How the OSS works is that following the award of the scholarship - the beneficiaries chosen schools will be paid the tuition, after the tuition is paid - the rest of the funds will be transferred to a domiciliary account specified. That can now be used to sort out other things. However the person must provide a valid visa for that to happen (this is to prevent people from absconding once they have been paid their upkeep allowance). As for flight - AGIP themselves will book the flight for OSS awardees and hand them the ticket for the date of their choosing.

Finally - it is not a condition that you must come back upon completion of the program, you can apply for further studies or work or postgraduate visa as necessary. I hope this helps

Yes thank you. I really appreciate

Is it that those got success letter on OSS are not on this platform to tell us??. We can't collect it from you..

Very insightful and thanks. Moreover, I wanted to ask. Should in case one gets shortlisted for the scholarship, does agip cover the visa costs or is it covered by the student?

the visa cost is typically covered by the student. But this does not mean AGIP won't pay for the visa cost - it just means that you would have to finance the cost of the visa yourself before it will be reimbursed along with upkeep allowance. Because AGIP pays the upkeep allowance only after the visa is out. I believe this is to prevent people from Absconding with almost £15,000 without going for the masters program

Oh..wow. Thanks once again. Last time I checked, UK student visa is almost equivalent to 100grand.You sound so knowledgeable about the Agip scheme at large. It seems you were a beneficiary. Laudable!

Dragnet, we are still waiting ooo. Make una help us...

Apparently someone was contacted about 2 weeks ago to confirm admission details, for now - I think best is just to wait and pray. The scholarship offers will drop anytime soon

Please do you know if any oversea applicant that was contacted? Seems like only LSS Applicants have been contacted to confirm their admission details or has anyone gotten a notification from their schools?

Mine is OSS and I was contacted by Dragnet with regards to admission confirmation.

Ohh! Were you asked to re-upload your admission letter or you didn't upload it before registration and asked to upload it? Thanks

Can we see a screenshot of the mail please. Blot out your personal details, if need be

I uploaded my admission offer during application. They asked me to forward the notification email sent to me so that they could verify it from the school using the contact details therein.

Wickedinlaw:

It was actually a phone call.

Follow this link to join Agip PG Scholarship 2021 WhatsApp group: "https://chat. whatsapp.com/DIH6tRORdxl94ARhesvBuD"

Just copy and edit the link and delete the space between ".chat" and "whatsapp".

I think all conversation should continue on this platform. Someone might read it in 2 years time or more and be able to find useful information.....

Congratulations in advance. You made it. We are waiting for ours to drop.

Did anyone choose University of Aberdeen and was contacted by Dragnet?

Please why I asked was because I had 2 missed calls from a number the same week some people said they got a call from dragnet. But when I tried to call back, I couldn't. I don't know if the number was programmed that way. Those that got a call, were you able to call the number again?

They would have sent you a message if you missed their call. Worry not friend, just chill till the actual selection is made and best of luck.

Just drop the first four digits of the number after 080, we can help you confirm.
