Sure. If you are talking in general terms, 'almost' all the Swiss universities offer their MSc. courses in English. However, if you are talking in "course-specific" terms, then a couple of courses are in German and French as applicable.

Like I said in my earlier post, I really don't know much about social science courses. Sorry.

No reason to be annoyed, we are all here to help each other.

To be honest, I don't know much about criminology but I think university of Lausanne offers it.

Check www.unil.ch (Note, you have to understand french as most of the content on the website are in french)

Good luck.

As far as I know, most Swiss schools don't request for SAT, GRE etc. The semester fee is also usually around 500-800 CHF depending on the school. You might wanna check schools in Geneva, Lausanne and Saint Gallen. I can't recall any school that offer such courses from the top of my head but if anyone does it would one of the afore-mentioned schools.
Good luck.

please can I apply by November and begin studies for msc in February next year?

I seriously doubt that, unless you currently reside in an EU member country.

AKDON:

I just finished my b.Engr electrical Engineering this year and I'm looking to apply for MSc "same course" at ETH zurich. I got some information from personal research like tuition,cost of living and the MSc curriculum..please I need information on actual living conditions and the basic things I need to prepare my mind for in order to have a smooth stay over there. Thanks for your anticipated assistance!

Everything you need about ETHZ can be found in the link below

The site is in German (Deutsch/de) which you have to change to English (en) on the top right corner.

Good luck

rumplestilskin:
Good evening room. I applied for a study visa at the Swiss embassy in Abuja because I got admitted to the Bern university of Applied Science. I received a response requesting an "immatrikulationsbestätigung " and "Studiennachweis ", an accommodation contract and a proof that I posses 21000CHF in a bank recognized by FINMA. I want to know from successful applicants which bank they opened the account in Nigeria, how to get an accommodation contract or a Nigerian residing in bern that needs a roommate and how much he charges, and what an immatrikulationsbestätigung and Studiennachweis means and how to get it.

Standard Chartered Bank has a branch in Geneva and is recognised by the Swiss authorities. The accommodation part is a bit tricky because most people putting the rooms for rent usually conduct visitations where they get to know you and decide if they want to give their rooms to you. The other alternative I can think of is to go through woko (woko.ch) and the likes.

Immatrikulationbestaetigung = Confirmation of matriculation which you should get from your prospective school
Studiennachweis = Transcript of records which you should have from your previous school.

I hope that helps.

Good luck

You got talent man.

Geofavor:

dito!

Well, to generate a geological model you need to have a basic idea about some physical parameters of your system at the very least. Unfortunately, we don't know so much about Pluto yet.

What do you mean inner component?

We don't even have a photo of the "inner" component of the earth let alone pluto (except of course you are talking about geological models of the planet's interior).

No images of the inner components of the planet?

I just read your post again.

How is being stranded in the middle of nowhere by the weather and lack of supplies not worse than anything? The siege was man made, the weather is nature (you can't do anything about it).

They are stranded with less fewer men, lack of supplies and the weather. So, yeah. This situation is worse.

I see and love the Stannis' touch there

This final ranks up there among the greatest slam finals I've ever seen.

I could pick the best 10 shots of the tournament from this game alone.

Stan's backhand is no doubt the best ever in the game.

If Federer can still be competing at 34 Nadal can get that far with less injuries,just 4 slams to that and with 4 slams yearly....Never say Never.....Nadal all the way

You don't really believe that, do you?

kliq:

Federer's record is within reach(17),Nadal and Djokovic still got 3/4 active years ahead....at that, Nadal’s closer with 14 titles and age 29 while Djokovic at 28 with 10 titles

I have been hearing that since 2012 when Federer won his last slam but guess what.......

The title is Novak's to lose. He's just unplayable at the moment.

She should consider a career in "waitressing". Seems more like her calling

miccodb:

Morning all. Fitst time i saw this post i got interested cos cos ive been affected n still grappling with similar sinister disease. Oga Santino1 i will address your post by 1st praying for you: God will not allow you see sickness or problem IJN. With the little i have read abt DJ's cases, 1 thing is clear which is no definitive diagnosis yet. So he is being misdiagnosed n getting wrong treatment. Whether u like it or not we may have doctors but not equipments or certified labs. Doctor isnt what is need now but equipment and lab specialists. Doctors come in for prognosis n treatment. All i speak is from experience. In my case, after many months of Naija doctors using me to practise n shine only 1 honest speialst confided in me n told me to head india cos no multi specialist hospital here which is definitely the case of DJ. He will spend weeks if not months to see abt 4 specialist in Niaja which i saw in few hrs in India. Pls all i think the way forward is india atleast he will get definitive diagnosis dat im sure cos ive seen with my eyes. Like babyosisi has said dis illness has elapsed a while n availed us time. Experience has showed me that no guess work in medice. I have more tales n gory experiences but i believe my point is clear now. This is my 2 cent.

Mr Miccodb, Thanks for your prayers and I pray your health continues to improve.

While I appreciate your personal account, I also have first hand experience about the much touted Indian healthcare. I'm not gonna go into details because it serves no purpose but suffice to say I don't share your glowing appraisal of the Indian hospitals/healthcare system.

Now, when you said "whether you like it or not we may have doctors but not equipments or certified labs", I believe that is a dangerous blanket generalisation. The laparoscopy and Endoscopy (Colonoscopy and Gastroscopy) diagnosis/treatment (which r231 mentioned in an earlier post) can be performed at the Nigerian-Turkish Nizamiye hospital right there in Abuja which begs the question of "how much do Nigerians even know about their own country"?.

Please don't get me wrong, I'm not against the idea of flying him to India or anywhere else for that matter if the eventual consensus opinion is that it is best option but to presuppose that flying him to India will miraculously heal him (like some people are alleging) is what I don't agree with.

Like I said earlier, my intention is not make this another long-winding, back and forth argument. So, please consider this my last piece on the subject matter and if I don't reply your subsequent comments, it's not out of disrespect for your opinion.

PEACE

I don't intend to turn this to another long, back and forth argument thing.

I guess my point is that nothing is "guaranteed" and India is not exactly the "modern medicine haven" that you are making it out to be either. When the consensus was that TEHN should take over the case, it means we all trust their judgements and so far, DJ is way much better and there's no evidence of a relapse. What more could we possibly wish for?

SHALOM

Please you guys should stop pushing this idea of flying him to India as if it's the "be all end all" solution. Thankfully, DJ has so far been responding to treatments according to recent reports from the TEHN folks. I'm sure they would have considered all the viable alternatives. Give Naija doctors a break please.

Caleycash:
pls man...I don't know if u have any idea of such.the embassy said I should check in two months time for my visa;of which I emailed them.then they emailed me back stating that they are not authorized to issue me a student visa...pls if u have any idea about this let me know ASAP. thanks

Like I said in the earlier post you quoted, it's only the Migrationsamt that authorises whether a visa should be granted/denied. In case, you didn't understand my earlier post, below is how the process works:

When you submit your visa application (and supporting documents) to the Embassy in Abuja, the embassy forwards your application to the Migrationsamt in Switzerland. The Migrationsamt in turn contacts your school to verify your admission claims (and sometimes requests for some documents that can only come from your school) and evaluates (based on the supporting documents you submitted) whether you are "able" (usually, financially) to successfully undertake the proposed study. It is based on this evaluation that they decide to grant/deny you a student visa. It is this decision that is transmitted to Abuja embassy where they print your visa and stick it to your passport (if granted) or otherwise.

So, strictly speaking, the Abuja embassy is NOT authorised to grant/deny a visa application; such action is an exclusive preserve of the Migrationsamt.

Good luck

I'm not sure I can help you much as I don't know much about social sciences courses

Good luck

Kingsleypower:
I carried out a mini research and I discovered that MOST public universities in Switzerland lecture business related courses in English; I intend to study a business course,I am particularly interested in the university of applied sciences Zurich. for those who are students, what sorts of questions are asked in the admission examinations??.

Yes, they do. However, Zurich University of Applied Science (ZHAW) has some courses that are exclusively in English (such as facility management) while others are both in German and English. In any case, a level C proficiency in English and German is usually required for most of the courses. As per questions asked, depends on the proposed course of study whether facility management or environmental engineering.

Kingsleypower:
how possible is it for a non German/Italian/French speaker to learn any of these languages so as to speak/understand nd write well enough in d space of months

Everything is possible or so they say. However, I must be honest with you, German is a very difficult language to learn. Throw in the added complication of everyone around you speaking Swiss German ( which is different from German, by the way), then you have a perfect recipe for frustration.

Kingsleypower:
Its really encouraging to know that this kind of thread exists. German,French,Italian...wow, how then will an average Nigerian interact with the Locals??
With regards to admission into public universities, what options do i have because i neither understand nor speak German,French and Italian.

From MSc level upward, all courses are taught in English (At least for ETH and University of Zurich). Hence, you are not required to speak any of those languages. It doesn't hurt if you learn one of them though.

E Od*** sent you £100.00 GBP via paypal

God Bless

Is it alright to use the regular TEHN paypal account?

I asked about this earlier

Just some clarifications:

Is TEHN involved in this guy's case? I believe some of us would like to help out but do not operate a Nigerian account. Previously, Paypal was used by TEHN to achieve this goal.

I have read through the entire pages and there is no indication whatsoever, I guess this is only for the Naija folks.
