cconcept:

thanks doctor

Americanvisa: @dr julaiana,apart from what is listed in the application for student visa checklist,is there any other documents you added or that you can advice us to add to make it a successful application

Americanvisa: please can you give me a hint,i sent you message now on your nairaland email,thank you

Dr. Juliana:


i don't know where my email is here, am new with this naira land thing, i can see i have a PM, nibo lo wa oooo?

Dr. Juliana:


any time

Americanvisa:

just check the email you used to open nairaland,you will see the message

ferdimako:

I believe u did IETLS.Do these people use English language more than us? Hey did you pay the 20K at once b4 COE was sent and any application fee? Am looking at their Master of Information Technology.

Dr. Juliana:


No i didn't do IELTS, i always talk my way out of it, it is a waste of time in my opinion, but necessary though and yes they use english lol, it is an english speaking country. i paid approximately $12,000 before the COE was issued, no application fees either. what campus will the Master of IT be in? am in Mt. Helen and it is huge.
good luck with the application

hope this helps

Dr. Juliana:


I just did, nothing in it, it just said you wanted to send me an email/connect to me

ferdimako:

He has started to go private...now he is benefiting from my own public activity.Dr Juliana, pls let's keep events open and public.

Americanvisa:

so you want me to upload my statement of purpose here abi

jennykadry:

Yes I support Ferdimako. If it has to do with Australian visa, state it here.

@drjulian

I have been asked to contact people offline and I refused. Whatever they have to say should be posted here, cos everyone is here to learn. I don't support offline contacts re Aussie visa. Nothing is shady here, let people state their purpose on this thread

jennykadry: Are you planning on staying long term ?its a beautiful country -Australia I mean.

Thanks for helping others out. I have been so busy off late. We need more of you here.

Hello Jenny, am sorry for the late reply, I have been out all afternoon doing students stuff, ID cards, course registration etc. yes i plan to stay long term. and am glad to help.. you have done a great job so far

Americanvisa:

But IELTS is needed for visa application,so how do you cross it.

like i said, i could be very persuasive and make a case for myself, or maybe i was just lucky... twice

I understand your point of views, but there are some things that are actually personal and not easy to discuss openly, although it seem unfair, we should probably just put it out here, but i think writing a statement of purpose is a bit personal, and some people might just copy and paste what is written here without having anything to do with their own situation and giving the case officer a look. Let's try to put it here, but statement of purpose, I am willing to help edit privately for anyone interested.

ferdimako:

Yeah Mt Helen as well..I've started the online application.I have an unofficial Transcript because the original won't be in until October or November, so could I just notarize that with other documents.That my B.Sc Transcript will be the only unofficial and not original document or should I scramble for anything from my school and wait I do that?I will do the IETLS, so always not to have any road bumps with the Embassy.I will register in May against late August test date in Abuja.Am looking at Feb 2014 start date.Thanks so much with those responses.

Dr. Juliana:


I like your 'not fire brigade' approach, you are planing and this is good and i am sure it will be a hitch free application. I think you should get your transcripts notorised from your department, they can also write a letter that you have completed your studies and say attached is the unofficial transcripts, your HOD can write if you are cool with him/her. make sure you notorise all documents, the school will only ask you to send a scanned copy, no need to mail anything to them.

Go ahead with the IELTS, i didn't do it, so i have no advice on how to prepare for it.

Good luck

Americanvisa:

I am not going offline with him/her,if you read our former conversation,i only demanded him/her to look into my statement of purpose and edit it for me,that is all.I supported non offline 2

jennykadry:

Yes I support Ferdimako. If it has to do with Australian visa, state it here.

ferdimako:

cool yay for UB applicants

good luck

manmeta: Dear all,

It's quite impressive how individuals are helping with sorting out issues for prospective students going to Australia.

Some of us would like to help others who are considering/applying for the skilled migration programme. It'd be a jumble-mumble maze applying for the migration programme but it's easy and some of us who have been successful would like to help prospective migrants. However, it seems the crux here has to do with student visa applications only.

Maybe Justwise could look into this.

Just willing to lend a helping hand in our diminutive capacity.


My 2 cents.
