Hello Guys,

I'm 35 years old and planning to come for MBA this July intake. The consultant says that its difficult to get a student visa on college i20's. Only an admission from a University would add value for visa application. Could you please share your views. Also I have about 9 years gap since my last edu. qualification and now. Is it an issue for visa?

Thanks.

I did my MS from Europe. Basically a engg. grad.
Will be tough to show that you need to do an MBA especially a low quality one like UCW. Assume you are likely at a management level. If it was a better MBA you may be able to convince CIC easier that you need to do the MBA. Is there a reason you want to move to Canada? Where are you currently working? We’re there not opportunities in Europe? Are you travelling alone or do you have a family? Are you the breadwinner in your family? I am not saying you will be denied but UCW is essentially a small school in an office tower. Have you applied for a permit and is UCW going to have classes in July?
