Hope not the community leaders they wanted to arrest initially in the name of peace keeping?


If I know I'm in a wanted list, it would be very difficult for Nigerian security to catch me. I wonder how they do catch those people sha.

Not when the country doesn't have facial recognition security. It would be difficult.

No be only to dey wanted list. If you resemble anyone of them, run oh

I think i need to unfollow this page for a week or two. When i return, this tension and anxiety would have been gone. Everyone's heary beat rate is on���

Lol... By the time you come back, you hear that people have finished admission processing two weeks ago and are now procuring visa for both FGC & UK. You ask "how? You didn't get any email". Then you check your spam and see yours. grin.

Some persons including PTDF website misled us

PTDF didn't mislead anyone.

While you thought that just being contacted was all that was needed to be a successful PTDF scholar, you didn't put into consideration many important factors and variables that'd actually get you on the final list. Some of these factors, you nor PTDF have no control of.

Firstly, those contacted aren't the only persons in the world that are considered for admission into the selected courses in these universities. These unis are well sought after by scholars the world over. The best the unis can do is that of reaching an "inclusive" agreement with PTDF. But the number of "qualified" scholars they eventually select isn't controlled by PTDF but by the school's admission process.

Secondly, these universities have quota for each department which they strictly abide by, unlike what you see in Nigerian unis where they just keep piling an unmanageable number of students into universities with no infrastructure. So students to staff ratio will be maintained. For instance the availability of research supervisors for a given area of research may affect qualified PhD scholars.

Lastly, the timeline of getting things done in Nigeria is so slow and undependable compared to that of developed countries. By the time other scholars will be done with the admission process, language courses and settling in to their courses proper, PTDF scholars may still be at the stage of processing visa. The only thing that is free and easy in this country is when your uncle that is a manager in that company offers you that job grin But if you want to get what you are deserving of you must sweat. I just hope things improve in this country.

Bro these people are professionals. Better still they hire professionals for this exercise.
You don't expect them to start blabbing that hey; "Those who were sent mails are the candidates selected while those who didn't get mails are unsuccessful".
At the first stage of screening, it was obvious to applicants who were not sent invitations via mail and sms that they were not successful.

I wish you don't expect them to publish two lists, one for successful candidates and another for unsuccessful.

Remember at the first stage you were sent an email and sms for interview while others didn't get. Yet you didn't think of it as an opaque process. I think you are just being egocentric.

While you aren't egocentric, your ego is too loud. Quiet it down a little so you can listen to some reason. Or better still turn it off.

When people state facts here, you don't have to necessarily agree with them. You are free to find fault in there reasoning but not go ahead to insult their person. You've been doing this a lot.

Trust me. I've been in chat groups where people have the freedom to trash themselves. But this group is met for dissemination of specific information. We all ideally should be anonymous here.

The fact still remains that PTDF haven't shortlisted anyone in the final list, if not it'd be out by now. You don't have to preempt them because that way you subtly make them look like a rouge institution while at the same you are claiming that they know what they are doing (professionals you call it). The mail you received wasn't to congratulate you on making the final list, was it?

I've said this a "million" times. The mail contact is for a purpose. If you get one and it asks you to do anything just go about it. If you face any challenges be free to ask for help here or anywhere else. Why won't we Nigerians try to be objective than be taken over by sentiments.

Well, I also applied to the two schools and there's no contact after interview.

Im PhD candidate, what of you?

I'm PhD too. Applied for Lyon. No contact. If they have been contacted then someone either directly or by proxy would have put it here or in the WhatsApp group. Plus no one here is hinting us on any follow up from contacted PhD candidates (even from other schools). At least, one pertinent thing is assignment of research supervisors.

See this as pure information no sentiments attached. Summarily, what I'm saying is if the you get an email asking you to do something just go about it. That's probably your own contribution to making the final list ready. Probably not smiley

Lets call a spade a spade.... As long as you were contacted via mail for the f/g/c you are already in the final list... Those who got China were told to do police character report so as to facilitate their resident permit in China and also help in processing their visa..... Does DAT strike a cord Stop your speculations bro. If you haven't been contacted for f/g/c just start praying for UK own..... All those contacted for f/g/c already got the scholarship

Lol... I assume you would have been done with the celebrations by now - informing family and friends, the farewell party and all that. All that remains is fold your hands, do nothing and wait for the final list. But while your hope is at its summit, don't shoot down the hope of others.

BTW, You can keep yourself busy here by for instance asking or telling us how you are going about that police character report of yours or if you have any other challenge.

Egbon u just criticised someone's comment as been an unnecessary speculation then u followed it up with ur own speculation, lol.
I hail u oh


Unnecessary speculations are made by those who don't care to show how their speculations will logically lead to reality. But the person I'm quoting isn't even in that category. The speculation is just invalid.

Now, you tell me how I don't stand a chance on the final list, if I've not been contacted. No. Try to convince me. Don't just tell.

Bodmillz:


I don’t think people that were not contacted stands a chance on the list. The list will be published when those contacted get their offers from their chosen institutions.

PS: just my opinion.

Stop all these unnecessary speculations. If you have been contacted after the interview, it's because PTDF has assigned you to a particular school that further more requires you to take some additional steps to secure the scholarship. It doesn't mean you are on the final list automatically.

Infact, if I'm to be statistically unbiased then those contacted already have a slimmer chance of securing the scholarship, because if you don't meet up with the further requirements for your assigned school, you are out. Those who haven't been contacted have their options open especially those that did the UK interview and have not been contacted for FGC.

So if you have been contacted, kindly follow the instructions on the emails and pray to God you make it on the final list. If you haven't been contacted, just be patient. Don't let anxiety kill you smiley

No publication? How possible.... Your résumé seem somehow without any publication

Why all the fuzz about publications. As for academic publications - in the developed world, if you have one then it is assumed you have started a PhD or some other postgraduate research related program except you are talking about textbooks, novels, biographies, "handouts", "leaflets" and those made in the newspaper grin.
When you become a true researcher then you can start making genuine publications. That's the ideal thing.

I didn't say i got information from anywhere.
Anyways, after my UK interview I asked the lady who called me in for the interview when we were going to be contacted, and she told me by the end of May. That's the most reliable info I've got.
But I'm just saying we make information a bit more available here. That's all. Let's just be hopeful

I don't want to believe persons here have been contacted (either email or text) and don't care to mention it. Even if they don't care to give us the details.

Are you saying they don't need the transcript to get the admission for you??

Does UK schools grant admission without transcript??

On my side for PhD, the total grade point on my transcript was recorded for me during the interview. So, at the least PTDF can vouch for you that you have your transcript. But it's best you have a student copy asap if you don't have one. The usual thing (even without a scholarship) is that you use student copy for application pending when you get the admission. The School copy can be sent and received while you are into your studies already.

I think PTDF should sort all that out before they send mails to scholars on the country.
I am sure they will try Germany and France and China based on the ones that admit you

The main thing is the list of successful candidates. They can send you as many mails as possible for communication. But don't celebrate yet until you see your name on the final list of successful candidates. It will be published.
