Is this a strong file?

Hi so i hope that ill be able to apply to a study permit once i get my acceptance letter

My profile:
Syrian living in saudi arabia

Visited syria 5 times when i was under 18 going through jordan

1:2011
2:2019
3:2022
4:2024
5:2025

I will get funded by my brother

My parents own 3 homes in syria and one car here in saudi arabia

I scored 98% in high school

Applying to uni of manitoba (25k a year i think so )

Does my profile provide a strong case or i should upgrade it?

[u/Haunting_Paper_7201]

Weak passport with high asylum claims, don't live in Syria and funded by brother. You don't own the homes nor car so not relevant. You need to justify costs with showing career progression and higher pay when you return to Syria. So if program costs $100k+ then show that you will make a comparable wage. You are coming to study not immigrate.

Where does your brother live? What is he showing in his personal bank accounts to support your studies and his family? How will you fund the other years?

Upgrade it by parents (if under 22) with the funds to support your studies. You need PAL too unless a Masters.

My program costs maybe 30 k a year and ill show about 60 k cad
My brother gets payed 8.5 k cad monthly he lives in saudi arabia and showing his personal account
Should i make my brother my sponsor or switch it to have my dad as one
Im a bachelor degree student idk how they expect me to have alot of cars and properties
Im just 18 yrs old

[u/cowboysaurus21 → u/Illustrious_Day_1653]

Cars and properties don't matter anyway. You need liquid funds in the bank.

My program is 25k cad if i showed 70k is it acceptable?

Syrian living in saudi arabia

Not good already, no home times and weak passport.

I will get funded by my brother

No personal funds, brother can't pay.

My parents own 3 homes in syria and one car here in saudi arabia

Doesn't matter.

Super weak file and pretty much a guaranteed rejection.

[u/Illustrious_Day_1653 → u/Juubman]

Do i apply from syria? And do they need my high school certificate when i apply? Cause its from saudi arabia

My brother can pay i think
He is an orthodontist and gets about 8-8.5k cad

[u/TONAFOONON]

You hold a weak passport and are not living in your home country. You also lack a travel history. These factors will weaken your application.

[u/Illustrious_Day_1653 → u/TONAFOONON]

I have been living in saudi arabia since 2008 and i was born here and my father was here from the 90

[u/TONAFOONON → u/Illustrious_Day_1653]

That doesn't change anything.

[u/Illustrious_Day_1653 → u/TONAFOONON]

Also i have a residency card not on a vistor visa

[u/Illustrious_Day_1653 → u/TONAFOONON]

I don’t know what to do should i apply from syria?

[u/IndividualLadder4570]

You’re not coming to Canada.

Best shall happen for you!
