Fellow Nairalanders,

I just wanted to add a few comments following recent postings by some people regarding Fairliegh Dickinson University Scholarships. Comments like the ones posted by Beelala and Jarod certainly would not encourage individuals that may have beneficial information to share.

To the two of them all I can say is I have not asked you for money nor directed anyone to come to me for anything. For your information, I don't even live in Nigeria. I found some relevant information which I felt people might benefit from back home and posted them here. I would have thought the right thing to do if you doubted the credibility of the information is to research or contact the university directly but people would rather open their large gobs and yap. If it helps visit http://view.fdu.edu/default.aspx?id=3553 and search for scholarships. I obviously benefitted from a Full Scholarship for my Masters Degree so I know there are scholarships out there. You only have to find them. Thanks Beelala and Jarod for the insults and name-calling.

Kind Regards,

Megzyone
