As was said by the 'onye ochas'...

Monday, 18th December 2017 all results would be available online,

...so was it done.

All results were posted to my account around noon, Fall 2017 is done and dusted.

I won the battle, got a perfect GPA.
All the Thanks be to God, I put in my best and he confirmed everything.

Wow, excellent result. This guy deserve many like let us give him 100 likes here.

MackyNaija:


I think they look at your raw grades to see how well you did in your undergraduate courses that relate to your current program of interest.

I also feel much emphasis is placed on your final 4 semesters, the graduate school collects your documents, creates a file and forwards to your department where they review it and recommend you for admission to the grad school.

If graduate school accepts, they then admit you into the graduate school/your program and possibly give you a tuition waiver.
A friend works in the graduate school, na CIA things - top secret - he isn't allowed to discuss much.

Chai. It just dawned on me how badly i have messed myself up.

Bro, nothing is impossible.


If you have lots of data and a working PC, search the web for US scholarships/waivers, you'll surely find one. Don't limit urself to america alone.


You can search Sweden, lativia and other schegen/EU countries....

NB: Canada and Germany is highly competitive

My friend's life is a testimony...he's in Idaho now was chasing chicks when he was applying

Still blaming myself, tho

Med? That's a different story, bro
You want to go and be chopping the hot cakes in Yankee?

It won't be easy with that grade, bro...you can apply for a scholarship and also back it with a good application letter stating why you deserve the scholarship.

Nothing is impossible, bro...I'm also applying for a scholarship and a school in Sweden is already at the verge of accepting me

I guess.

But the issue there is that, you'll apply to a school first and pay an application fee which is not refundable...

I payed 900 kronas (40 thousand naira)

Anahi:
It's actually for fall 2018. I'm even shocked they sent the admission letter this early. I just completed my application some days back

Good day Ma'am

I have completed my application to TAMUK on the applyweb but I can't seem to find a column where I can upload my SOP, LOR, GRE Score and transcripts.


I checked the graduate catalog for Electrical Engineering department I can't find anything like that too.


Are these documents not required?


And moreover if I'm to mail my transcripts and GRE scores can I mail the unofficial copies pending admission decision or it has to be the official copies all the way?

Many Thanks.

Belragazzo,
There's no provision for that on applyweb, you have to mail it to the graduate school.

I think you need to self report your scores but send all the unofficial documents to grad school.

....
They will received the test scores from ETS.

After admission and you wish to attend here, you will send an official transcript direct from your school to them or you bring by hand properly sealed.

You will also show them your original proof of degree certificate.

Sorry I'm just seeing this. You have to send your documents as an attachment to the graduate admissions email.

For the transcripts you can mail the unofficial one.

Ask people on-ground in your location how they manage that.

With what I've been reading here Congrats bro on your results, I have a question and I'm throwing it to everyone... I currently finished with a bsc in psychology and I'm hoping to switch to a health related discipline... Med and surgery etc.. But the issue is my o'level is not science based as i did not possess chemistry and physics. And i heard someone can do the prerequisites in form of pre med and the likes.. Pls i need someone to explain further

Happy new year bro

Unlimited22:

Happy new year bro

Happy New Year my people all over the world.

Wetin my eyes deh find, it finally saw it...

I like road trip, I like road trip - yankee road trips are on a different level.

Lagos to Abuja - 484 miles.
Lagos to Kaduna - 573 miles.
Oklahoma City to Kingsville - 622 miles.

I did the last distance the whole of yesterday.

The initial plan was to spend the entire holiday in school...

Lemme take a short trip to Houston, arrive on Saturday the 16th and leave on Monday the 18th.
I ended up staying till Friday the 22nd.

Previous night (21st) while talking to a friend, he said 'Macky, show Oklahoma na', send me your address I said..
I received his text and keyed it into Google maps - 7hours 30minutes!!! What ya say!

I almost chickened out Do I look like a Young Shall Grow Driver? but... the car is reliable and I am more reliable as a driver.
Na so I enter road.


Everything was smooth until I got close to Dallas/Fort Worth - the rains increased in intensity, visibility was zero, road safety deteriorated but the speed of most people driving didn't reduce.
I turned to a fowl, went to the extreme right lane and started to manage my 50-60mph (around 90kmh)
The speed limit in Texas highways is officially 75mph (120kmh), unofficially na 90mph (145kmh)

Finally left Texas and got into Oklahoma, na so I realise say temperature of Texas 45*F don drop to 30*F (around -1*C), mennn the cold was real, na freezer I don enter.

I finally got to Oklahoma City in one piece, 120 seconds to the apartment and it began to rain either ice block or light hail but it surely wasn't just snow.

I had a nice time through out my stay in Oklahoma, two of my friends live very close to each other with plenty money - welcome to the real oil and gas work , not the nAnsense they pay in port harcourt.

Omo, I jam one food like that - they call it Ayamase or Designer stew - I can sell my birthright for it!
How come I had never encountered it? The thing sweet, there are tutorials on YouTube on how to prepare it.

The temperature was unkind - hovered between 17*F to 25*F - going outside was a torture and these guys have to work outside for extended hours...
If you like money, go to Oklahoma to search for oil and gas work they are still recruiting - have a work permit is basically the requirement, limited or no work experience is okay, entry level positions are available. Make cold no kee you before the first pay check arrives.

The weather wasnt improving so I had to leave before I get stuck there, if the roads become filled with snow and slippery, bye bye to my education be that.

So I packed up, said my good byes and left on Sunday the 31st.
Oklahoma City to Kingsville - about 625 miles of road and 9 hours of driving.

Hello
Do you happen to know which school he is, in Idaho?

Hey Macky, did your guys do any US based courses before they got the oil and gas jobs in Oklahoma
