on experience.

For affordable options, check Colleges in Atlantic Canada & Prairies.
Provinces in these regions: Newfoundland, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, Manitoba and Saskatchewan

A Graduate Certificate program in International Business Management is $​9,468/yr at New Brunswick Community College

Same program in Ontario is at least $18,000
Graduate Certificate programs are the same as Post-Grad Diplomas or Graduate Diplomas. They help you to show academic progression if you already have a Degree or Diploma (i.e ND/HND).

The programs are equally eligible for a Post-Grad Work Permit to stay back & work in Canada.
And of course, the cost of living in Atlantic Canada & the Prairies is considerably lower than other parts of Canada

So, an added advantage

If you study in Atlantic Canada, you also have one more permanent residence program option through the Atlantic Immigration Pilot Program.
If you need more clarity on everything I said, check the comprehensive post I have here on how to find schools and apply to study in Canada.

There are 6 time zones in Canada. For 2 people living in Canada, one person's good morning could be the other's good afternoon.....and that could be goodnight in Nigeria.

Adding that to newcomers trying to settle in, find jobs, adjust to the new system, etc...we can see the why.
11:00am in Vancouver is already 8:00pm in Nigeria. The person in Nigeria is already back from work using pepper soup to step down.

Imagine that person now expecting someone in Vancouver to stay on Whatsapp and be chatting or gisting over the phone.

Ni aro kutukutu ojo aje 😭
Even the person that is here as a student is trying to survive, hustle the next tuition or rent, or complete the assignments to keep his grades high and retain his/her scholarship.

And the assignments here dey choke... E be like thing wey you need to do to enter heaven 😭

Omo!

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 undergrad grade will also not be a barrier for Masters like in Canada.

And like the USA or any other country where you have a valid status, you can directly apply for Canadian permanent residence from UK.
