Hello gud evening guys I have bin a silent follower of dis thread, I must commend the efforts of all of u guys u guys have really bin amazing.....
I graduated from uniben were I studied theatre art 2015 already served finished service last year 2016.
now I applied to a community college I also sent my sponsors bank statement original copy alongside my transcript and my application form through dhl ,dhl sent it to a wrong school after 3weeks the school didn't get it, my Frend went in search for it and found it in anoda school (tank God) he den took it to the school. my admission to the school is guaranteed.
I have bin studying peoples testimonies and visa denial conversation between applicants and VO and I have learnt alot
my questions are -:
1)Bin that I submitted the original bank statement to the school can I take the photocopy to the embassy?
2)wat if am asked by the vo whom am going to be staying with knowing that my school doesn't provide accomodation for international student wat wud be my response
3)wat if am asked why I didn't apply for a masters program instead of an associate degree in a community college bin dat am a bsc holder Abeg Wetin I go answer
pls guys I need help on dis questions I await your response thank you

1. Except the Original came out as coloured, there isn't much difference between them. And if you're worried about the stamp, you could always get another statement before your interview.
2. The VO may likely not ask who you're gonna stay with. It's not mandatory to stay on campus. You can always get an apartment outside of campus, and I hear it's cheaper.
3.I don't know exactly what you want someone to tell you. I'm not a superhuman thus I lack the ability to read minds. You alone know why you wanna go for an associate degree the equivalent of which is OND. One would think you'd wanna pursue a masters degree being that you have a bachelors. So why do you wanna go for an associate?? On the one hand, the odds against you is high if the VO realizes that you already have a bachelors and on the other hand you wouldn't want to be guilty of misrepresentation of any kind.
In summary, just tell the truth, it's easier.

They will LAND YOU 214B straight. Your story no make sense, make una take am easy dey lie abeg

Hello guys, Santa Clarita community college gave me admission and sent the i20 to my mail, they said I have to pay for shipping for the i20 to be sent down to Nigeria, ups charges 118$ Which is too much for me. Now my question is can I print out the i20 on my mail and proceed with it to the embassy ?

No it must be the original...but you can ask the school to send it for free to someone in the US who can send it to you through USPS express for half that price

This is difficult because it does not show progression.... going from bsc to community college is goimg backwards instead of forward...... with todays exchange rate why spend dollars to go backwards..... Most times the VO does not approve due to this reason.

dazzy2:

they would land you 214b straight not me

tell your agent to explain to you. So you know what 214B means. Let me tell you the truth, you would be denied the visa except you go back and do the needful

dazzy2:

they would land you 214b straight not me it wasn't compulsory for u to comment

I'm in US already chilling with my PR. You better retrace that useless move you want to make.

You will need to be packaged right and have a clear response to why CC

You're welcome.

Chapecoense:

in this case one has to be forfeited. So ur frnd will choose between SEVIS fee or VISA fee. The only reasonable thing to do here is let the former sevis expire, Pay a new one, and reschedule the interview to accommodate the delivery of the i20. Reschedule well in advance this time.

Thanks,he will have to forfeit the SEVIS and reschedule another appointment if the i20 didn't come before thursday

How did this in bold happen
Why are you going for a diploma when you already have a degree
Red flag straight

mbagwu:
Good day house. please. I applied for Msc to study Public Affairs in NMHU in New Mexico and I got the admission. My i20 was sent in January 10th 2017 and registration was scheduled to end on the 24th of same month so I deferred till fall in August 2017. The question now is, I had initially been denied a b1b2 visa two years ago and same last year August. However, my dad just became a citizen of the US. He resides in Philly, which is why I didn't apply to any school there. Please hope this won't affect my procuring of the visa coz I'm at cross roads and really need advice. 

Furthermore, how do need to say to convince them based on the fact that I have been denied twice? Although, my reason for applying last year was just to attend a seminar and as well see him. 
Thanks in anticipation for the responses.


Imperiouxx responded

As you already know your previous denials would put more scrutiny on your application at the interview. You have been denied visiting, seminar and now you're going for student. You need to proof you have a genuine purpose of going to U.S and not to migrate, as you've tried many other options. Nothing is impossible but you have to convince the VO you're not just looking for a cheap escape route. Answer this questions so that we all can best understand your case.

Did you do any standardized test.
How do you get the school and how many schools
When did you finish your bs
What is your credential like
What's your home ties
Who is your sponsor?


I provided the responses Imperiouxx requested for. But seems he's busy. Guys please advice.

That was why I came on this platform to seek advice from the experienced ones.
I'm about to take IELTS which I'm still studying for. 
I got the school from a colleague of mine who's studying there already. I also applied to Temple University, TSU and University of Pennsylvania. 

I got my B.sc in 2011 and I have been working since. Presently, I work with one of the leading banks in Nigeria as a CSE and have been in the sector for 3yrs now. 

I got a 2.98/5.0 due to some issues I had. 

Presently, I have 2 cars in Uber that is generating income for me and I got a land somewhere in Lagos. I still work with the bank. 

My dad is my sponsor. He is supposed to pay the tuition fees and I take care of the remaining school bills(housing, health, miscellaneous). So yes, my dad will be the sponsor. He's based in the US as a citizen that is why I'm a bit worried about going for the interview.

Any nairalander in Mississippi. Where is fortissimo and bbdd?

My big boss. You get my number na. Wazzup.

Please I sent you a PM.thanks

bbdd:


Hey slimmy what's up?

I am highly loyal to the men of the house. It's being a long time. I wish those who have gotten visas a safe travel and I wish those who are still applying a successful process. Just a word of advise: Dollar has gone up pretty much so be wise when applying to schools, paying application fees and sending packages. Do it wisely, ask questions, research schools properly so that you don't waste money. I will be available for any questions and thoughts.
Slimmy 2005 I greet you hope you are fairing well man.

Anyone in any of these schools: Georgia Southern University, Middle Tennessee State University and Florida Institute of Technology? I got admitted into these schools ( M.S Mechatronics, M.S Engineering Technology and M.S Electrical Engineering respectively) for Fall 2017 Term with out any information on funding. Only the Graduate Scholarship committee of FIT gave me a scholarship of $6000, which still doesn't cover the tuition fee.

Did you submit a completed (MTSU) GA application form? If yes, when?
