    • @keepingupwithzeek
      @keepingupwithzeek  2 роки тому +1

      Hello. Yes you can!
      Subleasing can be risky, because it is your name on the lease and not the other person. So if they don’t pay, you might have to be the one to pay for the rent out of pocket because it is your name on the lease.

    Thanks for sharing. I have questions and I would be glad if you can answer them
    Before going for your studies, how much was required in the bank statement consideration you were paying your tution while studying?
    After your diploma studies, did you go to university?
    What chance does a diploma holder have against a university degree holder in Canada in getting good jobs?
    Thanks

    • @keepingupwithzeek
      @keepingupwithzeek  2 роки тому +4

      Hello Deborah!
      Yes, I’m more than happy to answer your questions.
      1. I don’t recall how much was required in my bank account. My dad did provide his bank statement(s).
      2. It was when I got here (after 2nd year) that I was able to ask to split my tuition while also studying (I don’t think it’s something that they can do for you before)
      Advice: make sure you have at least one year tuition ready
      3. After my diploma, I started working. After 4 years working, I finally got my PR (thank God, Alhamdullilahi) and then I decided to go back to University to get my full degree.
      4. I would say that it depends on the program. For example, there are good college programs like business analysis, social service work, paralegal, nursing. And the same goes for university programs too. But then there are also programs in college and university that might not have high demand for jobs.
      I hope this helps!

    • @keepingupwithzeek
      @keepingupwithzeek  2 роки тому +4

      Hi 👋🏾
      From my experience, financial aid can help with spreading out your tuition fees and giving you a deadline, they can’t pay for your tuition.
      So for example if your tuition is $20,000 per year and the deadline for all student is Jan 24th. You can ask them to spread it out for you, so you can pay $5000 one month, another $5000 in February, another $5000 in March, and then another $5000 in April.
      They usually don’t let it get to exam period, so you might have to request another extension.
      On the other hand, you can apply for international student bursary. The application requires your academic grades and personal statement. I believe I got $500-$1000 from that. It’s little money but it’s helpful.

      I don’t know what you mean by “normal Nigerian”. But if a Nigerian comes to a western country and they associate themselves with westerners, then they begin to speak in a western way.
      If a Nigerian has never stepped foot in a western country but they are talking like one, then you can consider that “forming”
      I’ve lived in Canada for a number of years. So it’s safe to say that I have an “accent”.
      With that said, if you don’t like the way I speak, you don’t have to watch my videos.
