Virtually all PhD programs are fully funded. The only thing one needs to do is to hustle for admission. Funding will sort itself out.

adetola007:
Alright, all the best

It's no longer news that people are doing PhD without masters. I have 2 senior colleagues currently enrolled at University of Texas at Austin and University of Kentucky. That being said, I believe you're qualified to applying, all US schools require a minimum of 3.0 on a scale of 4. Try converting your score to a scale of 4 online here http://www.wes.org/students/igpacalc.asp .This will be you a rough estimate on how your grade correspond to US grade. Then you'll need to write GRE and make at least 320. You can get help on gre from here https://www.nairaland.com/1832477/how-achieve-high-scores-gre You'll also need to write a statement of purpose, a letter explaining your motivation for graduate school. You'll also need to write TOEFL and you need 3 letters of recommendation from your former school. If you have a publication, it'll further enhance your chance.

adetola007:
Unfortunately I can't tell you specific schools to apply since our major isn't the same. This is what I'll advice you to do:
1. I can send you the list of all American universities, if you're meticulous enough, you can search the schools on Google to see if they're offering your major or better still, search for all schools offering your course in Google. For example, your search can be like this ' list of US schools offering Geography at graduate (MSc, PhD) level as not all schools have graduate programmes for their undergraduate programmes.
2. Now that you know the schools offering your course, search for the school on Google, include your major in the search to expedite the process. Most times Google will bring the address of the graduate programme, if it doesn't, enter the general departmental website and navigate to graduate study.
3. Carefully read their admission requirements such as gre and TOEFL (if necessary) that you need. Let's say if the school needs 310 on the gre, your target should be 315+.
4. Read their FAQS to get further information, if need be, contact the graduate coordinator, his/her email address will be on the site.
5. Now read their funding opportunities, most schools will tell you all PhD students are fully funded, others may say they fund top 20 or so. Some will explicitly tell you that there's no funding for MSc students while others fund but priority given to PhD students. With this you can decide whether to apply for MSc or PhD program. NB MSc is not a prerequisite for PhD program in most schools.
6. Based on the above information, you can start eliminating schools from your list. With these, I believe you'll be able to make better, informed decision.
Good luck to all of us

NLresidentQS:
None that I know of, sire!

Can a 2.2 grad of Mech Engr apply as a technologist too. Tanx

NL1960:
QS is not needed for every project. Should somebody go and subscribe to the services of a QS because he wants to build a small building in his village?.

On this your 10m, 17, 19, 21, 25, 30m example, if we use my elimination method, 10m and 30m are out leaving 17m, 19m, 21m and 25m. The average of 17m, 19m, 21m and 25m is 82/4 which is 20.5m. So, you can use this to take a decision.

If you subscribe to a QS, does the QS normally factor in inflation and exchange rates that can drastically affect the estimates?. I hope you know that most people building do not have all the funds at once. Is time value of money factored in by the QS?. Most people normally stagger a project. So, if QS for instance said foundation will cost x amount when exchange rate was N197 to a dollar, do you have to go back to the QS now that exchange rate is N370 to rework all the estimates?
Yes. QSs take into consideration changes in economic variables viz a viz fluctuations in their Estimate.

SAMUELS3:
Yes I am, I applied based on the one posted here.

SAMUELS3:
Hmmm... not really, but I will go for the interview since I have the address.

Abdstrakt:
Remembered the thread as well as Mr Gbenga's comment and i knew from his tone that he was genuine.

God bless him.
