Best Education Services CEO Ishmael Muslim has cautioned Ghanaian students considering studying abroad, specifically in Canada, to carefully verify their choices before applying. At a Study in Canada Fair held in Accra, Muslim stressed that relying solely on online searches to select universities could expose students to fraudulent institutions that are not accredited to admit international students.
He urged students to engage directly with university representatives to gain accurate information regarding admissions, scholarships, and other critical aspects of studying in Canada. Muslim emphasized that just because a foreign university offers admission and a student pays their fees, it does not guarantee the issuance of a student visa, as visa approval is a separate process.
The fair, which brought together 20 accredited Canadian universities, aimed to bridge the information gap caused by students' reliance on online research. Attendees expressed appreciation for the direct engagement, citing deeper knowledge and a smoother application process. Best Education Services also provided additional support, including assistance with programme selection, financing, visa applications, and connecting students with Ghanaians studying in Canada.
