NO SCHOLARSHIP IN SWEDEN AS A MASTERS STUDENT..
There are plenty scholarships for masters student .. Swedish Institute, Visby scholarship, Lund University global scholarship etc etc

My own prospective university in växjö has its own scholarship(of which I have applied to) and so do many other universities.
.
it is worthy to note that you will be competing with so many other candidates from around the world. With luck, great academic performance and great motivation letter, you might just be awarded a scholarship

Nipost is the best and only agency that working in Nigeria. Why spend money on DHL or FedEx when nipost could do the same service for 1:30 of the cost.

I sent my parcel(registered mail) to stavanger Norway at kaduna nipost headquarters office @ yakubu Gowon Road. It took just 10 days (weekend inclusive) to get to stavanger. On the 12th day I got email confirmation from university of stavanger. What an efficient service!

The most surprising thing is that this service cost me just 500naira. Yes, 500 naira was what I was charged for the service.. It was just mind-boggling.

All public universities in Norway are tuition free.
All masters program in public Norwegian University are tuition free.

Very few BSc program taught in English exist in Norwegian public universities and some of the BSc program levies tuition fee for students outside the Eu/EEA.

Most Norwegian University requires atleast C to be eligible for masters admission but this is mere lipservice as it is often the case that mostly applicants with B (2nd class upper) are offered admission. This is even more practicable if you had your previous education in a developing country. This also could be due to the fact that admission in Norway is highly competitive occasioned by the free and quality education

To the lady that enquired about BSc studies with OND - I am not sure if you qualify for BSc admission because to be eligible for BSc admission in Norway, you need to have upper secondary certificate (WAEC/NECO - at least 6 credits pass including Maths, English and a science subject) plus 1 year university studies.

Lastly, if any of you is thinking of applying against autumn 2017, that person should perish the thought as most admission window has elapsed.

But this does not apply to university of Stavanger since their admission window is still wide open till February or so. So you can check UiS out, see if you will find a program of interest and if you think you meet their requirements you can apply

Stay blessed!

Wow... You are well-informed. Masterclass from you.

People this is all what you have been asking of. Accurately accurate

I greet everyone here on dis forum. Am new here and have read through the thread. Good job. Guys. Please my question is that. I applied for admission in NTNU and it was stated that applicant should upload some certain documents which I did. Must I certified all the documents before uploading? Or is anyone here who got admitted recently in NTNU to share how he did it with the documents uploading. Please I need answer before 1st off Dec

bizza009:
Please must i certify my waec certificate before uploading on the NTNU portal,i need help please
All documents must be original copies. Photocopies are not allowed.

The transcript must be an officially certified copy from your university i.e it must contain the official stamp of your university and signed by the dean, registrar etc

Note: All your academic documents(especially University diploma and transcript) will be verified from your school. If your documents are unable to be verified, you will not be considered for admission.

Inaddition to uploading, NTNU also require Nigerian applicant to send their transcripts directly through the issuing university to NTNU.

Your waec must be an original copy (front and back scanned in one pdf document).

Ps:
What programs did you guys applied for at NTNU ?

Ladies and gentlemen.. Atimes I wonder if Kaduna state is in Nigeria or the UK. I am a serving Corp member in kaduna and I can categorically tell you that the power situation here is almost perfect (almost 24hrs) every single day of the week and month.

Since I came here in may, I haven't witnessed a day without power supply for atleast 10hrs a day.

We don't bother ourselves to iron our clothes before hand because we know that it is almost a guarantee that, electricity will be available when needed.

It is marveling really. I haven't seen a place with better power supply than kaduna.

I have been to 12states of the federation.

@ Mantle guy, any rough estimate of amount needed in my acct b4 applying for an MSc coures?

Plus does funding/scholarship exist for int'l student?

Will appreciate your kind response
The amount should be equivalent of NOK103950 in naira.

As at today's exchange rate, it is 3,920,000 naira

Ps: Norway is technically offering everyone scholarship. I mean every human being in a public Norwegian University on earth is already on Scholarship. Cos they don't charge fees to you.

I wonder what other scholarship you are looking for.

I recently applied to NTNU for MSc. but the school where I had by Bachelor's has been on strike for a while now (LAUTECH). So, I've not been able to get my certificate and transcript which I've applied for by the way. However, I do have my statement of result and a collection of all my semester results. Can I use these in place of the certificate and transcript respectively?
You have now until 15 December to get your transcript across to NTNcript must be an officially certified transcript from your school. "all semester results" won't be accepted. Since you have applied for ur certificate, u can as well wait for u to be in possession of it. All documents must have reach NTNU or uploaded to the application portal latest 2weeks after deadline.

I graduated with a 3rd class in urban and regional planning and furthered in geography and environmental mgt (pgd) with a 2.8 cgpa. I am pmp trained and a certified Nebosh safety professional. I worked with a real estate firm for 4 years as a planning officer involved in the design and development of estates. I currently work with a construction firm as a safety officer. My question is this do i stand a chance whatsoever in gaining admission into universities in Norway? My interest lies in 3 schools, Telemark msc environment science, University of Oslo msc human geography and Nmbu msc environmental studies. I know that admission is highly competitive but what are the odds that someone with my unfortunate result gets reasonable consideration? I didn't want to say all this here because I didn't want it to seem like i'm over reaching that's why I asked for a private audience. Thank your anticipated help and advice.
Most University if not all require applicants to have atleast a 'C' to stand a chance for admission. C over 5 is equal to 3.0/5.0.. Even with C sef, one's chances is still slim. Admission is highly competitive.
It also depends on the courses you took in ur undergraduate and how relevant they are to ur propose MSc program. For instance, someone with a GPA of 4.0 who lacks some relevant courses in under graduate level with stand a lesser chance to someone with a CGPA of 3.5 who has a good number of the relevant courses. This is key.. Make sure ur undergraduate is really related to ur MSc u applied for. Another key consideration is a compelling SOP and some relevant work experience.

I myself, my GPA isn't good sef, as I made exactly C but I have already sent in my application UIT and NTNU cos there are no harm in trying out. my undergraduate course is very related to all my MSc application and I have all the relevant courses. I hope for miracle grin grin

I wish I can join you in Tromsø, Kulex.

wristbangle:
Due to the economic quagmire and the high rate of unemployment, some Nigerians resort to seeking greener pastures in foreign countries through crook and illegal means without considering that the following routes may lead to untimely death, deportation and imprisonment.

Here are some of the disgraceful routes Nigerians take in order to become abroad citizens.

1. Borders

I find it very ridiculous for someone to endanger his life by travelling through road from one country border to another in search of greener pastures. Some of them become caught and are deported with immediate effect. The energy wasted on this perilous journey can be channelled to something productive in their motherland

2. Sea/Ocean

It is very risky to travel illegally through ship/boat in order to reach overseas countries. The funny aspect is that when there is a situation of ship mishap or storm leading to loss of lives, some shameless Nigerians will blame PMB/GEJ for their misfortune predicament.

3. Pilgrimage

On yearly basis, Nigeria government subsidize fees for Christian and Muslim pilgrims who travel to Israel and Saudi Arabia for their religious activities. Some Nigerians see this as an opportunity to run away just to become abroad citizens. This is why stringent rules are placed of recent to screen those who are qualified for the pilgrimage exercise.

4. Refugee camp

Some Nigerians don't even value their life as they intentionally travelled to troubled regions and join the caucus of refugees in order to gain access to abroad. Recent statistics even shows that there are certain percentage of Nigerians among the Syria, Somalia and other troubled zone refugees who wants to live in Europe.

5. Tour/Vacation/Holiday Visit

The lawless nature of some Nigerians is so appalling that they even display it in foreign countries. When they have outlived their visiting period, they refuse to return home and will become fugitive hiding from the police in order not to be deported. They hide in ridiculous places such as abandon stores, sewage containers, etc

6. Marriage

The height of desperation to become abroad citizens sometimes make some Nigerian men getting married to a woman who is as old as their grandmothers for the sake of getting stay in a foreign land.

7. Illegal jobs

It's a show of shame to some Nigerians who believe that jobs such as prostitution, cleaner, sewage packers and others can guarantee them access to become an abroad citizen. Isn't it a huge disgrace to see learned Nigerians doing these jobs when at home they can do something legitimate and respectful to become successful?

8. Sport event

We have heard cases where football fans who travelled abroad to support Nigerian team decide not to return home hence disappear. The just concluded Olympic games is an example where significant percentage of Nigerian fans fail to return home of which their whereabouts is unknown till date.

all your points are totally disconnected from the title of the thread.

And for the fact that you mentioned lalasticala, so this crap should be brought to front page is just laughable.
