Hello House! I am wondering if there's anyone in the house that is going to uk this year to further his or her studies. I will like us to rub her minds together. Personally, AV got offers from Heriot-watt Uni, RGU, Uni Aberdeen, Coventry and Salford. Am wondering if there's anyone going to any of the above institutions. We could share our thoughts and experinces together.

Jnr. Prof! Do u recruit only for Swansea University? Do U not AV link with other UK Uni?

Anyone heading for Westminster, London? Just got my admission for Masters.

Hey, have got my admission offer after 7weeks. But I have to write Ielts exam as my masters is for a science course. How far with u? Do u intend applying for their scholarships too?

hey peeps...pls do Nigerians win scholarships for UK uni? I nid help as I am about to apply. Thanks

Hello Donsly1, I first must commend you on such an informative thread. However, I'd like you to assist me in ways to secure a post-graduate Masters degree admission (in Wireless/communication/electronics engineering related course) in a UK or EU university (preferrably the non-competitive varsities), as i am very naive in it. I studied electrical/ electronic engr, with a CGPA in percentage of 79. I'm currently a 2012 batch B corper. I dearly look forward to a favourably response. My email if needed will be provided. Thanks. Yours sincerely.

Study in the heart of London at the London School of Commerce with partial scholarship for Nigerian students. Contact Okeh(princessagwa@gmail.com)for more info.

Yeah! I know a friend that just graduated from university of westminster and he was on full scholarship.

I just got a conditional offer from the same school, and I have downloaded their scholarship form. I'm required to write english exam though, cos they need the score and the reslut and then a 400-word essay. I hope I get lucky for the scholarship.

What course did you apply for?

Hey, got admitted for Msc applied microbiology and biotechnology. Am taking the ielts exam next month. I hope to send my application next month too. How did dat person wiin the scholarship? How many Nigerians usually benefit?

I got an offer for MSc Biomedical Sciences. I'll be writing my toefl exams on the 27th of this month. The person went through just this same process and he got shortlisted. He's a first class student also. I really can't place a figure on the number of nigerians that get this scholarship but I do know its usually very competitive. Much focus should be on the personal statement which is giving me headache, I think it really gives one an edge.

All the best in your toefl exam. I hope I can write persuasive enough for the scholarship. Put my trust in God. Do you know other scholarships for d̶̲̥̅̊aτ̲̅ school? Was your friend given a full or partial scholarship? When does the result usually come out? Sorry for my many questions.

Yea petrelis, U could get scholarship to study in UK Universities. Some of the Scholarships are sponsored by common wealth and other organizations, some by the school itself. Scholarship applicable to your school will most likely be advertised on the school website and respective deparment of the school.

author, the first thing for u to do is to find out if UI offers Master's programm on the course u're interested in. If u visit UI's website, u may be able to get more information about the programme u're interested in, and also their entry requirement. If u're lucky too, u could meet a fellow Ajuwaya who studied at UI, u could get first hand info too. But I will suggest, that u visit the school site.

Congrats on u're admission offer. How was u're TOEFL exam? wat score are u hoping for? just as u rightly pointed out, there are lot of Nigerians applying for the same scholarship so the competition is really high. So to stand out from the crowd, u need to present a nice personal statement. This is what might just give some people an edge over others that are equally qualify too. Am waiting to get some more good news from you. I wish U all the best Man.

Thanks for u're compliment emahnwel, I appreciate. With regards to u're postgraduate issue, u'll first of all need to decide on which of the country u which to study in, then wich of the schools further more also crosscheck their admission requirement, tuition and cost of living. It is only when u've sorted all this out, that u can then proceed to apply for the admission. As long as you meet all the admission requirement, the rest becomes easy and straight-forward. I wish u all the best.

Thanks man..IELTS seems more appealing to me than Toefl. It boils down to my preference since both exams are of equal standing any where in the world. Just pray d̶̲̥̅̊aτ̲̅ my scholarship application is granted. Are you based in 9ja or UK? I wouldn't mind if u tell me more.

Any1 here going to Uni Birmingham ds year?

Why is ds thread ds dry? Abi ppl aint planning on travelling ds year?..na wah o.

Not to discourage pple. I got two admission into university of leeds and university of strathclyde engineering but with no funding. I'm still hopeful for how I'll fund the admission but I'm reluctant to even use my own personal money. Im concerned about the cost benefit ratio of going to the uk to school especially when I'll be paying. I know a couple of pple that did masters in the uk and now they are in Nigeria looking for job after their program. After ur program finishes like this, they'll pursue u comot from their country. They dont want you competing for job space with their citizens. So you're on your own. I wouldnt advise anyone to school in the uk with his own funds tho except your papa na dangote and money aint a thing . I'm hopeful for ptdf too sha. God dey.

Nawa o, it seems ppl aint travelling dis year or are dey doing it lowkey, anyway who here is going to the Uni of Salford.
