Good day sir,
I applied for 3 University and 2 gave me admission. The 2 skools that gave me admission required standardized tests but they gave me options of standardized test or work verification and a Case Study was sent to me online to answer and submit, which i did very well in the Case Study. My G.P.A is 4.2/5.0. I graduated 2011 and have been working since 2013. Will my not taking a standardized test be an issue? Ur response will be highly appreciated. My interview is next month.

Lol..If you had done your own research you would know that the amount is even small compared to what a PhD student earns in 2017. That's the amount a master's student earns in some schools. On a laughing note, send me $1000 and I will tell you the school and course

LazyFolk:
Much appreciated Boss

hello People, good day to y'all ...
Although I've been reading this thread and following religiously for a while, i just registered for it today (I'm still unfamiliar with its usage)
I have a few questions to ask, better still i need your input even if my questions seem banal.
I just graduated from unilag about 2 weeks ago and wrote the gre last week..
My scores were not so good, as i wasn't really entrenched in my studies as i was still working on my project.
I got a 315 , Quant 158 Verbal 157 (i plan on writing another exam in january, i didn't really read for this one i guess scores were fortuitous )
My questions are:
1. I graduated with a Gpa of 2.96 (terrible i know), but what are my chances, if any, of getting a scholarship..
2. I applied to random schools on that day, because the test was paid for by my Sister a week before without my prior knowledge and I didn't really Check it proper , what schools can i now apply to?
3. As I have no chance of getting my transcript till early February , do i still have a chance of applying for 2018
4. Please I'm in need of a mentor if possible to put me through, i may sound Ingenious, but please help my cause..
Waiting on your auspicious responses, God bless

You may want to consider Auburn University. I personally know someone that got admitted into their PhD program, without an MSc, with a GRE score of 298 or thereabout.

Not a lot you can do, you just have to keep trying.

TWoods:
You have not specified if you're applying for an undergraduate or a graduate program. Based on the response from the program secretary that you email professors, it appears you applied for a graduate program. Do not worry about your application status, if anything else is needed or your application is incomplete, you will be contacted to provide the additional information. I would take the secretary's advice and start identifying 2-3 professors whose research is similar to your interests. Write them something like a less than formal statement of purpose. Outline what your interests are and why their research interests you. Your admission is helped if at least one professor shows some interest in working with you.

See them, awon bleep university. Nonsense upon ingridients

That's the problem, they aren't accepting it.

They said they won't accept my own copy since that can't verify the credibility

Hello my nairaland family. Please I need advice.

I am having a pathetic situation with my school for over 2 months now. I applied for official transcript from academic unit and I was told that they could not find my 100level results. I
Was told to go to my department and tell them to resend it. On getting to my department, they also said they can't find my 100level results. They have been searching for over 2 months according to them and yet no positive results. This same school graduated me 5 years ago and issued my original BSc certificate.


I have cried to both academic unit and my faculty to help me and not spoil my life as I can't meet up with spring 2018 again, I don't want fall to pass me by and my official transcript is the only delaying factor to the schools I have applied to.


After I have disturbed my faculty severally, the secretary is suggesting that they should convert me to direct entry student instead of jambite and with that, I won't need my 100level results. But my concern is that I failed a course in 100level which was re-written in 2nd year. Won't that be a red flag to schools I am applying to?,. Seeing just one first year result in a transcript?.


My family is suggesting we sue the school and the department to court. Won't this complicate issues further?. I'm just confused. It pained me that I couldn't meet up with spring. I don't want to miss the next fall.

My friend had this same issue a few months back (Gre tho).. she however kept on mailing ETS & the school she was sending her score to till it was resolved. I suggest you do same.
