This link shows all the schools in UAE: 4icu.org/ae/

Tag your friends to enjoy this meal🤣

I will explain the admission and scholarship process in two of the schools namely:
United Arab Emirates University (UAEU) and
Khalifa University (KU).

The same process applies to other schools.

Just use this method for other schools.

Today, we will discuss the admission and scholarship process in UAEU.

For the Admission process, follow these steps:
1. Check out the list of Graduate Programs (Msc and PhD) in this link:
uaeu.ac.ae/en/cgs/program… (Please make sure you are using Google Chrome so as to automatically translate to English as shown below:)
2. If your course is there, then click the 'Admission Requirements' as shown in the image above.

Check for your Msc or Ph.D. course to be sure if you have them.

For example, the requirement for Msc Program is shown below:
There are about 3 requirements for full admission and other conditions for partial admission.

Please read this place well.

Basically, you need:

a. A cumulative Grade Point Average (GPA) of 3.0 on a 4.0 scale or equivalent, in all undergraduate work.
b. A Bachelor’s degree or it's equivalent from an accredited university recognized by the UAE Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research.

c. A score of at least 6.0 on the IELTS Academic exam or equivalent (i.e TOEFL), for all disciplines, delivered in English.
3. Check the admission cycle using this link:

From this link, note these two areas shown:

The first area shows that:

If you want to resume in September next year for Msc, Admission opens on 1st December 2020 and closes on 31st Jan 2021.

According to this person:

'After 51 mails, 25 rejections, and 2 hopeful response, I finally got my 1st yes! This message is to encourage and inspire someone out there who is still waiting for a yes because I was on this boat and I can tell you it was not easy rocking it'.
When we say that this journey is not for the weak. I hope you understand better?

One Yes is enough to make you forget many struggles.

Keep applying. Keep sending those emails.

You will get it soon.

Another big win for @AdeleyeSamuelA and I, and Glory to God.
By the way, when you are told to apply and keep in touch, I'm sure you know what it means😀.

Content of a good SOP (Episode 1)

On this SOP matter, we will keep writing tips until many of you get it so that the stress will be reduced.

In this series, I will be explaining in details the content of a good SOP.
1. It should tell us your inclinations i.e the things that appeal to you naturally or as a result of some problems you want to solve in your environment.

Why did you study your undergraduate course? Is it as a result of the things you observed were not right and you want to
correct? Are there emerging technologies in your field that you feel like exploring?

Truth is that many of us do not have compelling reasons to study our courses because of our environment. Many were 'given' the course because of issues beyond their capacity.
