looking forward to evry form of criticism that i can get..

Thanks in advance

Q: What do you want to go and do in the USA

Q: Why St. Cloud?
A: I chose St. Cloud of the following reasons
1. The course content aligns with my short and long term career goals and interests
2. The faculty of the program especially the director of the program is a seasoned engineering manager with vast industrial and research experience, he has served as a management consultant to major companies, was part of the team that wrote the Engineering Manager Handbook and also a past president of the American Society of the Engineering managers
3. St Cloud is one of the schools certified by the American Society of Engineering Managers
4. The opportunity to also take MBA classes in the Herberger Business school
5. The affordability of the school

Q: What’s your study plan?
A: I would be doing 32 units of Management courses over the course of the duration of the program

Q: Duration of the Course
A: 36 months

Q: How does this course relate to your under graduate program:
A: I did Electrical Engineering in my undergraduate, from my experience; I realize Engineers and technicians acts and behave like machines, in the sense that they are most times all about working which a lot of times cause them to burn out before the accomplishment of the task/projects, this course would assist help improve me in my people management skills to keep an happy and energetic team with minimal or no worries at all

Have you been denied previously?
When was that, if YES is your answer?

I do not believe that March 20 is your earliest appointment date. You must be doing something differently.

Yes have been denied before that's 3 years ago

nobleroyal:

Laparo:
Pls house I wanted to schedule my appointment for January 2019 no space again till march 20 is that possible .And someone booked for Jan 2 ....is there anything wrong

olakenny12:
Hello House, I've been following this forum for couple of years but can't but affirm it's indeed an educative forum.
I do have a very serious issues here and i need you guys to advise me. I have been denied F1 visa several times (4)
at the embassy, last time being last year December. All these while, i have always gone with one particular school though
i got admission from other schools. This same school has now offered me admission for 2019 spring semester with half
assistanship (was offered this the last time too). I want to know if it seems logical to apply for visa again for the fifth time
with the same school.
I am actually going for master program in electrical engineering.

Thanks.

ChrisMafian:
The Judiciary system is bleeped up, they should have sent him to jail on first trial.

Enasdan:
I fully applied to two universities, only one granted me admission does that sound nice as a serious student to a VO,?

Dwebsites1:
Pls guys, I got just one admission from American at d moment but I heard that, it's better to go to the (visa interview) with at least 2 or more admissions.
my question is that;
if VO asked me, how many schools did u apply to? & and how many admit?
ME: I apply to 3 schools & got 3 admits.
HOPE THEY (((WILL NOT VERIFIED))) THAT, IT'S JUST ONE SCHOOL I APPLIED TO & ONE ADMISSION I GOT ??
Someone with good answers? God bless everyone! thanks

tunji5558:
Hello everyone, my interview is next week which will be my second attempt. I was denied in August and the VO didnt tell me any reason but I made mistake in my I20, I signed the space for under 18 applicants. Could this be why I was denied? Can I tell the VO this for why I was denied the last time if she asked for what has changed?

Vo : Why did u choose bccc ?
Me : I chose Baltimore city community college because of the standard and content of education they offer and the fact that they give helping hands to their students to achieve their goal's
Vo: Why Nursing?

Hopefuldreamer:
V. O: have you travelled out of the country before?

Me: yes.

V.O: "flipping through my virgin passport." to where?

Me: to Ghana, by road using my voters card because I haven't gotten my international passport as at then and I enquired from the transport company about using my voters card and they confirmed I can.

V. O: passed blue paper.

My second interview was yesterday. Also went smooth until travelling history was asked and I told them the same thing and was still denied.

I didn't want to lie and that is why I told the vo that I have travelled to Ghana before. But since there isn't any stamp on my passport to verify that, I don't know if the embassy have blacklisted me.

I'm thinking of saying I haven't travelled before in my next application but I thought of inconsistency.

I'm also thinking of visiting Ghana this weekend so as to get stamp. But I'm thinking it will raise a red flag.

Please is there any solution to my problem?, I'm scared of reapplying again.

@lagosismyhome, femi312, 100kobo, justwise, every body who has been in this shoes before.

homirefacuny:
I really spoke the truth as it is o. I don't know I will be nailed for it. Can I get an early date as 22 if I pay another visa fee now. Mhen it's so frustrating to be denied o lol

homirefacuny:
Are you saying I have to pay another visa fee?? It's well. I really frustrated

homirefacuny:
Hi everyone.
I had my interview for the fall semester semester this morning in Abuja. I was delayed.. Here goes the transcript. I was interviewed by one black woman in window 11. The other two people before me were denied too.

VO...... Good morning
Me..... Good morning ma'am

VO.... You are going to the the USA to do what?
Me.... To pursue my MSc degree in Computer science and quantitative methods with a concentration in Information assurance and security

VO.... Since when have you been processing this?
Me... April.

VO.... You didn't state why you are here in April? I can see you were going for a graduation ceremony
Me.... Yes it was my cousins graduation in Texas... I had some time off work and I wanted to use that opportunity to see a couple of schools over there before making my decision on which schools to go for.

VO... Where do you work?
Me...I have a contract job with NNPC Ibadan depot and I do so so so and so
How about putting it simply that you have a job with NNPC. This fact is non controvertible and would have indicated a stronger economic tie, rather than mentioning "contract job". Sometimes people give out too much information that only serve to hurt their chances. You were easily denied for lacking home ties.

VO.... How long you been working there?
Me.... Stated it

VO... You married?
Me... Yes

VO... Any kids?
Me.... No

VO... Sorry we can't bla bla bla.

My GTA was not even considered
The entire room became cloudy to me�

I have been trying to see if I can get an expedited appointment but I cant find it on my page. What's going on pls??
Nothing is going on. You will need to schedule an appointment before applying for an expedited process. Do not let the experience of the past deter you. Visa decisions are largely made on the merits of your current application only if you've not given yourself away in your past outing(s).

thirdpage:
Why sounding so sure about this? Do you know all the schools in US? Anyway, there are schools that evaluates transcripts in-house and yes they give admissions to HND into their masters program without WES. However its advisable to always have the WES evaluation.

Oegbeyem1:
I mean no offense, how am I eligible to book as regular when I was interviewed in July and denied. Because it is written there that misrepresentation can lead to a visa denial during the interview. Again I mean no offense, I just want to know what I don't know.

Oegbeyem1:
yes I meant expedited. I'm still seeing December 31 as the earliest date when I login, on the CGI home page. I don't know why. But with my denial history, am I eligible for an expedited appointment? I have only applied for visa (F1) once (in July) and was denied and I have never used an expedited appointment.

uniquefurlife:
US embassy naija they vex the policy has become stronger, from what the VO told the guy they now verify ALL bank statements i guess they now ask the banks for balance as well. Which means out of 10 SOA submitted they verify 8 odiegwu!! Thanks to those they keep begging to be cautious of what they post in a public forum like this because they've succeeded in making things difficult for the genuine students.

yemiteantho:
The transcript is as follows;
VO: Good Morning
Me: Good morning and how are you doing?
VO: Good thank you (Smiling). Can you pass your i20 and passport please?
Me: Handed it Over.
VO: Why did you want to study this particular course in US?
Me: The master's degree will equip me with the necessary expertise required to be a professional health educator in Nigeria. bla bla bla....

VO: Waited again foe like 1 min.... Your visa have been approved
Me: Thank you
VO: Passed me the two white documents i described earlier
Me: Like when will me passport be ready for collection?
VO: Between 2-3 business days.
.
.
.
VO: I wish you a nice study in the US.
me: Thank you.
She did not give me back my financial statement though!
Later in the day, we were told that the embassy sent a mail to the bank to verify the statement and that it has been verified.
So, that is the transcript.
Only for me to check my status online now and to see refused and that I should refer to the paper i collected at the interview yesterday which was a congratulatory paper of being issued an F1 visa.

Ubah1:
This is totally not true. Nothing like pre-clearance

Do you fill if you have full funding on your DS 160?

Some candidates having short session depends on the V.O interviewing you. Some like asking much questions like the famous black American V.O


Please only advise on what you are sure of.

Though I agree with the bolded

Lord001:
Hi Guys,

Now my testimony. It was all God.

I had my visa app (J1) today in Abuja, 1pm.

7 persons were before me. 2 were denied (blue and yellow paper). All interviews took an average of 5-7 questions.

Now it was my turn. Name called to proceed to window 8. A white lady with pointed nose, may be in her late 30s.

V. O - with a smile, Good afternoon
Me: Afternoon Ma'am
V. O: what do you do in Nigeria?
Me: I am a legal practitioner, specifically a prosecutor with xxxxxxxxxxxxxx. My duties include xxxxxxxxxxx
VO: Are you married?
Me: No
VO: Any Children?
Me: No
VO: Alright. I will be approving your visa..... Bla bla bla.
Me: All smiles. Thank you and do have a great day.

NB: No travel history ie virgin passport and I'll be 29 come this December.

Bottom line : It was all God's grace. I went for my interview fasting sha. �

npmi:
Please I need someone to help me with corrections.
I applied to Atlantis University Miami Florida, Texas A&M University College Station. University of Alabama Birmingham. for my masters program.
If asked why I applied to these universities my response is:: They are located in bigger cities, I believe this will help me focus on my studies and achieve my goal of coming top of my healthcare management program.
Is my response good? I need suggestions.

I had my Interview on the 10th of October for Spring 2019, Please Guru's, I need your opinion on why I was denied visa. My transcript goes thus:

*V.O Goes through the statement again while typing some crap.
*V.O I’m sorry you are ineligible to enter the US at the moment, while handling to me the blue paper. Please check through section 214b …………………
I was dumbfounded, I felt my world was crashing in on me. I left the facility disgusted.
