what if one does not have his/her international passport?

How did you register for ielts in the first place? Cos you're required to upload your IP

yes i know guys with 2.2. haven't seen anyone with third class though. your result isnt the only criteria, if you have first class and get 6 in ielts, you are not going anywhere and in case of my own department, we had an interview and even if you meet all the criteria and fail the interview, you are still out. your first degree will only be used when there are so many qualified applicants. Thats why its advisable to apply to many schools/courses

pls can I get your contact information.i need you to help me clarify a few things.please

I haven't registered yet. So I can't register for Ielts without a passport ?

House please what do they mean by a prospective applicant getting nothing less than 180 ects credits. Is it in any way related to our class of degree? And finally, is there any school in Finland that doesn't require a gmat for admission processing into a post graduate programme. Thanks.

What ever teaching u want to teach someone u should do it on this thread please, do everything in the open no private email exchanges here, except for study materials. that is why it's called an open forum. Many people are sending transcripts, so tell us what u know, just like you have been told all you asked too.

Besides UAF won't accept transcript not sent directly from your school with the sending school seal on it.

Yeah yeah.... U r right...but anytin that involves logic...I don't post directly online...am sorry but that just how I do my tin...who knows who is reading diz stuffs we talk here...we need to be careful of tinz we post online...anytin that involves wuru wuru, extra caution is needed........

For those that will be using NIPOST that way...don't let your school staple it or tape it (if u r from OSU, dey wil tape it b4 u knw it..tell dem to just stamp d seal, U.I will never staple or use tape, dnt knw abt other xools), nipost will reject it for R.mail...u will have to use the normal mail wc takes 21 working days at least (that's wah our xools use coz its cheap...200naira..that's y it gets there late)

Transcript of Records
The official transcript of records must include the following information:

full titles of the units that the student has completed for the degree

completion times of study units (or at the very least the overall study time at the institution)

Completion time of study shows in your transcript naa......it shows you use 8semesters which is 4years or in my own case 10 semesters, 5years.

If you are sending to a school within Nigeria, its 2k, also if you need a personal copy, its 1k but incase of of sending abroad na 10k ....I will be applying by next week....so by 2nd week of dec, it will get to finland.

Hello abeg guys does anyone know if the Finnish embassy would give visa to a prospective student interested in writing the entrance exams? Why I ask is because I have been in touch with Finnish Universities and most , if not all of them told me that the entrance exams would only take place in Finland. I really hope this wouldn't be a problem O !

Re: Studying In Finland (free Tuition) by manover: 2:03am On Nov 18, 2014
Prospective student should have a minimum of 180 ects, This means European Credit Transfer System (ECTS)
Example: Each subject is 6 ects

First Semester Course

Programming 6
Maths 6
Physic 6
operating system 6
Data Mining 6

Total: 30 ECTS

Maybe Second Semester you also take 5 subjects, and the total ECTS is also 30. Assume your undergraduate program is 3 years, which will be 6 semester, and each semester ECTS is 30 ECTS, once u sun all the 6 semester together you will have 180 ECTS.

But in Nigeria, we use Unit.

Example:

Chem 101: 3 unit
Phys 101: 3 unit
Use of English: 4 unit

Maybe you will take 9 subject in ur department, check the unit and calculate all together, those things should be on your transcript


Assume this are subjects done in first semester, and send semeste
