There's not much to shed other than the fact that I applied to the school and indicated on my application that I want to be considered for funding. The only thing i can advise is to put your best foot forward. Submit your best scores, work hard on the essays and wow them during interviews. Show them why you should be in their school and how that'll help you achieve your goals. The school is pretty generous with funding, so the most difficult part of the process is getting accepted. Your resume should also not be found wanting. Put your best foot there, as well. I wish you all the best! In case you're wondering benefits of the fellowship, it's full tuition waiver for the two years and monthly stipends. sirgigs: 1 Like 1 Share |

lionlee216:no I didn’t, I only paid the passport fee online (120$) then did a print out of the payment receipt and the passport form which I filled online also and took it to the embassy. They said the passport would be ready in 3 weeks but I gave them a reason why I needed the passport ASAP, the consular asked them to print it out for me ASAP but they couldn’t get signal from Abuja (bad signal that day) until the next day which they did and gave it to me without paying any extra fee, I even offered the person in charge of printing a tip he refused it (was surprised) this happened last year Mind u, this was done at the embassy in Spain I had to travel from Portugal to Spain because the embassy in Portugal does not issue passports |

wolex2090: Hi, I cannot share information here that is wrong - that is why I comment only on issues I have a very strong knowledge of. I'm not one of those that throw comments on every post here. You don't need Nairalanders to share their experiences for you to believe that someone can do an MS in Computer Science from a BS in Psychology. Not only Nairalanders are students in the US.

Hello house. I just did a calculation. With the muslim fast starting tomorrow and ending 28 or 29 days from now. For those who have choosen 3rd or 4th June for their interview and most likely these dates should be a public holiday. What advice can you give?..an immediate reschedule of date or this holiday wouldn't affect the embassy? |

wolex2090: Change is constant in life .... the fact that you choose a path 10 years or 5 years ago doesnt mean that the path you have to take for life. Me self i still trying to figure what i will do when i grow up I think its ok to change path but what is key is been able to express yourself in a very articulate way, why the change and your future goals when asked... hence why it help if youhave work experience or something to relate it to . Once you can do that then you are good to go. But in an interview if a Vo spot something different and you cannot say why confidently and reasonable then its becomes an issue 5 Likes |

Sending love and light to your friend from someone who found uploading her passport photograph extremely challenging as well. The thing suffer suffer me I no lie you, the site just dey speak big big grammar every time, the kin passport e no gree collect. I even run con here come beg for help too sef. Las las, e collect ![]() At the end of the day, my experience taught me few things: 1)The site dey craze for daytime sometimes, the madness dey cure as from 12 midnight down, e go be like say dem pour am ice water. I pray she has a personal computer ![]() 2)Let her ensure she has a strong network connection. 3)Does the passport photograph meet all the standards specified? 4) Is she trying to upload a scanned version or the original soft copy? I ask because scanning altered my passport quality, it shrunk the size, made it less clear and all that, the site kept rejecting it. If it's a soft copy, was it sent through WhatsApp/Email or directly to a storage device? I ask because WhatsApp is the enemy, it compresses pictures, diminishes the quality and all that, except you deliberately send the picture as a DOCUMENT(that way, the quality remains unaltered) I may not have been able to answer your question or provide the necessary help, but I pray this information would be useful, one way or the other. At all at all na winch, I dey go sleep ![]() ![]() ![]() Allylic: |

TokeOlawunmi: Hmm... that's a tricky one. You will be expected to justify why your "mentor" is supporting you. One person may give it a cursory treatment, another may zero in on just that part of your application. To be honest though, 'mentor' sounds abstract. The qualification for anyone to become your mentor is subjective. So to the VO, why would a random person you adore spend that much on you? But if you cannot do anything about it, then you have to prepare to answer why a mentor with his own family and challenges is choosing to spend thousands of dollars on your education abroad; especially when the money involved is a significant percentage of his bank statement. 1 Like |
