TheGoddessA:

I just saw the email too, i have updated my profile and requested for the award letter too

chubylingy:
please do anyone know if PTDF have shortlisted undergraduate scholarship applicants ?

Babaseun1300:

Yes they have

TheGoddessA:
Has anyone received a follow-up email from PTDF? Any update?

Zabilon007:

Not yet... I am still waiting for the mail... Are we supposed to do anything before that?

Abduolrabiu:
Hello
Please I can I get my award letter. I have requested for it but up to now they did not sent it.

donbee:
They clearly stated that in the mail earlier send and I quote "
Another email will be sent with details of your documentation process and how to get your scholarship award letter".

TheGoddessA:
And it's over 30 days now,
I know patience is a virtue but c'monnn, they drop something like 'congratulations' and then go MIA.

The link is not working

When ASUU never release me. Who am I to apply for msc when I don't even know my year of graduation?
freedom not to return
What you said about competition is true. I checked my state from that link you posted earlier and there were only 4 girls out of the 20. I think there was a state with 10 awardees instead of 20. I was sha happy to see statistics, biochem and some other kin courses there. At least let me have hope with my Economics as I no do engineering
As at last year, there was no Commonwealth for msc for Nigerians.. only at phd level. But Commonwealth and Chevening na die. After requiring 2 years worth of work experience to apply, you'll still return to your fatherland for 2 years

mujibson:


Funny enough, we have 3 awardees from economics department in my school for this year UG ISS award.

I've been in this thread for long and I was silently rooting for you. I thought you weren't awarded because of your department, seems it's due to competition from your state.

Lastbornbuns:

Thank you 😊
Unfortunately, I didn't get it. Guess I wasn't as competitive as I thought. Congrats to the lucky winners.

Hannania:
It's probably not your competitiveness but your level. You should be on final year by now. Makes you not eligible

mujibson:
That statement is incorrect. She was admitted in 2018/2019 session, which is within the eligible period for application. It is worth noting that around 90 percent of scholarship recipients were admitted in same year (2018)

Furthermore, we have people admitted both in 2019/2020 and 2017/2018 sessions receiving the scholarship, indicating that the selection process may not be as straightforward as initially assumed. It seems no scholarship in Nigeria is 100 percent merit.

Yes but if we check it that way, I should've graduated last year; 2018/2019 to 2021/2022. Meanwhile, the notifications of award were sent in 2023

A journey ptdf started since 2020

mujibson:

The year of graduation does not affect the shortlisting process; it may only determines the frequency of payments. Almost everyone on the list studying a four-year course have nearly graduated. Similarly, a significant majority of MSC/PHD awardees have completed their programs and are entitled to receive payments. During the induction, we were informed that the scholarship is effective from September 2021, meaning that any academic expenses incurred between 2021 till present will be fully reimbursed. Meaning that, even if you graduated last year, you'll be paid for both last year and the one before (2021) ... 24 months instead of 36.

But sha, it's well. There's no need for all these back and forth. May God provide a better offer.
