USA University now allows Nigerians to apply for masters without IELTS or TOEFL – Here is more interesting update

Cornell University, New York, USA has waived IELTS and TOEFL for Nigerians seeking master admission into the school.
The university has now updated its English language requirement list for graduate students and included Nigeria as an English-speaking country.
In a statement sent to Legit.ng my Dr Olumuyiwa Igbalajobi, this is another victory for Nigerians seeking foreign education.
Nigeria is listed by the World Factbook as an English-speaking country and Cornell University referenced the website in its own website.
Previously the school insisted Nigerian students must also present an English test before admission into it’s graduate school.
