How can you assist because i was also at your programme at Sheraton recently. Besides,since i need to forward my transcripits for your evaluation and there are many schools to apply for where should i address the transcripts to
- TGM Education November 5, 2021 at 10:34 am Reply
  Hello Doris,
  The average tuition in the UK is around 12k Pounds. With your HND, you will need to do a top-up or a pre-masters program. Few schools used to give a direct master with HND in the past. As of today, it is barely feasible. Some Australian schools however have this option.
  Do call 0908 077 5662 or send an email to helpdesk@tgmeducation.com to commence your application.

What a brilliant agent. TGM appears in almost all uk uni as agent.
Can I study and work with pre master? What category do we put pre master: undergraduate or post graduate? What is the tuition like for pre master? Is there scholarship for pre master ?
- TGM Education January 20, 2022 at 10:05 am Reply
  Hello Olawuni, Pre-Masters programmes are designed to prepare students fully for studying at the postgraduate level, and the courses range in length from ten weeks to twelve months.
  You will need to start a Pre-Masters programme if your undergraduate degree does not meet the academic requirements of your chosen masters program, or you need to improve your use of academic/general English, or you need to improve your study, research and presentation skills.
  For more information, kindly send an inquiry email to helpdesk@tgmeducation.com, and we will take it up from there.

  Hello Oluwatoyin, Public health and a few other health related courses are not conversion based courses.

  Hello Mr Ayodele,
  We understand your desire to travel with your dependents to the UK. However, we regret to inform you that, effective January 2024, the new UK immigration rules stipulate that you will no longer be able to travel with your family unless you are enrolled in a research-based Master’s or a PhD program.
  In light of this development, we recommend considering alternative options such as studying in Australia or Canada. To explore these possibilities, we would need to assess your eligibility for programs in these countries.
  Please respond to the email sent by our helpdesk team as soon as possible so that we can start the process.
  We look forward to hearing from you!
