FAQ

  • How does your company work?

    We work by scheduling a consultation first. After the consultation, you will receive our recommendations for the institutions we think best suit your unique requirements. We will also share the guidelines for applying and help you through each step of the application.

    For Test Prep, we will assess your needs and work with you to close any gap and learn test-taking strategies.

  • What do I need to apply to a university abroad?

    To apply to a university, you will need a transcript, an international passport with at least six months of validity, and proof of funds for studying abroad. Any relevant entrance exams for the destination will be communicated to you based on the destination.

  • Why do you have IELTS since I studied in English?

    Many universities require Nigerians to submit English proficiency scores. If you need to verify your English proficiency, you will need to provide information regarding your TOEFL or IELTS ACADEMIC scores.

  • When do we need to start applications?

    You should start the process for applying to universities 8 to 12 months before your desired academic program starts. Note that student visas can take anywhere from 3 to 6 months.

  • How much does it cost to apply?

    It's important to budget at least 50,000 Naira for universities in Nigeria, and up to 2000 dollars for overseas applications. Depending on the location you're applying to, universities may charge application fees ranging from 5000 Naira to 200 USD. KLS also charges a consultation fee and an application processing fee, which vary depending on the destination.

  • Are there scholarships available for international students?

    KLS assists students in obtaining tuition discounts and scholarships for all of our destinations. However, please note that eligibility for these scholarships is largely based on your academic record and is not guaranteed.

To qualify for this program, students must be able to pay 30-40% of the total cost of the school.

    Such scholarships are usually merit-based and highly competitive. KLS helps students submit high-quality applications for scholarships and has testimonials of many students who got scholarships.

  • Does KLS Offer Visa Processing?

    However, we do provide a list of reputable organisations for our clients with more complicated applications or for those who prefer to use a visa agent.
