A young Nigerian lady has bagged two fully funded scholarships and a partial one after being rejected by the University of Lagos two times.
The news which was shared by a relative of the lady @CaptainArinze on the microblogging platform X came as a shock to many.
According to his post, his sister-in-law is an intelligent person, but her school of choice kept denying her admission.
After multiple trials, he suggested she try other Institutions Overseas, which granted her an admission once, including scholarships.
His post read;
“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.”
