I got my eVAL downloaded last week, I have been in Abuja since Monday completing documentations both at Ministry of education and Foreign affairs, now I have all my documents authenticated and my letter of legibility. I’m ready to go to VFS office now, what do I expect, how do I go about the application for my SEV. View

    Just your highest certificate. Did mine last week. I did all but the embassy told me I just needed the highest qualification. Then get eligibility letter

      You mean I will just authenticate my masters degree and get my eligibility letter if I’m going for PhD, without submitting my O’level and Bachelor degree?

    Go to MMA and do your yellow fever card now, then make colour copy of all the pages including the back. Dats will cost you 7k here

    2 copies of your eval, one colour, one black and white, per page of print out here is 500, save yourself the cost. Do your admission letter same way.

    Got here already and figure there is a whole lot I could have done with more details, like booking your flight, and getting the yellow fever card and printing coloured copied of my international passport. Doing it before getting here would have saved me like 10k

    And if you need a SEV you will need to calculate another 10 working days after EVal is received. I just discovered that this morning. My lecture starts on 17 of February

      They only asked for VAL and strictly asked me not to enter the country without my VAL
      They didnt mention an SEV
      Maybe depends from which country you’re applying?

      So am i be to required to obtain an SEV after?

    • Profile picture of don Lamia
      don Lamia replied 5 years, 10 months ago

      SEV needs to be obtained from the nearest malaysian embassy or high comission, as soon as you download your eval. Getting the sev through embassy directly requires 3 to 4 days max… but some countries require you to get the sev through agents and that takes a little longer plus additional fees too. 🙂

        I don’t have an embassy in my country , and i was only instructed to obtain VAL so here goes my question after obtaining my VAL am i be to be required to get an SEV ?

    I was offered admission to UM in december, lecture starts on 17th of February and I must complete my registration by 2nd of March or my admission will laps. I just received my EVAL and contacted embassy in Abuja for SEV, but I was told the process will take 8weeks. By then my admission would have lapsed. Anybody in Nigeria with advice. I am confused now.

      Hi Jimi,

      You can either:
      1. Ask your institution to issue you with a new offer with the correct passport details, or
      2. Submit a copy of the old passport as well when submitting your application documents. The old passport will be used to support the discrepancy in the passport details.

      Kindly note that the application might be put on hold…[Read more]
