Hello! Thanks so much for your videos. They are very detailed and informative. I combined my WAEC and GCE results to get the required 5 credits in English and Mathematics. My concerns and anxiety right now are; 1. Will the MOE and MFA authenticate my combined result, and how much will it cost for both if there is a possibility? 2. For the combined O level result, I already have my original WAEC but I don't have my GCE original yet. Will the MOE and MFA authenticate it? 3. Which required WAEC subjects are needed for the Nursing Degree Program in Poland? 4. Since I have an age declaration affidavit attached to my WAEC and GCE results, Will the Polish Embassy in Abuja charge me 90 Euros for these three documents

Very informative, thank you for this detailed info.

Please, for your transcript did you use the original hard copy or you printed out the soft copy Because my transcript is in soft copy (original copy), my school didn’t give me the hard copy. Can I use that? I will print it out in coloured

[@opeyemiomidiji]

I used the original copy. My school specifically asked for the original copy and what I did is request that it be sent to an office where I then went to pick it up.

[@Mr_LAB72]

Please, I want to study there but I need to do consular legalization of mu WAEC documents but I graduated from school,the only thing that has been issued is the WAEC result slip, Please will the Russian Embassy Consulate legalize that for me ??

[@JobMoses-t3w]

Hello Opeyemi. Since my WAEC original is not yet out, will the ministry of education in Abuja legalise my WAEC printout? If yes, Will I get an official copy from them to present at the Polish Embassy since they won't accept print out?

Thanks for this amazing and informative video. My question is...if my sponsor is not in Nigeria and he has to send the Sponsorship letter from abroad as Pdf through email.....do i need to notarize it? If i have to, where will i do the notarization, Nigeria or the country where the letter is coming from?

[@chizzychikwendu8161]

Please this authentication and legalisation for MOE and MOF, is it a must for anyone travelling out for study or your school should request for it

Your school should request for it. You don’t have to do it if your school did not ask for it

Thank you. This is what I needed to hear. I tried filling the form online but I couldn't get through, I don't know why. I will have to do that at the cyber cafe then. My questions is; will they allow me to go about the authentication even if the appointment date I got is far?

[@opeyemiomidiji]

It’s advisable to do the authentication at the ministries (Education and Foreign Affairs) close to the embassy appointment date you got.

[@opeyemiomidiji]

If your school does not require you to send, then you do not have to.

[@Theioladotun]

What about schools that doesn’t give students transcripts directly, how do one authenticate that

[@opeyemiomidiji]

There’s a way you can collect it. Request for it to be sent to an official address that you know and then you can pick it up there.

[@ejindunancy1329]

I have the soft copy of my Transcript through this way you mentioned but will it be a problem since I don't have the hard copy to go with on the appointment day. Will the printed coloured copy be okay as original copy while I also go along with 2 photocopies?​@@opeyemiomidiji

[@tarimotimiyabiteigha-hs8yk]

Hiii Can you just authenticate photocopies or you must notarize them first? I heard from somewhere that you have to notarize your documents photocopies before you take it to the ministry of education

[@opeyemiomidiji]

It is advisable to authenticate your original documents not photocopies. Before you can notarize any academic document, it has to go through ministry of education and then ministry of foreign affairs before finally going to the embassy.

[@tarimotimiyabiteigha-hs8yk]

@@opeyemiomidiji no I mean the photocopies you want to submit because you cannot submit your originals, it will never come back to you.

[@opeyemiomidiji]

@@tarimotimiyabiteigha-hs8yk authenticate and notarize your original documents and then make photocopies of them (after authentication and notarizing). You’ll have to submit the original documents as well as photocopies by the way. Once your visa decision is out, you’ll get back your original documents.

What if you're applying to different countries at the same time...if it is legalized in one country Will you have to take it to the other country's embassy??? Also is this process for after getting admission.

[@-Thejayjay]

That's why you authenticate first and wait for where you will get admission and then legalize it in that embassy where you got admission.

[@AkintolaKingsley]

What about the transcript, would my school registrar need to send an email to ministry of education.

Yes They need a confirmation from your school

Hello Good day I read through the requirements needed for Legalisation in the tlswebsite and I saw that the official transcript is needed for Authentication then legalisation. However, my university protocol says that they don't give out the official transcripts to students by hand but they send it to the foreign school that is in need of it and that I only have access to student copy. How do I go about this? Also, my school certificate is not ready yet but I have my statement of result. Can this suffice too?

[@opeyemiomidiji]

@@asiwadavid1248 Hello I’m this case, you can use an official institution (say your friend’s office or parent’s office) as the destination of your transcript and you’ll pick it up there. Just make sure to inform them

@@opeyemiomidiji What my school said is that they'll send it as a mail to the foreign school and this same transcript can't be handed down to me as an individual.
