beeblackstar:

I get your point but that was done for the previous years and not this year. When u were applying how many options where there in the drop down list for grade? JUST 2 (2:1 And 1st class).. It was clearly stated that for you to be eligible to apply you must have either 2:1 or first class. So having 2:1 does not automatically make you a shortlisted candidate. And there is a limited amount of shortlisted candidates ( google this n ull see how many they selected last year)

kk, maybe its FCFS then. I pray it turns out good for all of us...

Please house how do I check my status and their correct website. Thank You

Just checked on their website but nothing was written on my status the space was left blank. Could only see my profile... What do I do to know my status?

I just checked mine too, there's nothing under it anymore. "shortlisted" was under my passport just last week.

JstBrave:


I tink it's a general problem. There was 'shortlisted' on my profile b4....now, there's nothing!

Please, let evry1 check his/her status nd giv us feedback here. Thanks

Pls if you need help with the jamb answers don't waste any more time.

Are you tired of staying at home?

Are you sick of the insults and taunts from your parents?

Is age no longer on your side?

Then please call 07087706791 for enquiries. In Nigeria today, it's not about hard work, it's smart work! God help us all. . .

sorry,i have been very busy with exams and also not been checkn my yahoo box for mails as i use my schls' own...

send me a mail if u still have issues...may take me time to answer but ll try and get back to u.... uzoexcel@yahoo.com

go thru all i posted and it should help u...I m really disappointed with some of my fellow/ex scholars who see this forum as a money making venture by trying to sell past questions for young guys here who are trying to progress...You should know that what goes around comes around!!!!
Most of the past question(s) been sold are fake...The DG of NITDA is a very strict and responsible man from the north and word was that he marked the papers himself (50 per day) without entrusting it to any one/body as he did not trust people under him...Unlike most scholarship schemes in naija, this was purely by merit.I can attest to that as me and my fellow scholar from my state had no 'connection' within the organisation and in abuja...The man is due to retire this year and i m sure the scheme will soon fall in the way of our usual 'naija levels'. Try ur best and may God be with you all..ciao!!!!

margeee just prepare for the aptitude test, no knowledge is lost, instead of bothering yourself on whether you were shortlisted or not, let's just be hopeful and prepare well, like i said, no knowledge is lost, so calm down and prepare
