Good morning to the gurus in g house
@bigfrancis21, pls I need clarification on dis, I did diploma in psychology before gaining direct entry admission into 200level. my question is am about to send d transcript of my degree to WES for evaluation, will I also send my diploma transcript with it considering I later spent 6 semesters in my degree.

your quick response will be appreciated. thanks
Yes you will send your diploma transcript to be evaluated with other 3years(6semesters) transcript.. I guess the diploma was in Unilag right?. If yes, you can't get the diploma transcript at record office, you will get your separate diploma transcript at the foundation office, along FSS road, then send. BUT your other REAL transcript will be sent from d record office.

From an intellectual perspective, BIGFRANCIS possesses the spirit/trait of humility in all ramifications. And it's a principle that deserves to be revered.

Humble people know their self-worth. As a result, they don't feel the need to cast themselves before others just to show them how much they know. Instead, humble people realise that nobody cares how much they know until those people know how much they're cared for.

To crown it all, he's known for his ability to 'articulate' his thoughts and descriptions, even to a layman without any form of cynicism.

Keep it up!

I have learnt one or two things from this dude. His articulate is overwhelming. He doesn't try to pull people down with words as some people here do sometimes. Boss, you've summarized him. People should learn to be humble because no one knows it all.

you'll be charged based on your bank exchange rate, so expect nothing less than 223 exchange rate or higher.

you have a new I-20 with a new resumption date does that strike anything to you that you need to fill a new ds160 with the new resumption date? Once you're denied you need to fill a new ds160 form. How does that translate to you denying the fact that you've been denied earlier? When filling a new ds160 you'll be asked if you've been denied visa before

I laud your great effort in pulling out this post from long long ago! smiley

Congrats on your GRE score. It is great. You should get admission + assistantship with such a score.

A 3.83/5.00 CGPA will come out to be between 3.2 to 3.4 on the 4-point scale. I say this because my fellow colleague and course mate from UNN who had a 3.83/5 CGPA had a 3.3 GPA after conversion to the US 4-point scale.

You can quickly do a conversion using the grading scale I have provided and see what yours turns out to be. It should fall in the range I mentioned above.

What schools are you applying to? You have any in mind yet?

mine is 4.16... pls wats d conversion

You will need to send both transcripts to WES to make up for at least 4 years of undergraduate study, equivalent to a US 4-year bachelor's equivalent.

Hey bro, howdy?

I think AACRAO accepts transcripts by email. A friend of mine recently translated his own transcripts and I think it was through email he sent in his transcript.
