Graviton2: Guys,

If a student who has acquired an F1 visa isn't able to meet up with paying a remainder of her college costs and her school threatens to cancel her i-20 and report her to immigration.

- Will these bear a negative mark on her record?

- Also will this in any way hinder her plans of getting another admission and most probably a full scholarship from another university?

- Will she face a problem at the point of entry with her other admission?

I have tried to answer her question as well as I possibly can, but I need more inputs on these.

Hey, I know we don't know each other but was torn when I read your post. I come on here as guest but had to create an account just to get through to you. I see how you help people on here with advise so why not render advise to someone too. However if you've sort yourself out already then that's good.

Wow! I was having a similar problem so it probably wasn't best served for me to give advice on the issue, that's why I decided to bring it on here — thank God, the issue has since been resolved and the advice given on the matter has been duly taken.

Thank you so much. God bless you.

Idazbawz: nearer dates will only appear after she cancel her previous appointment....
She needs to cancel it


Nearer dates don't appear WHEN YOU CANCEL,
Next available dates APPEAR only when you click CANCEL and the first CANCEL you click doesn't cancel your appointment automatically, You still need to CONFIRM the CANCELLATION... BUT on the page where you CONFIRM the CANCELLATION is the same page where you see the next available date.. and if you're not OK with the next available date.. You could return without cancelling.

You're welcome. And don't beat yourself down. Things happen for some reasons.

And try to get reviews from international student in your prospective school. Ask the admissions office all the time when you're not clear.

P.S: Everyone interested in coming to the states, take a look at Kutztown University in Pennsylvania. I believe they are quite generous to international student. I don't even go there but I just want to give back info. I remember someone random referring me to this forum when I got disappointed at Abuja Embassy some year ago. God bless that guy forever, too bad I never thanked him.

You're welcome. I think visiting www.kutztown.edu and go on the financial aid section will help. And they do not just provide aid unless you have a very good outstanding academic profile like GPA, results, and the likes.

I doubt that. $14,227.50 should be the tuition for a semester and not the total first year.

When you book online you will be given the booking ref. Just pay with your GTB card if you have your securecode. Its very easy.

pixietop: Good day, I am planning on attending Northwestern University this fall. I have a very rich immigration history and so also does my wife. We both currently have the B1/B2 visa. Our Visa interview(mine F1, hers F2) is for the 7th of August. My company intends on sponsoring me for the trip, I have a board resolution that says that and another covering letter that explains why. I have their six months bank statement, incorporation documents and a cheque for my complete tuition.
We have our I-20s(the two of us), Sevis proof of payment, accommodation deposit, admission letter and my statements that more than covers my wife's expense.

Please have I left anything out.

You're good to go BUT prayers, prayers, and prayers. Put it in his hands.

Bros calm down... it's not about printing the visas... Your info has to be uploaded on a database so it can be verified from anywhere in the world. Systems have to be up and running to be able to complete the process.

Exercise some patience!

Was just considering those that are still waiting for their visas..
Some already booked their tickets.. I just hope and pray the issue is resolved soon..

I have tried to answer her question as well as I possibly can, but I need more inputs on these.
you said shes still in Nigeria, how on earth does the school knows she cant foot the bills, did they ask her to pay before landing
- they cant report her to immigration, lailai, they just dey bobo the girl, well from the look of things it seems the emailed or told the school she cant get the whole tuition once she arrive

-it will bear a negative record if they report her because she cant even enter poe

- if the school report her and she didn't come for this semester then shes free but if shes sent back at the poe, then I doubt if she will get through again.

all in all, she has created a bad impression to the school and from your question, the school is not ready to take her and am sure they wont even transfer her sevis record to any other school. so shes left with the choice of looking for the complete tuiton, enroll at the school for this semester and maybe transfer in spring.

This is crazy.
Why would they decline?
because the school noticed she has another plan, that's why I keep telling people here that if they wanna transfer,they should inform both schools yet. land first and they wont have choice than to transfer you. she prolly told them her tuition aint complete and they felt shes bad market. anything you wanna tell your school, land first, even if you don't have all the money, they will give you a payment plan

She was not thinking of transferring, none of us did — The payment deadline couldn't be met and the school refused to defer our admission for no reason.

Anyway, a solution to the issue has been proffered, so it's all good now. Thank you so much.
