catchdwind4rmkd: Yeah, I received the mail too.
It also contained the link for us to input our admission info.
But they didn't state if they granted our courses that are different from the awarded courses, yet they rendered strict warning about sticking to the listed courses and schools.
I'm confused.

manaja87:
Their major concern is the schools, not the courses. Once u have ur offer from one of the schools listed, u're in business!

catchdwind4rmkd:

Are you sure?
That's really good news!
Well, I'll give call tomorrow coz the mail didn't also confirm that we should arrive at the venue of the 10th as earlier advised.
Gotto be clear on this.

greatdave: There's gotta be a way PTDF can reslove this english language requirement dem Unis be asking for. Its Nigeria! We were colonized by the UK! We're part of the Commonwealth for Pete's sake!!

catchdwind4rmkd:

DON'T TELL ME U DIDN'T DO AS ADVISED HERE EARLIER!
IF U CAN FIND A WAY TO RESOLVE IT, HOW & WHY WILL PTDF DO SAME?
I PRAY & HOPE PTDF FINDS A WAY TO RESOLVE IT LIKE YOU SAID.
BUT I'LL BE MORE GLAD TO HEAR THAT YOU TRIED TO REGISTER FOR IELTS OR TOEFL, AND U ALSO TRIED TO APPLY TO OTHER SCHOOLS TO SEE IF ONE CAN OFFER YOU A GOOD COURSE WITH UR AVAILABLE CREDENTIALS.
REMEMBER THAT ENGLISH LANGUAGE WAS A REQUIREMENT DURING THE PTDF APPLICATION PROCESS, AND THEY ALSO SUGGESTED TOELF & IELTS FOR THOSE WHO COULDN'T MEET THE ENGLISH REQUIREMENT.

SO, I THINK IT'S NOT WISE TO WAIT ON PTDF UNLESS YOU INTEND TO DEFER THE SCHOLARSHIP TO NEXT YEAR WHEN YOU MUST HAVE GOTTEN YOUR TOEFL. I KNOW IT'S NOT YOUR FAULT, COZ THE LIST WAS RELEASED LATE, BUT YOU SHOULD PUT NIN YOUR BEST COZ THE EARLIER THE BETTER.

proteus1: @churky...same challenge I had too

Proteus1 so what did you do about the log in credentials.

proteus1:
@ churky01...still haven't had any head way about the login ish...but anyway I think is not necessary

silouette: Guys I'm trying to not get worried.

My school UCL has still not made a decision on my application and it usually takes them 6 weeks to do so even though I tried contacting them to fast track the process.

That means I should be expecting their response by the end of August.

Because of this I was unable to fill the form sent to our emails.

Which also means I won't get an award letter soon.

I plan to speak with PTDF on this during the induction.

I'll appreciate any advice or suggestions from you all.

Thanks.
why not try other Russel Group universities, if to said God forbid they reject your Admission than by september you need to start a fresh you would even try other good universities outside the Russel group like Kent or Edinburgh etc. you have nothing to loses because most Uk have free admission, with less than 3k you can apply to as many universities as possible the only undersize is that you need to paraphrase your personal statement alot
