Hello fellow nairalanders, I also got the email to update my my admission status when it was sent to others but I can't find my name in the LSS list. Please did any other person experience this? What do you advise me to do??
Have you contacted them?

I could only contact Flexisaf guys who confirmed that I was shortlisted for the scholarship but may not have been awarded by PTDF because of my MSc admission was not ready then that they asked us for feedback on our admission status. But some awardees name were still published under "Further Documentation Required" which presumably indicates those that their offers were not ready as at then. I have gone ahead to secure Masters admission because of this scholarship. If I am denied in this way, it's horrible!!! Whoever can assist me is welcome. Thanks

Na WA o

Did you fill the questionare at all? Like did you reply NO and submit?

Yes I filled it. I hadn't secured any MSc admission yet by then. It seems I'm the only person having this horible experience.
Again, did you exceed the deadline for the questionnaire before filling it?

I solicit the assistance of nairaland forum members on this page. I don't have any person that can assist me.
Enclosed is the e-mail reply from PTDF's consulting firm, Flexisaf on my enquiry.

((Dear Stanley,

I sympathize with you on this unfortunate development but to refer to the email earlier sent to on updating your admission status, the mail read "successful shortlisted" this means you were shortlisted to get the scholarship but not yet awarded.


The PTDF couldn't have chosenĀ all successful shortlisted candidates and was careful not to give scholarships to those candidates who were yet to secure an admission to any local university. We encourage you to try again for the next scholarship scheme.

Sincerely

PTDF Scholarships Team))

It feels terrible to be denied this scholarship with such an excuse even when the published list also has names of those that hadn't secured admission as at then as well under "Further Documentation Required"

P.S. Currently I have secured MSc admission.

Good Evening Stanley,
I read your post for the first time that day the list of local awardees hit the website, I couldn't but sit up and take a concerned step to respond to this issue of denial and dissatisfaction, when that mail droped on update of admission status, everyone on this platform saw it as a success story but I was indifferent becos I was waiting for the aftermath of the response on the admission update, I didn't take any step on admission, 20k application form is not childs play, with this response from PTDF, restrategise and don't get discourage.

I think i should mention, after much restrain, that you and others carrying this notion are in a sorry state of mind, with due respect. And i hope you will give chance to people who still have faith in the system to adequately prepare for the exam. Many of these people here will appear on next year's trend discussing on how to write the test again not because it is rigged but they kept rigmarolling instead of having 'just a little faith on the system, no thanks to the quoted text on this message. You must agree with me that the list brought out by Ptdf is merit ( about 175 of them). If the problem is how manage there are more people than 175 being sent for study, then maybe u need to know more. Ptdf scholarship board is a channel for awarding nysc presidental scholarship, tetfund, pressid of blessed memory and federal government scholarship or so. In as much as i agree with you in airing your opinion, i hope i have convinced a few people who would rather have been discouraged by comments like this. The system still works.

Amount is between 700-800k per year. IPS those this is two years thus 1.4-1.6m

Not such but around that. But we are hoping it is 1m per year oooooo grin grin

Ok once they pay I will comment on this very thread
