Well, I will be studying in Nicosia -south cyprus. After my Master Degree, God willing I will be applying for my Doctorate in the US. With the help of a friend (Pure white) and few Professors. Meanwhile am still in Nigeria. I will be studying Oil and Gas Energy Engineering for 18months.

mctolspell: Academics! Oh! I wish I can type a little faster and much, damn! those hacker's that brought down Nairaland. It sucks to type those things I remember I have done before, it will not make this journal as interesting as I will like. what can a man do? Life goes on... I'm studying Civil Engineering, the little Africans that I met here all belong to the International Relations class. They often advise me to have a change of course before I move too far, some weren't advising but were saying to themselves that he's a new student, when he learns, he will change. Could it be that our academics is that bad in Nigeria or it's extremely difficult?
Oh well, I felt it myself, my first few classes in Calculus were like I was going to an Arabic class, I couldn't understand anything, Mathematics was never my best subject but still our High school education is very bad back home, the other nationals in the class were catching up, even some of my counterparts are finding a way to learn. I was stucked, no idea of what it is till after mid term, I tried to catch up but I was blessed with an 'F', the professor looks like a witch ehn, she no even dey smile at all. After my first semester result, I was wondering what my next step will be, two F's for the two calculation course, Physics was good nd the remaining 3 which is non calculation was good. Chai! Could it be that the cooperative money I came here with will be wasted like that or I will have to join the band wagon to study International relations? No offence to the IR scholars reading.
I had a plan, my dad already made me understand that Engineering my seems hard and difficult but in the long run, you smile more to the bank than other social sciences. well, we had that mentality in my family, we are not the most intelligent but we are one of the most determined, by failing and getting up. If I want a social science course, I would have been a graduate by now, I told myself, I decided to take those courses again and keep moving no matter the challenges, Almost 3 years, I'm still on it.. we are getting there by HIS grace.It was about 12 Nigerians in the Engineering faculty that set, we are less than 3 in that same faculty! You know what that means...

I enjoyed those stories and experience sharing. Could you tell us more? I have been accepted into one of the universities in Cyprus for Master.

fados4sure: When going to Republic of Cyprus, you need to note the followings:
1: You must You must have your OPEN return ticked with you
2: You must have minimum of 2500 euro's with you
3: You won't be allowed to work till after 6 months
If you don't have the above two, you will be sent back by Cyprus immigration boarder agency in the airport

. I already know that, Thanks though.

The school is University of Nicosia and my tuition is 4590 euros/year.

Please Can I ask a question abouth South Cyprus on this post or could someone help me locate a post about studying there?
Wipz I sent you an email few days ago but you don't want to reply my mail. Please I need urgent help. I think i should go ahead and ask my question.
I have been accepted into the University of Nicosia (M.Sc Oil and Gas Energy Engineering -18months), my parents will be sponsoring me for 12months. I have worked in Construction Companies in Nigeria. Can I possibly get a work in an office, Construction coy, oil and gas coy or any firm to pay for the remaining 6months? I wish to go for my Doctorate aboard before I can decide weather or not to return back to Nigeria. I need urgent professional Advice.

Please I wish to find out if my parents pay for my studies for a year, will I be able to work and complete my remaining 6months tuition by myself. I was accepted to study Oil and Gas Energy Engineering in Cyprus (M.Sc -18months). I need urgent response. What's the cost of flight from Nigeria to Nicosia?

Thanks.
