You can take min of 9 and max of 12 credit hour/semester. When on GA, they will hardly let you take more than the min.

Bros thanks a lot.

Oh sorry about your experience. I don't know your definition for a good city. To me, Manhattan, Brooklyn or 2/3 of the Bronx doesn't fit in a good city for living. I came from the southern US and can't withstand the filth and filthy look of Manhattan, Brooklyn and the Bronx. 1/3 of Queens is good but the majority of Queens is far from the city (NYC). I live in south Staten Island that look more like the south U.S. 1/3 of Staten Island is bad too but the south where I'm has clean roads and safe neighborhoods, being the fact that it's white dominated part.

So where are you in Staten Island?

Hi, I am in Wandel Avenue, Staten island.

Thanks for the words.

Oh, I see. I always pass through adjacent street (van duzer) almost every time I go to Richmond terrace.

Your best bet is to get your transcript evaluated by the recommended firms the school advises. You wanna evaluate yourself and send to them

Lol....

I can't do that..

But have got to email them to know that right?

For the benefit of those who want to know what their GPA is gonna be after WES evaluation, here is a GPA Calculator from WES that would give you the exact value: http://www.wes.org/calculator/igpa.asp

All you need do is enter your course units and scores correctly. Tested and trusted!

For unilag you pay 2,500 for 2 transcripts and 10k for each destination in the US. Btw I applied to 9 schools. 7 required official transcripts. And 1 school had me send official docs to them thrice.

Thats waste of cash... Evaluate your transcript using IERF (best-from my experience), WES, ECE etc You just pay their registration fee and sending of your (Evaluated report)transcripts will cost $20 each or less. You need to email or call the schools to find out which evaluation service they accept

I think u r confusing this guy. Many undergraduate schools send transcripts themselves and not by the student,so how do u expect him to send himself through nipost or dhl? D undergraduate school sends. Secondly not all schools accept anytn unofficial. Plz advice him well.

Mail the schools to know if they accept notarized copy of transcripts. What I mean by notarized is try and see hw u can get a copy of ur transcript,make coloured photocopies then take it to the high court for it to be legalized den post tru nipost or ems to reduce cost. Another option is out of the five schools,check the schools that accept evaluated transcript,then send ur transcript to d evaluation agency n dey wl evaluate and send to the schools. Else if u don't go with these options,be ready to spend 30000 times 5 which is 150k.

Good Afternoon house,
Please i want to ask how easy it is for getting GA in USA as an international student.
I want to ask about the probability of getting it?
What schools really grant students this opportunity.

Regards.
