Please Do the Embassy accepted printed scanned bank statement. My Uncle sent me his scanned bank statement through email. I don't know if it's unacceptable.

Yes, it's acceptable. I used a printed scanned copy and I got approval.

iwriterng:


This is not necessarily a good advice.

If you convert your CGPA and it meets your school minimum requirement, please apply.

The admission process in the US is not just a thing of grade. Even when the application pool is competitive (GPA-wise), they still think alongside diversity in the class population.

Nice contribution my friend. But if you check his post very well, and also check my reply that you quoted. You will notice that it centered on "full scholarship with a 2-2 degree from Nigeria" and not about admission.


I myself came here with a poor 2-2 from naija. If you check my replies to another user, you will see where I said I have a friend in alcorn State University who is running masters on conditional admission with a third class from naija.


It is what it is. Ask anyone schooling presently in US or any of our ancestors like lagosismyhome, they will tell you how educational courses are poorly funded in USA,.

Where stem is getting over 100million usd endowment, MBA may get like 40m while education may get less than 10million usd. And with the little funds available, you are competing with other people who have higher cgpas. That is why I said he has a better chance with chemistry than with science education (chemistry education).



Its good to contribute and give constructive criticism, but lets always understand the context of the argument first.

2-2 in Nigeria falls in between 2.5/5 and 3.5/5 if I'm right.

The most important thing is to then evaluate your naija 2-2 using the evaluation body which I recommend WES. reason is this, WES doesn't count your carryovers like naija unis do. If you failed a course and passed it in another year as carryover, your previous zero grade won't be recorded. Also, WES do boost cgpa.

I had 2.65/5 from naija, and when I evaluate with WES, it gave me 2.79/4 and I got an unconditional admission with it.



Like I said earlier, most admission in the US are in two categories. Conditional admission for low grades and unconditional admission for high grades.


Some schools also combine your cgpa with GRE scores + LOP to judge admissions. The bottom line is that schools vary in terms of admission process.


In my school (Southern arkansas University) , with cgpa of 2.2/4, you can get a conditional admission (you will be place on a condition in your first year, when you passed the condition, your restriction will be removed). Although, other factors also surface. Check the attachments below


Schools like alcorn State University, Morgan state University, and some schools in texas offers conditional admission with 2.0/4.0 sef if you have good GRE scores.

Engage google search, you will be amazed that there are good schools that will offer admissions with low cgpa and good standardise exam scores

Your response laid so much emphasis on cgpa.

I don’t need to ask anybody, I’m in the US as well; getting a graduate degree, so I know how it works.

I’m just trying to curb your blanket statement on reasons why he/she won’t get into a program because of how competitive the application Pool can be.

Peace to you too

OK my friend. Take a glass of water and let's re-analyse the entire thing to see the blanket you are talking about.

This was his post.

mrchemist:
Gudpm I m A Graduate of Chemistry 2-2 But Currently. Have my PGDE 4.1/5.0 With Teaching Experience in Lagos State Edu Chemistry Teacher (over 7yrs). What is the probability of Getting admission with Full Scholarship for 2020 in Etsu ....Thanks

And this was my reply

Muleriders:


I don't think US universities accept PGD transcripts for masters, I may be wrong though.

What career are you pursuing exactly in the masters level?, chemistry as a science? Or education?


If as science, with GRE score of 300+, you may be lucky for partial funding because its a STEM program. I use the word partial because with your 2-2, you are competing with others with 4.9/5 first class applicants.

If you are pursuing education chemistry at master's level. You have a very low or almost impossible chance for funding because

1. Education courses are poorly funded in the US unlike the STEM counterparts.

2. Since the program is poorly funded, you will be competing with other first-class students for the little available funding.

Now that you have taken a glass of water, now read through the two content and tell me where I laid emphasis on GETTING ADMITTED into a competitive program.

I only empasized on getting a full funding for educational course with a 2-2 as almost impossible because of the little funding available for it. And I adviced him to consider masters in CHEMISTRY been a STEM course to have a partial funding advantage with his 2-2. and not on getting admitted with a 2-2


Once again, I appreciate your criticism, but I will advice you to always read and understand the context of an argument before throwing critics.

If its that easy for 2-2 to get full scholarship, then 80% of Nigeria graduates should be in US by now because almost every graduates I know had Atleast 2-2.

Peace

I think you are the one not getting it here.

The person you quoted to be wearing blanket on getting into competitive program with a 2-2 also had a 2-2 as well, a poor one for that matter.

Check his post and see where he said he had a friend studying in the US with a 3rd class too.

He only empasized on "getting a full funding with a 2-2", and not "getting admitted with a 2-2"

Can someone advise on the course to study in Nigeria. I’m kinda confused. Am an art student though. Undergraduate .
