So you mean China is for the Lowly qualified..
..Do you av proof to back it. Do you know how tough even the CSC scholiatship is?

People with 2.2 and HND and PGD win CSC MSc Chinese Scholarship. People with MSc with MPhil or pass grade win PhD CSC scholarship. One of my freind with 2.2 is now in China having won full scholarship last year. And this year, my mentee with HND and PGD has just been nominated for CSC MSc scholarship. He has even secured provincial scholarship.

This is about meeting the minimum requirements. Having 2.2 does not mean u are lowly qualified hence selection is not based on academics only. Other things like acceptance letter from supervisor, age, authenticity of medical endorsement, Publications, CV are considered. Different schools have different criteria.

Also, most China schools consider Pakistan applicants often due to their bilateral agreement. That is y u see most CSC winners are Pakistani. Advisable to choose China schools who aren't biased and accept Nigerians.

I won the scholarship last year but did not go to create space for those in the waiting list. Go to the Nairaland China thread for more information about CSC scholarship.

Haba oga, you've forsaken your members oh

There is no need to talk as no development yet.

Just put your mind off and wait for the list of winners published on PTDF website. If u have been contacted or not contacted by PTDF, u all have probability of being successful and not being successful. Different schools and departments have their way of doing things

Ok na

I won the scholarship last year but dumped it to create space for those in the waiting list.

Ok. Let me modify as I just see it as a slang. Thanks for correcting me though.

vantage7:
Some people are insinuating that securing placement (by PTDF) into a university is a requirement for your name to be in the final list. There is no way that your name won’t be in that final list if you’ve been contacted.

And as for the IFP matter, only the ones in that IFP supplementary admissions list on the IFP website as posted on here will go to IFP. Simple. So if there’s only two of our guys in that list as @Ddkaka asserted earlier, then only the two of them are going. All the rest shall be sorted out into other institutions. PTDF can not arm twist IFP into giving anyone admissions simply because they (PTDF) are offering a full scholarship. After all, literally everyone from any country that gets admitted into IFP is automatically on a full scholarship mainly provided by companies like Total. This whole process is one I’ve been through in the past.

Oga pray o. Nothing is certain in life. And we are in Nigeria too and u know our country. U guys should contact PTDF o as they might not be aware that only two people made it. Tell them u are willing to go to other tuition free universities and explain IFP admission policy so they won't think it is u guys fault.

Finally, pray your name is in the list that will be published. If your name is published on the website, then u are certain of winning.

DMainMan:

Not that. So you want to tell us that you took your time to apply for a scholarship, secured it and then decided not to accept it to create space for other people.

Make I no shake table this morning.

That’s true sha nothing is impossible in this country. But from what I know it is so highly unlikely that it is close to impossible sir.

Ok. But contact PTDF o and let them know u will accept any scholarship in any school. And explain the strict admission policy of IFP.

They might think that u are only interested in top schools like IFP. Please let them know that u can go anywhere so they have no excuse.

DMainMan:

Oh no it doesn’t affect me. I was just offering my two kobo. But I know those that it affects will take heed, so thanks anyways.

Ah ha! I bet it's more of the other things than the original reason you alluded to.

No wonder Pakistani dominates Chinese scholarship.

Do you care to mention some of the schools that accept Nigerians especially the ones that accepted you, your mentee and friend? I spent over 60k applying for CSC scholarship this year and there is no reply from them so far.

Also, Pakistani also dominates erasmus_mundus scholarship. They came fourth as the country that produced most scholarship recipient.. There is no single Nigerian among.

oga there is no table to shake... PTDF just made this Scholarship as simple as possible. if not, u would need ur transcript, passport, police report, language test before applying and other necessary logistics. the guy is right

Hahahaha hahahaha hahahaha hahahaha, abeg no shake any table, scholarship application are not all free. Na so e just be bro

Scholarship is about Quid pro quo... Something for something. You spend something to gain something.

How far with your IFP application @xkanta and @GraceM2017? If not, is there anything we can do based on the suggestions of our friends here.

Is there any IFP applicant here, please?

Oga CSC doesnot require language test from Nigerians. So basically you spent money on police report, medicals, passport and transcript.


All the same sha let's all keep faith alive for the final list. I wish us goodluck

Yes o. Ptdf is less stressful and so simple with little or no financial requirements.

I have spent money writing GRE and other exams with lots of financial obligation yet rejected. It is trial and trial till one gets success.
