Do you seek to secure a fully funded scholarship abroad with an HND from a polytechnic or a Second-Class Lower [2:2] or a Third-Class grade from the university?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Studying abroad via fully funded Masters<\/a> or PhD scholarships<\/a> have often been misconstrued to be available to only candidates with First Class and Second Upper grades. This post has been created to show you that your HND, 2:2 or third class grades can get you a fully funded scholarship in Canada<\/a>, United States<\/a>, United Kingdom<\/a> and the rest of Europe<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In order to prove to you that this is not a tongue-in-cheek story, take a look at the pictures below;\u00a0Now that you are convinced that it is not just possible, it has been done, below are proven ways to securing your lifelong fully funded scholarship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Obtain a WES Equivalent of Your Result<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Your HND result can be converted to its Bachelors equivalent by the World Educational System<\/a> (WES) credential evaluation services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WES<\/a>\u00a0helps academic institutions, professional licensing bodies and employers by evaluating degrees and diplomas earned abroad to determine their U.S. equivalencies. WES-evaluated results are accepted by universities all over the world. This is why universities request\u00a0\u201ca Bachelors degree or its equivalent.<\/a>\u201d\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>You must have seeen from the image of\u00a0Sheriff<\/a>\u00a0up there that his combined ND and HND degrees amounted to a whopping 3.93\/4.0.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So what about a 2:2 or a third-class graduate?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WES evaluates the courses relevant to your degree. A course-based evaluation would remove irrelevant courses you probably borrowed or the boring GNS\/GST\/GES courses, hence a rise in your CGPA probably to a Second-Class Upper grade!. Is that not interesting? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Take up Top-up, Postgraduate Diploma or Pre-Masters Degree<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

A Mop-up degree is usually a two-semester course that is designed by some universities to upgrade an HND degree to BSc. The programme, also provides a platform for Nigerian University graduates in a bid to remedy the results of those who were unable to standout academically during their first degree due to one challenge or the other.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
