Boss thank you for this breakdown. u v just answered many 'ghost viewers' questions. olabode89: Time has not changed.....
Lemme give u a brief on cost
You need to be able to raise 1.5M or get a sponsor to deposit 1.5M in ur account.
Test of english will cost btw 35K - 40K
You can write one out of TOEFL, IELTS and PTE Academic
Notarization of certificates will cost between 50 naira to 200 naira per page.
transcript cost varies per school
You also need to get an international passport if you don't have one already.
You need to send ur transcript and application package to the school..... i used DHL and it costs 13,400. So multiply that by the number of application you will like to send.
...So u need around 65K for pre admission cost for one program.
....After admission you will need the following 32K for insurance 67K to 72K for residence permit fees 9K to send ur docs to the finish embassy... i used DHL other expenses....5K ( bank statement, scanning n printing cost)
....So u should b looking at around 110k for post admission cost.
In total budget around 170K for one program ex
cluding cost of obtaining transcripts from ur University and sending to d school of ur choice.
Please ensure u have a way of getting 1.5M in your account with d required support documentation. @ easrael, please when did u create ur Funima account cox i learnt that itz closed till around November. |

Good to hear that no study fee for now. i followed Germany thread bt i quited due to language barrier n 8040 euro for RP processing. am looking forward to applying to mech engr/mechatronics in both LUT and aalto and material engineering in TUT. August? congrats bro. i wont mind to get ur contact (bbm or whatzapp) please cox i gat alot of questions to ask regarding application cox i had my HND in nigeria n Bachelor in South Africa. Though sending transcripts is nt an issue for S.A university bt naija own na d koko I remove cap boss olabode89: From my knowledge Finnish instituitions won't be introducing tuition fees anytime soon. You should request ur uni to send ur transcript immediately the application period starts.
You might also want to consider Norway and Germany. Although Norway requires around 2.7M for ur upkeep for its RP processing while Germany will need you to deposit around 2M in a german bank.
What course are you looking to apply for in TUT and Aalto? I will b attending TUT by August. Aalto was my first choice nut i was not offered a place...the course i applied for Industrial Engineering and Management requires a First class in bachelor's studies. |
Travel › Re: Studying In Finland (free Tuition) by Growingboi(m): 11:22am On Jun 06, 2015 |
God bless u brother. I hv read thru d thread and i v concluded plans to apply to aalto, TUT and LUT(if tuition fees nt introduced ). and to do a notary public in ikeja at N50 per copy. i v started preparation for ielts(bought study materials at british council, ikoyi) . application starts 1st December. please, which month should i ask my school to send the transcript so as to get there by December considering delay and other factors and if Tuition fees is introduced, which country ll u suggest as plan B for me? olabode89: The Transcript can only be sent with the certified copy of ur BSc degree which can be certified by ur University.
To be on the safe side and to prevent rejection of your transcript, I will advise you leave the sending of your transcript to be done by your University.
Before you even talk about transcript you need to do the following. 1. Search on www.studyinfinland.fi for schools and MSc programs that are offered in English. 2. Select courses/schools that you will like to apply to. 3. Visit the university's website, review and understand the requirements. 4. Decide on the Test if English Language that you will sit for. Pick one out of IELTS, TOEFL or PTE Academic 5. Pass the Test of English Language.... Min score required for MSc application for IELTS is usually 6.5 and for PTE 54 or 62. 6. Get all necessary docs required for your application, notarized/certified certificates (BSc degree and WAEC), motivation letter, transcript etc. 7. Certificates can be notarized at any high court in the country.... did mine for 70 naira per copy at Ikeja High Court. 8.Wait for application period to commence and ensure that you send all required documents to the school or UAF (if UAF us in charge) in good time.
.....You can go through the thread for more info. |

olabode89: Go to d transcript office at your school they are experienced with sending of transcripts.
Yes, you need to send 1 transcript for every program u are applying to. Even if u are applying to same sch.
So five programs/courses, five transcripts.
Also ensure that d envelop in which d transcript is put into is properly sealed and d back flap is stamped properly by ur University .
If u have enough funds...send ur transcript using a courier service provider e.g DHL, UPS, etc.
If u are having some cash flow issues.... send ur documents on time using NIPOST REGISTERED MAIL OR EMS SPEEDPOST. thank you brother. i knw dat i ll go to my school to get the sealed envelop. bt must the school send it themselves, cant i get it frm the school and send it myself alongside with other documents for d application? |

Ore mi, God will mightily bless u. u have made my day. My applications to TUT, LUT and aalto. Anyone wit IELTS/TOEFL Study materials? please help a brother. God bless you. olabode89: Oga u need read this thread very well.
Aalto is not a member of UEF. Aalto is a top engineering and tech school in Finland, it is d biggest infact.
LUT is a very good engineering and tech sch in Finland too but Aalto is number 1 in engineering in Finland and it is super competitive.
Aalto is located in Espoo close to Helsinki metropoly so it should offer more job opportunities with a population of around 300 thousand peeps.
Lappenranta on d other end has a population of around 80 thousand...i hv no idea about job opportunities.
I will advise u apply to both schools and also TUT. TUT is d best alternative to Aalto in enginnering n tech courses.
These are my observations about both schs they might not b 100% correct. |

Williamso: I'm not sure you clicked those links: 1 has 480 pages, the other has just 52. Every question you have and probably will have have been answered rigorously on those threads. And it's in your best interest that you do. I'm not in Germany, so I can't say anything about racism, cost of living and job opportunities. What I can say is considering all those now is simply putting the cart before the horse. Since you have visited daad, I don't understand what you mean by "more clarity". In any case, I've helped you a little with that: www.daad.de/deutschland/studienangebote/international-programs/en/?p=l&q=°ree%5B%5D=2&fos%5B%5D=3&fos%5B%5D=4&subject=0&lang%5B%5D=2&langDistribution=0&fee%5B%5D=1 go there and edit the filters as you please, then go through any program of your choice and find out their requirements (TOEFL, CGPA, etc).

Travel › Re: Securing Visa To France, Applying From Nigeria... by Growingboi(m): 10:16am On Apr 11, 2015 |
olaopts: Once again, I'm sorry for sharing the information late. This is my first time of applying for a Schengen visa.
I am a Nigerian studying IT program at an Asian University. All I did was: -
1.) Registered and paid for a conference (The conference is about IT and latest technologies in France) 2.) Requested that the organizer send me an invitation and a copy to the French embassy 3.) Collected letter from my school showing that they are aware of my travel plans 4.) Booked an insurance online for 35 EURO 5.) Booked for hotel reservation and airline (All online and free). Only a credit card is required to guarantee a hotel but nothing is charged 6.) Printed my bank statement via online bank portal (I generated 3 months record from my account online and printed it out)
I submitted all these documents to the French embassy and was told to come back after two weeks.
After the 10th day of submission, I received a call from the French consulate asking me to explain the purpose of my trip to France. I explained everything to him including my future plans (I told him the truth) and at the end of the conversation, he said he will send all the information to France for review. He also told me that he can not guarantee that the visa will be issued but I should come on the given date.
Four days later, I went to the embassy and was given my passport. I opened it and viola, I saw a Schengen visa on it. Was impressed because the whole process is so easy and I did almost everything online. please, hw many days of stay did u fill in and what is d name of online insurance dat u used? |

You can buy rands and also have some naira in your bank account.. Just note that rands is expensive now with bureau de change, compared with the official exchange rate in the banks. If you bank with stanbic ibtc, you can open a rands account with them, and deposit your rands inside, they don't charge for withdrawing rands Thanks for ur concern sultan003. I use gtb nt uba. |
