TravelRe: Italian Student Visa-help! by rubenic(op): 6:20pm On Jun 21, 2012
boss-man:
It is not ministry that legalise. Ministry will just certify. Embassy will still use their lawyers who will write to d school to confirm your credentials. That is why it is called legalisation.

As I said, I applied for the visa and currently have what I would have used last year. Let me know ur questions so I can respond based on my experience.
Thanks for the clarification. Does one have to book appointment for legalization? i saw something like that on there website.when expertly did you submit your visa application last? were you given Dichiarazione di valore (declaration of the legal value)?

@Rubenic. I won't lie to you d process is heculian and d embassy is corrupt. I did mine last year but it just came out this may. They said it will affect visa processing but dey gave me visa last year without it tho it came late. I might go this year any way. You will need to take ur credenatials, originals and photocopies to minstries of educ and foreign affairs in abuja for sighting. U will den translate the documents to Italian. This CN only be done by one of the approved translators At the embassy. You will also collect a police clearance I think at aalagbon before proceeding to d embassy where you will be asked to pay 52l at zenith bank. Before final submissions. Note that it could take btw 6 months and 1 year before the finish d processing and get back to you. There are touts you can used at their embassy but they will milk you. A staff their milked me dry last year. Lest I forget I think its their lagos embassy that process the legalisation. Don't mind my errors cos I actually typed on a mobile. Cheers.
This is serious o! shocked Anyway Thanks for the info. Is the Police clearance for Legalization or visa application? 521 Euro for legalization?

Vicjustice: WWhaw do you mean "legalise" your documents, who suggested that to you?
This was the message i got from the school:
If you are not a EU citizen **
Once admitted to the MSc Programme, you must immediately - anyway not later than May 2012 -
get in touch with an Italian Embassy or Consulate where the degree was issued, and apply for the
following documents:
a. Authenticated photocopy of the degree issued by a University or certificate attesting higher
education studies completed in a non-University Institution (subsequently to a secondary school
diploma obtained after at least 12 year of formal schooling), legalized by the Italian Diplomatic
Representative of the zone;
b. Dichiarazione di valore (declaration of the legal value) issued by the Italian Diplomatic
Representative in the zone where the studies were carried out;
c. Certificate issued by the University or non-University Institution, legalized by the Italian
Diplomatic Representative of the zone, attesting the examinations which have been passed, together
with their detailed programs;
d. Entry Visa for study reasons. Non-EU citizens should contact the Italian Embassy/Consulate in
their own country of residence and submit the requested documents in order to obtain the student
Visa. The deadline for completing the necessary procedures is set individually by every single
Embassy/Consulate, so you are advised to contact the closest one as soon as possible.
Very Important: Non EU-citizens are admitted to the MSc Programme conditionally on the full
compliance of the above procedure and all the Italian immigration requirements. In particular,
enrolment of applicants is conditional on the legal validity of the first degree, which is officially
declared by the Italian Authorities in their own country, and on the possession of a Visa for study
reasons.

HealthA World Without Onions! by rubenic(op): 8:14pm On May 26, 2012
Read more at http://bioscience.tk
What would life be like without onions? The onion has been used as an ingredient in various dishes for thousands of years by many cultures around the world. World onion production is steadily increasing so that onion is now the second most important horticultural crop after tomatoes.

There are many different varieties of onion, red, yellow, white, and green, each with their own unique flavor, from very strong to mildly sweet. Onions can be eaten raw, cooked, fried, dried or roasted. They are commonly used to flavor dips, salads, soups, spreads, stir-fry and other dishes.

Onions (Allium cepa) belong to the lily family, the same family as garlic, leeks, chives, scallions and shallots.There are over 600 species of Allium, distributed all over Europe, North America, Northern Africa and Asia. The plants can be used as ornamentals, vegetables, spices, or as medicine. There are over 120 different documented uses of the Alliums.

Onion and other Allium vegetables are characterized by their rich content of thiosulfinates, sulfides, sulfoxides, and other odoriferous sulfur compounds. The cysteine sulfoxides are primarily responsible for the onion flavor and produce the eye-irritating compounds that induce lacrimation. The thiosulfinates exhibit antimicrobial properties. Onion is effective against many bacteria including Bacillus subtilis, Salmonella, and E. coli. Onion is not as potent as garlic since the sulfur compounds in onion are only about one-quarter the level found in garlic.
The Value of Onions
Onions have a variety of medicinal effects. Early American settlers used wild onions to treat colds, coughs, and asthma, and to repel insects. In Chinese medicine, onions have been used to treat angina, coughs, bacterial infections, and breathing problems.

The World Health Organization (WHO) supports the use of onions for the treatment of poor appetite and to prevent atherosclerosis. In addition, onion extracts are recognized by WHO for providing relief in the treatment of coughs and colds, asthma and bronchitis. Onions are known to decrease bronchial spasms. An onion extract was found to decrease allergy-induced bronchial constriction in asthma patients.

Onions are a very rich source of fructo-oligosaccharides. These oligomers stimulate the growth of healthy bifidobacteria and suppress the growth of potentially harmful bacteria in the colon. In addition, they can reduce the risk of tumors developing in the colon.
Cardiovascular Help
Onions contain a number of sulfides similar to those found in garlic which may lower blood lipids and blood pressure. In India, communities that never consumed onions or garlic had blood cholesterol and triglyceride levels substantially higher, and blood clotting times shorter, than the communities that ate liberal amounts of garlic and onions. Onions are a rich source of flavonoids, substances known to provide protection against cardiovascular disease. Onions are also natural anticlotting agents since they possess substances with fibrinolytic activity and can suppress platelet-clumping. The anticlotting effect of onions closely correlates with their sulfur content.
Cancer Prevention
Onion extracts, rich in a variety of sulfides, provide some protection against tumor growth. In central Georgia where Vidalia onions are grown, mortality rates from stomach cancer are about one-half the average level for the United States. Studies in Greece have shown a high consumption of onions, garlic and other allium herbs to be protective against stomach cancer.

Chinese with the highest intake of onions, garlic, and other Allium vegetables have a risk of stomach cancer 40 percent less than those with the lowest intake. Elderly Dutch men and women with the highest onion consumption (at least one-half onion/day) had one-half the level of stomach cancer compared with those consuming no onions at all.

Western Yellow, New York Bold, and Northern Red onions have the richest concentration of flavonoids and phenolics, providing them with the greatest antioxidant and anti-proliferative activity of 10 onions tested. The mild-tasting Western White and Vidalia onions had the lowest antioxidant content and lowest anti-proliferative activity. The consumer trend to increasingly purchase the less pungent, milder onion varieties may not be the best, since the onions with a stronger flavor and higher astringency appear to have superior health-promoting properties.
Use and Safety
Onions have a universal appeal. They are safely consumed by most people. However, consuming large quantities of onions can lead to stomach distress and gastrointestinal irritation that may result in nausea and diarrhea. There are no known interactions with drugs except that they can potentiate the action of anticoagulants.
Conclusion
Onions, and other Allium species, are highly valued herbs possessing culinary and medicinal value. Some of their beneficial properties are seen after long-term usage. Onion may be a useful herb for the prevention of cardiovascular disease, especially since they diminish the risk of blood clots. Onion also protects against stomach and other cancers, as well as protecting against certain infections. Onion can improve lung function, especially in asthmatics. The more pungent varieties of onion appear to possess the greatest concentration of health-promoting phytochemicals.

What do i do? Thanks
i also applied but still yet to hear from them (CGPA 4.01/5.00)... I think notarized transcript has nothing to do with admission decision. Ones ability to secure a supervisor has a major role to play in most research based MSc. If i may ask, what programme were u taken for?
