conyema12: Pls guys I need some answers.... Can my Friend in US use his Debit card VISA to register GRE and TOEFL for me here in Nigeria?.... If yes, how do I go about it?Well to answer your question, YES he can. How does he go about it, well you could always give him access to you Ets Gre account assuming you've already created one, provide him with details in order to fill the form, he then picks a suitable date and maybe centre then proceeds to payment with his card. I'm assuming you've already done all this and payment is where you stopped, in that case he just proceeds straight to payment. Same goesfor Toefl, your Ets Toefl account |

Top 20 schools infact, however, they are very selective so I hope your Gpa and Gre will be high enough. Throw in some safety schools like Texas Tech or UH if texas is where you really wanna be. When you're looking for cheap and high ranking UT austin and TAMU are the bomb. Cheers! |

I was denied of F1 visa @ the Lagos embassy today. I already applied for B1/B2 visa late last year but denied also. Here's how the interview went: Interview lasted for about 10 minutes VO: Good morning and may I have your documents (Smile) Me : Good morning (smile). Sure (handed over my passport, appointment letter, I-20 and sevis receipt) VO: why are you going to the US? Me: To pursue Master's Degree in Telecommunications Eng... (Cut in... Oh it's student visa) Took his time to check my I-20 and typed on the Computer. VO: so which school? Me: Uni of xyz VO: why the school? Me: Uni of xyz is a tier 1 University and is highly ranked especially in my field of study. I also gathered that uni of xyz offers intensive preparation for professional programs in the design, programming, theory and application of telecommunications network which suits my profession as a Network Engineer. (He didn't even listen to my story... Was still busy typing on the computer) VO: what other schools did you apply? Me: abc Uni, Uni of yyy and zzz Uni. VO: wow okay! (He didn't ask me how many admit or reject...) Did u write any standardised test? Me: Yes I wrote GRE and TOEFL VO: May I see your GRE score card Me: handed it to him He typed on his computer and gave it back to me. VO: when did u finish UG? Me: 2011 VO: which University u finished from and what course did u study? Me: University of Bleep and I studied Electrical Electronics Engineering. VO: you are 2x years old right, can u tell me about your post secondary sch activities till date. Me: I went to Polytechnics between 2004-2007 and University 2007-2011. Did nysc, wrote toefl, gre and some professional certifications and now am working. (His colleague called him, He asked that I excused him and went to speak to his colleague... Don't know if it's about my case or someone else) VO: okay! So where do you work? Me: Bleep (an ICT firm) as the network infrastructure engineer. VO: what will the Master's do for you? Me: it will increase my technical skills and facilitate promotion and increased remuneration when I return back to the company. VO: how much do you earn presently? Me: 75,000 VO: what promotion will you get? Me: as far as the IT Manager of the company. VO: okay! So what salary would u get? Me: (didn't prepare for this and sounded uncertain) about 250,000k per month. VO: who will be funding your education? Me: my Brother and ... Cut in (I wanted to mention my Dad too though he's only supporting with fixed assets VO: what does He do? Me: He's an international staff and currently the personnel manager of Bleep oil and gas serving company in Accra Ghana. VO: sign of disbelief (May I see your financial documentation...) Gave to him documents showing the account statement, pay slip, letter of sponsorship and Work Attestation. He typed on his system and won't stop checking the account statement again and again as it's in USD and of course in a US bank in Texas. Do you have any relative in the US? Me: Not any more. My brother used to work and live in the US but he has moved to Ghana on job transfer. However, as an int'l staff, he's paid in USD. VO: kept on typing on the system for mins and nodding his head. (Guess this is when he's about taken a decision. He packed all my documents and in a sober voice, He reluctantly said, "... BUT AM SORRY, YOUR VISA CAN NOT BE ISSUED AT THIS TIME, PLEASE TRY AGAIN LATER" Me: Deep sigh... Okay! Thank you and left. Please where did I go wrong? What do I need to work on? I need your advice as am planning to reapply sometime in June/July. Applying for Fall term. Thanks |

@lisadem Sorry about your denial. You did well in your interview. I think the denial has to do with your home ties. The VO probably sees your brother trying to get you into the US. People here barely use a foreign bank statement |

Lol @lisadem... The 'bleep' thing made me laugh even when the situation does not permit. I'm very sorry for your delay... You sure can reapply; just take your time. I think the foreign account and probably your age '27' caused it... (this days most prospective student for masters are within the 23-26 age bracket) But why did you "bleep" the name of the university you had your undergraduate degree? #JustCurious I'm sorry once again... |

Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part4 by hope4me2012: 2:33pm On May 30, 2013 |
@lisadem, i suggest you get another bank statement based in nigeria, and emphasize more on how the degree will help you in nigeria, mention specific companies or industry where the degree will posit you for. Be optimistic...reapply and if asked about your brother, just state where he is now, dont say he used to be in US except if asked specifically. Be honest in ur responses.....all the best. 1 Like |

This same question you've been going from thread to thread to post, why can't you just simply use google? this is to bring into the notice of the people of akure and its environs that an aviation school is now in akure. 4air world consults is the school that has decided to affiliate with anis international school of aviation and transport studies, lagos to give the people of akure and its environs a well qualified training in air ticketing and reservation.https://www.nairaland.com/325415/aviation-school-akure The is the same google that I used to do a quick search and came up with this, in barely one minute. |
