You have 7 days left, you can try. I don't know much about the university application. I'm applying for Edinburgh

Psalmist0101:


Nigeria is not among the countries with automatic app fee waiver. And I don't think I fall in other categories of eligibility.
I don't know what to do again.

You need to calm down and check the website properly.

The school states that there are two options for getting a waiver

1. To be from an eligible country
2. To be an Applicant of the Mastercard scholarship

Focus on the pathway of a mastercard applicant.

Try the link below https://www.mastercardfoundation.fund.cam.ac.uk/apply/how-apply

Psalmist0101:
Is there anyone applying to University of Cambridge Mastercard foundation here?
How do we go about the application fee please? The fact that we need to be offered admission by the school first before MCF consider our application makes it more complicated.

You should check the school's website because you may be eligible for the application fee waiver.

sholzy23:
Yes, am applying for the distance online learning, M.sc Climate change. I already applied to University of Edinburgh.

I thought you have to apply and get the mastercard scholarship 1st before applying to the University. That's what the school website says.

Psalmist0101:

I've tried applying but the site hasn't been going through since 2days ago

Try different browsers like opera mini or clear your cache. You can also use vpn.

GozieOkoli:
Hello, Please if you have ever been awarded the GOI-IES scholarship for Ireland, could you share tips for application?

Hi, have you applied?

Drahl:

The answer to your question is NO.

Thanks

Hello,

Please I have a question, I tried creating and application and had an error with the passport upload, I had to create another application.

Will this be regarded as double application?

As PTDF stated in their website "Candidates with multiple applications will lead to disqualification"

Thank you for your answer.

Ayetobi92:
Hello, i am a fresh applicant and my capturing is tomorrow at Alausa. just saw now that my 2 passport photograph requested needs to be endorsed by my guarantor. is this really necessary?

Not your passport. The guarantor will endorse his own passport photo.

Nataba:


Update!!! I just confirmed now that the issue has been resolved.

I'm going there first week of January to collect it.

Special thanks to everyone who has made positive contributions here thus far

I pray for God's mercy and favor on my passport and unlimited visa as I pursue my ambitions special thanks to ekitimanalways u have been amazing God bless.

That's nice. Was there a crowd or were you delayed in anyway during your collection process? How long did it take?

Fahreedah:
Good afternoon house, thank you for for all the resources you put out hear free of charge, it has been 100% helpful, pls I am asking for a friend, He made payment and submitted his application for his passport last week, his appointment date for capturing is next week, but on the tracking portal the NIN verification hasn’t been ticked, should this be something he should be worried about?

Thank you for your timely response.

NIN verification will be done during the documentation process when the person goes for capturing and all.

TopeQs:
Wonders at Ikoyi passport office.


For the first time, I'll actually confirmed that something a sitting minister in Nigeria announced is working

My passport is ready today and I captured on the 27th of October, Friday. Less than 3 weeks and exactly 13 working days since I captured.

To say I was surprised is the least of it. I was just wondering what happened, I didn't pay for any fast track, although I was asked if I wanted to fast track it but because I need it early next year, I said no.

Now it's out.. now I believe Nigeria can really work if we want it to.


More details:
Registered online on Friday, 29th September.....
was given an appointment of 27th October, Friday.
Got a message that it's ready today, 15th, November. Everything took less than 2 months

Nice. Was it a text message you got?

Just an advice for Ikoyi passport applicants, when going for your capturing. Just walk into the passport office straight.

I made the mistake of following some thieves that led me to a place where I filled a form. After filling the form, they advices me to pay money to fast track it. And they tried to scare me into thinking that I won't complete my capturing that day.

However, I refused to pay and left to the passport office. I completed the whole Documentation and Capturing in 1hr 30mins. This was completely DIY.

Ayetobi92:
Hello, please are all these documents requested to be brought on the day of capturing truly needed? if not which are the important ones (first timer)

Nin copy
2 Passport photograph
Application slip
Appointment slip
Payment Receipt
Guarantors form
Guarantors e-passport data page
Guarantors form of ID (NIN or Driver's license)
Birth certificate (a copy and carry the original for sighting)
Local Government Certificate (a copy and carry the original for sighting).

If you're married/a minor/ lost a spouse, you have additional things to include.

AJOBI77:


I think so. I was called for address verification too when I applied . The lady visited my house for verification. No money required. Be careful not to fall victim to fraudsters.

Thank you

Hello everyone,

Is it true that the NIS verifies peoples address during the passport process?

I was called by someone that made this claim and he asked me to specify where my residence I located.

Hello everyone,

Does anyone have tips for capturing at Ikoyi office?

N8Heev:
Actually Abuja..and i got a mail this night for a meeting with them.... Thanks for your kind words�

Speaking of which...do you have any pointers...what can i expect on that day..

Thank God. 

It's mainly behavioural questions. Questions about your skills also. And your ability to work in a team with experience of it. Nothing special. And they may ask you what drives you or where you see yourself in 5years or so.

Goodluck.

N8Heev:
Lol...is there any hope left for the likes of us....No response sucks tho...

Anything is possible. Don't give up hope. If it's meant to be, it'll be. Were you for lagos?

queenDD:

Lescott7:

Lescott7:
