ANOTHER SCHOLAR STATES HOW PROF IMAFIDON HELPED SECURE MULTIPLE OFFERS TO THE WORLD’S TOP INSTITUTIONS
PROMISE
By Professor Chris Imafidon – On social media (led by Linkedin.com) was set ablaze last week when a new Princeton University (USA) PhD student, Miss Promise Ekpo Osaine testified of how she got four PhD offers. She also received many more Masters degree offers after obtaining mentorship from Professor Chris Imafidon of England, Engineer Isaac Udotong (USA) and leading individuals.
22-year-old Miss Promise Osaine is a Computer Science graduate from the University of Benin who like most young Africa female graduates are keen to develop their research skills in advanced economies.
According to the latest update “she (Miss Promise) was able to acquire a fully-funded scholarship to pursue her PhD in Computer Science. She received three PhD offers from the University of Notre Dame, the University of Colorado, and Kent University, as well as three master’s offers from Western Illinois, Alabama and SLU”
Writing on her Linkedln page, Miss Promise writes “My story is a clear example of what is possible when we align ourselves to leverage mentors’ experiences.”
PROSPERITY
The total value of the scholarships awarded to Miss Osaine is over $206, 510.00 per year. Finally she accepted to study for her PhD in computer science at Princeton University, which is one of the best in the United States, and the world.
When Miss Osaine was a child, a lot of people referred to her as “OKON” for derogatory name and this name-calling led to low self-esteem. So she wants this to serve as an inspiration to everyone. As if to re-echo Professor Chris Imafidon’s strong conviction that “every child is a genius”, She wrote
“I am sharing this story to inspire every youth & girl-child out there. They can achieve anything they set their minds to regardless of their humble financial & educational background, skin color, nationality, age, or gender.”
PATHWAY TO PROMISE LAND
She continued “My Journey to obtaining these scholarships was rigorous as I sent 140 cold emails, received 11 rejections & worked my 8-5 Job(sleepless nights)
First, I met Wilfred of Zeed Worldwide, who educated me about US scholarships, Statement of purpose
In Aug, Isaac Udotong of Udotong Stem Academy(https://lnkd.in/ebrkUpwT) who is a member of Parent Alumni at Harvard, MIT, and Princeton, advised me to shoot for the top schools & covered 2 app fees. He linked me to Prof Imafidon of Excellence in Education for SOP review.
In Nov, I won the MT Scholarship by Dr. Michael Taiwo which covered my #IELTS, Transcript, & 2 application fees. My MT mentors, Akinbiyi, Oluseun & Oyakhi provided guidance. Oyakhi reviewed all my documents & encouraged my applications to the top schools. I reached out to Dr. Kelechukwu of DEKEMP, who reviewed my SOP & has supported me since then”.
In Jan 2021, I received my first scholarship & the rest followed. I became an OFP Scholar & was hosted by the US Consulate General. Lagos EducationUSA covered VISA & traveling expenses. Thanks to Mrs. Chinenye & Mrs. Adeola.
PRINCIPLES
Perhaps much more than a one off event, scholarship offers are guaranteed if anyone follows the principles outlined in the ExcellenceinEducation.org.uk’s #GeniusFormula. Mentorship is key for success at any level or field of human endeavour. Following a proven pathway leads to known destinations. However, superficial information contained in brochures or websites only gives very scanty information without practical insights. Its gives no insights, however experience trumps every acquired knowledge without demonstrable evidence.
