Any sevis number starting with ''N'' can't be paid for with a credit card. Just do money transfer, money order etc.

Can I ask friends in the US to help pay the sevis fee (is it acceptable to pay from US?) cos some guyz are telling me the acceptable way is paying from outside the US excluding Nigeria?

Not only Nigeria, there are some other countries that credit card is not allowed for sevis payment. Maybe yours is one of the cases.

Even if it is going to be paid in US or UK, so far the initial alphabet is restricted for credit card payment, it won't work.

thanks

@nethacker, abeg tell the House the battle! as if nor be sweat battle, atleast compared to the 7yrs (5yrs engr+2yrs nysc) we suffered studying CRAP in 9ja.
Abeg nor dey use match-stick fire scare people wey don see hell-fire before, yet excelled distinctively. lol
I hate it when u guys in obamaland try to subtlety discourage people aspiring to come to OBAMALAND- A LAND OF OPPORTUNITY INDEED IF YOU ARE FOCUSED AND HAVE YOUR FINANCES STRAIGHTENED OUT.

@myforumid,
I always love your perspective of view.Life is a battlefield still we pray to live long in it.

The issue is not whatever precedes the sevis number but the fact that all SEVIS issued to Nigeria can not be paid with any card irrespective of location.

Yeah, I know. I think the same thing goes to Ghana too.

in my opinion i would advise that people try and look for someone whos here in the US to help them pay sevis, its faster and easier that way, and dont wait till the last few days before you would say you wanna pay sevis. it takes a few days to process. so its better to start sevis payment process weeks before the interview,

If you started dis forum with me and femilangy(the creator of this thread), u will definitely hv come across my posts in the 100th+ pages. so u saying that we here try to discourage u from coming is untrue. I'm trying to prepare ur mind for d next hussle, If you think u hv seen hell in 9ja, u will understand wen u get here. What i'll try to point out here is dat dnt trash any advice by any1 who hv gotten their visas thru this forum and r here in US.We try as much as possible nt to insult any forum member come wat may. the likes of oyewolejos,djunit,khunleah,fagbon,femilangy,gongo aso,kenzema,nairaspace,ojaP and many more that landed here between 2009-2010, were prepared and saw the reality but were prepared.

USBound:

@Nethacker: what's the next battle?

when u get here u will figure it out.

hummmm, did i hear someone saying be "PREPARED" and another saying "DON'T SCARE US.", HAHA

If u think is a wake up call good for you and if you think you don't need the advice good for you also, but remember someone told you before you decide to enter the shoe, some of us have gone thru hell here, some people come home to coat the way things are up here to us back home and we all think it is bed of roses, LAILAI,
great minds have shared some of their bitter experience on this page and i still respect some, people have fought on this page and are friends and enemies till now, not joking. if you want names i will throw them for you, please, i wont try to make it look nice for you but give it to you straight, getting the visa na the easiest thing, Gba! but what next na the HELL, am not saying you shud'nt come,nope but please try make the necessary connection with families that will support you for a while,
just so you know, there is no FAMILY here Oooooo. na oyo land patapata, small help and next na cry, u go see wen, wen go ask u say wetin bring u come,

just adding to what the elders of this thread have said, When they say come prepped! They mean it the way it sounds. I dey talk am again with my mouth come prepared people!

I have seen people who came with nothing and they are still alive today but after a year or more here they are still struggling like they were struggling on the first day

If you come prepared it will make things easier for you. And in a short time you go dey used to the system. To think you have survived in Hell (Naija) and can survive here is a joke. Naija and here have nothing in common!

There are so many things I can get in Naija through family for free . Not here ooooooh! Nothing is free where I live! Rent dey increase every day! Wetin families take dey pay rent for a year in naija is what you pay here for a month! To make matters worse no jobs anywhere, If you manage see one job them fit tell you say na Citizen them dey look for!

I believe this would give you a little idea of what to expect.

Boys are frowning in YANKEEE oooooh

Be careful of what you say. The US has her own problems. It is just a matter of time before you realise that.

to be honest, its not like life is hell here. but if you are coming here with the intention of coming to hustle so you can pay ur school fees and live ur life, its gonna be a little tough, but Nigerians are very resourceful people and a lot of people make it here even without having rich parents to throw down millions of naira to sponsor them through school. its not as easy as people think it is but with God on your side, hardwork, focus and financial prudence, you will make it in America whether ur parents have money or not,
am just gradually trying to settle into the life in Fairfax
Thank God for everything

which side of MD u dey?

@ all,
If getting a degree in US is your motivation, i believe you will surely survive.
OYO to anyone going there to hustle o, especially now

@imperious, ALL sevis nos start with N, credit card especially if the address is Nigeria is not acceptable. If the person paying is in the US, he can pay by credit card, mail a check or pay via Western Union, they get it within 1 week. Credit card payment is not dependent on the alphabet. Again, ALL sevis nos start with N

@Others, can't we just stop this argument of Yankee is/is not tough. Don't you know what you are going in for? Before you go to the US, you should have an idea about what accommodation fees are. Which range between as low as 300 to as high as 1500 dollars/ room depending on where you stay and what amenities are provided. That is way more than what you will pay per room in most parts of Nigeria. If one person says US is tough does that stop you from pursing your dream? Don't they all say US is tough? have they died?
You should know or have heard there is no "my relative" abroad. If you are staying with a relative, they might expect you to share bills et al, when you leave for the US, go prepared. Be ready to spend a whole lot in the first few months especially as you will not yet know about getting the best deals. After a while, though things might not necessarily get easier. but you will get tougher.
If you are on an F1 Visa, you shouldn't expect to enter yanky and then it all becomes a bed of roses. Yeah you might get cheaper food, better amenities et al but there is still hardship. Face that reality and lets stop going back and forth about people discouraging others from going to the US.

this is wat i am trying to tell these guys but they feel we r discouraging them. now u hv said d same thing. thx

@ mysterys
I seconded jare
If you think US is too tough, please come back home

@Nethacker, Aroy1, djunit1 etc: You guys are acting funny. Number one, this thread was never set up to establish if Yankee is easy or tough but to get student visa in Nigeria, plain and simple. Number two, the reason why folks here will not listen to you is because you are still there. Why not COME BACK to Nigeria and then your advice will be more believable?

I have a friend who came back from London saying 'london is tough, london is tough'. Two years later, he is happily married with a kid and just moved to his own house (duplex) in Lagos. The only advice he gives to young people is 'you can make it here in Nigeria, FORGET TRAVEL'. Do you know why people listen to him? Because he CAME BACK here to Nigeria. Abeg, like imperioux said 'Life is a battle field but we still pray to live long in it'.

Right now, you guys have no RIGHT to post that advice until you are BACK here in Nigeria. Okay?

N.B: I have not said Yankee is easy. If you watch the News, you should know about the US Economic Recession, Debt Debacle etc.

Guys, whats the meaning of discouragement self? You mean someone that got his plan of traveling, applied to schs, got his/her I-20 and gotten his mind made up long before joining this forum can now be discouraged? Common! Let's stop all these. It's not easy out there without proper funding. CAVEAT!
