How to get ready for the foreign University-Quick Tips
To secure your place at the institution of your choice, begin gathering information approximately one year before application deadline.

“It’s never too early to start looking at colleges”

Deadlines :o for applications vary for different institutions, most should be submitted no later than January. But you can always apply for the spring season.

Finish your GRE/TOEFL classes and exams at least 6 months before the application deadline. It will give you easy time to prepare a full quality application. If unfortunately your score is not good, you will always have time to retake the tests (GRE/TOEFL). You can easily waste a year if you miss the deadline, so better not to take chance.

Contact the faculty members in the universities, with your GRE/TOEFL score, explaining why you are interested in his/her lab and when you would like to join. Don’t write long winded emails as most people do not have time to read full emails. If they find your cover letter interesting then they will go for your CV. But don’t irritate people with unnecessary information in your CV. Take it easy, make it like students not like professors.

Don’t get over excited if they ask you to apply for university’s graduate program. It doesn’t mean that they are indirectly offering a position to you. Its a simple protocol for faculty members to transfer any student to admission office. In any case, your application will have go through the academic committee review. But, you should always mention about the reference email/phone conversations in your application cover letter.Northwestern University Admissions Photography

Arrange all documents in order: If sending printed application, then arrange your documents in line as described in application form. or If submitting online then convert all your documents in to PDF formats. Do not send messy word files.

List can be as follows:

Cover letter
CV
BSc. And MSc. Transcripts
GRE/TOEFL scores
Scholarship forms
Essays or SOP
Letters of recommendation*
Other requests by the employer


*Letter of recommendations should be sealed and signed by your referees if sending by post.

Always read your application carefully or ask someone to read and comment on it. Make sure your application is complete because sending incomplete application will be disastrous. Always make sure that your application is complete.

Use secured postal services where you can track your application and make sure your application is received by admission office.

Now you have applied. What to do now? Simply wait, but don’t stop here, because you never know what is going to happen with your application. Keep applying for new scholarships in your area of interest.

If you get selected for the interview: Well done, you have done a great job. Now time prepare for the interview.

If Not get selected for interview?


Don’t worry, it happens with every one, you are not alone. Don’t be disappointed, there are thousands of scholarships are announcing every year.

Check your application again and see what is wrong? Make it better and apply again.

Key is keep applying.

Ferdinand Foch said once “The will to conquer is the first condition of victory.”

Good Luck for your application. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

The process of changing your JAMB course or/and institution for 2015 has commenced.
This process is to enable candidates who already know their scores and have verified the cut off mark for their selected
courses in their choice institutions to make the necessary changes in their choice of course and institution relative to
their UTME scores. If you scored 180 in the UTME and you previously chose a popular and competitive university like UNILORIN, you can now edit it to choose a less competitive one to increase your chances of admission. Due to the sensitivity of the process Myschool Limited is offering this service. If you would like to request this service from us, do so now calling on 0092347061633532
We will contact you and verify/confirm the changes you will like to make and professionally effect those changes so they
reflect on JAMB's database. This will increase your chances
of securing admission.
The deadline for 2015 JAMB Change of Course and Institution has not been announced. However based on
experience it has never exceeded 2 weeks.
So if you wish to apply for it, do so by clicking here
Please note you can only change to a course relative to your
UTME Subject combination.
If you need further information about how this change of course and institution is done, contact us on 0092347061633532

I can say that studying abroad is very good. But this requires very good preparation. Liliana, you say that you prepare students for admission. What subject are you teaching? If you are interested in learning about convenient teaching methods, you can try this https://www.robotel.com/. This will impair the learning process for you and your students.

I think that studying abroad is a great idea! I think this is a good opportunity to get a good education. In fact, learning is difficult. It requires a lot of attention and effort. You have to study specialized subjects well. But it happens that there are subjects that are not needed in your profession. I think you should not spend your attention on these subjects. It's my opinion. I didn’t want such items to spoil my certificate. https://coolessay.net It is really useful site, where you can order an essay, and other useful things. It helps to save time.
