I want to say a very BIG thank you to all those that has been contributing to the success of the thread, may God continue to bless you all.
Ok, I need serious assistance here...I am planning to apply for my student visa soon. Please I will really appreciate any one who can guide me through the steps to follow. I wanna do my masters in the US. I need to know the very first step to take. l need a step ny step breakdown of the process. Am yet to collect my Certificate and transcript from my school, am I supposed to get those first, or apply to schools first then request for the transcript when I get the admission? Am planning to write GRE, am I supposed to write the exam first before looking up for schools? PLEASE HOUSE, I JUST NEED TO KNOW WHERE TO START FROM. Thanks.
Good you found the spiritual visa paradise. I'll advise you first find schools you'd like to go. Next, check their admission requirement. Usually, GRE, sop, lor, transcript and TOEFL are basic requirements but this depends on the school requirement again. Do your TOEFL and GRE, once you get your scores, begin to mail your desired school graduate coordinator about your interest, qualifications, test scores, academic transcript(student copy) and funding opportunity. If they encourage you to apply, do sharply.
On the transcript issh, you can get a student copy and use that for the admission process, if admitted you can then send the official copy from school. The ogas them too will put you through than I've done.

Here are the ways you can get your transcript;

1. Ask a nairalander who has an official email (his/her university email address(es) e.g lastname.firstname@ucalgary.ca). When filling your application for transcript form, put this email in the section of the email address you want them to send this transcript to. Follow up with the person on nairaland, whatsapp, email. The person will then tell you if s/he has receive your transcript or not. if the person receive am, s/he will then send it to you. This is how some people here got their transcript

2. Login to your postgraduate portal at the SPGS Unilag site. Check your dashboard, download your transcript from there. The disadvantage (2) has is that your score will appear not the grade whereas (1) will just include only your grade. E.g, if you have 70 in a course, it might be calculated as B+ (I may be wrong) but if they just include A in a course without the score, it will be calculated as A. Please, go with option (1)

Success ahead in your application for graduate studies.


NB: Look for atleast two people that has this email. Ask the big sis Lagosismyhome, Walspring, Happday, Justwise

**cheers**

Guy go to your HOD and request for an unofficial transcript of score report of you MSc courses showing grade,score and address for each school. You supervisor and HOD can sign with a stamp to make it original simple. Ask the Secretary of your department to produce it for you. Best of Luck..

Nothing is guaranteed, although you are in a good position.
You should contact the school straight away and find out what is happening.
They might not have got your papers.
Check now.

Visa approved (oct-19-2016) this morning 6:30am All Glory be to God Almighty, the Alfa and Omega of my journey, I can never forget that life changing date.
It was a day before my interview finger crossed very tensed started calling walspring like “Kilode” for voice mock interview while I am already at yabatech school to lodge for easy access to embassy in time,11:20pm the shower of blessing started dropping (the rain was so heavy) … fastforward….3:00am God woke me up I could not sleep anymore I started dressing up and singing praise and worship, I got to the embassy I was the second in the line then later lost my spot stayed some where in 15th, I just kept singing within my mind to ease tension, I didn’t even think about the interview anymore because I was just enjoying my celestial hymn.. fast-forward… after all security check up, I finally got to the combusting chamber (hot room), I saw all the windows naira land has been talking about, Window 5 called me in, He was not smiling at all the last applicant before was denied, I came to him and the 12 minutes drills began..
Me: good morning sir with a big smile
Vo: didn’t answer, can I have your document please?
Me: I gave him
Vo: typed for just 20secs, how do you come about BFIT?
Me: I catalog several schools based on my interest and preffered teaching approach using academically search engines such as www.engineeringschools.com, google.com, and finally narrowed my search down to technology using www.usnews.com (memorized answer from NL)
Vo: how long is this course gonna take you?
Me: it is going to take me the total period of 48 months sir
Vo: how long did you practice auto mechanics?
Me: (I was so confused, then quickly remembered that I filled 24month in my ds160 form, please note fill your ds160 form yourself) It took me the period of 24 months sir. (voice was shaking this time then I quickly put myself together)
Vo: what type of degree is this?
Me: oh! Its an undergraduate degree sir
Vo: what course are you going for? (touching my passport, I was like blood of Jesus, I didn’t just know where the confident came in from, the Lord just took control of the interview hence)
Me: I am basically going for mechanical engineering technology, which is basically about the fundamental analysis of engine, trouble shooting, manufacturing, maintainance and majored in automotive tech 113 that deals basically about the chassis, the internal combustion of engine where the intake valve take flow in of gas mixture and being ignite by the spark plug to produce a power stroke which moves the crankshaft to complete transmission ( by this time I was at the top of my voice moving from left to right with demonstrations showing confidents, while VO was shaking his head and removed his hand from my passport).
Vo: so tell me why are you going to BFIT?
Me: I am practically oriented in nature and BFIT offers a practical approach especially in research areas manufacturing and automotive. It is also affiliated to engineering firms such as procter and gamble one of the best engineering firm in united state which basically offers internships to BFIT students.
Vo: who is sponsoring you?
Me: my elder brother
Vo: what does he do?
Me: He is a mechanical Engineer who works in **oil and gas ** company as a chief Cargo survior.
Vo: ( just kept typing and I was just praying internally) here is your i-20, you are gonna be needing it at the p.o.e make sure you keep it well and pick up your visa 3 business day in one of the location in the paper…
NOTE: No document was asked, Please be confident and speak clearly.. and when you hear people say be honest it means answer question according to what you fill in your ds160 form…
Special thanks to God almighty, Walspring (the guy ready to pay with his money to make sure things go well), Bright, texrem, femi321, tominsin, islammy, so many others who has contributed to this forum one way or the other I say a very big thanks to you all, may God Almighty grant you all your heart desire Amen.
