She is more irritated than nervous or shy though.

Hopefully it's her first ever kiss and shes never being with a man.

I know. I have to also commend myself for my patience and apologetic mood after it happened. If I tried to argue that day, maybe I'll be dead now and labeled an armed robber.
Why is it wrong? I think that's the point of the thread. Is there any extent law prohibiting that?

Hey 🤠

You have to be a prior (Permanent) resident in any state in the USA to qualify for in-state tuition OR you were a permanent resident in one state and transferred your studentship to another state ..then you can qualify for the in-state tuition of that state .

IN SUMMARY.... In - state tuition is liken to NIGERIA STATE OF ORIGIN ...ie a Sokoto indigen applying to Uthman Dan Fodio University will pay lesser school fees than a student coming from Lagos.

Back to USA... A Nigerian does not have to be born in America to qualify for in-state tuition but he or she must have graduated from a US HIGH SCHOOL and lived in that state after graduation for like 1 to 2 years .

In -state tuition is a subsidized tuition ...you pay lesser fees than others . Out -of -state is a normal school fees for ALL AMERICANS who comes from different states .

International student like you without any form of scholarship might even pay more school fees than Out-of -state students . Therefore, IN AND OUT-OF STATE TUITION DOES NOT CONCERN AN INTERNATIONAL STUDENT .

Therefore, focus on every information directed
to international Student Applicants..



Best Wishes 🙏
I'm grateful

Can someone please explain this In-state and Out-of-state tuition thing. As an international student if I get admission to say University of Virginia and decide to live in Virginia, do I qualify for in-state tuition?

I ask because I noticed that the focus is on "State of Residence " and not origin.

While I have limited knowledge and information regarding this(as most schools I applied to do not have such prerequisite and it is not too common in MSc applications, except it is for research, if I am not mistaken), I think you have to go through the schools' website and then to the program(s) you're applying to and then look at the faculty members and see the professors or teachers there whose areas of work you admire or align with yours.
You can subsequently send them email(using their school contact email address) that you're interested in their works(mention specific works you are interested) and tell them you're applying to their school and will like to mentored by them if you're accepted into the program.
NB: Include a brief background of yours, and you can let them know it is because of your interest in their area of work that you're applying to school. The subject of the email could something like, "Request to be mentored by you".

Some may response, others may ignore. Don't be discouraged by that.
All the best.
I'm grateful.
TravelRe: Canadian Student Visa Thread Part 23 by ColdHunter(f): 2:08pm On Dec 02, 2023
Chiefs. So I've narrowed my search to 4 universities and will be applying to all 4 of them for MSc.

They are
University of Manitoba - Paediatric and Child Health
Simon Fraser - Gerontology
Memorial University of Newfoundland - Health Ethics or Public Health and
University of Alberta - Public Health.

My query is on searching for a supervisor as it's a prerequisite. When mailing the supervisor is there a template I should use or are there specific information I should to include to improve my chances of favorable response?

Well as I earlier stated, you have to define the path you want whether you want to enter into clinical field, academia or research.
Bear in mind that PhD takes time(≥3 years) and with PhD you will likely enter into academia or research. If time is not an issue to you, you may go for the PhD after or during which you can navigate your way into clinical nursing (writing NCLEX, obtaining licence, etc) but the little concern is loosing track along the way as you stated.
You can try masters or PhD in nursing, MPH, physiology, etc. You can research for schools that offer such.

Requirements for PhD programs as someone already stated depends on the school. But some schools I researched sometimes ago require GRE, minimum of 3.0 GPA, interview, etc. Most admit direct from BSc. However, for public health(PhD in epidemiology, biostatistics, maternal and child health, etc), an MPH or MSPH degree is almost always required.
Any health related field(like anatomy, physiology, pharmacology, etc) that you took course in during your undergraduate program may not really be a deviation.

BigIyanga:
Per my limited knowledge, no 2 schools have the same admission requirements. Some do take intl students without NCLEX. You have to reach out to more schools.
Start applying to schools and stop looking at general information boards. One tested experience is better 10 scenarios posted on info board. You’re a unique candidate with your unique qualities.

Why are you considering other health-related programs… when ur nursing degree and NCLEX can you a multiple job offers in the US? It will also give you a path to citizenship.
Also, if you get tired of your PhD program, you can master out of it, and take your MS and NCKEX to job market. Either way, you are going to be fine. Good luck
Thank you Sir.

I'll keep in touch

I think your two options look great and promising. However, bear in mind that to practice clinically as a nurse in USA or Canada, you need NCLEX (if I am not mistaken).

As others commented, you can apply for MSc or PhD and you have high chances of getting funding. But you have to define the path you want and also know the timeline involved in finishing PhD program.
You can prepare and write the NCLEX while doing your PhD or MSc (as the case may be) and use the opportunity to also network.
Thank you Sir for your kind reply.

I already looked up MSC admissions in both countries for Nursing and found that I have to be licensed to practice before I can enroll and licensing requires writing NCLEX too.

I considered applying for MSC in other Health fields like Gerontology but I'm afraid it may be a deviation from my undergraduate field.

Also, for the PhD, what would be the requirement?

Sorry to bother you.

Experienced friends, kindly help.

I graduated with a 1st Class, BSC Nursing and currently working in a Federal Teaching Hospital.

I have two options I wish to explore:
1. Apply for a masters degree in either the US or Canada.
2. Go to Philippines for my NCLEX and then apply for jobs in either US or Canada.

Which would you suggest, especially on a budget of 12m.

Kindly assist.

feelgood:
MultiChoice confirmed that 1.5billion votes were cast (a record) for the finals.

Since Ilebaye got 30%, that is 450million votes.

This means Mercy got a little over 345million votes.

So Ilebaye dusted Mercy by over 105m votes. The 6.8% difference therefore, is a very significant number. It smashed both Laycon n WhiteMoney's numbers between them n their seconds.

Baye tribe - take a bow. This is your making. Those beefing that the difference is insignificant are as ignorant as they come.

Baye's winning numbers is a smasheroo. A technical knockout n bloody nose to the runner up. The %age difference is indeed a phenomenal one.
At no point did they say those votes were for the finals.

Dont know why you guys lie for no reason.

Really sad and a true image of today's Nigeria.
We have being down this after-show reflection path before and next year it will be same case.

It is well with Nigerians ....a genuinely good heart was in our screens the whole time, we turned a blind eye and crowned a Ghanian with 120m Nigerian money!
What is even more distressing is the fact that they asked the winner what her plan was and she said "GenZ Baddie".

A graduate said her plans for the future is "Genz baddie".

A big shame!!

Theres nothing bitter about his feelings.

While I feel he is overreacting, his feelings are legitimate. Ceec wouldn't have tolerated this from any HM, worse so if the HM goes on to win.

Was cross truly cheated by ceec ?

He said he was at number 2 and then ceec came to chance him
He was in Ribbon 2 during the first game. For the second game, CeeC went to the ribbon. Cross told her that's his spot but she refused. He insisted. There was a little argument about it before Cross reluctantly left the spot for her.
TV/MoviesRe: Big Brother Naija “All Stars“ 2023: Live Updates Thread by ColdHunter(f): 8:44pm On Sep 29, 2023
I genuinely and completely understand how Cross feels. In this thing called luck, the small margins are everything.

Now imagine it was Ilebaye that took CeeCs position (just like CeeC did to Cross) during the game and eventually went on to win, CeeC would have brought the house down.

Did he steal anyone's coins to purchase it?

Would it have been more honorable if it was Adekunle that bought it.

Predicting someone to win doesnt mean you want them to win.

Venita predicting Ceec to win doesnt mean she wants CeeC to win or is rrooting for her. Basically means she feels she has the strongest chance of winning.

A Chelsea fan can predict City to win the league while praying that Chelsea wins.

Why is he so desperate to discourage people from voting for Baye?
Why’s he feeling so threatened by her?
I thought he called her a low hanging red meat and other derogatory names?
Why’s he acting like he’ll die if she wins?
Who gave him the right to decide on what the people wants?
Kidd is a very silly and useless person!
He’s a total waste of space!
A nonentity without a genuine source of income!
An empty barrel and a wretched soul!
If he really wants Cece to win,why can’t he bring out a huge sum of money and donate them to her handler?
He’s mad!
No wonder he got voted out during SYE and Allstars and up till now,no visible achievements!

You know this how?

Only few are mad that she won her season and don't want her to win again.
The truth is Mercy has not worked for that money. She is not deserving of it. If not for the good work she put outside before coming she would have been evicted like Whitemoney. Even some Mercenaries of 2019 are not supporting her. It is not even about hate. Ceec even deserves the money more than her.
Mercy and Ceec not winning is going to be the biggest upset because even till now many people don't expect Ilebaye to win. And before the show started all bets were on Mercy and Ceec then add Adekunle or Alex as top 3.
It's amazing how one person who probably doesnt even own a gotv will drop a lie and everyone just jumps on it and keep propagating it.

Please how did you people become so sure that Mercy dropped voting money? Is there any HM there that didnt try to galvanise support or logistics before going into the house? Even the fans of the cowrie worshipper have jumped on the bandwagon
