don4ye: Ok. I was actually advice to get a VISA with anything that has to do with development, even terrorism and peace studies, they usually grant visas cuz they are not courses people tend to go for. Don't know how true though. Thanks a lot Sir or Mam. |

These science students don start o. Lmfao... STEM graduates are hot cakes in the labour market while others sell yams. Unless this is a joke, I salute the rationale behind this thinking. You listen to some people and u just wonder how they think. When u wanna write Jamb's UTME sef, if it's not medicine and surgery, law, petrochemical engineero-molecularistic-surgicolocus or something more in that region, u're seen as doomed in life. Y'all have to erase that baby idea and see life from different angles. Think before u advise people. Advising for example a graduate of History and Strategic Studies to apply for a STEM course and switch is just... mtchew. A person who only had business with essays, arguments, long readings for four years without any form of Mathematics, chemistry, physics, should pay $50+ (like 5 times depending on d number of schools), apply for transcripts to be sent to these schools (calculate the costs), ace GRE, compose a letter of motivation to rival those wizards in the field (especially from Asia! Those Indian weyreys), and have letters of recommendation from History lecturers telling the admissions committee how he's going to be a great computer science or engineering grad student without any prior knowledge of programming, calculus, etc. It doesn't end there, this person is also expected to get a graduate teaching assistantship and lecture or grade students? Well, pigs fly... don't they? If ur course is not closely related to STEM, biko... don't waste your money and time!!! Even applicants with a solid STEM background are rejected on a regular! Imagine being the person to review an application. U check transcripts, u dey see Intro to history, French revolution 1 and 2, Gender issues in the 16th century, Capitalism of the 18th century European states, World war 1. U go give the person admission if e dey apply for elect elect? Don't answer. That's on one side, secondly. There's more to life than getting a degree, applying for a job and getting it based on that degree and working till u retire at age whatever. University education only equips u with the starter pack to be whatever u wanna be. Get d education and use it for anything. Do u know how many STEM graduates are out there? If u dey enter Yankee, shine your eyes and no go do like omo mummy, expecting to get a degree and magically be attractive to recruiting companies because u have an engineering degree or any degree at all. JFK, know what's moving. Network, even if u study anything... one appointment from an old friend back in Naija and you could be made. Ask boys wetin dey move for Yankee and don't sleep on a bicycle (I'm not talking about selling drugs etc o, before one overzealous bookworm thinks I'm encouraging crap). Know what u want and go for it. In 5 years u won't see that anonymous online poster who told u to do this or that to blame if it ends badly. You're free, choose wisely and remember u'll be the one to face whatever happens to u. Have a plan. Critically examine any advice u get, many people give subjective advice on here. Largely based on 'limited' experience. At a point u would think getting a nursing degree abroad would get u a banana island mansion in 5 years. People sha. Can't believe I wrote this much lol. Make una dey relax small small eyin baba STEM. Na oti dey give people breakthrough abroad. 9 Likes |

Sureboy, I understand where you are coming from and I do appreciate your comment regarding STEM courses. As for me, I do not think you need to stress the need for people to understand that education isn't just about getting a job. More so, I do not think any reasonable and genuine graduate student of Arts or Social Science will think it best to go start studying Engineering at undergraduate level all for the sake of STEM. Science and Technology no doubt are the backbone of inventions nonetheless, the body of knowledge function as a whole and not in isolation thereby, making every field relevant in its own unique way. 4 Likes |

Contact the grad coordinator tonite if you can and analyze your chances.I didnt choose Cal cuz of the weather. Its the program first. Like the lady said, its an expensive city but one always analyze ALL Options before making a final decision right? But you will need to use IERF to convert your grades.it should come out high, depending on the sch you finished from too! malory84: |

Mekurexx: I see. You should be able to get a decent and affordable shared apartment with 1 ensuite room to yourself in minnesota. CA sounds like a horrible place to be in if you're strapped for cash. |

Fortissimo: Yes. Just looking for 2 more schools to apply to. Waiting for some decisions, have 2 rejects already and 1 admit from Auburn. But don't think i will be going for it. They offered me an accelerated Masters for 1term which is $15,000 then the main masters program is 12months, that's another $15,000 with no funding o. |
