An X user has narrated how his sister-in-law got two fully funded scholarships to a U.S. university after being unable to gain admission into the University of Lagos on two attempts.
According to @captainarinze, his sister-in-law scored 284 on her first JAMB, but couldn’t get into UNILAG to study medicine. The next year, she scored 320, but still got no admission into Unilag.
However, after scoring 1450 on an SAT exam, she got two fully funded scholarships and one partial scholarship to a U.S. university.
He wrote;
“My sister-in-law is an intelligent girl. She scored 284 on her first JAMB, but couldn’t get into Unilag to study medicine. The next year, she scored 320, but still no admission into Unilag (I can’t explain it). I couldn’t just sit back and watch her talent go to waste. So, I got her to take the SAT exam. She prepped for only two weeks and scored 1450. We started applying for scholarships in the US, and she got two fully funded scholarships and one partial one. Last week, she went for her visa interview. In a few months, she’ll be heading to the United States.
1. I am still confused that she couldn’t get into Unilag. Something is definitely wrong with our system.
2. I am happy she is going to somewhere she can truly shine and explore her full potential.
3. It’s a shame we keep losing our brightest minds.
4. To be successful, you need opportunity, information and access.”
