@ The Dream chaser, Msc Mathematical finance & Actuarial science is my intended course too. May I know the name of the school that offered you admission?

Plz how much do I need to hv in my sponsors acct if I wish to apply for an Msc programme in Austria?

@ Turakidanjuma, while I support a candidate from the South for the presidential position come 2019, displaying your hatred for Muslims will do u more harm than good.

I'm a Muslim from the south, forming a party of trying to garner support for a candidate on a basis of religion will fail woefully.

You are full of hatred, has it occurred to you that there are Muslims in d south?
People with your mindset are actually part of the problem we are facing.
Back to regional govt

@ Mantle guy, any rough estimate of amount needed in my acct b4 applying for an MSc coures?

Plus does funding/scholarship exist for int'l student?

Will appreciate your kind response

Truth is the north doesn't even pity nor like itself.
It rather prefer to use BBOG as a political tool just to gain power but now condemn the same BBOG, does this same region deserve people's sympathy?

The north brought this calamity upon itself!!!

@ striker 9 nice work u have done, any idea if the Legalization by ministry of foreign affairs can also be done in Lagos?

[quote author=LagosismyHome post=49018098]You can relax that you definitely meet the requirement for gpa ....because most schools say above 3.0 ....... 3.08 /5 is almost where 3.0/4 meet ..... so 3.20 will be above 3.0 ...worry359 nice one

@ LagosIsMyHome & Co I appreciate your response.
However, I'm still confused here, my intended school require that I have 3.2 in a 4 point scale in the last 2yrs of my undergraduate study, after calculation, my cgpa for those last 2yrs was 3.81 in a 5pt scale.

Now do you think the 3.81 meets that 3.2 in the 4pt scale?

I will appreciate your response

Plz can anybody assist me onhow to calculate my CGPA using the 4- points scale?
I need it to know if I meet the minimum requirement in the school I hope to apply to.

You have been so helpful on this thread

Hello Pals

I'm back again with my question, can any body assist me with a link on how to calculate the last 2yrs of my undergraduate study using the WES Calculator?

Need that to know if my CGPA falls within 3.2 needed as minimum in my intended US school.

Thanks in anticipation of your response.

Tnx so much for your response @ LagosIsMyHome

Heloo everyone

I have a troubling question for sm1 to assist me with an answer.

1. As a prospective MASTERS student at a US university, should I secure a GA position will the embassy still request for proof of funding from me?

2. Supposing I secured admission with intent to self fund my study, how much is the minimum from your experience that I need to have in my sponsor's account? Do u think $10,000 is enough as a minimum balance?

I will appreciate your kind response.

Sorri mistaken identity.
Apologies tendered @ justwise

Na my eye deceive
No vex abeg

@ justwise you got it wrong.
Dropping my mail was the last option, I'd prefer if some1 guide me on how the material was searched online. Wouldn't mind if you could.

I don't expect to be spoon fed.

Sorri to post this here as I do not mean to derail the thread.

Whenever I ask you guys of the materials u used for studying to blast the IELTS exams, response I got is the it's free online. Abeg time is going against me nw based on my plans, the free material I got online, though has some IELTS prep tips contains mostly medicals questions.

Can sm1 kindly assist me with a copy of the material used or better still tell me how u searched for it online when u were also preparing.

Looking forward to your kind response.
@ tobzy congrat

@ biikeys yes, because he is already complaining of the high exchange rate.

Plz anybody who knows of any cheap Uni in US offering MS Actuarial, will appreciate your response

Any idea about minimum balance me sponsor must have in his acct?
Intend applying for MS Actuarial Science.

Will appreciate your kind response and will appreciate if you could help recommend cheap schools offering the course. Though already have some schools in mind, just trying to see if I could get cheaper ones.

@ Nairasea and LagosIsMyHome, the cgpa is for my BSc. Actually UI killed my enthusiasm for Academics, so was thinking of getting a school to do another MS Actuarial program in order to practise as an Actuary.

I no longer wish to run a PHD program again but just do MS Actuarial science and become a professional Actuary, since I wish to settle down real soon.

My Cousin has actually agreed to sponsor my program in the US but trying to see if I could get a cheap school with possibly some funding to be on the safer side.


I really appreciate your response.

Where do I even start from, graduated since 2011 with a 2.1. Degree in Mathematics, just finished MSC from UI but didn't feel like I have gotten what I need.

I wish to apply for MS Actuarial science in any US University, plz guys can you recommend any cheap school you know of there to me?where I can also get T.A position, my CGPA is 4.22.
I'm rilli counting on you guys please, I don't want to waste another one year again.

Tnx in advance
