Sample Email To Know that MTN has Shortlisted You
Dear Applicant,
Thank you for your entry for the MTNF Science and Technology Scholarship Scheme.
Congratulations! We are pleased to inform you that your essay score met our benchmark and you have been shortlisted for the next phase of screening.
In order to facilitate the screening process, you will need to open a Diamond Yello Account (DYA) if you do not already have one.
To open a Diamond Y’ello Account:
- You need an active MTN line that is registered in your name.
- Dial *710# and follow the prompts
It is important that the account is opened in your own name (the name used to register your MTN line).
The next step is to provide the following details:
- Your Diamond Yello Account (DYA) number
- The phone number registered with it
The above information (and other details requested on the form) must be submitted by (submission deadline) a new date that shall be announced. Failure to submit by this date, implies that you are no longer interested in the Scholarship.
We look forward to hearing from you.
Regards,
The MTN Foundation

Will MTN still conduct CBT aptitude test? Yes, there will be Aptitute test at Lagos, Abuja and Owerri…
If MTN would conduct test, then another big question comes to mind, how do I prepare for MTN scholarship and where do I get MTN Scholarship past questions to study with? I know you would ask this so I have prepared a solution for you.
MTN generally sets questions from Mathematics, English And Current Affairs in her scholarship aptitude test. The three MTN Quicklinks below will answer all your questions as far as MTN Foundation scholarship aptitude test is concerned.
Quicklinks:
