Dan2j:
for the shared scholarships....does my screenshot means that the first and second university will only award scholarship to ONE person and people are applying all over the continent. kai!!

If you dey aim for shared scholarship, na one of two things, either ur results dey impeccable (times 10) or you are on a long thing!

Not to discourage u from applying, but make sure u put in ur very best

I just pray the interview will not be inconclusive in God's name!

kaka22:
Can one be nominated with incomplete referees' recommendations? I.e 1 out of 3... I don't want to waste transport fare. Is it possible to get medical report on the same day one applies for it?

As for CSC, they can accept your references anytime (I confirmed from them). Na Nigeria FSB get crazy policy jare. U can also get med cert same day. Wise up!

Dan2j:
Oga..u applied last year...why are u still here...I taught u were already in d uk..

U don get experience..pls carry us along ooo... Can I dress simply..like a pair of jeans and a T-sirt or should we be very corporate?

Yea, UK in dreamland. Be clean and presentable. I wld definitely not recommend jean and shirt. Pants, well pressed, tucked in shirts and clean shoes shld be okay. Nothing wrong with complete suit (if you are not sweating sha). Native sef dey okay, but look clean and good shoes.

femotechno:
Pls... How do I get evidence of submission of three referee reports

Log into your CSC portal, print the page that comes up which shows "3 of 3 references received" or so

Ebenezer9:
thanks!
anything i can do on "evidence of any special awards, prize and academic publication".
i don't have any.

Ur undergraduate thesis for academic publication. For special award and prizes put any award u have, even if na pry school quiz competition,debate etc, or best in a subject etc. It's an interview, these things can be psychological and quite subjective.

iyelola:
Has email been sent out? When and what does it say please?

I can't even remember this post o, it refers to last year. I never receive mail this year.

Are you all Cynthia?

naijamark:
First Class cheats how market? When I heard of the cancellation of PRESSID I was elated, a wicked grin forced itself from my usual expressionless face. My apologies to the real scholars as my "felicitation" goes to my brainfriend friends who are nothing but embarrassment to the academic excellence they have achieved. Countless opportunities are out there for genuine scholars other than the corruption ridden now shipwrecked PRESSID you wanted to kill for. That you're still there finding it difficult to secure a place in a more transparent competitive scholarship is an indication that you're fake after all.
I can't reply you, I'm busy. Having heard the "good news" of PRESSID cancellation I felt I should lend my voice. Nigeria deserves better. Enough of those mediocre occupying every sphere, the reason for our gross underdevelopment. If you find it difficult to identify President Buhari's achievement, here is one, the cancelation of PRESSID.

End time things.

ElDeeVee:
Interview done already

Oga, abeg dey serious na?

Ebenezer9:
woooow.

Just let them send a scanned copy across as drkris suggested. The Csc guys are quite proactive.

In order news, is there any news on the interview date?

IlesanmiG:
hi there, see I won't lie. me I'm entirely confused. and actually speaking with one with extensive(even vague) knowledge about this would help sir. u might not be able to drop your number here but can you kindly kindly kindly help me drop it in this mail? (ilesanmiolugbenga69@gmail.com). would be elated if I'm entirely let in on this .please

Luke1001:

@ Ilorinboy, Thanks for the response. Pls one more tin. What is the probability that someone who does not have any professional qualification like ICAN or ACCA will be invited for the test? I don’t av any of these and its part of deir requirement +if u have any related material for deir test pls help send to anop12000@yahoo.com

ican or acca are needed only in some depts

anopworld:
@ nairalnaders concerned generally, @Ilorinboy1 specifically, pls just want to know. I just applied not too long ago, I have read dat deir test is gmat. Ok accepeted. but wot i want to ask is dat is it paper test or COMPUTER BASED TEST. Also, what is the format of deir verbal. is it all dose TRUE, FALSE, CANNOT SAY. abi it is anoda format of verbal.
pls i wud appreciate a valid response from anyone concerned.

sorry for the late response. well, it's not always gmat, but it is paper based. the verbal is the options type, although the questions vary, and can be very much. and there are even some general current affairs questions. Just come with your head and waste no time. Generally, as with most aptitude tests, the goal is not to answer all, but answer the ones you can correctly within the short time given. i wish you luck and look forward to welcoming you.

mtyahaya:
Hello guys!!! Please does anyone knows what happens if a candidate is shortlisted for the final PRESSID award but he or she has not secured an admission in any of the top 25 universities listed on the scholarship website?

i think it's valid for 2 yrs. i.e d scholarship offer

Ha, it's good to see my people. I do well in groups and gatherings, make people laugh etc. but deep down, i knw I'm introverted. I can stay in a room for like a week, in front of a laptop for days and i used to think i was a badoo introvert till i met my girlfriend. God! she makes me feel like an 'extrovert'. sometimes, i literally beg her in order to speak to her. Take her on a date?! even with my pocket full of money, dats next to impossible. but i still love her tho. so i guess it's abt understanding.
