How about doing it this way?
Get admission from one particular school, get visa with the school, defer your admission with that school and enter the US with your valid visa, apply to another school and once they accept the student you can request for transfer from the initial school..
Is this method legal and hope this method is also safe?

If you defer, your school must prepare another I-20 bearing the new resumption date. Arriving in the US before 30 days to that new resumption date is illegal and will definitely put you in trouble. The best bet is to defer and remain in Nigeria until you get the new updated I-20 from the old school as well as admission confirmation from the new school.

Bro, thanks for your input but I don't mean I am gonna arrive in the US 30days before resumption lemmi give a better example.
Just assuming I Applied to TSU for fall and they resume 25th aug and got my visa for TSU 2 week of July, got to the US first week of aug(which is normal) stay @ a friend's place.
Defer my admission with TSU just to buy time to apply to another school (HCC).
When TSU issue my new i-20 for spring 2015 without the knowledge that I am already in the US I can send my friend to go pick the i-20 for me and also help me in picking up the i-20 for HCC too.
Can I now go to TSU to request for transfer to HCC??
I hope you understand my question now?

I doubt if you can arrive US and defer admission. I guess your school will be alerted as soon as you are cleared at POE.

you will run outta status. sorry

please house after writing gre how many weeks will it take for the schools u choose to recieve the score??

@zeezahbee
pls can i pm you.need to discuss somefin.thanks.

zee so BTW troy n ur Houston uni..which is more cheaper .n highly ranked

n y did u break troys heart

MsNas:
No, University of Florida isn't Ivy League. Most of the Ivy League schools are concentrated in New England. But the University is a competitive school to get in based on the sheer volume of applications they receive yearly. Also you should take into account the location of the school and also its reputation. As per their admission processing, You should know that Mechanical Engineering is a competitive course. Most of the time, all the student in the masters program are always on tuition waiver (at least for the A-rated schools)

My room-mate is a Mechanical Engineering student and while me as an IT student have like 18 students in my class(90% Indians), they are just 3-4 in their class. Lol . And their admission requirements is also set higher than the baseline admission requirements set by the graduate college. My advise to you is that while you apply to The University of Florida, try and apply to some B-ranked schools too as a safety net in case its doesn't pan out with UofF.

Msc Mechanical Engineering and MEng Mechanical Engineering: I really don't think there's much of a difference, except for the fast that maybe with the Msc route, you don get to concentrate too much on the architecture of Mechanical Engineering but rather the science that is used for the application of the course. MEng, most likely is gonna be much more technical than the Msc, as you're almost assured of doing all the grime work associated with the course.

I know in Naija it means literally nothing though. I graduated with a B.Tech Pure and Applied Physics just because I went to a University of Technology and spent 5 years doing it. It doesn't mean I'm better than those people who spent 4 years doing the same course. I definitely know employers of labor don't care.

Good point. Also with MS u can proceed to do ur PhD, but not with M.Eng

ridimic1: zee so BTW troy n ur Houston uni..which is more cheaper .n highly ranked

both are like same. like i said, i got a good offer in houston plus houston is nigerian friendly. thats all

you can't enter the usa without your school knowing,from the moment you're issued a visa,the consulates notifies your school,you let your school know your arrival date.

The moment you enter the usa and report to your admin office,the school monitors your activities through your attendance in class work etc.
I have a friend who whose brother was deported from the United Kingdom,he was a student of uni.of Liverpool..He stopped attending classes,instead patronised the latest strip clubs in Liverpool..

That's why its called a student visa..

slimmy05: Not new naw, people do this often. You think say everybody wey dey shout my school fee is 27,999 o fit pay the fees all na same same Na that same CC them dey go

Really? M.Eng degree holders can't do PhD? Never knew. Do you know why please?

MsNas:

MEng is more professional and its usually course based. No intensive research. They don't do thesis.

Figures. So if they're not required to write a thesis of any kind, what do they do to earn their degree at the end of the day? Internship of some sort? or just the coursework they've taken over the course of their program is enough? My room-mate's Japanese friend just graduated in the same department as her. Although, i don't know if he wrote a thesis, I know he told me he's taking a kind of comprehensive exam that covers all the courses he took over the 4 semesters of this masters. Does that sound like M.Eng?

Phemix:

I can see you. Resend the PM you sent me. I no longer have access to that email.
