Is It Possible To Study In Europe With NABTEB, ND And HND? by Ijomobi(m): 11:28am On Apr 03, 2020
Dear all,
Please I really need your help and suggestions, I have NABTEB, ND and HND in Architecture. I want to further my education in any European country, I have tried my best to find schools that can accept my education background either for Bachelor Degree or Master, but unfortunately most of the schools I mailed or checked their website asked for either WAEC or NECO for Bsc admission and they stated that my HND did not qualify me for Master admission. Among those country I searched are: Estonia, Lithuania and Poland.

I would have tried Germany but am on tight budget and can't raise money for block account.

Has anybody face the same challenge as mine?
How did you overcome it and achieve your aim?
Is there any other good option I should try?

Please help a brother.
Thanks in advance.

Let me help you.

YES, they accept all our various formations, whether it is NABTEB, OND, HND, or BSc.

Let me break it down for you.....

1. Generally if you have WAEC, NECO or NECO GCE, or WAEC GCE, you are eligible to apply for any BSc program.

2. If you hold NABTEB, OND, HND, or even BSc, you are allowed to apply for 3rd year programs in some universities that offer such 3rd year programs, e.g France. Also, UK and Denmark do top-up programs where you can use your HND (only) to apply for a top-up program in your discipline.

3. Lastly, if you hold BSc, you are eligible for Masters.

Basically there is little or no postgraduate programs in the EU. They refer their PG programs as M1 & M2 which means Master 1 & Master 2 and you are eligible only with a BSc certificate. If your CGPA is not strong enough, you may be enrolled into M1 and later qualify for M2 after completing M1. However, with a strong CGPA from 3.40 upward, you can enroll directly into M2.

Truthfully, I only read comments on NL, I personally don't comment because of some foolish and confusing contradictory opinions but I decide to write this out and explain to everyone in your shoes because I have realized that most ND, HND, NCE, and NABTEB students/graduates are always having this similar challenges. So in a nutshell, if you have ND, NCE, NABTEB, or HND what you can apply for in Europe is either a 3rd yr program (this means joining classes in the final yr - direct entry) or a Top-up degree(with your HND only). If you need more guidance, ask me further or go to google.

I have the same exact credentials I have, but I had to rewrite neco last year to give me a better chance of securing admission into one of the EU countries, but now I have to wait for things to go back to normal to start applying.
Pls try and write any proficiency test to give u better chance.

Well my reason is simple: most of the European countries don’t recognize other result other than NECO/WAEC
And to your second question I haven’t seen anyone who gained admission with two results, but if u have credit in maths and English with any three other subjects I think u are good to go, but if u are going for MSC u don’t have to worry much abt your SSCE cos your BSc already covers for it

You need information and advice from people but you don't want to give out the ones you have?

How? I don't understand you, because I stated clearly in my write up those countries I have tried and the one I can't due to block account. So which information am I hiding?

I was just denied admission into the Klaipeda university because my cgpa is not up to 60%.
Please any one knows if I can still apply to other schools that accept a 2:2 in this july. Or I can not meet up again this year fro Lithuania schools(masters)
Re: Is It Possible To Study In Europe With NABTEB, ND And HND? by cuteBB(f): 8:54am On Jul 07, 2021
This is really disheartening. My cgpa was 54% after their calculation. It isn't up to 60% but they didn't give me an option of doing a program like M1 to upgrade the bsc rather they just denied me. Admission fee gone...
This has broken me I swear....
