Pls o guys, how do i defer my admission? Its obvious to me that i can't travel this year.

I am highly disappointed in PTDF. I have made the payment sum of #165,000 to my school because of deadline and till now nothing good is coming out from ptdf. Visa Appointment is no longer possible this year for Germany, and studies commences October. PTDF why?

Who ask you to commit your money when you are even sure whether you are successful or not. You guys just want to rush

I feel it's coming soon

Here is my theory:

Technically, if truly "PTDF is not unmindful of the fact that resumption is fast approaching" and indeed they "are taking necessary steps to ensure the list is released early enough for successful scholars to embark on their studies", today makes perfect sense for the list to be released. Then they would conduct the orientation next week, 21st-25th August. Then Scholars would pursue their Visas and make preparations the following week, 28th Aug - 1st Sept, and remember that that weekend is Salah so orientation may not be feasible the following week cos of public holidays. In a nutshell, if PTDF doesn't release the list today, the whole thing might spill over till the 3rd week of September barring any expedited plans by them, and then PTDF would be indubitably unmindful and oblivious of the fact that many OSS Scholars would miss the boat this summer.

Personally, I would defer my admissions till Spring which starts in January, 2018. Even if the list comes out now, and I'm successful as God wills, I would take my time to prepare adequately for the journey ahead and not rush into anything.

And I suggest to other indefatigable and unrelenting prospective OSS scholars especially PhDs who can cut the mustard to consider other options such as US Schools. Many of them provide full-funding for PhD students.

My only regret is that I put all of my eggs in the basket of PTDF and did not pursue other viable options for this fall. At any rate, I'm no longer perturbed as all things work together for my good - it's intentional.

Be prepared to use your money at first if you are successful. Ptdf payment doesn't come on time for you to apply for visa n other stuffs.

who has an idea of how much ptdf paid Brasil, China, Australia, Canada or US scholars. Is it same rate as UK

DMainMan:


PTDF will not only help you to process and pay for your visa but also pay for your flights. During my term, they also gave us three months allowance plus other stuff before we travelled.

But I heard last year, the allowance were not paid before the scholars travel. They had to use their personal money for living allowance for about a month before PTDF paid 6 months allowances to them probably due to TSA.

meelerh:


That's wats likely to happen this year too but not as long as 6months

Oscar442:
The number of people I know from Adamawa State certain that their names will be on the ptdf list is alarming. I just hope they stick to the allocations for each state.

hia!
