akins2016:
me just catching my fun brother.

LOL me I get, but someone might have heard about this thread having a similar question and sees that post, the person might just ex.

Every newbie is a potential helper too.

akins2016:
This post funny die. some will even ask for the school wey no require visa and school wey go pay visa application fee and sevis fee plus plane ticket.

There was a time we all were verdant, this kind of posts are not needed, one day texting or replying someone with this kind of question would give the person '' confam'' orientation

pappyyanky:
Good morning my people, Happy new year in Advance... I want to ask this on behave of a friend, she is an HND holder and will like to apply for master degree in the state, how will she get her transcript evaluated , for instance if she is using WES.. will her school send over her transcript to WES. (how will she go about that to make the request in school) or will she be sending her statement of result herself to WES like i heard schools don't disclose transcript to student , pls share more light to this.

Use search box type HNd first, then HND WES, HND MASTERS, HND USA, and limit the search to travel section, you'll get something before a reply comes.

But there are really good guys here, very good in fact, I learn, make mistakes, inform people about it, seek advice, seek opinions and make good decisions.

dramaka:
Na so we see am o.
You know, we are in the age where people want it quick and fast.

Let me say this to all newbies, don't be upset, but it's worth the taking...there is so much information hidden in past threads, much more than anyone would be giving now in a single direct reply...so much. If you'd take the pains and go through previous threads (you don't even have to start from Part 1...you can pick part I tell you, you would not need to come and ask the ubiquitous question of which-affordable-schools-do-not-require-GRE-and-TOEFL-but-just-upload-of transcript-can-I-apply-to-for-XYZ-program?

And who asked the question and how is it ubiquitous? And oldie we sef Don dey mature small small, over one year...

Someone would come and attack my pidgin English...

Drama about replies lol, it hurts but then I think the search box and the Internet at large eases all the drama, you'll wait for reply, quote yourself and they'll just jump and pass.

Naso sureb0y Don go mute on us....

Simon21:

This thread helped me a lot. -Good work guys .

Nice one Boss, God bless you... But you wan go dey bring out document wey dem no ask for?

TonnyTee:
Use google,
Search for schools in the state you feel suits you then if u want to know about their tuition just search "schools name and add tuition fee".
And to let u know, estimates varies especially for undergrad and grad.
Overestimate for flight varies too but 500k plus depending.
And also Visa fee overestimate is 60k but nw I think it's 54,400naira.
Undergrad over estimate for tuition:$17000-30000. Per year
Grad over estimate:$20000-30000 per year
And mind you, it varies these are rough estimates,depends on the school and your financial stand.

Baba no let men start to fah thinking... Lmao... See how you dey list the dollars...

Scholastica16:
That's a hasty response and it could very well be wrong. Most banks (save for Standard Chartered or so) use the subsisting black market exchange rate.

don't be angry sir, I was only helping and gtb is presently 320 sir

ridsan4real:
Hello folks. please, when applying for GRE, paying application fee, which currency exchange rate is applicable? parallel market, BDC or interbank rate? 320 or 470 naira?
