There is an international market where you can buy African foods or better still order online, as for financial aid, I don't think because they offer in-state tuition. Undergraduates tuition is 6390 USD while masters is around 7000 USD a year.
Housing is cheap, u can get a shared apartment for 370 to 400, utilities are like 40 a month
The beaver lodge in their website is 2086 for a semester.
Bro I go tell u the truth, the cold no be here, but they said this year own is not all that weird to compare last year. The most weird I have seen since I came is -9F.
But the place is pretty much good for study

thanks so much I really appreciate.
I am actually looking at RA, GA, OR A Teaching assistant.

Same thing with worldremit 194. Western Union charges $5 for transfer while world remit charge $4… western union is just a rip off, when you go to collect the money, they give you naira instead of dollar knowing how much you could change it at the black market

It's not western union. Its the government policy. So as to discouraged parallel market differentials. Each country states how they want sent money remitted!

That hasn't solved the Nigerian economy. The economy is in total shambles. Forget about the fabricated figures these guys give. They still run kangaroo economy.

[quote author=dannybrown19 post=42845586][/quote]

I changed my mind because of the following reasons:
It is very cold in ND while in TX, the weather is ok.
ND is a white stronghold, TX,Houston especially is a black stronghold. I will feel more athome there.
Tho ND is cheaper in terms of cost of living but TX, jobs pay higher wages and alot of jobs there to grab
The houston is big. I will make more friends and explore the usa better because after NY,LA,CHI no city has more people than H-town
Also its location. I can easily visit states like CA, FL, GA, NC, SC from there because flights would be cheaper from there.
Then Cars, cars are cheap in houston than any place in USA. I can easily be buying and shipping to nigeria because there is a big port there.
Alot of african restaurants in houston. Shopping places and things to do
Houston is very diverse even more than NY now. [Black,white,latino,asian,arabs] all are there
Lastly, it is easy to get Green card in state of texas although even if i get it,i would want to return to nigeria to start a career as a diplomat

Start learning the art of time management. Than before, TGIF will now make a lot of sense to you. Above all, you will be fine because you won't be alone, bro.

Not advisable. Western Union will actually block you from using their service and i am saying this from experience but not mine though.

Its hard to leave where you've already secured yourself a family. You've gained grounds there and it would be an easy ride surviving there.

Whereelse?if not the lone star state [TEXAS]. Alot of opportunities there. While California is more of a celebrity/rich peoples state. But if your speciality has to do with computer/ICT, you can try San fransisco bay area [palo alto, los altos, sunnyvale, mountain view] that is the technological capital of the world for now, where google,facebook and so on are but very expensive to live $1000+ for studio monthly.

But guys regarding OPT, does it matter where ur school is? Aren't the applications done online? So really I'd assume sm1 in mississippi shd be able to apply for, and get OPT in new York. Or am I missing something?
