📖 The Full Story

Simran had 68% in graduation and IELTS 6.5. Three consultants had told her Canada was "unrealistic" with her marks. Her parents were pushing her to settle for a lesser-known Australia college. We disagreed. The SDS (Student Direct Stream) focuses on GIC + tuition payment + IELTS — not academic percentage. We helped her target Seneca College's PG Diploma in Supply Chain Management, which had no specific GPA cutoff. We prepared her SOP focusing on her work experience (1 year in a logistics firm), got her GIC done through ICICI, paid 1-year tuition upfront, and filed SDS. Visa came in 12 days.

Challenges They Faced

  • 1.Academic percentage (68%) below most PG college requirements
  • 2.Three other consultants had declined her case
  • 3.Financial pressure — father was a small shop owner

The Outcome

Currently studying at Seneca College, Toronto. Working part-time at a Shoppers Drug Mart. Planning to apply for 3-year PGWP after graduation, then Express Entry.

"Other consultants laughed at my 68%. SureshotVisa didn't look at my marksheet — they looked at my potential. I'm now in Canada, working, studying, and my family is proud."
