You can ask the admission officer about that and collect the number the person will contact when he get to the school

Do you really want to go to grad school? I see no mention of a proposed course of study, or schools you are looking at.

One thing I will tell you is that loads of people going for undergrad do this themselves..I see no reason why you shouldn't be able to as a graduate-the process is not complicated. I never support the use of agents or anything like that;they can put false information on critical application documents which can land you a ban..of course after enjoying your money. My advice? continue reading through the thread. You'll get a hang of it.
Thanks for the reply.
I intend applying for masters in business administration (but I'm worried cause it has nothing to do with my field which is quality surveying ) I was forced to duty qs cause that was what university gave me , I'm worried it will affect my visa process cause of changing to business Administration

Plz I only have a few institution which I recently check using Google Search. Kindly help me with a list or website where I can start from or recommend some for me
Lastly should I go ahead with business administration or should I choose a course related to quantity surveying cause I don't want to make mistakes.

That's for your help once again.

Hi all,

I'm applying for F1 visa and when i try to fill the DS160 form, the Previous Work/education/training part of the form doesn't show the question on Educational details. I have once moved on to other sections(photo upload and review) on the ds160 form without filling the education details earlier today (as i was unaware of it) and it showed no error, but now when i started a new application and retrieved it numerous times, it still shows no such question on education.

There's only one question in that section and that is "Were you previously employed? YES OR NO". I also don't get the additional question on what clan/tribe i belong to?
I don't understand where I'm going wrong. I also saw a YouTube tutorial on filling out DS160 to find out my mistake but I do everything correctly and still that section on Educational details is not being displayed/

Please help. Any suggestion is highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Good day house,

Please can any one share number of someone @ Unilag diploma office? I applied for my transcript to be evaluated by WES. WES acknowledged receipt of my BSC and diploma transcript from Unilag. Then sent for verification. Now WES has requested further verification from the issuing institution, hence the evaluation is on hold. I called record office, but they said I need to contact diploma office.

I would prefer ones that requires ONLY TOEFL and not GRE.

don’t ever allow FedEx pick up your package directly..this might cause lose or delay in getting your I-20.. make use of eshipglobal only and your package will be delivered to Nigeria in 3-5 business days.. that was how I did mine cause I just got my I-20 last month.. bless

your I-20 will never be released to any of your family members.. it will only be given to you and you only.. don’t ever try to send your I-20 via FedEx or DHL directly because it might be delayed or get missing.. and the school is never responsible for the missing of any I-20.. then you can get another in the next semester after applying for another admission.. I strongly advice you to make use of eshipglobal.. your package will be delivered in 3-5days at maximum..blessings

It all depends ....There are lots of them with only TOEFL requirement, but you still need to take GRE for your scholarship. In fact, you really need it to increase your visa chances (not saying it's a guarantee though).

First, read all you can here (so you can get the idea without asking yamayam questions(so you don't look lazzii)).
Take up your phone and Google, google anything that comes to mind e.g. , the first educated monkey in the world, why Randa Rousey joined WWE.... Or why I love her... grin cheesy or Best universities in USA 2018....
Any way, see their ranking and requirements...
Read closely and carefully.....
See if you fit in somewhere...
Decide the coursessss you want.
Decide the state you like..
See the job opportunities..
Decide if you can afford the tuition or opt for scholarship.
Pay your application fee....
Then , come back...I believe we can take it from there.
OR just come back without paying the fee, we can still take it from there smiley

The first sentence up there is not entirely true. Schools release i20 to anybody be it friend, Gf, brother etc. There is no sense in spending alot on eshiglobal when you can spend less and get the same service

That is another option and the person can send it to you with less than $70, you should get it within 3-5 business days

Why those claims? Do you know someone who lost his/her I-20 via this means That you got you I-20 via eshipglobla doesn’t mean it’s the only safe and reliable means of getting an I-20 from your school here to Nigeria.....eshipglobal is actually the most expensive way to do this.
During my time, I had my I-20 sent to someone in my school and then paid DHL to pick it up from the guy. It arrived within 3-5days and I paid only about 22k for this process...
Some schools may not allow DHL to pick up I-20 directly from them, like my school.....so I had to authorize my school to first send it to someone in the school, and then arranged for DHL pick up.

The office of international admissions at Cleveland State University,said that they cannot release the I20 to DHL or FedEx directly unless the student make use of the eshipglobal from their website. Going through DHL or FedEx directly will not work because the school can never release the i20

That why it's always good to check the school policy

These days there isn't so much difference in price between eshipglobal and using FedEx directly . It used to be like double but now about $60 - $70 which is about the range price going direct so it not much difference in terms of price

Only difference one can pay in naira the other can't.

It used to be 62 dollars for FedEx and somewhere around 90-95 dollars for DHL and UPS. But now,FedEx from their website through eshipglobal is 96 dollars and UPS is now the cheapest at 92 dollars.
Infact currently there is no option for FedEx and DHL but only for UPS at 92. I think its on the high side,anything from 60-70 dollars should have been better,because paying from Nigeria to pick it up anywhere in the US through DHL offices in Lagos is 21,620 naira.

My GPA won't be sufficient for a MSC. I intend to go for Computer science again (bsc) preferably in the US for reasons which are absurd.

I get where you're coming from now but then again, you'll have to thoroughly convince the VO that you have great and genuine intentions for having to go back for the same program in The States.

All non-Americans going to study in The States are seen as potential immigrants so you'll have to do your best in convincing the VO. Blessings!
