ladybug2: Well, I have good news for you all. I just checked my school account and found I have been credited. I was probably paid yesterday. I'm sure yours and others in UK are on its way. 1 Like |

Nuel1647: Thank you for the info. It made me took the step to check my account and found that I have been paid. Sometimes, I really pity Mrs Seledi. She is the most email active person I have seen in Nigeria's public service. She tries to be reassuring only that she isn't in the position of decision making and like us, she feels a lot of frustration at the inefficiency at the top. Tough job for her! |

Thank you very much for the update. Hopefully mine gets credited this week. Thank goodness they kept to their promise. Mayflowa: |
Re: 2017 NDDC Foreign Msc And PhD Scholarship by ladybug2: 9:34am On Sep 16, 2018 |
Yes she has been the only one trying to give an update even when it's not good news but she still responds. I will thank her personally (after I have been paid, still waiting, lol). Mayflowa: |
Re: 2017 NDDC Foreign Msc And PhD Scholarship by Mayflowa(m): 3:16pm On Sep 16, 2018 |
ladybug2: haha. Sure you would be paid. Maybe we should do a commendation letter to her together when you finally get paid and if possible invite interested member of the forum to join us in this regard. This will energize her and spur her to keep answering scholars' emails no matter what. She does really deserve our commendation 3 Likes |

Re: 2017 NDDC Foreign Msc And PhD Scholarship by ladybug2: 2:57pm On Sep 17, 2018 |
I'm guessing you have not received yours as well. Same here (I'm in the UK). Cheers Nuel1647: |

ladybug2:hi ladybug. Have you been paid...PhD final year in mathematics at the university of Manchester..my school just told me. If I don’t pay will not collect my statement of result or certificate.need that statement for a post doc opening starting in mid October. |
Re: 2017 NDDC Foreign Msc And PhD Scholarship by ladybug2: 10:18am On Sep 19, 2018 |
Hello, no I have not been paid (yet). I don't know if any UK scholar has been paid as it seems only US scholars have received payments (I could be wrong). Ms Seledi isn't responding to her emails which is bizarre. I was aiming to give them until Friday latest. I am still hopeful. I suggest you contact Ms Seledi too and submit any overdue notifications from your school. unie101: |

Re: 2017 NDDC Foreign Msc And PhD Scholarship by ladybug2: 7:19am On Sep 20, 2018 |
Thank you. I will see what happens. The last time she responded to my email was in June where she indicated 'your payments are being processed.' and you are right as soon as we got paid in January, I sent an email right away informing my final fees were now overdue and she acknowledged it. Hopefully we all get paid and end this nightmare. irahub: |
Re: 2017 NDDC Foreign Msc And PhD Scholarship by Nuel1647: 11:13am On Sep 20, 2018 |
irahub: I don't think so. I wasn't paid in January and I have evidence that my name is on the list; and as we speak I haven't received payment even though my name is on the list prepared in February (not January). I guess those in USA got paid first as there was no need for any currency conversions since the scholarship is in US dollars. Hopefully people in other countries would get paid this week. |
Re: 2017 NDDC Foreign Msc And PhD Scholarship by Mayflowa(m): 8:29pm On Sep 20, 2018 |
Nuel1647: I don't think Irahub is exactly correct. I was paid in January just like Ladybug2. And I got paid again now. I believe the payment to UK was delayed probably due to processing. Only US scholars cannot be paid leaving out UK's. |
Re: 2017 NDDC Foreign Msc And PhD Scholarship by ladybug2: 6:49pm On Sep 21, 2018 |
Please who else has been paid (UK)?? Now I'm getting worried as I still haven't received mine. Fingers crossed. |
Re: 2017 NDDC Foreign Msc And PhD Scholarship by Nuel1647: 8:06pm On Sep 22, 2018 |
I don't think anyone has gotten paid in the UK |
Re: 2017 NDDC Foreign Msc And PhD Scholarship by ladybug2: 8:29pm On Sep 22, 2018 |
Yes, it doesn't seem so. Let's hope it is all sorted this coming week. Nuel1647: |
Re: 2017 NDDC Foreign Msc And PhD Scholarship by ladybug2: 9:29am On Sep 24, 2018 |
Guys, update from Ms Seledi (in response to my email). She said no one in the UK has been paid yet and in her words 'she is hopeful we will all get paid before the end of the week.' 3 Likes |

Guys, I have been paid. It just came in this afternoon. However this is the lowest I've ever been paid, a decrease of about £3500, or 2500 using the current exchange rate. Wow. By some divine magic £21300 = $30000 I.e an exchange rate of 0.71 instead of 0.76. It's good news all the same. 2 Likes |

ladybug2:I just checked my account.i was paid 19280 pounds.by my calculation, 3000 pounds less than what is actually due to me in accordance with the scorlarship letter. When will Nigeria be transparent?. Even the white lady at my school finance team found the situation beyond them. 3 Likes |
Re: 2017 NDDC Foreign Msc And PhD Scholarship by ladybug2: 3:03pm On Sep 27, 2018 |
Same here, they are not using the current exchange rate, unfortunately. That being said, I'm glad they have at least fulfilled what they should have done 9 months ago. unie101: |

Nuel1647:please I'm a fresh graduate and I want try to get this NDDC MSc scholarship.. Is there a way you can guide me as to how to go about it |
Re: 2017 NDDC Foreign Msc And PhD Scholarship by Nuel1647: 5:24pm On Oct 01, 2018 |
EfeJay: I would say this is a good place to start. go through this and similar threads. if possible follow links that show you the final list of previous scholars, so you can tell what kind of msc courses are acceptable and start seeking admision as soon as you identify an acceptable course that interest you. Then wait for the advert, apply, prepare, get your documentation ready, get a recommendation letter from one of the appropriate persons, take the CBT, do well above average, then go for the oral interview but this time you need to be excellent as it is responsible for 60% of the final score. Then Pray!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I would also advice that you get a January start date instead of a September, October or early November start date. |
