Study permit status

[sammybrandy]

HI Good people,

I applied for a study permit for a master's degree from Nigeria on the 28th of June, 2016 precisely. The processing times for my country is usually between 12-15 weeks. But a lot of people that I know that has applied and the result came out successful takes only two months. In my own case is still showing 'passport being processed' and is two months already. Please what is your invaluable piece of advice for me and my chances of a successful visa result?
I have a scholarship worth $60,000USD from a multinational oil company,
Offer letter from my school (uni of Calgary)-chemical and petroleum Engineering
Deposit receipt of my tuition fees.
Tie-my private co-ownership company+ family

post graduate diploma certificate in petroleum Engineering
B.tech in Petrochemical Technology and amongst others.

It's difficult for any of us to say what the result will be. However generally speaking, your IELTS score is on the low side. Generally CIC expects Masters program applicants to score at least 6.5 in each of the four IELTS categories. Do you have any individual scores that are below 6?

R:4.5; W:6.5; L:5.5; S:6.5. Does CIC evaluate visa application with IELTS? I thought that is determined by the school?
