Mr it's even awkward, I see u know better than the panelist!

It helped me ooo. just watch this space I will be among those rejoicing when the list comes out.

Lol. I never claimed to know more than the panelists, it’s just common sense. Atleast I didn’t come here to show off my achievements. Just praying for God’s favor.

I wish you well dear. I pray we all come out on top!

Help me tell him and the other guy that was saying publication is expected only during PhD. You have to demonstrate your research potential since undergraduate level. Only if many have known this, going for postgraduate studies would have been a bit easier. That’s what those school abroad appreciates. I have seen a friend with 2:1 and with two publications got a fully funded place in Canada. That you have completed your MSc and have no publication is a red flag for advancing into PhD.
Bro, it is just an applause to having two publications but not a yardstick. There will always be a way to make selection tougher, that was what ptdf have done.

Let me just chip in on my experience with regards to awards.

I did not have any National Awards but I had some other awards which I did not take for the UK interview. At the interview the man interviewing me asked if I had any National Awards and I said no. He then asked if I won anything in my "department at University" or at "anytime in the course of my education", which I had won but couldn't present.

It depends on the interviewer and I have learned not to foreclose any thing, it is better it is rejected.

by National/International award, they meant any honour you have DOMESTICALLY (Nigeria) and OUTSIDE. be it customer care, best smile award, motivational speaker award. be it a school award or workplace or NYSC.
Not necessarily Academics alone.
all that is needed is just to show if uv been outstanding in any group (no matter how small the group is).
everything I presented was accepted from school to NYSC.
what I didn't try was Church Own...would have love to see the reaction though.

I believe the DPR own you're using as example may have concluded internally within weeks and they're just wasting some candidates time. Unlike PTDF, they don't publish names and aren't under obligation to do so.

PTDF publishes names, so it's natural to be a bit anxious. No one has to wait 3 months.

By the way this is a scholarship application, not a job application. The anxiety is natural.

They have not conclude d recruitment, believe me i know. The anxiety on scholarship application is less because u can always try next year or even dese year with oda scholarship bh with job d next time u get to try again if lucky will b next ten years or never.

At d bolded, what abt d pple that applied for china, france n Germany, how long av dey bn waiting. Thats our country for u.

I strongly disagree with you sir. you don't tell me I have to wait 10 years to get another chance when they are better options elsewhere.
but u see this Scholarship so. this is the easiest Scholarship Application I have seen.
No language test needed, passport wasn't a must, u dnt source for admission. if sm1 doesnt get it. then be prepared to fullfil dos righteousness elsewhere. u see where the anxiety comes in?

The list (UK SHORTLISTED applicants) can take as long as September before it is released.
But the fact that they(ptdf) are the once to apply to the schools means they will have to ask for the transcript of those who scale through before mid july or July ending. so I believe by ending June or early July we should expect some movements.

Hahn Ahn....People can speculate ehn... Award is award... Primary school speech and prize ooo.... Football and other sporting award oo... SUG award ooo.... Academic award....best wardrobe award... Most wanted award....most notorious award...i repeat . Award is award...ahhh guys took track medals and got their marks.... 10marks....4 awards max... 2.5mks each...lemme chip in something about the guy with a first class... Distinction....13 awards and presidential handshake.... There is something called minimum qualification.... For ptdf (MSC) the minimum qualification is a 1st class, 2:1 or 2:2 with industry experience.... A guy with only 2:1 is as qualified as the guy with first class, publications and awards (though marks are allocated for awards and publications but only if you get to the interview stage)...secondly, if MSc guys were asked for publication .....i see no reason why they will contact a PhD applicant without even one publication. ...so please let's all calm down and hope for the best

You might aswell ask, what will make the guys with minimum qualification get it ahead of me.... There are 3 reasons...
1.. SOP... you might think your SOP is the best... Infact it might be the best, but the guy assessing it might look at it from another angle... "yes his SOP is very good and well coordinated, but I don't think he wrote it himself or he's lying".... For example during my nysc....a guy was seeking for the seat of Secretary General of our CDS group... During his campaign he said something that caught my attention.... He said he will provide busses that will be conveying corps members of the CDS group to the meeting location every week... Yes that's good enough... But is it realistic?

Stop all these unnecessary speculations. If you have been contacted after the interview, it's because PTDF has assigned you to a particular school that further more requires you to take some additional steps to secure the scholarship. It doesn't mean you are on the final list automatically.

Infact, if I'm to be statistically unbiased then those contacted already have a slimmer chance of securing the scholarship, because if you don't meet up with the further requirements for your assigned school, you are out. Those who haven't been contacted have their options open especially those that did the UK interview and have not been contacted for FGC.

So if you have been contacted, kindly follow the instructions on the emails and pray to God you make it on the final list. If you haven't been contacted, just be patient. Don't let anxiety kill you smiley

Unnecessary speculations are made by those who don't care to show how their speculations will logically lead to reality. But the person I'm quoting isn't even in that category. The speculation is just invalid.

Now, you tell me how I don't stand a chance on the final list, if I've not been contacted. No. Try to convince me. Don't just tell.
Re: Apply for 2018/2019 PTDF Scholarship in Germany/France/China by yakbauer: 6:03am On Jun 11, 2018
Ah bros who am I to tell u? I dunno anything oh, as far as I'm concerned as long as the list is not yet out or an info is from a ptdf staff, everything is mere speculation. ur permutation might seem logical to u doesn't make that of others invalid or unnecessary.
even though I have spotted flaws in ur confident and logical speculation, coz those that have gotten mails were categorically told that they've been nominated by their home country, so it's safe to say they have been shortlisted in d FGC award, and I do not see anything out of d ordinary in the added requirements that the schools have requested for, anyone that has applied for BEA scholarship will know the requested info is a standard. then those that haven't gotten a mail but were interviewed for UK should still be hopeful
In the spirit of trying to keep this thread alive, everyone is allowed to make assertions till the final list is out.

Lol... I assume you would have been done with the celebrations by now - informing family and friends, the farewell party and all that. All that remains is fold your hands, do nothing and wait for the final list. But while your hope is at its summit, don't shoot down the hope of others.

BTW, You can keep yourself busy here by for instance asking or telling us how you are going about that police character report of yours or if you have any other challenge.
