ronnie28uk: Hey all.
Just got in from my interview, and it was very smooth. Success without a sweat. It was a no-documents-asked interview. Take a look at how it went.

Me- repeats name. Yes ma'am
VO- what masters are you going for?
ME- Masters in Public Health
VO- In what school?
Me- Texas A&M University
VO- why did u choose that school?
Me- it is one of the top 25 schools of public health in America. The departmental objectives of the course are well aligned with my career goals. I have also spoken with my advisor and I'm really excited about the research topic he's handling and can't wait to get started!
VO- did u apply to other schools? Name the schools.
Me- Yes. University of South Florida in Tampa and Rutgers University, New Jersey
VO- did u write any standardized tests?
Me- Yes, Gre and Toefl
VO- how did u do?
Me- I have my results here, will u like to take a look?
VO- no just say how u did? Did u do very well?
Me- yes I did excellently well

God's favour at work! Lessons learnt- exude confidence, be cheerful, do ur homework, don't be agitated if u get several questions, just take them in stride.

Why not change that school? I think it's one of the Red Flag schools.

Never! I applied to the school and wasn't given admission. It's a private research based institute.

aekmanweb: @imperiouxx: I didn't mean i would use the CC admission for Visa application, only wanted to have their I-20 with me here in Nigeria prior to traveling to the States so that upon arrival in the U.S, i would just apply for transfer from the UNI to the CC because i wouldn't want to miss the semester. Is that a bad idea? Please, be candid and advice.

Sure, that's fine. I thought you mean you're going to show them CCs are the other schools you applied to.

Best of luck.

Congratulobialations, Filanid. God has indeed done it again, not just for you but for the entire body of thread members.

...but you should consider modifying your quotes.

I'm applying to a school in Kentucky, we might get to meet someday! Enjoy your U.S.A!!

It's been sorted and we have since acknowledged our mistake

Congrats to those that got their visas approved..

Just have a question tho. After being denied before because I-20 was family fund and ds160 and interview sesssion states company fund. What are ♍Ɣ‎ chances if I fill another ds160 stating family fund and reapply and go for interview before deadline date on I-20?

Or you think I should just write to the school then ask them to issue a new I-20 stating company fund, that means I will have to defer to the next semester.
Please which do you think is best? You could also rate both ways using percentage. Will be 21 nxt year and undergrad studies, hope that won't complicate issues?

Tochium:
VO: why this school?
me: because university of Bridgeport has a great record of academic excellence in Health science, also the staff-student relationship at the University of Bridgeport is very cordial especially for international students, that is why the school is ranked by US News and world report as the 11th most racially diverse national university in USA

@ Tochium
I felt bad when you said you were denied the visa cos you are a regular here. Don't let it get to you as some of the Ogas of this forum were also denied visas at their initial attempts. I think you should change the school to another university and work on the question 'Why this particular school?' I don't think the VO would be convinced by the bolded response.
The reason you choose a school shouldn't be because it is racially diverse or cos they have a cordiaql relationship with their students cos most universities in the US relate well with their students. Emphasize the first bit of your answer which is the school's academic excellence and try and specifically relate it to the school's academic excellence in your chosen course. Please don't be tempted to give a generic answer, be as specific as possible.
Do not be discouraged bro and go get that visa!!

Bro, you no wan hear word oo. We don talk about this already nah. PLS BE CONSISTENT.

Send a mail to your school to defer till fall and correct the error on your I20.

Pls don't be in a haste to go to the embassy to avoid getting the same result.

Goodluck!

@Amefrica, when I retreieve the new I-20 with the corrected mistake, what will I tell the VO when he/she asks why I was denied before? Or why I changed I-20? Or want will be ♍Ɣ‎ excuse for what I have been doing from 2010-2014 till now? That's 4yrs since I left high school?

Did u attach a copy of your I-20 showing the resumption date and your Sevis fee receipt? I think that could be a reason for ED refusal.

Meanwhile Abj or Lag where can I get the earliest date for visa booking?
