Dr Alban was my fathers primary school classmate. You know the guy had his roots in naija

Yes I know he was born and brought up in Nigeria. But for all intent and purposes especially concerning his music, he is considered Swedish.

Quite expensive especially student visa. I want a permanent resident visa. How possible is it?

Hmm.. The states don't really run PR program for Foreigners

You can apply for a work permit
The process is long and not so sure for you because a company in the US will have to prove to the Homeland security that you are the only expertise that is fit to do the job...

You need to be Language experts or probably some kind of Scientist/surgeon to get a work permit quickly


You can also invite any American citizen down to Nigeria... get married and she's gonna file for you by applying for a Spouse visa...

My advice don't marry for the purpose of gaining a green card and divorce her afterwards....it's a felony and your permit may be revoked and deported


Lastly if you have an immediate family In the US like your dad or mom who is a citizen of America...can equally file for you to visit.. since the immigrant visa is on ban...don't know if that is still effective...

Visit is you fast track...land and find a woman to marry...

If all those options are not available
Then you have to try students, visit or other type of Visa ....check the US consulate website maybe you can get any info that can help you migrate with a residential permit...

Rubbish feminist Scandinavian countries where women are the one's ruling over there. You cannot pay me a million dollar to live in those useless Scandinavian countries. The men there have been turned to house husbands.

Sweden is not better than Nigeria.
Some of you that run away or on a journey of no return always picture things as if our dear country is not wealthy.
See how you are eating roasted plantain and condo in a black wooden table with all the money and risk you take get there.
My brother we have world class universities here in Nigeria.
Sweden and all the other Scandinavian countries are shitholes, depression will kill you there with their terrible weather and their feminism where women run everything over there and their men are basically emasculated.

I love sweden.... Read somewhere that it's one of the peace country in the world... I will like to be there soon.
It is a big feminist shithole, you will probably love it as an African woman. Any African man that wants to live in any Scandinavian country needs to get his head examined.

TessBiwom:
How did you get to study there?
Was it through scholarship?
Please are they links through which one can apply?
I anticipate your response.
Most school applications in Sweden begin in October till either January or February where ALL documents must have been uploaded on the JAMB-like portal.

Schools in Sweden are quite pricey from say N10m and above for non-EU students, hence, scholarships like si.se and ERASMUS MUNDUS.

If you want to apply for this next one, I'll advise you research what you want and the school that offers that, start gathering the documents needed and write any exams like IELTS, if necessary.

Good luck.

I do hope you get it.

Did apply in 2018 or 2019 (can't remember) with a 2.2 and had a partial scholarship of €8500. Didn't go through with it as I could not complete it, along with proof of funds. Now, no scholarship is coming my way. If I had people to lend me to complete it, may have done that and continued.

Anyway, I really do hope you get a complete one. Good luck.

hello good afternoon, pleased i have Sweden in mind for masters purpose. please how i do I reach you. ajayiabiola94@gmail.com Thank you.

Thanks Sir, I love the sustainable energy programs in both schools, especially that of KTH in collaboration with inno Energy.

Programs like this will equip me with required knowledge and skill sets to solve energy related problems in Africa in the nearest future.

I applied to the program at Inno energy already, I hope to get a scholarship to provide me with funding.

I didn't graduate with a first class, but I am very well above 4points. I already have publication in energy related fields, and I'm working very hard to improve my profile.




Hope you have a job that will give you an added advantage!
