Hi all,
Myself AB. I am from India, I am 34 years old who completed my Diploma in Electronics and Communication Engineering in 2006. I started working in IT sector in 2007 to till date, I do not have any major Gaps, I had a Gap of 2-3 months before 11 years that I took for taking certifications which were needed for betterment in my career. Now I am 13 years experienced and still working on the Technical side. I would like to move to the managerial field and for that, the basic qualification is a bachelor's degree. I would like to do a BBA in Project management and I always wish to study abroad and I prefer Canada which is one of my dream countries. I found a degree program at Yorkville university which is a 3 year BBA program that gives specialization in Project management.
I tried to approach few consultancies and they are straight away saying it's impossible for someone of my age to get a Student Visa in Canada because my education Gap is 10+ years. I tried to explain that in IT we need to learn and achieve even certifications at times. They said but Visa officers may ask why then I want to study in Canada itself and I am doing it for getting a PR.
The answer to the above is, I had to earn before I go for international studies, and now it's affordable for me. regarding PR yes I may try but It may not be possible to stay for long for every one In my case because my wife is an Ayurveda doctor and she cannot have a career there.. my elderly parents. there could be many things...
But the question here is why should someone get rejected from studying when they having a genuine cause, genuine reason for the study. Even if I try for PR or not, stay longer or not?
I am so confused? All this is true? Is there a chance for me to study in Canada? Please share your valuable experience if anyone of you ever tried and succeed. Can someone here guide me, please?
Regards,
AB
