From your post, I think I agree with the GRE and TOEFL part. The other part is influenced by your own personal views.
1. Are you aware that there are over 4000 accredited schools in the United States? If EducationUSA can invite such schools to Nigeria for college fair, please madam, you have no business calling them dead schools!
2. Are you aware that all fingers are not equal? Everyone did not and would not come out with first class or second class upper?
3. Are you aware that everyone must not attend top schools?
4. Are you aware that some of those who went to your so-called dead schools get H1b visa sponsorship?
5. Are you aware that people further their studies for different reasons other than the limited reasons you gave above? The world is full of opportunities and everyone's path is different.
6. Are you aware that going to a top school does not guarantee a job offer after school?


My point: The flavor of your post was haughty. Hence, my response to you. Do not use your personal preferences to judge other people. They are not you. Learn to understand individual differences.

Make you no mind am. She created an account like 2 days ago and wrote this long-winded polemic on 4 different forums.

"Dead School"! What an obnoxious way to refer to an educational institution! undecided

I have been following this thread for a while, kindly help me please. I have a CGPA of 3.01/5 for my bachelor degree in Chemical Engineering and I also have weighted average of 60B+ for my masters degree in Chemical Engineering too. I want to do PhD in Chemical Engineering in US or Canada with full scholarship or funding and I am intending to sit for GRE and TOEFL to obtain high scores. Will I get admission with full funding please in US or Canada if I get high scores in GRE and TOEFL. Kindly note that I am intending to send my transcripts to WES for evaluation but I need to know my fate first before spending any money. I will be very grateful for your candid advice

You will never know until you try. No one can accurately predict your chances. Do well in your tests. Read this thread and also use useful resources in order to submit a good application. Apply early. You will be fine. Cheers.

EducationUSA have only two centers in Nigeria - Abuja and Lagos. Your choice will depend on your proximity to any of the location.

I do not know much about Lagos center, but for Abuja center you will have to come for an orientation first, which is usually every Wednesday by 10:00am, venue is art and culture area 10. After the orientation you may decide to register for membership, and I will advise you to.

Your last statement limits your drive and determination to want to go through this process, though I understand you need to do the cost/benefit analysis before you dive in.

As for your undergraduate GPA you can not change it, however I see you also have a masters degree which is a plus on your application. To be candid, we can't put a specific value on your probability of getting admission and full funding.

My advise for you will be to work on acing your TOEFL and GRE, you can make up for your weak GPA in your SOP. Select you schools wisely, if you have to contact the grad coordinator of every school you want to apply to do.

Also, try and get your masters thesis published, build other aspect of your profile. The US application process is very complex and nuanced, there is no ideal recipe on what do and what not.

Good luck.

I am looking forward to the answer to this question.

A friend of mine can't access her TOEFL result on the ETS website. And her visa interview is next week. It is a worrisome situation.

Please, I am not saying the people here are using s lipsrsealed lipsrsealed n cards but I need to be enlightened on how you can afford to pay at these cheap prices.

I'm eager to be enlightened myself because I am about to register through one of these guys but my gut feeling is telling me to desist.

It is a conundrum to me. Even though I wish the registration fee was not increased recently, I still shiver at the idea of registering even at a cut-price to these faceless guys.

They should just come out and clarify the issue.biko!

You can apply. I guess you mean fall 2019? Just submit your transcripts so far. Are you interested in a PhD related to your first degree or a DBA ?
