Saw this late. First of all, you id reminds me of my sec. sch chem about Graham's Law of diffusion and effusion which states that the rate of diffusion or effusion for a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of the molar mass of the gas r ∝ 1/(M)½

Back to the issue. It would be better if you write the department stating your low CGPA as directed by others. Though, I doubt if sciences will welcome such request but who are we to confidently say it's impossible? No hope is lost, so writing them can open your eyes to what you don't know exists.

PS: Don't think about high ranked schools or the like of VIU. Consider some privates but know fully well that you're going to pay much to achieve your dreams.

Best of luck!

You will need to visit the nearest post office close to ur home and ask if ur i-20 package has been delivered because NIPOST receive this document from the US at an early date here in Nigeria but dey will use like 2 to 3 weeks to dispatch it to various homes....

So get moving now.... If it has reached 2 or 3 weeks since your sister sent your package from US to you through Nipost, then I suggest you will have to head to their office near your home to check if has been received..

It should be there... Cheers..
The guy should forget about NIPOST and use other courier services, my I-20 has been sent since April 5th, till tomorrow, av not seen it. I went to the post office in my area everyday for 1 month before giving up. Funny, enough they delivered all the denial letters from other schools I chose smiley Lesson of story, NIPOST knws hw to disappoint just when it matters most. I thank God I nw have my visa tho.

My cousin went back to Money Gram for a refund but unfortunately they said it'll take another 1week before he could get my $200 refund back. He said he didn't have anymore $$$ on him to get it done at Western union while he waits for the refund from money gram.

I have some money i thought I could get access to on friday so I could go through the or the Coutonu options but unfortunately I couldn't.

So I talked to this friend of mine who lives in California. I explained the urgency and how much I needed the Sevis fee paid on friday. She told me not to worry that she'll help me pay through Western Union as soon as they are opened for the day. She went to 3 different Western Union locations and kept calling me at every WU office she was, but the senders form she was giving didn't look anything like the DHS sample I sent to her. And besides they said they weren't conversant with DHS Sevis fee.

Now I'll like to ask those that pay theirs from abroad how they get it done.
-Can she use just any Western Union office?
-Does the form giving to her have to look the exact way the DHS sample form looks like?
-Are there just few Western Union offices where Sevis fee can be paid abroad?

I would have asked her to get it done through Money Order but it'll take 2days to deliver and time isn't on my side. She asked me to make inquiries and let her know so she could go back on saturday and get it done with the Form she was given earlier. Or she'll try looking for more WU offices.

oyetpel: i see you applied to VIU b4 and got denied, and i can see now that you applied to MSU, and got your visa, for BSC. Bro am in the same shoe now, just got denied maybe because of VIU, help me.

oyetpel:
Sorry i wanted to quote @olarwalay

Sorry I'm just replying to ur post, been trying to do last minute prep.

Yes, I applied to VIU for Spring last year. Joined this blessed thread and thank God I told the house about it.

I can still remember vividly the reply I got from Imperiouxx & Yvete telling Me to forget VIU and start all over again.

I heeded, took the TOEFL and SAT, applied to 4 schools, got 3 admissions, chose MSU outta the 3, did all necessaries and went for my interview.

I neither went to the embassy with VIU's I-20 nor was denied. To the glory of God, I got my Undergraduate visa approved at my first attempt.

To all new members, never hide anything important from the gurus in here... Have an open mind and You'll be glad You did.

Wish Y'all success at the embassy.

There is no special DHS form to pay for SEVIS. It's the same quickpay for everybody but u will modify the form as described in the sample below. I av not heard of some WU offices in the US not being able to process SEVIS fee payments.

NB: the picture actually shows the normal quickpay form on top and a sample i20 below it

She didn't see this type of form. Isn't this different form the regular form? Is this type Of form for sevis fee payment called quick pay form? I guess its a different type of service

The form u show here is quite different from what I have frm the pdf version on dhs site. The end of the form ask for Name/Department

I'm just being careful cos I have $200 stuck with money gram and don't want it to happpen here again

In America it's called quick collect not quick pay. Not all western union outlets have quick collect. So she has to go online to the western union website and look for the nearest quick collect close to her or she can Google it. The quick collect form would look like the picture above or slightly different. There is no special sevis type of form. If you can give me her location I can find the nearest quick collect outlets close to her.
I know what you passing through. I went through the same dilemma when it was my turn

You need to tell that you friend to tell the western union woman that she is pay to homeland security and their account name/number she sending it to so she will ask for a payment service form or send money form i will attach it but it does might not look like the one i will attach but that is the only form you can use to send money to people or people account.

Well maybe you email me your number and i call to explain to u better..

Use DHL instead. Pay for the pick-up service. It's about 17k and above depending on the location. They go and pick it up from your school and deliver it to you at your address in 3days at most a week. Choose a mailing address that is easy to find!
