Ricky Rozay:

No sir, DON'T apply for any Visa lottery while intending to go to the US Embassy soon. Just to be on a safer side.

Besides, Nigeria Is NOT eligible to play the 2015 DV lottery program which will begin on the 1st of October.

Whoever tells you there is any alternative for the lottery for Nigerians this year is a Big SCAM!

Be Warned!

nomso27:

paparazzi1987:

Ricky Rozay:

2014 DV lottery has elapsed, it was played Last year.

But this year's DV- lottery is for DV-2015..

Nigeria is NOT eligible to play for this year's Dv-2015 lottery which will commence on the 1st of October 2013.

overated13: Hello, I would like to make enquiry for my fiance. She is a Medical Doctor presently doing her Internship in one of the Teaching Hospitals. Please, she is considering doing her residency training in US as adviced by her mum. We've talked about it and have agreed on it. I want to know the steps, exams to be written, possibilities etc. Thanks a lot. God bless you all

winbyforce:
The USMLE steps 1 to 3 is the licensing exam to pass before u can practice in the US. Step 1 can be done in Ghana. I think step 2,and definitely step 3 can only be done in the US. So u see it presents some difficulty. I think it's advisable do go for a master's program first, and then take all d exams while u are there.

idalex: Good aft Fellas.
@ Ricky Rozay u've got a mail, pls reply.

Ricky Rozay:

Hw far bro. Hw's ur admission processing going. Hv u applied to those schools I gave u?

And which schools i-20s r u talking about?

buzritchy: Hello NL.... Peeps. HI
I av bin a silent reader of post for sometimes now both at the moment am planning to secure some good schools in US N CANADA••already working on ca••
Planning to go for Msc in Business mgt- international business . I hv my 1st degree in Cooperative and business mgt with Cgpa of 3.50
Not bad . Its equivalence to 4.00 GPA should be more than 3.00, the minimum for good schools.

My ? Is...... Is any1 doin related course that can give me some guidelines ?
Am sorry.

Is funding or scholarship available, if yes based in what ?
Usually STEM programs get more scholarship than NON-STEM. However, you can always tap from the limited one that's highly competitive if you have compelling profile - high scores in GRE and or TOEFL (optional depending on your school), RESUME/SOP and a smooth rapport with the Professors in your dept. That said, please finish with your application early. Most times, it's based on first-come first-served.

Can I get a supervisor in my proposed school faculty from here and how ?
Either way but the better is to get one from Naija.That means you must have been exchanging emails with the chosen Professor you are interested in...

Aside my transcript, school certificate, passport, letter of motivation , reference letters... What else do I really need ??
Guess this is application stage. You should add standardised test(s) and some schools ask for financial capability of sponsor before taking admission decision and sending I-20. Please check with your school to see what's peculiar to your case.

Response by anybody highly appreciated

Graviton: Please I'd like to get some facts down: I am currently filling my admission application form and my secondary schools(Junior & Senior) are about to send my transcripts and recommendations... is it okay for my transcripts and recommendations to get there before my admission application and essays

What's the best way to mail the school documents?

olawunmi_samuel: Hey house! I hail o. Pls who knows a cheap airline to newyork. I heard air maroc is cheap. Any ideas unto how much it will cost? Thanks.

Ricky Rozay:

Fly emirate is the Cheapest to NewYork if you book in advance like 2 to 3 months before your intended date of Departure.

If you book early enough as I stated above with fly emirate, you can get flight to JFK NewYork for as low as #136,000.

Check out their site - www.emirates.com/uk/english/index.aspx?stop_mobi=yes

seunolumonday: One way abi,as a student is it possible 2 book a return ticket

Ricky Rozay:

YES for one way..

As a Student you DON'T need to book a return ticket since you are NOT returning anytime soon..

So Book ONLY One-way Ticket to your Destination...

Ricky Rozay:

Why can't u take it one step at a Time..

First Step - Apply for admissions.

Then mail your admission application and essays to the school..

AFTER doing the above mentioned, then inform your US school by email that your high school will be sending your transcript and recommendations to them soon so they will be expecting it.

Also, make sure you correctly write your FULL Name in the email you sent them for easy identification and for them to locate your file and make remarks on pending documents which will be received soon @ their Office.

Do it that way, it is much better and organised in that manner. Because by doing so, they will start creating a file for you there and as soon as they receive your transcript and recommendation letters, they will add it up to your file which will make it much easier for em to locate and run your admission processing as fast and as efficient as possible without making things more complicated..

Regarding mailing of documents to schools in the US, the best method and most RELIABLE means of them all is by using FEDEX, UPS, DHL,TNT, EMS or any other Private courier to mail your admission package to the school which will get there within 4 working days..

But the only issue is the amount they charge for this service. Depending on the weight of the package, the least they charge ranges from 12k and above to send documents to the US.

DHL is the Most Expensive for Both Sending and Receiving.

But the cheapest of them all is EMS, they charge as low as 7k to send packages to the US depending on the weight of the package.

But another option you can use is NIPOST Registered mail, if you don't have much money on you. They are also Reliable for sending packages to the US but they are NOT Reliable for Receiving packages from the US to Nigeria.

I used Nipost Registered Mail to send my admission package to 3 schools in the US and I paid Just ONLY #700 for each package I sent, and all packages were received by my US schools in just 8 working days.

Some peeps here also used Nipost to send packages to the US and they don't encounter any troubles. Just Make sure you correctly write your US school's Full address..

Cheers.
