Hi doombridge, this is really informative. I'd like to know if the scholarship is for all successful applicants. If not, how much is the fee. Hope no conditions are attached to the scholarship

Thanks man.

hi gemstone, to the best I know, for the past two years, all students have been on full scholarships. This year, who knows, things might change a little, but be certain that all excellent students shall be given full scholarships. For detail info, contact by email [email protected]. Goodluck!

Thanks, my man! Can someone apply for master degree in Elect/Elect? Becos d course is not listed there but only computer science and engineering.

Hi 4five,
For now, as you can see, AUST offers only MSc/PhD in Computer Science and Engineering. Consider your present degree and make your choice wisely. Cheers!

Hi Clemzo,
Actually, the government of some Northern States have negotiated for some slots in this year's admission, also PTDF shall sponsor about 30 scholars, but so far, admissions have been fair and strictly based on merit. AUST is stricly for excellent students, and for this reason I will advise any average student not to apply. This might sound unfair, but to be forewarned is to be forearmed our elders say. Goodluck!

Hi Everyone,
Note that AUST is not a Nigerian University, it is owned by the Nelson Mandela Institute (NMI) whose Chair is based in Washington DC, USA, and as such NYSC Certificate is NOT needed for the application. Sharp Naija Corpers who could "do runs" about their primary assignments should apply. Also, excellent final year students graduating before June can apply.

Hi Everyone,
Remember, just 30 more days to the deadline for AUST 2010 Admission. NOTE: No Application Fee!
