Why would they consider and go back to class then after 3month they are back embarking on strike. Student should boycott classes if that’s the case, you don’t waste people time and not achieve your aim and still waste another time in the future
At least let 2020/2021 finalists go. In my school, we were just about to start second semester exams before the strike. Timetable even came out that Monday morning. You can imagine how frustrating it is. People that, normally, should've left June 2021 cry

I heard FSB has started paying.

How true is that?
I've not received. Is it for new or old awardees?

Someone just pasted a link for a WhatsApp group. This person did not apply for ptdf. Prior to this, he has never even typed a message on this thread or the other threads.

Continue joining groups undecided till scammers infiltrate. Its not so hard to maintain this thread. If previous years had created groups immediately they were shortlisted and abandoned NL thread where would we have gone to for information?

Hello everyone,
Please I need clarification on some questions as regards the Undergraduate NA. The reg for this year has began and I'd appreciate you taking your time to shed light on the process.

1. Is there going to be any verification on the exam day? If yes, what documents are required?
Yes, documents you applied with. Instructions will be given to you

2. After the exam, what are the next steps? (I'll need a detailed explanation here because there're things like the Award Letter, the verification process).
After the exam, get ready for radio silence for months. Then a text (sms) to awardees with instructions on the next step. You'll be given award letter to fill and take home with you. You'll submit some forms attached to the award letter to your student affairs Dean to forward to the FSB director on your behalf. You might be asked to scan them and send to an email address first. The award letter will be required for all subsequent verification exercises.

3. Any other things the applicant is expected to do before payment after a successful application.
If awarded, create an account or update your bank account to remove limits. Filling the award letter is time and passport consuming. You even have to go to court grin

Again, I appreciate you taking your time to answer my questions.

Hello ma,
As a 300 level medical student without 200 level CGPA (Because there's no CGPA in medical school), can one use one's 100 level CGPA as current CGPA or what should one do in such situation?

Thanks.
Hello sir,
I have no idea. Just go with what you have then explain to them when you get there.

I opted to write on the essay, 'two plus two'.
my essay is about values, propagandas and ideas that are embedded in the society for people to follow. What if these are lies? false? How do we benefit still? How do we react. The essay shows the disparity and the clear fact of what happens when the bosses say the sum of two and two gives five and when they are challenged by the insignificant ones who dare speak up. Those that have the will-power to defend the truth.

please I am still relatively new to Nairaland and I do not know How to send him the word document, please, any help will be appreciated, thank you.

Please I have a question. I just got my award letter in 400level but my 300level gp is 3.7. It's not up to 4.0 as stated in the award letter. My 200level is up to 4.0. Should I use it as current result or go ahead with 300level result?
Go with both. The verification seems like its just a mere formality. I have a course mate that didn't attend our second verification because she couldn't get her results on time. She was still paid. The payment even came before verification. Just go with both.

Check the first page of your award letter. There should be a number that starts with FSB/NAxxx something like that.

Thanks for your response. Do you suggest he upload the current CGPA which encompasses both 100L and 200L results?

Also, the mail talks about batching for interview, does that mean undergraduates too would be interviewed?
I used my most recent cgpa. I don't know about him but uploading both would've exceeded the size limit.
No interview for undergraduates. There's no option to even pick a center or anything. Just for him to update and resubmit

Hi bro... Please i need a clarification on your words.

I remember the Scholarship advert was made public on July 5, 2021 and I did apply for my kid bro (Undergraduate Engineering Student) on July 7 using his 100L Transcripts. The dude was in 200L at the time. He is now in 300L and also has collected results for 200L still maintaining 1.1.

Now, the question is that he received a mail from PDTF directing him to update his Application if there is need so that he can be batch for interview.

When I read every item of the mail, I discovered the mail is meant for ISS Master's and PhD Applicants, I wonder why he was also sent such a mail being an undergraduate Applicant.

Pls what is your take on this?
From the mail, all applicants are required to update and resubmit

Check the application year they pointed out.

I applied when I was about to enter 200l. So they used my 100l result for verification, and I was paid from 200l to 500l. Which makes it 48 months.

In your case, you most likely would be paid for 24 or 36 months, since your course is a 4-year course.
Okay, thanks.
I applied when I was about to enter 300l. I hope it's 36 months

grin no vex. One last question. Seeing as I applied last July, will I be paid for that session (200l) or what? Were you paid from the session you applied or when you were awarded? Basically, how many payments should one expect?

PTDF is 400k yearly, plus your school fee. In the final year, an additional 100k.

So basically, it's 400k + school fee yearly. + 200k(laptop for the first payment only).

So you're getting 600k plus school fee for the first payment
Ptdf is the highest paying body and also the slowest.
