This means that if you get a full assistantship, you will not pay a dime in tuition. You will have to still pay campus privilege fee, reduced health insurance fee and engineering equipment fee if you are in the college of engineering. Campus privilege fee is about 380 dollars if you take 9 credit hours, TAs pay 150 dollars instead of 500 for health insurance, engineering equipment fee is 171 or so. I am not sure of your department as the fees might slightly be different if are not an engineering grad student.

You should ask graduate program director.
As a grad school applicant, the least you can be is to be proactive. Don't dull!

I have successfully completed this evaluation stuff a long time. Did mine in Lagos. You will just contact WES direct and they will add it to your outstanding charges that's all. When you make the payment they'll ship the documents in abt 3 days via courier. And after that WAEC will send through the initial way you sent the other document to WES without any charge. But am not sure that one in umahaia might be like that. But mine was sent again through courier for free back to WES after they verified the results.
Hope this helps.

Thanks a lot for your help. I am really grateful. Yes my documents were sent from the WAEC Head Office at Lagos (I learnt they are the only ones that can send documents to institutions abroad, branch offices are not authorized for such duties) but an order can be placed through a branch office, which will send your application and necessary documents to Lagos, while it's processed from Lagos head office and then sent abroad. That's exactly what I did through the umuahia branch office, and my documents were courier ed directly to WES by Lagos Head office.
I hope if I order for a courier from WES to send my docs to WAEC, the verification will be done immediately and courier ed back to WES by WAEC without any additional fee. I can't wait for standard posting, it takes years. I have limited time. Thanks once again. I appreciate so much.

imperiouxx it is a ponzi scheme that has been
controversial in Nigeria. It was found by a Russian
criminal and it has gone mainstream in Nigeria now.
Even the federal government and the CBN have disavowed the program
which has invoked backlash from those who are into it.

Hello, everyone.. i have been following this trend for a while now, and i must say this forum helped me a lot in getting my f1 visa this morning at the Lagos consulate...

my interview was for 6 30am today .. fast forward to the transcript cos i no sabi talk too much

me; good morning with a wonderful smile
vo; are you going to study too? *frowns face* like say i dey owe am..

me: yes i am * i frown my on face too* looking straight into her eyes
vo; what school and course

me; business administration with a concentration in international business.. at Lincoln university Oakland California
vo; why international business?

me; well i work in a very competitive organization, and for anyone to get a promotion you would need an added educational qualification, i want the best for my self and since i already have a bs.c in business admin i decided to stay in my area of interest.

vo; why this school?
me; it was recommended to me by a prof in my the university were i had my bs.c and also the tuition is very much inline with my mums budget for my studies..

vo; what school
me; HNAUB

vo; what does your mum do?
me; she is a business woman, she has a manufacturing company the deals on plastic chairs, tables , plumbing pipes, and also sales and distribution of building materials..

vo; have you traveled outside of Nigeria before
me; yes to the UK

vo; are you married;
me; no

vo; any child?
me; no

vo; do you stay with your parents presently
me; yes i do

vo; OK i would be approving your visa* at this point i didn't hear nothing again, *my ears went on auto deafness.* passes my i-20 to me and the white paper..
me; Thank you.. na so i bounce commot


no documents asked. i didn't write any single exam, my GP IN SCHOOL was 2.50/4.. i did everything with faith and i didn't put all my hope on the visa, so i was very relaxed even in the midst of the denials, i still composed my self, looked straight into her eyes from start to finish.. in all, confidence is the key ,yes i was nervous when i started seeing blue paper from left to right, but i stayed calm, and i spoke with so much confidence and am sure no single person behind me heard my transcript cos i didn't have to shout to impress the vo i spoke my mind and that did it for me... am only 23 but i am over 6ft and i look way older than my age. i think that played a Little in me being calm and relaxed...

please anyone going to lincoln uni in Oakland or California , abeg kindly holla at me..

once again a very big thank you to you all, God bless you all bountifully . i am really grateful

If that's the case, then it's better to use courier service to avoid wastage of time. Yes what you wrote was correct. You always welcome.

He or she will take it easy on him and you can intelligently divert his or her attention with regard to the situation.
