"Hello,

Much of the information you seek is on the Department of Gender Studies website.
Please consult it. The baseline funding grade average you must meet is 75%.

I would not send an application for Fall 2016 until January 2016 at the
earliest.

Best"

This how to calculate it,your cgpa/grade scale multiply by 100,you get your %. Then you compare if it's upto 75%,from my calculation 3.60 is 72%.you can confirm that yourself.

Yes...75% based on your GPA. Your 3.6 is about 72%. However, always remember that though these people have minimum requirements, they also consider other factors for both admission and funding. For example, years of work experience or published research work. So if you have stuff that can augment your grades, detail them in an email and send to the program secretary of your department and ask what chances for funding you have with that package.

Document separators can be in various forms.

You can use separate transparents sleeves for each group of documents e.g. sponsor's bank statements, my academic certificates, etc...and attach a post-it on each one.

Also, you can use colourful post-it on the edge of the first page of each group of documents, indicating what is in that section. You can also just put each set of documents in an A4 sized paper (folded across) and label them neatly. There isn't any hard and fast rule.

It shows organization, facilitates the work of the VO and makes it less likely that any of your document gets overlooked.

It definitely is a great idea to use them.

Don't recommend it cus i used them both stapling specific documents together and labelling with post it notes. At the VFS office they removed everything and arranged it the way they wanted. I was quite upset as it took time to do that

Different schools have different policies on funding.
Some don't offer funding at all.
Some offer and don't require any separate application for funding, once you are admitted, you are automatically considered for some form of entrance award (scholarship), so they share different amounts to different people depending on grades and other factors.
Some give funding based on financial need, thereby requiring you to apply for financial assistance which they can give to you either through scholarships or through Teaching Assistantship.
Others give based on availability of funds for the particular program. If they have grants from the government or private organizations for that particular program, then they can give you part of that but if not grants, then nothing for you.

Different programs/schools, different policies. Check the FAQ sections of the program website, more often than not, all possible questions on funding have already been answered there. If not, contact the program secretary, they are used to this type of enquiries so they'll be more than willing to clarify issues for you.

Haven't applied oo

Have you applied now?

In a most cases, you'll have to be admitted first before you consider or are considered for funding. If your program is research based, the turanshi is a little more. In some cases, if there's no funding for the program, you can't even be admitted in the first place. All in all, the onus is on you to understand the funding dynamics of the school/program before you apply. Like i said earlier, you can do this through the FAQs on the program website, through direct contact with the program coordinator/secretary, or through first hand experience from Nairalanders who have applied to that particular school. So maybe you should let us know what school you are considering and what program?

Meanwhile, that's a solid GPA and there are quite a number of schools that would offer you some form of assistance/funding for that.

As I promised early to list d documents I submitted, here is it. I would like to state here dat I actually amass my documents having perused the TRV chopping list and as well identified identical elements in all successful applications from Part 4 to 7, and I tend to fall in d Simple Applicant category (as hypothesized by one of d main man here).
Here we go:
1. Front loaded prayers and fasting (I literally avoid my GF during d application interval...winks!).
2. Letter of Acceptance
3. School Fee Invoice and Tuition Funding Letter
4. Powerful SOP
5. B.sc Transcript and State of Resul
6. CV
7. Birth Certificate
8. Call-up letter, Posting Letter and Nysc ID (Just about to round up my Nysc)
9. Police Clearance
10 Personal Statement (about 195k)
FINANCIAL DOCUMENTS: Sponsor (Aunty with same Maiden Surname)
1. 3 different Bank's Statements with total closing balance of #37M.
2. Barclays Bank: £37,000
3. Notorized Letter of Sponsorship
4. 3 landed documents (2 in Lag and 1 in Ib)
5. Survey documents and Building Plan
6. Shares Certificate and other forms of Securities registered with CSCS
7. My dad's 2 Landed properties (worth 17M)
Finally, abundance of God's grace with prayers.

I was actually worried that I could be seen as a potential immigrant, but lucky I was heading to a different province other than my bro's province. Also, my Bachelor's degree is in line with my Master's admission.
Wishing all d hopefuls including myself God's speed.
