The Big Bang theory about scholarships
A lot of
peeps always come online or rather showcase their sites as providing infos on
scholarship this or that (No doubt, am one of them), yeah the internet is a good source for easy
intels on stuffs like this but the truth is “now that you have seen it, then
what.”
Here is
where I come into place. Once a student, all my URGE right from secondary
school days was to secure a scholarship (which I call PASSIVE TUITION LEVERAGE)
because I visit presentations and mini-conferences where my mates were offered
scholarship monetarily or study leave and it always hurts me when I miss out.
This
lingered on till university days, I began to loose interest and preach against
it. That fateful day came and Nigerian Institute for Information & Tech (NIIT) advertised online. NIIT, being
a newbie into scholarship awards, I ignored it because they weren’t among the
BIG NAMES like ADDAX, MOBIL, AGIP etc but a friend of mine was eager to apply.
This moved me to do same and after we both paid a token of N1,500 each (one
thousand, five hundred naira) to complete registration online, we’re both
SHORTLISTED.
I jumped in
awe and started prepping (although I don’t even know what to readup). We both
travelled to Portharcourt (Rivers State) for the TEST, guess what!!!!!
I passed the
TEST while my friend (whom if not for her, I wouldn’t have this CHANCE) didn’t
make it. I felt sorry for her but she told me not to worry that she’ll never
GIVE UP!
Guess what
again!!!! Three months later, we both applied for one of the BIG NAMES
mentioned above, I failed, she passed.
Guess what
again!!! Some classmates who felt we were wasting our pocket money CHASING
SHADOWS and having seen how upgraded we are (FINANCIALLY) started jostling us
to know how we did it. Time passed and many more gained scholarships both home
and abroad and instead of being selfish, we formed a TEAM, created this blog,
funded it and published it online to encourage many upcoming Nigerian STUDENTS
into applying for scholarship in the quest to at least GRAB ONE.
So far, so
good, we have from our advert both in PRINT and ONLINE assisted a total of 500
students nationwide (UNICAl, UNILAG, ATBU, COOU, NEKEDE, UNIUYO, UNN, LASU, LASPOTECH, DELSU, EKSU & many more)to benefit from HOME & ABROAD SCHOLARSHIPS.
THe BIG BANG! ! ! !
Firstly, STOP CRAVING FOR BIG NAMES on SCHOLARSHIP AWARDS only but EMBRACE the SMALL NAMES
Secondly? IT’S REAL, IGNORE PROGRESS KILLERS, AM A WITNESS
Scholarships
fall into two categories namely: PAID adverts & NON-PAID adverts. Paid
adverts are scholarships that require you pay certain amount for registration
and verification of your application while the later doesn’t but there’s a HUGE
difference between the two
PAID adverts
|
NON-PAID
adverts
|
Pays certain amount for registration and
verification, e.g COMPUTEST Inc, SURESUCCESS etc
|
doesn’t pay for registration and
verification, e.g ADDAX, MOBIL, AGIP etc
|
Shortlists every applicant
|
Doesn’t Shortlists every applicant (Selective)
|
Not restricted to special courses
|
Highly restricted to special courses
|
Test is written ONLINE, no travelling
|
Test is written at a designated location
|
Favours all accredited fields of study
|
Doesn’t Favour all accredited fields of
study
|
Applied online only
|
Applied online and manually
|
KABOOM! What
a distinction between both. I will definitely go for both holding more on the
paid advert (If you ask me) because am 100% sure I’d be shortlisted and write
the TEST as against the later that will either shortlist me or not.
Another
thing is their CRITERIA for shortlisting can be really stressful and annoying
(NON-PAID adverts) but note it is still a CHOICE.
Conclusively,
the aforelisted scholarships + MORE are proven ingenuity and is assured. Peeps
have fallen prey to FRAUDSTERS but YES, we all have to take RISKS.(Afterall, MMM chop ur money die even when we know the RISKS . . .)
NOTE: only these two (2) (COMPUTEST
& SURESUCCESS Inc.) are paid adverts I know of and will vouch for ANYTIME,
ANYDAY. So take advantage of it &
THANK ME LATER.
