ExpertNLer:
how did you know you were shortlisted for local? I think the PINS for local and oversees will be different

I checked and was instructed to select my test venue. Yes the pins are both different

Yildiz:
it seems if you apply for both you only get shortlisted for local. Probably because it was the first applied. I think they use that as a way to reduce the candidates

Really

omgtzsammie:
please who has gotten the mail.. i jst spoke with the flexisaf guys and they said no mail have been sent..

pls do u knw if d form is still on sale??

No oh, just found someone who got shortlisted for both

Is this scholarship also for undergraduate

Hallo All,

I hope you all are doing good. I am still my very self and I am very sorry to have been off for a while and I trust you all are doing good. Just a quick information. I am Ellacity and currently a PTDF scholar, doing my PhD in Germany. Just start getting prepared because the interview usually come like a thief. Two, dont just think you are going for an interview but you have to see it as an opportunity to showcase what you could do and what you know how to do. A good proposal and defense are all it takes. Mine was in Enugu last year and it was as planned. Dont mind the spying eyes of the professors and experts from the field because they dont know everything, so little research throws them off balance. Remember you are in competition and you must use all you have to hit the competition.

Anyways I will give updates as time goes on and you could be one of the lucky ones, congrats for the nominated candidates.

Ellacity

please, are they sending mails??

blackdream:
was not shortlisted but no problem

Sorry, But what's your class of degree

Please, are they still shortlisting? Or they're done shortlisting?

ExpertNLer:
Yes, but a friend of mine wasnt as he was told "You have not been shortlisted"

What's your course of study and class of degree?

Thanks Ellacity! I've seen your posts from way back. Welcome back and we would be glad to receive your updates.
Cheers!

who dem con shortlist na

Sure dear,

I will always try as much as I could to help my anticipated scholars....We from poor background have only education to rely on and hoping something good could come from our intellectual flexing of our brain. In coming days, I will possibly send across some selected questions and how to tackle your interviewers. And I hope to get more people here in Germany or better still in UK....though my masters degree is from the University of Manchester and still by scholarship....Dont even think I have a superior degree, NO......at least 2.1 is a good start and your personality is the bus stop. I wish you the very best.

@Ellacity, will they still send mail?
Is it likely they send mail that you're qualified even after the portal say you aren't. and you check back and then see you are actually qualified

To be sincere I can't agree less with what you've posted.
I trust your studies are going great. It's good you're making a positive difference alongside the veteran Dmainman. Thank you!

I was shortlisted for Msc. LSS. Though I applied both

I was not shortlisted, does this mean my Daad application is hopeless?

irumole1975:


Sorry, But what's your class of degree

Second Class Upper

Please how many people will finally be given the scholarship per state? And how will it be shared according to the different categories?

For those of us who have good grades and have not been shortlisted, what is our hope of been shortlisted later. Or could it be that if the portal does not select you, you can probably receive mail of been shortlisted for the interview.

What's the deadline for venue selection?

How I won the Petroleum Technology Development Fund (PTDF) Overseas Scholarship to the UK


Tips on How To Ace The PTDF Scholarship Interview[

Abokii8:
Yes
you can now select your interview centre on the portal.

Just checked my application and I was shortlisted. But when I click on submit button, all I see is, your details has been updated. Is this the same response everyone gets?

I applied for the foreign scholarship though. Lol.

Also, I have a good paying job, it pays more than 200k. The firm wouldn't want me to go, I have been thinking if I should continue or go for the scholarship. Was praying that I wasn't shortlisted. lol.

What do you think?

Oh...it's easy. Don't bother attending the interview, lol.

That would be the fastest way. Lol. But I like exams and interviews. Especially interviews lol.

I didn't know when I applied for this one. Just saw it and decided to quickly do it. I only remembered it when I saw the thread on front page.

please reply to my first question, that is the most important. I will definitely miss the interview if it will hold on a working day.

Pls i want to know who else is experiencing this with the portal, its showing me that the portal is closed for now. I want to try and review my status again. Thanks

Portal closed for now is also what I experienced.
