A maximum of 150 nomination rights will be issued per year, it is open to all but during the 1st month priority will be given to overseas applicants or residents with foreign passport. All NR applicants are processed in date received.

CIS changes their admission process this year. The application fee is now 2000 where you may not be granted for an interview. If you are granted, then another 2000 which is the assessment fee has to be paid. but still, that doesn;t mean you will be offered a place. Seems like more and more ppl s want to get in IS.'
