Please how did you get the full funding.
The school I applied to did not give me this.

Hi,

When I applied to the school, I also indicated interest in their graduate assistant positions. So I sent a separate application for it.

Honestly, I applied in 2021, didn't get it but got a partial scholarship which only covered tuition costs, I rejected it and deferred to this year.

And I got it this year.

Just apply to where the money is in. Don't apply to school that don't offer funding or opportunities for Graduate Assistantships.

That's good. You can also drop the school so others in this category can apply

Saint Louis University.

It's a private university but they have a lot of funding & scholarships.

Thank you very much. This was helpful.
The school I applied to only gave me fellowship award which is really small compared to the COA.

I guess I would have to defer and try again. I would appreciate if you can give recommendation of schools you applied to.

Thank you

The school is Saint Louis University, Missouri.


You just have to target Graduate Assistantship positions and not just scholarships because scholarship could be 2k, 8k but won't cover your full tuition.

Examples of graduate assistantships- professional, teaching and research assistant.

You will work for the school or department. And it always comes with full tuition waiver or fully funded tuition for the course of your appointment. Best still, it comes with stipend ranging from 1000-2500 every month depending on the school. Some even give you health insurance.

Best of luck dear!

I also want to mention that the bulk of your application matters not just tests and CGPA.

Work experience gives an edge.
A well written SOP too.

Hello everyone, please can someone recommend any cheap hotel closer to the Lagos embassy.

From Obalende take bike going to HOTEL LAWA in School Campus. Most of the bike / bus people know there. They would drop you in-front of the hotel. 10k upward for room I guess.

If you’re going to the embassy the following morning, just take Korope (small bus) from the hotel, tell them USA embassy, it’s less than 13mins.

Good day everyone.

Please is there anyone who applied to Arts/Humanities on this forum? I've been seeing people in STEM.

Is it that Arts students are absent here?

Please anyone who is into language or Communication should signify.

Thank you.

You should look for Lagos date. It saves you the cost of traveling by road or air to Abuja but if you have where you can stay in Abuja with closer date before resumption, you can go there too. But check Lagos first to reduce miscellaneous expenses.

Best of luck
