menaani:

I also want to believe its an error. but if they claim I've paid.....well, who am i to complain. thanks bro

Lol
Are you able to check your statement of account?
That one is key o... cos u will have to print it out and get it signed and stamped at the pg college.

bjaybalo:
Good evening, please I'll like to know if I can pay for a session at once.

The question is do you know how much u re to pay for the session?
And to ans ur question, you can only pay for the present semester, which will enable you to register for courses, but if you have more money and you feel u it's better for you to more pay now, you can load more fee card into your account than you need to, your balanc will be there till next semester when you will just pay the access charge to be able to access your account balance. Alternatively, you can buy more fee cards now and keep them safely till you have to pay sch fees, but it's quite risky. So my advice is pay abit above what you have to pay for now, and balance it up next semester.

Scroll down and see if u can click on your statement of account. Which will show you how much you have paid in. Because as it is, it's saying you have paid school fees, because If u don't pay up you cant register courses. But I believe it's an error on the site. It will clear out later

Legendre2:

Bros, presumably you did your Msc there too,.right?
If yes, do you have any idea on the total cost of fee for four semesters?

I can't clearly state the total amount you re likely to pay for the whole program. Sch fees was cheaper wen I got admission, it was increased the set that came in next... I paid a total of 132k for 5 semesters that I spent on msc. And I knw now they pay close to 130k in just a session, depending on d course.

menaani:

i dint have this information when i paid for the access fee. i submitted and it took me back to the homepage.

Log in again... and click the link "pay school fees" you should see the break down of your fees.

Legendre2:

Wow, just for a semester?

Fear self catch me....

Botov:
I have seen it jare...thank so much but this amount wey dem give you plenty pass my own o

Mine is for PhD... fear not!

This is what you see when you click on "pay access fee"

Bartork:



Curious minds
Always converge on same idea

Nice
Your different

avicky:

I've not gotten to that stage yet. I will do my departmental seminar by June. Thanks again.

Uwc!

Bartork:



Sometimes its better to keep quiet. I have gone through the thread and I understand better.

Either way we'll get the info we need we are not jambites

Ok. I will just zip it... guess i know how avicky felt when someone said she created confusion.

avicky:

Oh! Now I comprehend. Thanks for your concern.

Yu welcome!
What semester are u now? And how far have your form A gone?
Heard from one of my friends in school today that pg college is not attending to u guys for now, they didnt approve a date for his oral defense till next semester starts.

ikubch:

Exactly! Form A has nothing to do with new intake like some of us here. For now, we can't raise a headache considering the intention of this great thread. It is a diversion. Period!

I actually thought u were smarter than most of this other guys on nairaland... guess i was wrong.
And to help your ignorance... Form A is a concern of everybody on the thread as long as u have an admission for research masters or phd at OAU, its what u need to start thinking of from the moment you start course work and know who will be your supervisor. The earlier u know what form A is about... the better for u.

ikubch:

She is not a new PG student. Whatever form A, it must have something to do with her ongoing programme not new intake. Aaaaaargh!!!

Oga calm down...i Know that for sure ! And be sure to understand the facts b4 u jump to conclusions...

Dont Worry you will Find out what Form A is soon enough.

avicky:


Sorry, I don't remember quoting you?
I don't even understand your question.

you Said you have been busy with Form A and your thesis... so I Said form A Could be quite annoying... I mean the stress you have to go through... form going to the Faculty, corrections, then pg College and back... before you can get certification...
then I asked what stage are you with the form A?

No insult intended...

avicky:

You didn't offend me oh. Not at all.
Just busy with the form A/thesis.

That could be as annoying as annoying get... Form A... wat stage re u now?

papyskinsy:
who has paid acceptance fee??

Nobody... just calm down till u hear RESUME!

honsaint:
Someone (Part 4 undergraduate) told me, he heard they are resuming JUNE. That it is likely our (PG) resumption date too. Pls how true is it

It's all still speculations... but there's always some element of truth...

ruqs:
Pls does OAU offers Post graduate diploma in Law.thanks

No they don't. Sorry

babyfaceafrica:
thanks for taking out time to answer my question...some more please....how much do you think it will cost you till you finish you phd and how many years does it take?...are you doing any other job to bring income and upgrade ur finances or its just full time phd?...I hope to collect masters form by june at UI..mainly because they offer my preferred course Linguistics ..my first degree was at Unilag..could have stayed there,but I don't like monotomy,variety is the spice of life also Unilag,UI and Oau are the best university in this country right now...just offer me some advise on how you scaled through with distinction in your masters amid the ferocious ife lecturers..God bless

The cost of Phd is a bit high, so yes u need a job to help you with it. Even tho Phd is said to be full time, but it is flexible enough to allow u work and study, the program is a bit capital intensive so u have to have a source of income. Phd duration is btw 3-5yrs... Depending on u, ur research, ur supervisor and the pg college design.
I really don't know much about UI, so I really can't give u much advise about them, except their program is quite tasking and u get to finish on time unlike oau (for masters).

gracefulpillar:

THANKS!!I just got approved by the PG board. av been given a student account and admission letter. Pls what next?
after this, will there be any screening? if yes!!! what are the requirements? and hope there is nothing like termination of the admission bc of documents. Anticipating ur reply

Just relax... Start getting ur self ready to resume. The pg portal to pay school fees is not up yet, probably till when the new semester begins, which we still don't know now. There is no more screening, u will just need to go register at ur dept once the school resume, so that u can meet others and link up with ur classes. All the best.

olatricia:
Hello o Eyin Agba,

Please, am a complete novice yet I want to run an MSc program at OAU. Please, help with advice. My preferred course of study is Economics. How do I go about this. Thanks in anticipation of your response.

Hmmmmm... Economics is one of the most difficult dept to get admission in oau... u need a good undergrad result,, pass the entrance exam and interview.

gracefulpillar:

I applied for African History, pls do u havean idea if they easily give admission? av been recommended by faculty but so scared if PG will approve,all my documents have been submitted to PG and department

Dont be afraid once you have done all things right... just have faith.

babyfaceafrica:
if you don't mind I will like to ask some question?.....how easy was it for you to finish msc last year and enrol immediately for phd?....do you have a rsearch topic before or were you given by your lecturers?....are. You working because I know phd is quite expensive so how do you hope to fund it?..how easy was it for you to see a supervisor immediately because I learn its not that easy even if you have a good topic..thanks

Hmmmmm... well in oau you can apply for Phd once your msc result has been approved by the senate. Mine was approved a week after admission open, so it was easy to apply.
Phd admission process is relative to departmental procedures... my dept didnt not demand me to present a research topic during the admission process, plus i finished my msc in d same dept, so they know my capabilities already, because i have ad to present papers in the dept b4... and my msc supervisor has also agreed to supervise my msc, so it was easy for them to make the decision, (which included mi writing an entrance examination tho). Some dept write exams and do interviews before they make their decision. Thats when they ask about your proposed research topic among other questions.
On your question about how easy it is to see ma supervisor, well one advantage of having done my msc is that you get to know and understand how each lecturer take their graduate student serious and their abilities/character, so you can know who to approach to be your supervisor, then you guys can agree on a plan to work with throughout the research stages.
The best thing about oau pg programme is that they give you flexibility on how you pay your fees, you can also apply for research grant too... but your supervisor and Hod must be ready to support this all the way, my former roommate got a research grant right after his msc... even when he was yet to get admission for his phd, thats because his dept helped him... your research proposal must be really good tho...
I hope i answered all your questions?

Hollarbeece:
i'm having d same problem too.

Please check your spam mail to be sure...

Legendre2:

Identical to my case, though I'm in Physics.

Please just be patient... maybe they have not done your dept yet...

Botov:
I know someone who has been admitted and given a student account number but hasn't received his admission letter. What could be the cause and what should he do? Though it's less than a week that he saw admitted on his application status o. Pls,advise

Please make sure d email address you used to register is correct.... and you should check your spam to be sure you dont have it yet, sometimes important mails go into spam. If you still dont have it by monday, then i advise you get to the pg college to complain.

Johnnyhardex:

This Is for a friend,

2016-03-01 => Recommended by Department
2016-03-01 => Recommended by Faculty

It is more than a month already but no recommendation from PG COLLEGE yet, what could be the cause?

What program and what dept? Plus maybe the pg board have not done his/her dept yet. But he shud get to the pg college to ask.

GambaOsaka:


Thanks for your input.

He went to the PG college and was told that the college has written to the PG board to ask why some applicants were accepted and some were rejected. He told him o come back tomorrow but he couldn't say whether it is still possible to reverse the decision by the PG board.

This is serious and a very new development.... like i said in my post earlier the college changes its policies without notice and it creates confusion. Your brother should start praying o. Those guys can form difficult sometimes, but all will be well... pls tell him to follow it up and be on their neck. Cheers.
