Oh, that's better. All that matters is getting it done and fast.

I've been good and busy....lols

Please what are the required document at the POE at the US airport. What are the likely questions.

osahons9:


2.7 on a 5.0 or 2.7 on a 4.0? Answer this before you proceed further.

its on a 5.0

meekpie:


I'm a bit curious about the bolded. How is having a return ticket a very fast way to get sent back? Can you be so kind as to elaborate further on that?

Huge lie. Don't bother yourself jare. I had a return ticket, and the officer at the POE didn't even bat an eyelid. My friend is in Naija right now and she came in with a return ticket, which she eventually flew back with. Nobody complained.

Most people buy return tickets because it's economical on the long run. Not for any other thing. One way or return, the POE officer doesn't send. Afterall, you're holding an F-1 visa, you can come and go as you want.

sirRiddy:
Oga impe, abeg I need your sound judgement here.
I plan on applying to Florida Intl Uni, masters computer sc. And I know you have history with the school. I think I read something about you having applied there or so.
Is there any first hand info I can get from you about the school? Anything would be appreciated, sir.

Yea, I applied to the school in 2011 and got rejected

jenns:

Not much questions. Why you're here in America? Where you're headed to? Which school you're headed to? And in my case the officer asked if I was really the age that was quoted on my passport and if I was truly coming for a graduate course. Lol

You'll need your passport and I-20 there.

JabinodelaRatta:
@bold...lolz, no oo boss. I just went into hibernation, preparing for the tasks ahead. Thanks boss!!

It's good to hear that your hibernation was not as a result of fear/cowardice but a strategic planning.

Cheers!

Pls mods in d house, do I av to register on Wes website b4 I can send my credentials? Pls help me expanciate more as am a novice on dis issue ooo. Tnx in anticipation

If you send your credentials without first registering AND paying them to get your REF number, it will be like throwing needle into haystack.

You know how finding the needle will be like..... don't you?

Thanks @ MsNas.... So I don't need to hold a photocopy of my servis fee baaah.

streetMic:
Alright. You need to find the guy I mentioned in the post. I guess you are in the US already?

jenns:
Thanks @ MsNas.... So I don't need to hold a photocopy of my servis fee baaah.

Nah nah.

jenns:
Thanks @ MsNas.... So I don't need to hold a photocopy of my servis fee baaah.

Nope. They have your SEVIS details on your visa

Lol...you have moved on since then now, bros. What is your view about the school? It is not even rated on usnews for computer science but the reviews are not that bad.
Since you have been through the application process before, you must know the school to a large extent. Pros and cons?

You mean waec result or your bachelors, if the school didn't specify WEs, look for another evaluation agency
If the school is asking you to evaluate waec result Abeg find another school, that's way to stressful but if it's for bachelors then you can go ahead with Wes. Go to Wes.org , apply and follow the instructions

And for this reason and for many others that have been asking about student's reviews of schools, this website http://www.studentsreview.com/ gives first hand info about schools directly from the present and ex-students.

Just type the name of the school in the red circle in the image and click on "go".

Always based your conclusion on the school's grade for "Education Quality" and read the comments.

Abi na.

That's understandable.

Birth certificate is the only credible document needed here as it was issued the day, month or year she was born.

zeezahbee:
True talk jake, early application saves stress. For fall applicants, try submit all needed document asap, this is the time your preferred school international office will have your time and you might prolly get scholarship or assistance.
Jake try and comport at the Poe and answer only questions you are asked and don't look too anxious. Hop u didn't book return ticket because that's also a very fast way to get sent back . Save trip and don't give anyone your passport oo

@bolded Not true
