Hello Everyone,

I can imagine how tensed you are right now. You guys were just like me last year before securing the scholarship. If you eventually secure the scholarship, especially for those who will be coming to Malaysia. You can contact me to guide you(NIG +2348020954207, MY +6013561728). So as not to make some mistakes that some of us made. Malaysia is very peaceful and the people are friendly, there's no doubt about it you would finish your program in record time.

As you await the list, I congratulate the successful ones in advance.

Please friend I want to ask a question. I just joined the PTDF conversation. I have a admission from Canadian University and I have some assistantship support but I have to pay tuition fee. If I'm among the winner list of PTDF, can I present such admission to PTDF knowing fully well that Canadian Universities are not among those Universities where PTDF ask us to seek admission

As of today, PTDF only offers scholarship to students in UK and GFM, China used to be on the list but currently on hold because of COVID-19

If you had half or full tuition scholarship, they might agree.

Also, Masters and PhD scholarship package for UK is 1 and 3 years respectively.

Masters and PhD in Canada is 2 and 5 years respectively. How will you survive and school fees is exorbitant.

Stick to UK if you get the scholarship. The Canada offer isn't good enough.

I think the answer is obvious

It is ready, but they don’t know what is stopping them from releasing it.
Nigeria my country!

I have an offer with the University of Birmingham- Chemical Engineering. Any update?

I thought as much too that na September.... Reliable source said that there would be plenty awardees in full and partial list....

Please stop thinking September based on my source the list will be released highest by next week and if any thing make it to delay above next week please just expect it after ASUU strike is over because ASUU has started challenging Oversees scholarships. Nigerian students may get prostrated when PTDF list is release. Wish everyone best of luck.

ASUU strike have nothing to do with PTDF scholarship. Government can only see the strike as a factor that can fuel its effort toward giving more scholarships mostly for causes that are not offered in our universities. Because of ASUU government will not pause its programmes. I was told yesterday that the scholarship is being delayed due to the insufficient forex with CBN. However, according to the source, things are nearly sorted out. Was even asked if ASUU strike is the cause of the delay, and the reply was that, what concerned PTDF with ASUU strike? That their overseas scholars are not attending Nigerian universities, and why ASUU strike will affect their schedules for OSS scholarship.
Let's just continue waiting patiently and most importantly don't forget prayer because the level of competition with PTDF scholarship is beyond one imagination.

ASUU lecturers don't really have problems with ptdf for at least the same reasons they don't have issues with participating in elections despite the strike. If the strike was an issue then they(ASUU members) wouldn't have come for the Interviews. Also, the people benefitting from the Scholarships are Nigerian students so NANS shouldn't be displeased with the awards.
We expect the ES to come back tomorrow as someone said and also as Liebermann said; we expect the list to drop at most by middle of the month.

Fatimah is right about the issue of forex but is almost over that is why I said latest is by next week. Anything above next week please keep on doing your other things.

Go to bed

I've heard they've been having issues with CBN for a while now. Some scholars recently had their stipend delayed for a couple of months due to this. Like someone mentioned, given the cash crunch the country is in it's a miracle this whole programme hasn't been scrapped.

Middle of August was a tentative estimate based on their past patterns not a solid prognostication based on any non public information. I'm not sure priority/super priority visa applications are still considered by the UKVI so I'd be really shocked if this whole thing drags on much longer than this. Like I said, those who've experienced failure in the past will assure you the when is not the most important thing. Last years candidates had to wait over a year to know their fate only for most of them to be met with disappointment. If you have limited access to your "source" and what you're asking them about is the when, you have your priorities misplaced.

I assure you, My Friend, the joy of receiving the award is sweeter than the pains of not receiving the award. Even as I hope for the best, I expect the worst. I am good with numbers and probability so you don't have to tell me anything about my priorities.

It's well, make dem sha know say a couple will defer their award until next year.

So far from this thread we have the following information;

1. The list of awardees is ready
2. The scholarship is being delayed due to the insufficient forex with CBN
3. Possible date for the release of list is 15-19 Aug.

I pray we make it this time.
