PTDF LSS scholarships are only tenable in Nigeria Federal universities it's part of the criteria for award. I advise you seek admission in a Fed University ASAP
Re: 2017/2018 PTDF Scholarship Scheme (Overseas And Local) by papyrus2(m): 8:24am On Dec 04, 2019
If you have been awarded LSS and looking for admission, just come to ABU Zaria and apply. Tell them you are sponsored by PTDF and you will surely get admission.
Forms are currently on sale.
Re: 2017/2018 PTDF Scholarship Scheme (Overseas And Local) by joshuachuks93(m): 2:20pm On Dec 06, 2019
PTDF has sent mails to LSS awardees to update details on the scholarship portal @ scholarship.ptdf.gov.ng
Re: 2017/2018 PTDF Scholarship Scheme (Overseas And Local) by Hannania(m): 3:05pm On Dec 06, 2019
previous awardee! about the tuition fee, are we putting our 100level fee or that of the subsequent years? that's for LSS undergraduate.
Re: 2017/2018 PTDF Scholarship Scheme (Overseas And Local) by joshuachuks93(m): 3:43pm On Dec 07, 2019
2017 LSS scholars please help, does PTDF reimburse payment for acceptance and tuition fee for PG or strictly tuition fees?

Hello, please I need an advice on this.
I am a graduate of mechanical engineering but presently teaching in a public primary school in Kaduna state. I currently registered for PDE which without it we will be sacked ( December deadline for unqualified teachers). Iam one of the Msc local awardees, the just released list. I can't combine the two (Msc and pde). I don't want to loose the two either. I want to retain my teaching job because my family depends on it. the questions that worried me are:
1. Can I defer the Msc Lss to 2021 without admission letter
2. if yes, how can I defer it.

I think you can only defer when you have an admission offer already. For instance you cannot update your details on the portal without possessing an admission offer letter. Even if you bypass that, during documentation you you must show evidence. I would advice you seek for Msc admisssion immediately,you can then defer in the university. Alternatively you can chat the PTDF team via whatsapp (Chat Only)

Most/All scholars here are skeptical about giving info on the worth of LSS. Imagine getting an answer like 'You will be told during induction'.
I promise to make known everything after our induction including the award letter.

Hello guys
I understand that there is a Whatsapp group for the PTDF LSS scholarship awardees. Thus someone cannot get updated information from this forum again. Please, the admin of the WhatsApp group should kindly add me 08103664357. Also, anyone with information about the payment of scholarship should please kindly let me know if they have started paying for 2018/2019 session. The payment normally comes from July-August, but this I September and I have not received anything. I have written an email to PTDF to inquire about this, but no response.
My name is Chukwuebuka, from U.N.N., and I am a PhD 2017 awardee.
Thank you

This present OSS application is for schools in Malaysia, Germany, China and France. A personal statement is compulsory for MSc. That's what gives you an edge. Make sure you compose a personal statement that will sell your ability and readiness to win the scholarship.

PTDF ABANDON 2016/2017 LSS SCHOLARS FOR 11 MONTHS
Last year we rejoiced with our families and colleagues when we were shortlisted for this scholarship. As awardees of the prestigious PTDF scholarship, we felt welcomed and proud to be among the brightest minds during the three day (15th-17th July, 2016) induction ceremony held at the PTDF towers in Abuja.
We were mandated to secure admission into any Nigerian university and tender copies of the admission letters to PTDF before the scholarship could take effect. Some of the Postgraduate beneficiaries had to source out for loans to settle their tuition fees for 2016/2017 academic session in anticipation for a payback with the PTDF grant but to our shock nothing has been paid for the last 11 months and already PTDF management is making efforts for the 2017/2018 scholarship aptitude test. We are currently threatened by our individual schools not to allow us write exams, defends proposals and projects.
We will like to state clearly our displeasure to how we have been neglected by PTDF management. This is exactly about 330 days and we are tired of the unfulfilled promises by the management. PTDF management have made all possible efforts to pay our colleagues that were sent abroad for their master’s degree (OSS scholars). Their payments of school fees has been made and their stipends all paid. If we look at the amount PTDF spend on one OSS Scholar is enough to cater for 20 LSS Scholars, probably because the management don't want to be disgraced internationally thereby, all efforts are put in place to meet up to their demands.
We were told along the line that it is because of the CBN policy on TSA, but we all know that it is easy to process domestic funds transactions than oversees transaction and we are tired of several futile documentation process. The LSS Scholars have virtually done atleast three or more documentation on different occasions just for this scholarship, this can only mean that PTDF has no database or something is fishy somewhere. We will recommend that the management should recruit new brains that can design a good database for them.
We will quote a statement made by the Executive Secretary, Dr. Bello Aliyu Gusau, "He said however that PTDF will not succeed in the attempt to domesticate its training activities without a solid partnership with the universities in order to sustain the quality and integrity of the academic training programmes offered to the students. According to him overseas scholarship scheme is not sustainable therefore they will put more efforts to sponsoring and developing local content. We will categorically state that this is but a public statement, because if the management actually are serious with what they said on media, we will not be calling the attention of well-meaning Nigerians and the presidency.
Finally if the management are not set to pay our funds they should come out to the public and declare that they have cancel our scholarship and state reasons and let every poor Nigerian know that the country has no capacity to sponsor his/her education in any way.
