EMOTION is changing up things for the 2.0. I do believe that you should still apply. If you have a strong motivation letter, good recommendations and academics/ work experience, I believe you still stand a good chance.
Please, about the transcript for some Nigerian Universities, they only send the School's copy to the offiial email of an institution but they do give out student's copy to students. So can the Student's Copy of the Transcript be used to apply??
This depends on the program. Usually, most of them accept student’s copy during applications, yes. When you get the scholarship, then they need an official transcript to process your admission.
I’d highly recommend making sure not to have any fraudulent/ wrong information because that can get one in big trouble- even with the Embassy that provides you with a visa (if you need one.)
Hi, regarding with the proof of residency I had the same problem so I wrote an e-mail to the program and they told me to do the same as you (letter from my father with the utility bill and public notary), now my question here is if I have to do the translation of the utility bill and notarized document or the letter in english explaining my residence is enogh
Thank you so much. Your video has been enlightening and helpful. But I have a question please, I’m stuck in the English proficiency stage…I’m Nigerian but I don’t see any exceptions for Nigerians (as you’ve said) on the site. Plus, there’s this ‘mobility track’ section that I’m not entirely sure of what I’m filling. Please I need your help with more clarity😩🙏🏾
Hello! Thank you for watching. A few programs still require a proficiency test but a majority actually exclude us. Please read the information in the website. It would be stated clearly. To get more personal information, I suggest looking for students/ ex-students of the program on LinkedIn and ask them for information about the mobility track because it’s about selecting your area of specialty/ country to do your program in.
Thank you so much for the precise information and captivating presentation. We're waiting for the video on motivational letter. And, one quick question: can you start the application if you don't have your passport at hand at the time of application, but you can provide it later?
You’re welcome! Thank you for watching. Many of them require an International Passport to apply but personally, I think you can still try and be transparent about your passport situation.
Hello desire, I would ask about recommendation.. can I only have two recommendation from work I mean from director or ceo ? If I don’t have a recommendation from my previews university…
This depends on your program. Some are specific about the recommendation letters while some give you freedom to choose who writes it. You can confirm this from the website of your program(s) of choice.
Thank you so much. I’m currently in my last semester for my undergraduate degree. I’m a bit confused as to the academic related documents I will need to provide seeing that I do not have the degree yet. But I will be done in December/January. Can you help with that because I saw that undergrads in their final year can apply.
You should check the website of your program to confirm this specific detail. It is definitely answered there as well. For example, with my program, you can apply for the scholarship with your final transcript but when you get the scholarship and need to start the registration process, you must submit your degree certificate.

Thank you so much! To upload it, to the best of my knowledge, you don’t need to. However, I advise that you still confirm on the website. But when you get the scholarship, depending on the country, you may need to legalize your documents with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs
@@DesireUba thank you very much, please one more thing, what font did you use in your SOP please. Because my program requires just a single page which could not allow me put so much things.
If they asked for one page, the only way to go is to give them one page. I don't remember the font I used and it's not crucial. You can try shifting the margin and spacing as well.@@ezekielgnwibo3022
So I used to live around Gbagada, the closest local government to me was the bariga local government, I requested for resident permit and I paid a fee, I think I got it the same day or I went back the following day. This was like 8 years ago tho, I don’t know if the process has changed.
Hello! Your motivation letter should fit into what the program also requires so you can definitely talk about your first MSc as long as you can talk about how it fits into your story for the motivation letter.
Ideally, you have to wait till next year. You can also send an email to your prefers program to know if they are willing to waive this option for you this year. You’re welcome!
I’ve heard that some people have been able to bring family after some time, yes, but I don’t know the procedure. You can do a bit more research on this.
You've been very supportive whenever people reach out. That side of you is gold - hold it high!❤
I’m so happy to know you feel this way. ☺️
Thank you so much for all the beautiful explanations,
We are still waiting for the motivation letter video.
I’ll definitely get on it this week. Thank you for the reminder ❤️
Thank you for sharing Desire!. You're glowing!!
Thank you for this. Please can you do a video on writing a motivation letter. Specifically for the EMOTION PROGRAM
Also, I have a background in Microbiology which is not among the courses listed on the website, would you advise me to apply for the EMOTION PROGRAM?
EMOTION is changing up things for the 2.0. I do believe that you should still apply. If you have a strong motivation letter, good recommendations and academics/ work experience, I believe you still stand a good chance.
I will be sure to make a video before the end of this month. Do look out for it. All the best!
Thank you
Hello Desire,
Thank you so much.
Thank you so much for watching ☺️
Thank you! Please what receiving address is used in the recommendation letters since it’s a consortium
You can check the website of your preferred program(s) It is usually stated on the information pages.
Please, about the transcript for some Nigerian Universities, they only send the School's copy to the offiial email of an institution but they do give out student's copy to students. So can the Student's Copy of the Transcript be used to apply??
This depends on the program. Usually, most of them accept student’s copy during applications, yes.
When you get the scholarship, then they need an official transcript to process your admission.
Do they carryout and academic background check from your former university for all applicants?
I’d highly recommend making sure not to have any fraudulent/ wrong information because that can get one in big trouble- even with the Embassy that provides you with a visa (if you need one.)
Regarding the recommendation letter for the EMOTION program, should I send it directly or just send them my professor’s contact info?
You’d send it directly with your application. That’s how EMOTION does theirs.

Hello desire, please how should a recommendation letter look like for this scholarship?
Hello desire, I would ask about recommendation.. can I only have two recommendation from work I mean from director or ceo ? If I don’t have a recommendation from my previews university…
This depends on your program. Some are specific about the recommendation letters while some give you freedom to choose who writes it. You can confirm this from the website of your program(s) of choice.
Hi desire, pls must your recommendation letter come from your professors at school?
Thank you so much. I’m currently in my last semester for my undergraduate degree. I’m a bit confused as to the academic related documents I will need to provide seeing that I do not have the degree yet. But I will be done in December/January. Can you help with that because I saw that undergrads in their final year can apply.
I have the same question honestly🥲
Same here

Hello, what does thay want when required transcript in GPA, we don't have this system
I don’t understand this question.
Firet, I love your command of English my beautiful sis.
Do I need to certify my transcripts at a customary court before uploading?
Thank you so much! To upload it, to the best of my knowledge, you don’t need to. However, I advise that you still confirm on the website.
But when you get the scholarship, depending on the country, you may need to legalize your documents with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs

Can I use my tenancy agreement for the proof of residency?
If you are from Lagos, you can get Lagos residency permit.
Never heard about this. Thank you for sharing! Could you share the process?
So I used to live around Gbagada, the closest local government to me was the bariga local government, I requested for resident permit and I paid a fee, I think I got it the same day or I went back the following day. This was like 8 years ago tho, I don’t know if the process has changed.
If I do not me tion that I am in the top 2%/5%/10% of my class ,do I need to submit the Official ranking letter , dear?
If your program requires a ranking letter, then you should provide one. If not, it’s not necessary.
Please What's the required GPA to apply
Would the transcript be send directly to them, Unilag doesn't give individuals their transcript?
In my experience, the student sends it to them, not the school. However, you’d have to confirm from your individual program.
ok thanks desire dear @@DesireUba
Also, I was able to get my transcript. It’s not easy but it can be done
Hello, can I share my experience in MSc in motivation letter because I had MSc diploma and can I add recommendation letter from MSc supervisor
Hello! Your motivation letter should fit into what the program also requires so you can definitely talk about your first MSc as long as you can talk about how it fits into your story for the motivation letter.
Thank you for the information…pls we that are in our last semester finishing by april 2024 can we still apply or we have to wait till next year.
Ideally, you have to wait till next year. You can also send an email to your prefers program to know if they are willing to waive this option for you this year. You’re welcome!
@@DesireUba thank you i think the ideal decision is to wait and have all papers and apply
pls can i use court affidavits for attestation of residency???
Yes, that was what I used in addition to a utility bill.
Is it a most to apply for three programs? I honestly just want to apply for one
A must? No, Its not. I never said it was. I only applied for one.
@@DesireUba Alright, thank you so much 🙏
what if your boss wont vouch for you? some bosses can be mean
This is true. You may have to find another way around it like using 2 professors/ lecturers from school or a previous boss.
Pls, can someone travel with family?
I’ve heard that some people have been able to bring family after some time, yes, but I don’t know the procedure. You can do a bit more research on this.
❤❤
