shoggie: I do not reaaly know what is happening, house please help me out!

I booked my appointment since 24 November 2012 & I chose the only available date which was 26/12/2012 & was confirmed by an email sent to my inbox.
On another ocassion, I received another email stating that my appointment date is 27/12/2012.
Again on December 12 at 4;58 PM, I received a third email stating that my appointment has been rescheduled to January O4, 2013 upon embassy request and that I should log in back into my account to check the details for the new appointment confirmation sent to me.
Then I reported to fellow nairalanders & I was urged to contact them which I did through email & phone call though I could not get through phone . Hence I still considered 04 Jan. to be Ok for me. They did not reply my email until last week Tuesaday (exactly 4 businessday because of break).
Last Friday I received a call from embassy affirming that my appointment is this friday 04/12/2013.

Now, I logged in to my email & I saw another email from embassy stating that my appointment has been rescheduled to next weekend & that they are sorry for any inconveniencies they may have caused me.
House, Since November 24 this is what I have been living for & This is another story.
Please I invite all the GURUS in the House to help me out of this matter.
Honestly, I am DUMBFOUNDED, Speechless indeed a day to my year of Divine Favour
I do not really know what is happening.
The resumption date on my I-20 is no later than January 14, 2013. In short, I would not have finished the processing before the last day of resumption.

I should be obliged to your response.
Thanks.
All i can say is that you pray...cos i've never sen anyone experience such...no chase girl enter new year ooo, my own advice na to pray...don't worry you will be favored...happy new year

There is a new transcript ordering and delivery service in Nigeria called ETX-NG(etx-ng .com). It allows students to order transcripts from their universities in Nigeria and have such transcripts electronically delivered to any school worldwide. you might find it extremely easy because you wont have to bother traveling down to your school or sending a relative or friend considering the risk of traveling these days. You will also not have to worry about the successful and on-time delivery of the transcripts as the whole process is tracked and status updates are provided to you. ETX-NG stands for Electronic Transcripts Exchange in Nigeria.

You are damn right. I checked the price of ordering from my school to a school in the same town and it was 16000. Transcript in my school is not more than 1500, so are they going to use 14500 for mailing within a 15 minute distance?

Why should a third party have access to request for my transcript. . . Defeats the purpose of confidentiality. . . . This service should be shut down

Yvete: There could be other factors that work against a visa applicant. For instance, poor grammar, improper dressing, ... Or bad looks grin grin (this may not be the case in this situation though).

At 25, you should have at least attended a higher institution prior to your application with either transfer credit, associates or a bachelors degree. I'll say the truth that its ridiculous if you're a freshman.

I no fit laugh abeg wey the laughing smiley.
yvete nwa nnem most people looking for visa their eyes dey red. they will not see d joke in what u said.
american visa is a serious emotional matter.
or is it dat some people dont know the meaning of freshman?
freshman is 100 level so wat shes saying is dat if u;ve ever
attended uni before, mention it to the VO or better still transfer credit
for ur own good.

Little-Known Colleges Exploit Visa Loopholes to Make Millions Off Foreign Students

By Tom Bartlett, Karin Fischer, and Josh Keller

Early on a Friday morning, four college students stand shivering in the parking lot of an office complex in Sterling, Va. The building itself is unremarkable, red brick and dark glass, but security cameras are bolted to the walls, cement posts line the perimeter, and coils of concertina wire surround the trash bins. This is a branch of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the investigative arm of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.

But a Chronicle investigation suggests that Tri-Valley is only the beginning. Other colleges—most of them unaccredited—exploit byzantine federal regulations, enrolling almost exclusively foreign students and charging them upward of $3,000 for a chance to work legally in the United States. They flourish in California and Virginia, where regulations are lax, and many of their practices—for instance, holding some classes on only three weekends per semester—are unconventional, to say the least. These colleges usher in thousands of foreign students and generate millions of dollars in profits because they have the power, bestowed by the U.S. government, to help students get visas.

While these institutions are well-known among Indian students looking to work full time, they have managed to go mostly unnoticed in the United States. That anonymity is just fine with Daniel Ho, the owner of the University of Northern Virginia, an unaccredited college that has called itself the most popular American university for Indian students. Says Mr. Ho: "We don't want people to know us."

But even a cursory examination of Tri-Valley reveals problems. The Web site is rife with misspellings, creative grammar, and apparent untruths. It says, for example, that the university is accredited by the International Association of Bible Colleges and Seminaries, but an official there said Tri-Valley was never a member and that the association doesn't offer accreditation. Purported faculty members who appear on Tri-Valley's Web site say they never taught there. One of the four members of the university's advisory board, Sung Hu, a professor of electrical engineering at San Francisco State University, say that while he accepted an invitation from Ms. Su to be an adviser years ago, the board had never met.

How could such a transparently troubled institution become certified by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security to enroll international students? As Tri-Valley officials discovered, loopholes and vague wording in the rules make it relatively easy for an upstart university to get approval.

The rush of Indian students to such a new college would have raised concerns among American consular officials in India if they had seen a flood of visa requests from admitted Tri-Valley students. But the university exploited a rule that allows students to gain admission to one college, secure a visa, then transfer to another without ever setting foot on the first campus. The Indian government found that only 10 students had been granted visas directly from U.S. Consulates in India to attend these institutions.

The tensions are continuing to play out. When the four former Tri-Valley students were interrogated at the immigration office in Northern Virginia, federal agents seemed skeptical that they really were victims. They must have realized, one agent told them, that Tri-Valley wasn't what it claimed. The students responded that Tri-Valley had approval from U.S. immigration services. How were they supposed to know it wasn't operating within the bounds of the law if the government didn't?

After hours of questioning, one of the four was arrested and released on his own recognizance. He will have to appear in front of an immigration judge. After his release, the student seemed to be in shock, muttering that his life had been ruined. Once outside the building, he put his hand over his face and began to weep.

As for the three other former Tri-Valley students, one will be attending the University of Northern Virginia. The other two are enrolled at nearby University of North America, located on the second floor of a Wachovia bank building. The university barely existed just a few months ago, with fewer than two dozen students. Now it may enroll as many as 75 former Tri-Valley students. It has three closet-size classrooms, a small computer lab, and a skeleton staff.
