I like to confirm that you guys visas have been approved by south Cyprus migration departments since 3days, however, I could not log into the mail due to security stuff. I will send the link probably in 2days. Congrats and I will be flying via south Cyprus Airport so I will check the landlady to advise on the apartments or not. Send your mil just to my official email address.

Okay mr godson please can you help me get an admission into either Eastern meditteranean university or girne american university

Kiyah3:
Please I'm new here but it seems Mr wip7 has all the answers to *study in Cyprus* questions ..........so Mr wip7 please how can I get an admission to EMU this September and a scholarship also

worry357:
You can help yourself by reading back through this section, all your questions are already answered.
Also go to the website of EMU and research on there.

Have you studied this thread well, do you have the requirement? Are you financially capable to sponsor yourself till the end of your studies as jobs are quite scarce or can only feed you in case you found one. Have you studied the university website?

For me I can apply for you; however, am more interested in applicant that is financially capable, intelligently stable and academically sound to study abroad.

APPLICATION FOR FALL IN METU IS NOW OPEN- 2015

@wip7,
Please I was given admission to METU Ankara but first I have to confirm my admission on the portal before they can send me acceptance letter. Is it compulsory for me to give them an expected date of arrival or can I just confirm without indicating an expected date of arrival? Please I need your reply quickly!

The date you will indicate is "expected date", so is tentative and does not mean you must by any compulsion arrive on this date.

gadafi101:
Hi.

Please, mrwip or those here, in ur honest opinion, which of theses schools is better in terms of msc oil and gas engineering, university of Nicosia or Frederick University, Nicosia?

Also, i have all required documents ready for the application process, except my BSc certificate of which my school says it would be ready by August ending. My school gave me an attestation letter to that effect. Can i get admission with the documents I presently have?

Both university are private, the University of Nicosia is much larger in terms of size. The most important is they have almost all there programs accredited by the ministry. Very important thing you must note and for every applicant, south Cyprus institutions operate in a system that university may offer programs for years but yet to get ministry accreditation. After some years and the program meets the requirement then it will be accredited, however, some students might have graduated even before it is approved.
In summary, Msc oil in both University based on my knowledge are both accredited and located in lively cities, so if you will be choosing based on popularity, age, size and web ranks: Then go for University Nicosia.

gadafi101:
Also, i have all required documents ready for the application process, except my BSc certificate of which my school says it would be ready by August ending. My school gave me an attestation letter to that effect. Can i get admission with the documents I presently have?

Yeah you have 85% assurance you may meet up, as of last week the university sent me update that ministry has extended their application till end of August, so you may have to initiate the process now.

After surfing through this thread and other threads i have not found anyone that genuinely claims that he is a student of METU ankara,but if you are providing information based on the fact that you know how one METU Ankara Student applied and obtained his Visa,you should tell me. Notwithstanding i appreciate all you are doing here.Thank you

I provided the info based on how major schools in Turkey and TRNC operate. I dont scout for info online but directly from the source based on personal contacts, personal working and professional experience. We have students that transferred from TRNC to public unis in Turkey and last 2 semesters I secured admission for 4 brothers into METU Ankara.

The four brothers case: They all schooled in Turkish college in Abuja, have some basic and intermediate knowledge of Turkish language and have 1 year tourism multi-entry visas earlier and visited Turkey 2-3 times before. After admission secured, the major or public information is that student can pay tuition fees during registration however, this information may be misleading for those that needs visa to enter Turkey while many have gone this route. In order to avoid stories that touches the pile, they made payments stated clearly on the website relating to their programs, they earlier booked appointment and flew at the specified dates. They were able to convert the visas to residence permit. However, I have seen cases of those that were not able to convert while the police departments want them get student visas....district and regions differs! so plan well!

Pertaining to your case, you have the guide book with you and you have made contacts with the university officials, then kindly follow. I do wish you success in your academic pursuit!!

zeb04:
hello mr wip7 I sent my credentials through charity luba.com and I applied for a school in north Cyprus. and a lady called and promised to get to me today by 4pm.

my problem is I sent statement of result instead of my transcript and that's because my school is still slow in handing it to me. will that constitute a problem of any kind?

I believe charity luba is an agent or organization related to that. They will probably know exact documents or materials you required to get admitted unless they dont know their job. Since they did not tell you to submit your transcript, means what you gave them is sufficient enough for them. Should you have any issue, you can inquire directly from them. I do hope I have answered your question?

benji93:
Dr WIP, thank you once again, I have contacted METU ankara International student office and they told me that i should send them the email of the related office of the Turkish Embassy in Nigeria, so they can send them my acceptance letter. So what do u have to say about this Sir?

benji93:
Dr WIP , Please Is <embassy.abuja@mfa.gov.tr> the related email of the turkish embassy in Nigeria that METU ankara International Student office has to send my acceptance letter and admission notice to? Hoping to hear from you soon Sir.

hmmmm I am assuming the person you spoke with is either a newbie, lost or clueless regarding your request. The university in this region dont send emails to embassy. The details sent goes via 2-3 channels right from the university to the embassy. In most cases (93%), it goes via the local authority (ministry or embassy in turkey) and they communicate directly with Turkish embassy Abuja or elsewhere. Or a double fax-system is used especially in case of METU.

One question is have you made your payment? if you have made your payment, the right person in METU will dispatch your details via the right channels to Abuja if you have earlier collected your originals from Nigeria.

@Wip7
Good afternoon Mr wip pls sir I haven't gotten my confirmation letter sir pls sir it's getting kinda late and I don't know what's happening sir pls sir I'm looking forward to ur cute response sir......thanks

I can confirm to you that from today, the confirmation letters shall be released and first details will be package to Abuja from 20th July. Advise to apply during August for visa. Eastern Mediterranean University.




METU: The first batch shall be sent to embassy on 15th July and applicants can apply from 25th July. For the METU applicants, kindly pre-book your accommodation.

terrywales:
Mr wip. I read in the check list that flight reservation is part of the criteria needed. Does that means I have to book my flight ahead of time before appearing at the embassy. Thanks

As the name implies.."Flight reservation" ...get a ticket on tentative dates and submit alongside your application.

...and some explanation below..

benji93:
Thank you Dr WIP, but u miscontrue something, i have been admitted into METU ankara, and i have received the acceptance letter both my email and post, but i completed my secondary school in Ghana, and wrote WASSCE in Ghana, when i was applying, a section of the application directed me to fill in my nationality and place of birth and i did that accordingly(Nigeria and Lagos), another part directed me to fill in a contact address where i would like the to send me the letter of acceptance,and i provided one, but i did not specifically inform them i wanted the acceptance letter to be sent to the turkish embassy in Ghana.So please what do u have to say concerning this Sir?

I have replied you above correctly. If you wish to apply for visa in Turkish embassy in Ghana, you can do that provided you have legal residence permit in Ghana. You will email or call your chosen University to send your details to Turkish embassy in Ghana.

If you want Turkish embassy in Nigeria. Kindly inform them also. Since they are not wizard/witchcraft most of them believe by default that Nigerian holding Nigeria passport lives in Nigeria by DEFAULT. But if you dont live in Nigeria, then re-set them by telling them where you want the details to be sent to.

NOTE: the details I referred to above, means copy of your acceptance letter, payment details if any, submitted docs during application...........all goes to embassy in order to attend to you.

benji93:
Good day Dr WIP, i appreciate your previous reply.I am a prospective student of METU ankara, but i live in Ghana, if METU has sent my acceptance letter to the embassy, would it be the Turkish Embassy in Ghana or Turkish embassy in my home country Nigeria

You can choose where to send it to provided you have legal residence. If you are living legally (documented) in Ghana and wants to apply in Ghana...you will inform your university to send the details to Turkish embassy in Ghana and it will be done. We do that for our own students that live elsewhere, so is not an issue!

kcbentley:
@Wip7
Good afternoon Mr wip pls sir I haven't gotten my confirmation letter sir pls sir it's getting kinda late and I don't know what's happening sir pls sir I'm looking forward to ur cute response sir......thanks

Its not late sir. The university resumes in October and we are in July. The university is working on releasing the confirmation letters and consequently dispatch the details to the embassy for the first batch!. So towards August middle, you can put in for your visa application!

Success!

Pauluche:
Thank you very much Sir. You're indeed a BLESSING to mankind

Wish u success!

Pauluche:
Good day Mr Wip,
I've been following your thread on naira land for sometime now and I must say I'm greatly impressed by the support you have given to everyone who has seek your help.
I just received my letter of acceptance from Eastern Mediterranean University, Cyprus to study M. Sc in Economics with thesis. I was given 50% discount on tuition fee. How much is the fee per annum for M. Sc in Economics with thesis?

Kindly follow this link you will find the fee structure related to you, then introduce the 50% awarded to see how much you will pay for entire program. You will multiply the fee per 8 courses plus thesis (whole program).

http://ww1.emu.edu.tr/emu_v1/media/assets/files/tuition-fees/tuition-fees-postgraduate-2015-16.pdf

Pauluche:
I was asked to deposit $4, 000.Does this cover tuition for the entire duration of the program (2years)?

After you have done the eco-maths from that link, then you will know if it covers 2years or not.....

Pauluche:
What's the minimum amount I'm expected to spend to get settled including the required $4, 000, accommodation and ticket fee.

I dont know about ticket cost, you can check with airlines websites based on time of traveling or visit the sales unit of the airlines at the airport. Accommodation ranges 1300-3500usd per year depending on choice, facilities and distance. Do the math, it will give you idea on what you need!

Pauluche:
Thirdly what are the steps I need to take from now on?

First, ensure you have around 6000usd to pay for your program and then pay the minimum requested into university bank ALONE not agent bank. Ensure you have accommodation for about 2 years and ensure you have minimum of 200usd monthly at least to sustain you. Ensure you have flight fee.


Steps: After you have paid the tuition, wait for confirmation from the university, proceed to Turkish embassy website for visa requirements and apply for visa, fly to Cyprus and start school, study well, pass with good grades and gather exceptional skills, graduate and go back home to rule your world..

kcbentley:
Hello Mrwip
Pls my fada n d agent paid to the bank and I was told d money still remains with cbn until they delivered it and it's like dey have made the paymennt to the bank since on friday I guess...well what I heard is dat d money is still with cbn I heard dat's der policy..but dey said tomorrow dey will deliver it to d school but why is it like pls @mrwip I'm looking forward to ur cute response.

When your cash is received by the university, your agent will be notified by the school.

kuzee:
doc wip7
pls my pman is asking if the accommodation is included in the tuition fee
as in am I to pay for accommodation by the time I get there?

..It stated on the offer letter that TUITION FEES...but not TUITION AND ACCOMMODATION FEES...meaning that what is stated on the admission letter is for 1 year university tuition excluding food, living expenses, lifestyle, shopping and accommodation.

After you arrive, you will have opportunity to view various accommodations (cost ranges: 1500-3500 usd/per year), then choose the one that suits your lifestyle and pocket, then pay before you move in. If you like, you may check the university website before arrival and also choose and prepay. So is flexible and there are plenty new dormitories within the university you can choose from.

benji93:
Thank you for your previous reply Dr WIP, I am the guy that gained admission into METU, Ankara Campus. I have another issue pertaining my sponsor, my sponsor is not a parent but my father's friend. How does the relationship between i and my sponsor determine the outcome of my visa application, bearing in mind that he is ready to provide all documents necessary to prove that he will take up the responsibility of all expenses. Another thing is that he has never written any guarantor's letter before now, i have an idea of what the guarantor's letter looks like, but as a more experienced compatriot, i want you to advice me on how you think he should write the letter favourably, maybe you can provide a template in this regard, i will very much appreciate it.Thank you in advance

For Turkish embassy, the relationship does not really count unlike Cyprus embassy/consulate that you either must be the sponsor or your parents.

Meanwhile your dad's friends should state the extent he will sponsor you, in what capacity and possibly why he will be the one taking the role of your parents (tips; he may talk about your academic goals, educational prowess and need to augment your parents financial status). If he has sponsored you before on any project, he may include or reference that.

Not boring and long epistle, point-based may be good and not very very big English but simple and direct (dont let him show his Queens English too much...so the man wont be scared).

He should state your chosen program and duration, what kind of sponsorship he will provide (full or partial) and possibly his source of income (Chairman OANDO or Primary school teacher or whatever he is)...just in 1-2 lines will be nice.

If he owns company on the letterhead will be perfect or he may borrow letterhead from where he works to support his claims.

These are the points in my template for you.
Wish u Success!!

gadafi101:
Mrwip

Can u pls clearly list out the complete documents u r asking of? Can I also have u email or a social media id so we communicate in private?

Thanks.

My email is located within this forum/in my signature. I dont have social media IDs.

The admission is in stages:
1. You will need copies of your university transcript, bachelor cert, international passport page for admission.
2. You will need attested copies of above-mentioned documents including attested bank letter of sponsor/you, attested medical documents, non-refundable application/visa fees around 150euro to the university bank account.
3. Pay tuition fees and apply for visa, the university handles that.

Have you checked the tuition fees of the program? are you financially ready for that? on arrival you must also have cash of 2000 euros to be allowed into South Cyprus.

If ready send me the documents, read more on the University website as well...

elijaxin:
Mr wip you skipped my question can I have your mail...

elijaxin:
Hello Mr wip I wanna apply to EMU for Information Technology sir but in my WAEC my physics grade is very low while other are credit, provided this result is physics relevant to the course of study if I apply will I be granted admission.

Send me your olevel result, international passport page and photo passport.

The course Physics is required for your admission and provided you have 5 credits excluding religion/languages, you will be admitted. However, if you are in Infotech at EMU, you wont be taking physics courses so it may be overlook..


You can find my email in this forum/in my signature.

penroll55:
You ask me lot of questions which I humbly respond to. Am not competing with wip because he is my boss and also help me when I was about traveling also.i know wip and I know all the questions u ask me which I humbly reply to despite being busy except the last question which piss me of,wip won't answer them.
I ask u about who did the admission because I believe all those questions are what u should v ask before even sending your documents and when u told me your friend,I was surprise because he will be in better position to give u detail and truthful response.
I don't ask anyone to pm me,who wan to is free as I respond to the best of my understanding and also for you info I am not hiding my identity,lots of nairlanders know me peronally and still even ask me questions in person so I see no reason y u sayin my name like I am hiding or frauding anyone here.
All those question u ask me I believed u have ask wip and he didn't reply them that's y u asked me because I know wip won't answer them.i guess I shoul have ignored the last question like I didn't see it.
Anyhow am not fighting with u or competing but I post that to know if its logical to ask that particular question.responding to questions is free not like am being paid or wip is,so see no reason for u saying all question should go to wip,and besides some questions am asked I don't know I still ask wip for answer to it.
Good luck man,as mr wip said na God win,not u or I.

Boss is okay...summer don reach..go beach!...You should know, new students most are just nervous, some their sponsors are scared as well, some have read a lot of fairy tales and want to confirm from lord of the rings himself and some really want to know everything including why God created Eve and not Kardashian.......and many are like your sisters and brothers...!

Dont be upset...biko!
Enjoy!

wizrackz:
I asked him some other questions and he said"don't ask me, go and ask the person who did the admission for you, why don't you ask him all these questions"
I just shook my head in total dismay, I later checked my mail and discovered that MR WIP had replied my mail with veritable information, giving me clear details.
I hereby implore all nairalanders on this thread seeking admission to EMU to forward their complaints and questions to MR WIP, he will surely reply your mails, please don't channel your mails to PENROLL, he has lost every iota of decorum and decency, I looked up his profile and his name is IZUCHUKWU, my name sake too,Ibos don't behave like this, turn a new leaf and take a cue from MR WIP, he is a top gun at the international office of EMU but he is humble, thanks.

Dont get angry sir and don't dwell on what went wrong. Perhaps, focus on what to do next. Spend your energies on moving forward toward finding the answer. Godwins and you shall win also!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

gadafi101:
What documents would u need and what's ur email address?

Copies of your certificates, transcript and international passport. Kindly note UNI-Nicosia charges application fees you will be requested to pay into their bank account after you are admitted. Also, after your certification of admission is sent you will need attest all these documents at the ministries for visa purpose.

Itstyme:
With the information I have, South Cyprus deadline for all documents attestation required for visa application submission is July 10th. Any document attested after that date will not be accepted so I urge him if he really wants to do UNIC, he should on or before July 10th.

He can apply until 31 July! which is an approximate deadline and may be slightly extended as they do yearly but to be on safe side...as early as you wish!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Goodday sir please i would like to know the cost of renting a room monthly in ayia napa and cost of water and light monthly Thank you@Wip7

Hello Mr wip I'm currently a student of niit(national Institute of information technology) studying software engineering and I'm done with a year which I got a advanced diploma degree in IT can I apply for a transfer for EMU with it are they going to accept it with my transcript if I'm Applying for Information Technology at EMU will I be exempted for the year taken in Nigeria. . Actually my school are affiliated with UK University and their fees is very expensive if I were to transfer there to finish my course. That why I'm going for something I can afford

Hey,

Yeah you can transfer to EMU. The university have signed agreement with APTECH and credit transfer APTECH graduate with ADS to 2.5 years and they spend only 3 semesters to get their degree at EMU.

However, EMU has not signed agreement with NIIT, so the system of NIIT evaluation will be new to them and can only exempt some courses that are related to EMU provided you have good grades in these courses.

You cannot determine the level you will transferred to unless the evaluation units of EMU check the courses and match it with EMU courses. If you are ready let me know.

gadafi101:
Mr wip7.

First of all, let me commend your good work on this forum.

I'm a recent graduate from Valley view University Accra Ghana with a 2.2 in Information technology.

I wanna apply for a Masters program in Oil/Petroleum engineering (coursework /non-thesis).

Iv already considered University of Nicosia, but in your own experience, which University will be ideal for the course I wanna study and affordable?

I have all my documents ready except my certificate which should be out by August.

So how best can you advice me and how do we proceed?

Thanks.

Yeah Nicosia University (south Cyprus) is okay but expensive..no other university in the north Cyprus that offers that at graduate level.
If you are ready, then send me the complete documents..End of August may seems to far since South Cyprus process has dateline!
