Good day to the gurus in the house. I planned on applying for MSc for fall 2017, but due to some reasons I have not applied to any school.
Please I will like to know if it's not too late to apply for MSc (Biotech) in the US and get a full funding?
If yes, I need suggestions of schools that still accept applications. I have started searching for schools but the list seem unending. Thank you my bosses.
I need una advice BIG TIME!

If you're really keen on getting funded, then you may already be too late as it's way past the deadline of most schools. Meanwhile there are still a handful of schools with deadlines of March 1st, but I doubt you'll make it through the application considering all that's required to get your application in.

I'll advice for your to aim for spring or fall 18, that way your choices will not to necessitated by deadlines but by quality.

Success

Very true boss. I guesss she's very right then. I'll just advice her to do something that revolves around that course first, thhenn shift base after graduation. If she can do something like criminal justice or psychology, or what program. Do you think sshe can go for as a prerequisite.

Both are okay! Psychology is very interesting! I lecture it.

I think the person is planning / hoping to end up with a job in the USA, not to return to Nigeria.
This is quite possible, especially if they get exceptional grades as this is what employers are looking for.

I am talking about possible interview questions. If she cant analyse those questions, why waste visa money?

Unfortunately, contrary to your believe, no one will teach you the bolded at those universities abroad. The so called expert you flew in too fix the problem is most likely a technician (equivalent to OND) qualification in Nigeria. They learn on the job in apprenticeship programme (especially in the UK) or on-the-job after basic qualification.
"After one or two years", you will realise that Masters is just a waste of your time if you want hands-on technical experience.

DeeTus:
There are jobs. Nigeria needs more and more highly skilled professionals. Trust me.

There are machines and the foreigners who work here are paid $100 per day. So, I cleverly asked them to keep mum to allow a local electrical engineer repair a machine for us. He said we have to change something and was using screwdriver to cause more damage. He was obviously doing a guess work. Then one of the foreigners came, pin-pointed the problem and fixed it immediately and the machine started to work again. The electrical engineer became ashamed of himself.
I felt moved. Really, I have decided to learn these machines. Maybe, after one or two years, whoever that contacts me would have to pay at least half of what foreigners here are being paid for me to get the job done for them and save more money for these companies.

The flight tickets of these foreigners alone cost millions of naira. Not to talk of accomodation, food and so on.

Certificates without great skills cannot take you to the Promised Land.

Exactly. That's what i'm talking about. Skills are very, very vital. Certificates without skills is no no.

Organizations want skills, not really certificates. Keep your credentials aside and show us what you can do.

The Surface mail/NIPOST is 2000 but is there any assurance that the document will get to its destination?



ImpeccableOne:


If the deadline for receipt of your IELTS scores is still far, like six weeks away, you can send via surface mail/NIPOST. Ask them at British Council for this option. Usually, by default, they'd inform you of the courier option first which is one ridiculous amount. I think the NIPOST option is N500 or so.

Your school should be the one to send it but if you have a good rapport with those in charge you can collect it from them and send it to WES yourself via courier if your school is not using courier..

But let them be aware that WES will contact them to ask about the authenticity of the transcript and they should be ready to tell them they are the one that issue and mail it out

My dear, don't discredit the Naira just yet. It has appreciated from N520 to N505 from 20th to 22nd Feb. The person who needs Naira will buy when they need it. Naira is still on offer guys! N375 to $1.
If you have GTB or FBN acct, you'll get the Naira in your account as I hit the submit button on my internet banking. No NEFT delays.

Well, everyone is free to give their own quote. Do you know some people travel back to Nigeria with Dollars and exchange it at those BDCs at the airport even today? Some even do that at the bank...though very few, but I know it still happens.
Not everyone is seeking a gain in that way...some will be satisfied with N375.

Even though we are in the US, let us not glory in the fact that the Naira has depreciated to such a ridiculous level. We all have family and friends back at home, and we know how the situation is affecting them. Inflation is going unchecked and I feel pained as though I'm still in Nigeria. I don't desire that the Naira continues falling. I hope it appreciates. You too should hope same as well. If you are desiring that it should get worse, you are wrong...so wrong.
You have family and friends back home...besides not everyone in Nigeria can immigrate abroad.

For those interested, I've got as much Naira as you want at N375 per $. Not limited to $200 or $500 or $1000 equivalent value.

There are mallams/BDCs in the US who can exchange the naira for you to dollar. Please go to them and transact. You will know how far.

And dont get it wrong, we are not hoping the naira falls, we want naira to appreciate exponentially. That will take some time

Also, you can send the naira to your friend in Nig so he can try and do Moneygram for you. You will get the dollar at a fair rate.

PS: We too have surplus naira, and at 375? We would have changed our naira to dollar since. At least, for now. Naira will rise again.
