I just got the info you requested. The CISCO unit will only admit applicants within Cyprus or does that needs no visa to visit Cyprus. Therefore, you can only enrol in the Cisco program if you are currently undertaking courses in any institution in Cyprus or working legally in Cyprus with valid permit.

Best wishes!
Ok thanks

Yes you can apply to EMU...although EMU only has legal and signed papers with APTECH and APTECH transfer is a known system at EMU with defined number of credits to be waived. I have seen some NIIT students transferred to EMU and they also have courses waived. But may spend more semesters than those of APTECH. So you can get all your NIIT transcript, course description and then apply.

METU is a great university and well-structured and can also admit transfer students....BUT, to be admitted to METU, you must have scored/earned good grades in both your olevel and NIIT exams (e.g...A, B)

Best wishes!

It's not really very difficult to understand is it?
If you go to the cheapest school then there is no point bemoaning the fact that the education is not as good as an expensive school!
It's like people buying the cheapest airfare then saying that the service is not as good.
It's your choice, in this world you get what you pay for.

There are over 12 universities now in North Cyprus and you can browse to find more info on each. For now, I can only write or speak for METU and EMU. METU is actually strict and will only admit or award scholarship to brilliant students...they hardly bend rules when it comes to academic stuffs...EMU is quite flexible and enjoy the diversity already enshrined.

NOTE: you cannot buy a lion for the price of a rat...you have to choose to know exactly what you want...Price or quality or both.

Research-based does not mean you won't stay at the institution. Anyway, at EMU or most Cyprus PhD programs are run in traditional format (certain number of courses must be taken, student must pass qualification exam and then start research).

The first 2 stages (courses and qualification) are mandatory for the students to be in the university and after passing the qualification exam, the student may decide to undertake his/her research within the university or do it somewhere else based on the supervisor decision. End of each semester, student must be available for monitoring purpose and PhD seminar/activities undertaken during that semester.

Finally got my acceptance letter from EMU!!!! Thanks Mr. Wip!

Now I've got some confusions:

It says that I was awarded 50% scholarship... But the tuition 4,102.50 USD (inclusive of scholarship, Activity Fund and %5 VAT)... What does this mean? Should I cut this tution into two and pay 50% only?

Mr. WIP!!!!!

You have been awarded the scholarship. That's the amount you are expected to pay to the school. What department?

Yes application has been opened now in EMU. All applicants will be accessed for scholarship during the admission process and based on your result you will likely be awarded 50% discount.

University of Nicosia is located in South Cyprus (Another country different from North Cyprus), with different visa procedure. You will apply for the visa at Cyprus consulate in Lagos. You will have to send the university your health records and sponsor details. After then the university will submit to Cyprus migration board and if you are found eligible, your pre-visa will be approved and then you visit the consulate. The consulate may approve your visa if there is a logical reason why you are just starting undergraduate at that age and if you have good sponsor.

NOTE: south Cyprus is not particular about age but about money (if you are capable to pay), also if truly you are going to study.

HI Mr Wip, While reading through I saw this post. I am in the same shoes right now and I will like to confirm from you if the possibilities are high regards visa issuance looking at the age. I know u have stated your point but that's like 2years ago. Would you still recommend same advise? I am 29yrs old going for a Bachelors, have gotten an admission already with University of Nicosia and they assure me it's not a problem as long as all required documents are being met. They will be handling the whole visa processing and documentation on my behalf. Just an advise from you.

The school have said ok, why do you not believe them?
They are the ones sponsoring you for a visa.

The Visa procedure changes now at South Cyprus. For Most African countries, it will be submitted by the university on behalf of the applicants. So since the university already said no problem then...submit what they required from you. Best wishes.

Probably fear of the unknown. Don't mind me but you know the school ain't the one issuing the visa but I am going with their words still. Just a bit curious, I have been through a few denials in the past and I will never want to go through that phase again.

Yeah the procedures for Republic of Cyprus Migration have changed dramatically as from the previous semester and there is no need for student interviews any more, which means provided all the documents submitted to the College/University are genuine, correctly attested and submitted on time, the visa is almost guaranteed but not 100% ooooooooooooooooo



Note: Many parameters will be checked to ensure you are financially sound and don't have ulterior motives during the visa assessment.
