I was randomly scrolling through nairaland in march this year when i saw the advert for this years uk scholarship. I decided to apply since it wont cost me anything but data. I was shortlisted for interview and also made the final selection. I am currently pursuing my msc in the uk in one of the best universities in the world, just because of a split second decision i made in applying. The scholarship is legit, and the selection process was merit based. I will advise anyone interested to apply and not be skeptical and hope for the best. They wouldnt have called for applications if the funding for sponsoring the scholars isnt available.Your flight, visa processing, fees and stipends will be taken care of by the scholarship. In our case, they even paid for priority visa processing. All the best.

Is transcript required for this application stage?? I thought they said only shortlisted candidates will be required to submit their transcript.

Why not ask your questions on this platform and receive your response? This is important because anyone who reads the thread in subsequent years will actually benefit from it.

Truth is there is no rocket science in getting the scholarship. Aside the favour of God involved, your ability to be smart and paying attention to minute details matters alot.

Second truth is... If you are waiting to get a sample Statement of Purpose, then i must frankly say that it is the beginning of failure. There is nothing as noteworthy and important as formulating the statement of purpose in your own words and your own experience. This is because in months to come, you can clearly defend what you have written because it typically embodies you.
1. You should be familiar with PTDF's vision and core mandates. Try to build your SoP around these mandates (Very Helpful).
2. Specifically mention what you intend to accomplish during studies. Focus on your strengths.
3. Be sure to state how the knowledge gathered from the studies can be applied in solving real problems; not really pertaining to oil and gas.
4. DO NOT for any reason mention that you hope to get a good job abroad after studies to practise what you have learnt.
5. It will be beneficial to state that you are looking forward to diversifying... meaning while focusing on your studies, you wouldnt mind acquiring other skills (mention these skills).
6. One of the mandate of PTDF is human capital development. so you are expected to show command of good level of leadership, communication, interpersonal and problem solving capabilities.

Finally like i always tell people, focus on building yourself. Truth is whether you are for MSc or PhD, three things should stand you are - Academic Qualification, Publications, and Awards and Membership of Professional Bodies. Not everyone would have a First class honours, but while someone with a first class might have a little advantage, a fellow without a first class honours can be chosen ahead of the first class (Trust me, i am not bluffing)!
My point is, do not lay all emphasis on the statement of purpose and forget other very important areas.

Cheers.
