Covid Travel Restrictions
The ending of the year 2021 came with an unexpected challenge, this unexpected occurrence was the Omicron variant of the Corona Virus, which made countries like the UK and Canada ban and put up strict travel rules for Nigerians. This change affected a good number of Nigerian students who had plans to study for the January 2022 intake. It also affected universities, as they had to make adjustments to suit the changes that were made by the government, like virtual classes for students who were yet to get their visas or begin their visa process, and also, deferring student’s offers until the next intake etc
Students who did their admission and visa process for January 2022 intake early, did not have to bother about this. Therefore, putting in admission and visa applications late in the year 2022 should be avoided so as not to end up in a situation whereby your offer is withdrawn or deferred due to unforeseen circumstances like Covid 19. Early admission and visa application should be done to ensure success in your travelling process and studies abroad this year 2022.
Technological Advancements
One of the trends for study abroad matters is Technological Advancements. As the years go by, the world keeps evolving at a rapid pace, and as it evolves, there are also technological advancements. This is so because, to keep up with these changes (such as the Covid Outbreak and other issues) IT professionals have been left with no other choice than to unlearn, relearn and develop more in the technological field.
As a prospective student with the intention to keep up with this technological advancement and the biggest trends in the technological sector. Here are some career fields that you may have to focus on

To be able to achieve this, you will need to decide on study abroad matters like What Country to study in, Which University you would like to study in and how is their teaching style, What course to study and if you meet up with the requirements.
Interest in health-related courses
The health care sector has always been an important field but ever since the emergence of Covid 19, the health care sector has become one of the most sought-after careers in the world. This is so because, after the Covid 19 outbreak, the World Health Organization (WHO) realised the importance of strengthening the capacity of health systems.
When deciding on your career goals, you should consider a profession that is relevant in society, that will gain you good employment, that will ensure you gain professional and personal development and also, a high paying profession.
To achieve these goals as a student, you should look into health-related courses. Such as; Nursing, Public Health, Global Health Care, Health Care Management, Social Works etc.
Nigerians Emigrating to study abroad
Nigerians relocating to study in Countries like Canada, the USA, and the UK has become one of the biggest trends in this year 2022. Yes, studying and living in these countries especially as an International student will be a great experience but most Nigerians relocate seeking better opportunities due to the poor state of the country.
Every year, thousands of Nigerians travel to study abroad as they experience numerous problems that are occurring in the country, problems like Insecurity, poor economy, corruption, low exchange rate, low standard of living, and the upcoming issue which is a phobia for elections, as major elections are on the way, etc
Due to these problems, Nigerians have taken to studying abroad most especially in the year 2022, as a means to avoid election phobias, to have a better and safer standard of living, for greater opportunities and all the benefits that come with studying abroad in these countries.
Nigerians relocating to Canada
Since the year 2017, Nigerians have massively relocated to Canada, the reasons for this relocation is not far fetched. Let us take a look at the push and pull factors of migration, these are factors that push one out of his home country and pull him into a foreign land.
The push factors for Nigerians in this year 2022 are
- Bad Governance
- Insecurity
- Upcoming Elections etc
The Canadian government created attractive policies that pull foreigners into the country. These policies can be known as migration schemes, they are point-based programs that attract citizens into Canada, (Nigerian citizens that fall under any of the categories)
Some of the pull factors that attract Nigerians into Canada are
- Education Program
- Canadian experience class program
- Federal skilled workers program
- Federal skilled trades program
The education program is one of the major pull factors in Canada because of their scholarships. These scholarships give Nigerians the opportunity to study and live in one of the highly recognized countries in the world at little cost, and after studies, they can apply for permanent residency using any of the other programs.
