Re: Thread For PHD Students by husseinjnr: 11:46pm On Dec 14, 2014
A great way of getting admission easily for PHD is to write a good profile of your self and contact professors in your intended field of research. It's a painful process but it is worth it. They will review your profile and may be respond. When they respond to you, you establish a great relationship and show how serious you are.

Great one tracyxx, please use the resources above to identify a school of your choice and funding availability . You may want to identify specific supervisors who may be willing to supervise you. Kindly review carefully the supervisor's specialization and area of research interest. I look forward to your feedback on your research.

I'm in the process of contacting potential supervisors, hoping to get positive responses because it'll go a long way in the admission decision. It's a lot of work with all the documents they ask for, plus application and courier fees, but I believe it'll all be worth it in the end

@Priceless, can you please list the documentation requested for in details. Looking forward to your feedback. Thank you.
