FOR PTDF (UK)

To say the truth, most winners of these scholarships are First class and 2.1 holders.

For PTDF, long before the introduction of interview, many 2.2 holders win it as it is just about passing exam.

But now, there are strict criteria to follow as it is interview. The criteria tend to favour 2.1 and First class holders.

In conclusion, for MSc, very few 2.2 holders win it. Those 2.2 winners usually have publications, excellent o level results and in a less competitive state.

For PhD, higher number of 2.2 BSc holders win it as criteria tend to consider MSc grade, publications and PhD research proposal.

FOR NEWZEALAND AND MALAYSIA

Virtually all winners are 2.1 and First class holders

FOR CHINA CSC GOVERNMENT SCHOLARSHIP

Considerable 2.2 BSc holders win it

Wow beautifully explained.. Thanks a lot...

DMainMan:
For those contacting me for other UK full scholarship in 2020, most scholarship application has closed.

However, PTDF UK Scholarship is still out and deadline is Feb 17th, 2020.

Meanwhile, Newzealand, Malaysia and Romania scholarship is out.

Can a 2.2 try his luck,or heard of any second class lower that got it.or no need to try??

Odedenshi1:
During application, you upload the student copy of your Transcript and then contact your School to forward the official copy to the School by latest 1st of February. Deadline of receipt of all documents is February 15th, I hope you understand. All the best

Thanks yes I get..

Odedenshi1:
You would upload the one you have on the portal and your school would need to forward your official Transcript to the school. You have to be very fast about it, all the best.

Please is it after the application that's when u forward your transcript to the school or after you've been accepted,that's when u tell ur university to forward hardcopy transcript, pls explain??

Basalt:
I have to say this important thing and I beg you to pay attention to it to avoid stories that touch the heart.

Everybody is specially created by God. Some are gifted in analysis and they will do very well in any course that has to do with analysis and logic, some are gifted in calculation and usually do well in courses that have to do with calculations.

Why am I saying this?

Before you change your course to any other course, check yourself very well. If you are not good at Maths, then think twice before changing to Engineering field, computer science, informatics, etc otherwise you will likely not graduate.
Getting admission is one thing, its always easier to get admission but finishing the course is another thing.

From my research, most people that fail to graduate in Information technology and engineering fail because of series of Mathematics attached to those courses.
Those already in Germany will agree with me that Germany too dey overdo in everything they do. Quality is their watchword and you must be ready to do things well to be certified here.
So it's better you choose the course you know very well you can do and do very well.

I have seen those who abandoned their MSc programs and started afresh in another course because of the high demand for that particular course in Germany, only to get stuck because of esoteric Mathematics too difficult for him and by then he has already dematriculated from the department that originally gave him admission thereby making him float like a planktonic foraminifera.
I repeat, if you are not good at Maths, stay away from Math oriented courses in Germany.

For those that wanna go into information technology, you must not have a computer science degree. You can learn coding in Bootcamp or online. Create projects with that language or go for an internship. Nogo chook your head for new department wey go use Maths frustrate you.
Computer science in Universities are usually theoretical and Mathematical with some basic programming.

Thanks very much for all the useful advice(informations) thusfar. Its really been helpful please don't relent to always inform us on any changes or things we need to do bfore coming don't let negative pple discourage you from updating us as you're a source of inspiration to many and even me because I rekindled my interest in this journey again bkaux of you're very first post and since then you've been ditching good and useful advice.thanks again Mr basalt we really appreciate you...

From what I know, Norway universities only accept 2.1 for masters but it doesn't mean 2.2 don't get in. I know a friend that got into NTNU this August with a 2.2 for masters in Geoscience with scholarship. So please, if you wanna apply then do it and stop seeking people's opinion as non of us here is part of the admission committee.. Apply and put God into it.... Don't really know if they accept Pgd.. . Think they only accept waec/ bsc

Pls can u link me up with that friend,I'm also in same category low Cgpa geoscience, I'll really need to ask him few thinz,plz

omo guys it seems this German guys dont want us anymore going by this issue of lon waiting period. I've been following this thread since September and already gotten my documents ready for April/May admission period but going by this visa issues, It looks like I'm going to start killing the German waka fo my mind. Considering I studied petroleum for Undergrad, Norway go even make sense pass for my field . So it seems this Germany waiting period have made me change mind to Norway. As they also have a block account pattern like Germny only difference is that it will be 5million naira unlike Germany that is 4. Problem wey i go get now be say most school application don close for early december

Please I'm alls interested in this Norway movement, but d issh is how many months do de give after grad to look for a job,I'm also in the geoscience field,and wats dia visa plan like for students

LOSKYXANDER:
I studied geology too and graduated in 2017. Thank God I met this thread. Would u mind mentioning the course you are studying and the school? I'm considering starting a masters program in 2020 in Germany but It seems there's little opportunities for geologists in Germany. How long did your admission and visa process take?

Exactly same question I was about to ask him,even if u can't tell the school name,biko just tell us the course you're taking for proper guidance and also course youlld refer to us geoscience to take DAT are yet to come over since you've been der and know what's up(the best for geoscience grads). Thanks..

Hi nairalanders,I'm new here,pls I need information concerning Norway,their policies on postgraduate studies after graduation, how difficult or easy to get admission,steps to go,amount of money needed to fund the block acct,can 1 withdraw the money when he/she gets there,jobs after graduation and on doing the masters,how flexible is it to get job when doing ur masters so as to pay up money borrowed to travel,etc...pls any bodi with good info should assist,thanks.

Basalt:

It has to be stamped and signed by your school during the process of collecting the transcript, then you certify it.

Let me pm you,pls reply but also help answer my questions here too for benefits of others(geoscientists)

sassy92:
