Re: NDDC Overseas Postgraduate Scholarship
Can some one kindly help with the real link. coz i can't find where to click to access the form on the nddc site
nddc.gov.ng
the site from the poster refers me to nddc.gov.ng. con some one help please .
-
Re: NDDC Overseas Postgraduate Scholarship
@williamstee I doubt if it's for sept session unless there is a specific indication of that.Sept session is barely 2wks away from now and the scholarship must undergo some process which i believe might take some time hence a month.I think January session is more feasible.

Re: NDDC Overseas Postgraduate Scholarship
@OFEIMU R U SURE U DNT NEED RECOMMENDATION LETTER B4 APPLYING COS IDNT WANT 2 START N HANG ON THE WAY.
@KENNAMAS IS THERE A PROVISION 4 UPLOADING D LETTER OF RECOMMENDATN SINCE U'VE DONE URS.DID U UPLOAD AT ONCE?
PLS REPLY

Re: NDDC Overseas Postgraduate Scholarship
i still don't know how to apply .i cant see the link. PLZZZZZZZZZZ help me out.
-
Re: NDDC Overseas Postgraduate Scholarship
there isn't any space to upload a recommendation letter.I think it's better to keep by the side.
For pple findin it difficult to register,it's pretty simple.
Click on the nddc link from the 1st page,it will take u to the website.Then click on new registration,a mail will be sent to your mail box.Follow the link from your mail box(always follow that link even when u loose your connection).Scan all your document in jpeg,jpg or gif format,compress to web page if you still encounter difficulties uploadin.
After the final stage of your registration,u will receive a reg number on a page u r supposed to print out.
Good Luck...

Re: NDDC Overseas Postgraduate Scholarship
GUYS, THERE SEEM TO BE A PROBLEM WITH THE SITE. I HAVE APPLIED BUT I CANT MAKE USE OF MY EMAIL AND REG NO TO LOGIN. THIS IS TO TEST FOR THE EFFICIENCY OF THE APPLICATION. AND AGAIN, I WAS DIRECTED TO NDDC ORIGINAL SITE TO APPLY.
PLEASE, HOUSE, IS THERE ANY ONE FACING THE SAME ISSUE WITH ME. THANKS
-
Re: NDDC Overseas Postgraduate Scholarship
I smell something fishy about this stuff. First, they make a publication with a wrong website and till date, have made no correction. Secondly, the website states that applications are open from 21st July till 30th August but the publication in the national daily came out on the 10th of August. Thirdly, why can't applicants access their data if they've started the registration process previously?
-
Re: NDDC Overseas Postgraduate Scholarship
Whether they like it or not, we will apply. It is disappointing that NDDC can be as disorganised as this. To those who are yet to apply, get all the documents you require first before you start the application process so you can complete it at once.

Re: NDDC Overseas Postgraduate Scholarship
I just registered now but I discovered that my passport was not uploaded.
In the final print out I had my local government letter instead of my pasport photograph there, I am confused right now.
Is there anyway this can be corrected without registering again?
