This forced marriage of nigeria is turning us into something else.
its high time the country is restructured to reflect 21st century idealism.

Was anybody able to download the guarantor form?

amikable97:
No problem we can connect... What course did you apply for?

you no dey sleep?

Tommicome:
For the benefits of those asking questions about the different stages, although I might not be able to explicitly write out all that is needed to be done, but I will try to put some information together, which with some more search efforts, it should be enough to get going.

It behooves of everyone who wants to apply to adequately search for every necessary information. Below are the stages:

1. Search for schools
Search using Google and the popular URLs like bachelorsportal(dot)com, mastersportal(dot)com, etc. On every university portal, you will find information about the different courses they offer, the admission process and stages, school fees, scholarships, double degree options, ERASMUS options, accommodation, job statistics after graduation and the estimated standard of living in the cities where the schools reside. In a situation you are not so cleared, write the international offices of the schools and they would respond to you. Search on social media if you can also find people who are students in such institutions to also get the necessary information.

My little advice, if you are not really ready to give what it takes in terms of full time study, please don't apply to Politecnicos. They could be quite demanding, but if you think you are, give it a shot and you will be rewarded for it.

Please make sure you apply to at least 5 schools to increase your chances and to also have a better standpoint when making the decision to finally go for one.

2. Gather your documents and get them translated.
Usually, the Consulate have registered translators. Find out. Mrs Zita Folarin is one of those who do good jobs. There are others too. There are a number of them at the TBS complex in Lagos. We also have some in Abuja.

3. Authenticate the translated documents
The authentication is done at 2 different ministries: The Ministry of Education and The Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Abuja. You or an immediate member of your family has to do it. Please get receipt for all that you do and keep them

A faster way of doing things is to get the original documents from the translator while they continue with the translation, and then proceed with the authentication, because it could take time.

4.Apply for legalization and and pre-enrollment at the Consulate.
You need to book by sending an email (if I am still right). Read up on the website of the Consulate or take a stroll there on one of their open days to get the updated information. Go with the need cash and follow every instruction.

5.Apply for your VISA.
TIPS
-Use your parent, sibling or personal account and have not just enough money in there, but also a proven or good cash flow. Anything above 3m should do.
-Get a proven accommodation. Once you get your admission, start searching for student accommodations in the city where you plan to travel to. Write them and request to pay on arrival, but get all the needed document to show the Consulate.
-Properly fill the forms.
-Attach all the needed documents and prove strong ties to Nigeria, to convince them you will come back.
-Hope for the best, because luck also plays a big role.
-Don't give up. You can re-apply immediately after a rejection.

6. Travel

Documents you would need to work with:

1. Original WAEC result, with enough unused scratch cards at hand.
2. Original Bachelors certificate (if going for Masters)
3. Original Bachelors transcript
4. Family income statement. You will design it and get it signed at the High court. This is part of what you would need to obtain your scholarship when you get to Italy.
5 Birth Certificate. It has to be issued by the NPC. We have them in almost every state. Lagos can be expensive or slow.
6. Affidavit of birth, if born on or before 1990 (if I am right)


If you have any question or issue I haven't touched, please drop your questions. I won't answer the obvious or already written ones. Thanks.

ALL THE BEST!!!

You mentioned only original waec result... What about those that are using neco only. Going for masters actually, would o levels still need to be verified?
Also is the first school leaving certificate necessary?

So what do you want us to tell you that you don't already know

all i can say is

Isoduwa:
Then obi is a Yahoo boy who live in a town called pressing

I wonder why you guys believe that connected every time to the internet means being into fraud? I just don't understand

it is because the lab that sequenced the pathogen missed out an important DNA or RNA strand and as such the disease can not actively replicate with the genome of truly black africans

Respect your elders!

anyone with insight?

Trust2001:
I've been hearing about people who got scholarships because they graduated with that range of cgpa. My cgpa after 200level is 4.25 and I'm studying computer science. I know I'll graduate with nothing less than 4.4. So should I be hopeful or not?

Hello op, focus on graduating first with a CGPA higher than 4.00, that's 80%
The truth is that scholarships ain't as easy as it was before. There are numerous persons with first class. And also sometimes the grass is not always greener in the other side too.
But to boost your chances
Try to graduate top of your class.
Make fiends with atleast 4 professors. Because you would need their help when you start applying to 100 schools and each would request for 2 recommendations. You will find out that coming back to ask for extra recommendation would only work if they truly really like you.
Fight to do your project research under a professor instead of a Mr or a Dr.
Do a very good project with a good chance of getting published. Being a published applicant boosts your chances even if you have 3.70 CGPA.
Identify a core niche you want to research in and develop a research thesis that you would use in asking professors outside for funding.
And above all, you what you're studying in your undergraduate years.
Best of luck

amikable97:
Alright... I appreciate your input..
I'm not in Lagos now, I'm still serving. For the statement of result to you know if MOE & MFA accept legalization of statement of result?

When batch B1 is slated to pass out is May (and my school can't issue without NYSC discharge certificate) and by that time it would have been too late to meet up with all that is to be done.

i just called them, they collect statement at the ministry, embassy, i dont know

Rosunkeye:
Hello house I’d advise your translate your documents first as collection date as of today is 13th of April.

where can one translate the docs, do you have recommendations please?

.

why not email, call or visit the Nigerian embassy in UK?

I enjoyed this pictures
one day...

what are your highest academic attainment op?

Ope4Christ:
NECO certificate is equivalent to WAEC and it is acceptable.

No statement of result is allowed. It must be original certificates.

I want to correct the notion that it must be original certificates only that could be authenticated.
So i called the ministry's phone number 07033778053 and i was told by the woman at the other end that my statement of result could be used instead, but she said i should come along with the original transcripts that is not student copy.
