A quick search for DINO on ABU Alumni list..Confirms that the senator was not a graduate of the said university irrespective of any year he claims he graduated. You can also do some search...

Hi sir! What is the chance of getting into METU with diploma in Engineering 3.78 of 4.00 from Nigeria polytechnic and B-parallel WAEC? what level will I be admitted to? Preferential the Ankara campus.

The level you will be admitted is based on the courses you have done, passed at acceptable grade level and relevant to METU courses. This can only be determined after you are admitted. This promotion is basically for METU Campus in Cyprus.

Or how much is engineering in the NC campus? What Scholarship do you think I can also get between the 25-100%?
or any English speaking schools in Turkey? North Cyprus? you can suggest sir. Thanks.

Fees for any program in METU Cyprus is 9000usd without a scholarship. All applicants are assessed for scholarship and you can be awarded between 25 to 100% and that will determine your final fees. Based on your grade you likely will be considered for 50%.

FALL SEMESTER ADMISSION is opened in METU

...Benefit from Scholarships ranging from 25-100% for academically sound students.

fashmann:
boss wip,please if that is the present fee for physiotherapy,

1.how much will i pay before i travel to cyprus?

2.explain how a fee is paid installmentally?

1. You will pay one semester fee roughly 2200usd

2. Installments are allowed only after your first semester and it's listed on emu website. Meaning you can't pay installments as a new student.

fashmann:
Sir wip morning.., pls do you have an idea about the tuition fee of both pharmacy and physiotherapy (english)??... Cos am considering both now since nursing isn't taught in English at EMU

There are other universities offering Nursing in English in Cyprus or why must it be EMU? Pharmacy with 50% scholarship is 5700USD per year and Physiotherapy 4400usd.

fashmann:
Thanks very much Boss wip... Wanna also ask if there is an ordinary nursing course not the nursing(turkish)... Cos am considering another health course apart from pharmacy......

Yes, there are universities offering nursing via English medium.

Wip7...how can we get our documents across to you for masters?

My email address is right there in my signature.

fashmann:
Hello sir wip, pls I wanna ask the next step to take.... I already have my international passport,olevel result and passport photograph..
If after I register, what is the next thing I should be expecting... Aspiring emu...

If you have the requested ready. Mail me those documents for the admission, let me know the course you wish to study. After you application is assessed, if ok, you will be issued admission letter. Then you will need to pay first deposit to EMU account. Then payment confirmation and visa preparation.

Sir Wip .. Help .. My brother has been going to the embassy for his passport .. and today mark's 1 month that he had his interview .. they just keep telling him to come back .. remember i posted on the thread that they asked for his testimonial .. he gave it to the guy and on the day he was suppose to collect the guy said he lost the testimonial that if he has another one he can give to him .. and also give him another travel reservation which he did .. after which the guy gave him a date to come which was last week wednesday .. since then all they keep telling him is to come back its not ready .. they are not giving him a said day or date to come .. just keep telling him come back on friday .. come back on monday ... and then today again .. what might the problem be sir ..

They may be verifying some details regarding his admission or documents submitted. Or the guy has lost his passport same way he lost his testimonial.

I can't comprehend why testimonial is being requested anyway.

Unfortunately beyond March, he may not be issued visa since mid-exam will be knocking in most schools. Let hope for the best!

If he lives around, he can visit then weekly.

Best wishes to him!

Thank you so much for this detailed info. I appreciate.

I'm torn in-between doing an MBA/ international Business- and lately hospitality and tourism management ( the latter because of job opportunities though). Which schools would you advice me to apply to? I'm very concerned about job opportunities immediately after studies. What documents will be required too. Thanks alot.

Depends on the funds you have. For instance, EMU master program will cost you around 5700 euro based on current exchange rate, while some others are cheaper, almost 4000 euros. If you are ready let me know, so I can apply for you, and you can choose from EMU, CIU, METU, CSU, EUL and many other universities in Cyprus. For a master program, you will need to have your bachelor certificate, transcript and international passport page.

Regarding job opportunities immediately you finish, is not what any person can guarantee. Many finished the tourism or others but have no job while many also finished and some got the job...What I have learnt here is that if you are ready to speak the language..you may easily find tourism related jobs. Also, if you consider teaching, there are fewer graduates of tourism with PhD around for now.

Best wishes in your decision.

@wip

Hello bro. Nice work you're doing. I just stumbled on this thread while searching for infos about cyprus.

I'm a prospective msc student and i'm looking for an affordable school to do my msc and also a place where I can work while studying. How much shld I budget for an msc course in cyprus.

The entire tuition fee for the program depends on the program and university. It ranges 3900-5000 euros for the entire program.

What is it like living there after studies? Do they issue pr after studies? I also heard tourism and hospitality mgt is the most lucrative course there, how true is this?

Cyprus don't issue PR after studies. However, after studies, you are free to apply for a job, can live and work provided you have the legal permits. We have lots of graduates working after their studies, and there universities employing qualified graduates. Yes, Tourism and hospitality is good since some of the students find jobs in accommodation/hotel industries.

Is it possible to move to another country from there like say canada? Pls don't mind my plenty questions.

Thanks in advance

Cyprus does not stop you from moving to wherever you choose to move to. Hence, you can move to anywhere provided you have the requirements to be admitted to your destination.

GLOBALINF:
see this

Your advert is misleading...

1. Cyprus is not in Eastern Europe

2. The tuition fees for master in EMU is not 3600 euro is roughly 6000 USD even with a scholarship (50%).

3. There is no FREE transportation for students around the city 24/7 unless specific university buses to specific destinations.

4. Discount card to shop does not work in Cyprus.

Is good and important for prospective students to be told the truth rather than fancy lies! Kindly change does pieces of stuff in your advert.

john335:
@wip7 are you saying that if one comes now after classes and registration has already began one won't have a place to stay or a job to keep one busy till sept when one can register.
because I know some one who paid her fees late.... like the last week of Feb and was told her name has been sent to the embassy. She was contemplating on going ahead with the visa or waiting till august.
She said her agent told her that she could come and freeze studies till sept or get a 50-50 chance of registering for spring if she comes before 20th of march.
Since she is fresh student...know nobody in Cyprus what do u think should do....be patient till august or go ahead for spring

First, most universities like EMU, METU etc don't register students after add and drop period. Reason being that some of the classes might have conducted quiz or covered some lectures the students may not be able to cope. While some universities can still register the student and may not care if the student fails or not. So in the case of EMU, the student that comes late will be registered as a student but may have to wait until the following semester to start classes.

Some universities hostel are filled up and that may lead the late comer to go outside searching for an apartment. That is not a problem anyway.

But what is the essence of just paying an exorbitant amount for an apartment/hostel for almost 7 months when the student is not registered to take courses?
Jobs are scarce so...what if the person does not find one and still paying for an apartment and eating daily? Take note, due to the exchange rate, this place is times 5 expensive compared to Nigeria.

Best wishes in whatever decision the person takes!

Sir Wip,
I will be completing my third year. Do I need to get any approval letter from department, though I am aware the school give recommendation letter.
Thanks

You may get recommendation letter but the embassies are more interested in your travelling histories, ties that will make you return, financials and how relevant what to you want to do during your trips to what you are currently doing.

lexycool01:
@wip I want to attend a conference in United state by July, is it advisable to make use of the embassy in lefkosa or go to nigeria to apply. I have heard people say us embassy here mostly don't grant Nigerians visa

They do grant visas. Good traveling history, a tie that will likely show you will return after the conference are what they mostly look for here. Sometime they look for gap in your educational life or little background check.

Just around January second week, my two undergrad and master students applied for a conference in Florida. One has spent just one year in Cyprus and been to Italy. The other lady been to U.K.....both were issued 2 yrs multiple entry USA visa ...the visa officer did not even check the bank statement nor collect it.. she only asked questions related to their sponsors and how the conference is related to their studies.

Xrayy:
Hello people in the house, Wip7..
I wanna send some documents from Cyprus to Germany via courier, as it is very urgent. Please what courier company/service can you recommend, that is quite reliable and not too expensive?
Thanks.

Use MNG kargo.

tcitachi:
Sir pls how long does it take for school To send d UAL leteer i paid today....thanks

As soon as they recieve your payment.

tcitachi:
Nope I haven't goten d visa yetjust got d call which is d conditional one for Ciu that's y am askn because I was told I cantill get my visa to nc ...but thanks I can stay on d island till sept I've where I can stay ...I just want to confirm if I can still go coz am planing on paying d initial school fees next week ...thanks so much plss need ur counseling and advice asap guyz

Classes already started for the spring entry. I doubt the embassy will issue the visa... but you can try. So, first book appointment and see the appointment date. If the appointment day is early than 15th March .. you can try but if more than... don't go waste your 250 usd visa fee.

tcitachi:
I've gotten my CAL sir,..I was told I still Ve till d end of this month to go to NC...just want advice and counseling plss so I will knw wah to do,..can I go this month and then wen I get there shit my admission till sept and what re d necessary documents for resident permit as well as d necessary tests ...thanks

Have you gotten your visa yet? Cos having CAL does not translate to having issued visa. If you have your visa and you wish to travel to Cyprus this month without registering until Sept... the question is what will you be doing till Sept? Where will you stay? You have all the finances to allow you stay till Sept?

To your questions.. yes you can decide to register in Sept; however, you will only be issued 90 days stay on arrival. After 90 days your stay expired. YOu may or may not be fined when you want to do your resident permit.

Documents for resident permits willbe communicated to you by your university. The most important one is student registration certificate and health report.

Xrayy:
Hi guys, Wip7. Nice job you guys are doing here. Please I need an advice. I am in my final year of study in Cyprus, and I work without a work permit. I intend making one, but someone said it could scupper my chances of being given a visa in another country, for higher studies. Please, how true is this?

Having a workpermit will boost you rather than ruin you. However, most times you can't hold two valid permits on your passport here unless one is canceled. If not your place of work will be paying double tax since you have student permit and you want to get work permit.

tcitachi:
But I applied before d deadline and according to d agent if I apply before d deadline that i will still meet up

Ok

willjoe:
thought late entries would be considered.

Ok

tcitachi:
.....

Sir pls I applied for MBA at Ciu and its been two weeks and am yet to get any acceptance letter....plss will like to knw if there is a reason and can I apply for winter intake and travel wey b4 resumption ? Thanks

Could be due to the fact that the university already resumed for the semester you applied for. Kindly send me your complete documents for next entry. You can only be issued visa from August 2017 and you can travel then, if you applied for FALL 2017 entry.

Tonysax:
Please @Mr wip, I need clarification on my chances of running my masters program with my HND 3.10cgp, in any university @ Cyprus, and if I can't, can't I apply for a PGD program den or undergraduate course wit age 27 on my international passport.

You had sent me email before and I responded to your email. EMU, METU, EUL don't admit students with HND into master programs. Send me your complete transcript for OND, HND, certificates and international passport page may likely secure you admission with other universities.

willjoe:
boss, so EMU, CIU and co. will NOT admit a new student next month??

Spring (Feb) 2017 semester has started. Next entry is FALL(Sept) 2017. Admissions and issuing of acceptance letters commence next month.

fashmann:
thanks bro..but,will the form for the fall 2017 sept be out by april?...and please list all the documents i need to process it....thanks

You need your olevel certificate, international passport page and photograph passport ONLY... for an undergraduate application.

remsonik:
Please I need to send some things to my sister in North Cyprus. Please anyone that can advise me on how to go about it. Thanks

It depends on what you want to send and weight/size. Then you can get some advices

fashmann:
hello sir wip...i plan to study at the EMU north cyprus.A bro is currently assisting me in all the process..i when to the immigration service in my state to process my international passport and they asked me to come back for the passport after some weeks...so,i want to ask that if i later have the passport,what would be my next step to process my documents and admission....

I want to meet up with the april registration and i also plan to aspire to study pharmacy,what are the requirements and steps to take...thanks

Unfortunately you can't meet up the spring semester again. The semester started already and university won't send your name to embassy even you make payment.

Get all your documents ready towards FALL 2017 entry (Sept).
When your documents are complete, let me know!

terrywales:
@wip7. Sir I just graduated from Cyprus international University. Will be going back to Nigeria on 28th of this month the ticket is booked. I have an open ticket to Istanbul (atlass jet) and connecting flight ( eypty air) to Nigeria on 28th. My question is that I will like to secure a transit visa to Turkey. ( just to get few stuff for my family back home). I have all the necessary documents expect valid student letter because I have graduated. My student letter has expired on 10th of this month. I can I still be able to secure the transit visa because I will need it to in order to claim my luggage in Turkey. While coming to Cyprus this January, I was not able to get my luggage in Turkey because I don't have transit visa, I had to complain at ercan Airport before my luggage was later sent to me after 3days.

Sure you will be issued TR visa..as I know there is a letter like student letter always given to graduates showing they had graduated and that will suffice for your student letter. Your case is different from those that had not graduated and wanting to be issued TR visa.

Best wishes

The Turkish embassy called my brother and asked for my brothers testimonial , does he still need to authenticate the testimonial or just take it there like that

A testimonial is not a certificate issued after completing a course. So such won't be attested by the ministry of education. However, he may need to notarize it, even though any entity can issue such!

The embassy seems to loose its value by asking for trivial stuff like this.
