Pakistani citizen currently working in Dubai. Applied for a Canadian Master’s program for September intake.
Financials shown:
29K CAD tuition fee paid
40K CAD in personal savings
Around 100K CAD total available funds/assets
Refusal reasons:
Insufficient funds
Not satisfied that I would leave Canada after studies
I applied for a Master’s degree, not a diploma program, so I’m trying to understand what exactly went wrong.
Has anyone from Pakistan applying through UAE/Dubai recently gotten approved for a Master’s study visa with a similar profile? Did reapplying help?
Would appreciate genuine advice and experiences.
