i'm planning to go direct(NDA)

Madawaki01: i'm planning to go direct(NDA)
Wao direct is very very very difficult.

I'm not discouraging you though but I tried it for three years, I wasn't successful then so I entered the university. I still haven't given up...I'm planing to apply for direct short service, and then convert to a regular officer. That would be around July next year.

I'm sure you know basic criteria for the direct one!.

Harjibode: I Am A Guy Wit Some Fat Dont Knw If That Will Hinder My Being Admitted...HollaASAP
My dear loose some of your fatness.

Their screening is very strict...a typical NDA admission list shows not more than 6 and not less than 2 people from each state.

What I mean is that if 150 people from Anambra state purchase the form and sit for the exam, only about 3 or 4 would be admitted...and that's how it would be for all the 36 states across the federation, until they get their desired number of successful candidates.

Its really very difficult.

So work on yourself properly so as to avoid unnecessary disqualification.

Good luck.
Re: Nigeria Defence Academy Prospective Student,let's Meet Here. by Nobody: 10:49am On Sep 16, 2012
@crazyman.....Thank You Very Much....#Will Do That
@OnTheOtherHand....do they release only admitted candidates result or all result b4 admission list
Re: Nigeria Defence Academy Prospective Student,let's Meet Here. by CrazyMan(m): 12:17pm On Sep 16, 2012
Harjibode: OnTheOtherHand....do they release only admitted candidates result or all result b4 admission list
No...they release all results just like the normal university system. Usually, the exam is written around February, and the results comes out around...April.

Then they short list the successful ones...the then short listed successful candidates would then proceed further for an interview, screening, and physical clearance. Its during this stage that your height, your weight, your medical records, your Nationality, if you have any criminal record, the originality of your "O" level results etc...would be thoroughly checked.

During this stage over 65% of those that were short listed would be dropped due to one reason or the other.

The remaining candidates who successfully scale through this stage would become bonafide cadets of the NDA.

But you must note that even as a cadet, you haven't totally escaped the elimination process. Elimination and expulsion would keep on tormenting you until the day you graduate and become a 2nd lieutenant of the Nigerian Army...believe me that would be the happiest day of your life.
Re: Nigeria Defence Academy Prospective Student,let's Meet Here. by Nobody: 11:01pm On Sep 16, 2012
Pls...What Is Te Average Weight To Be Met Cos The Last Time I Checked I Am 82
Re: Nigeria Defence Academy Prospective Student,let's Meet Here. by CrazyMan(m): 12:39pm On Sep 17, 2012
Harjibode: Pls...What Is Te Average Weight To Be Met Cos The Last Time I Checked I Am 82
I think the average weight there should be around 70-75kg...therefore I would suggest that you loose some weight. You can also try early morning jogging...you won't know the importance of it until you get there.

But the main criteria that they would look at during your screening wouldn't be your weight they would check if you're physically medically fit...and also, your height, which must not be less that 1.68m...that should be about 5feet 6 inches.

Anything less than that, you would be sent home.

Your parents have to give you the green light...most especially if you're below 18.

Therefore, I would suggest that you try and convince them...give them strong reasons for your choice, and I'm sure that they would reason well with you...good luck.

lathyph: @crazyman,is there going to b a thoroughful training after being shortlisted?
Yea there would trainings. But the training would be mainly for further screening...once they've gotten the exact number of people they need, the successful ones would proceed into the Academy (university) for your main course...that should take about 4 or 5 years depending on your course of study. After which you would be given the rank of a 2nd lieutenant of the Nigerian Army.
