Hi all,

My CO just contacted me via email requesting for medicals and also importantly wanting to have a short interview with me on Monday. What do I expect?

meekmk:
Pardon my story but he fit long small.
Earlier this year I decided to go to Australia to obtain a masters of Human resource management. I opted for ecu. Edith Cowan University. The program consists of a 4 months pre masters program or course and upon completion I will start the 2 years masters itself.

I backed out of the program by listening to someone. A decision I'm almost regretting.. The person said it will be hard to get a job after completion.. Not true I think..

So my question us this..
The total programme will be 20 months study time.. Can I get a certificate course to make it 24 or 28 months after completion of the masters, to enable me get a good working permit.

After getting this permit or temporary residence.. Will I be able to get temporary jobs of 1 year , six months and the likes to build experience towards obtaining a PR. Or for my field is Australia a no no.. Please any advice is appreciated.. I'm 23 years old, IElts score 7.5 total band score.. Lowest was 6.5. I run a transport company and a pig farm.. Married this year with a little daughter on the way, due august..

B.A philosophy lagos state university.. Tuition is available for the full duration of study..

Please advice my brothers and sistrens!

Thanks

Doesnt matter, I didn't frontload myself. Just keep an eye on your email, trust me the moment they ask you to go for medical be sure a decision has been made. I got my grant a week after i was asked to go for medicals.

As regards the short interview, that will be a phone call to you I guess... so revise your sop(if available) , take note of the cogent points, such as why you chose th school, and Australia too. You may also want to clearly outline that on a sheet of paper alongside your background, ,work experience, academic achievements, Long TERM GOALS, and some other random things that match your application documents you submitted and your personal personality.

I believe more member on this forum have more to say (I just gave my own opinion)
Also. Prepare to fire your medicals on that Monday too. No time to check time bro
Thanks bro. Noted. This fatayi wiliams could only book me in for Thursday. I regret not front loading the medicals.

Regards

Amen ooo I want to see my fellow Nigerians dominate this place rather than the Sudanese and Togoese. It's frustrating you know having those people around and when you start speaking English #Some of them will see it as majic and the first thing they will say after listening to you is "Wow your English is pretty good" lol I speak English where I come from mehn with ***Don Jazz Voice***

Good morning people I am new here,I want to make inquiries,I would like to apply for masters in Australia,I want to know if they are schools that accept second class lower(Cgpa 3.46),also I want to know if they would require an application fee ,and if it is also possible to use my cousin accout as sponsor for visa application. Thanks.

JewelStone:


Welcome to the thread. Do yourself a favour and read up the last 100 pages or so.

Your CGPA is not bad. Most schools don't require application fee, and most schools will direct you to educational agents here in Nigeria.

With the new visa policy that will come to effect from July 1st, you may need an account statement for your visa application, depending on the school you've choosen. I'm not sure if your cousin can sponsor you as the new policy is very strict on financial requirement.

Google.com should be your best friend for now. Check out schools that offer your intended course and their respective fees, nobody has the time to do your research for you.

When you've shortlisted the schools you're interested in, I can advise you on the ones that will be easier for your visa application, based on my study of the new policy.
Thanks for your prompt reply,I studied Chemical Engineering,i would like to know the outcome after the masters degree,is it possible to have a stay and look for a job,as UK gives just 4 months how many months does Australia give after studies

Just my 2 cents
