My school resumes early January, but I intend to spend some good time with my uncle in California for December, then move to Chicago (my school) by January. I hope there won't be any problem about that @ the POE?

meekpie: Here's a partial transcript for your perusal sirs

Me: Good Morning

V.O: Good morning

. . . Long pause, lasted about 1 and half minutes or so, but seemed longer. The V.O seemed to be reading some information on his computer and typing very fast. I also used this opportunity to arrange my documents a little bit better. . . Finally he started asking questions;

He asked about my course and why I decided to go and study it, He asked about how I applied. . .If I wrote the GRE,
If I applied to any other schools,
Who's paying for my school,
Asked to see account statement,
Asked if I've been in the US before right? (Rhetorical). . . Went on to ask how long was the longest time I stayed during my trips to the US. . .

Finally, he reached to his right while saying to me "soo your Visa is approved, pick it up next week after the holidays". . .He also slid my I-20 back to me and said "You'll need this". . . All took less than 5 minutes I think. I said thank you very much and left. . .

Sorry about the shortened form folks, I'm pretty busy at work. It really didn't take very long at all even though it seems like the questions are quite a few. . .

Thanks to everyone in here. God bless you all.

I sent mine for #12800. However, if your school is sending it directly it's kinda cheaper with a difference of 2800. A friend paid 10k to my school for shipping, same DHL though.

........d first cold DAT welcomed me was noting to write home about.immediately,my ears,nose,hands and feet were super cold as if am in a freezer.......

This part must be a joke of the century.

The lowest so far is today 19 degree Celsius and it's due to the cloudy and sprinkling light rain.

All past weeks it was around 20 to 25 degree Celsius.

That's not cold, check your health....... flight sickness probably.

As for your question, anytime but if your application proves bogus, green approval is between 3 months to infinite years.

So, take it easy and never lick hot soup in haste.

Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 6 by Nobody: 3:38pm On Oct 01, 2014
@ridimic...Check if the sum has been deducted from your account(gtb or whichever one u used). When your registration excercise is successful, there ought to b a response showing ur confirmation order,payment type,amt blah blah, so there is nothing ambiguous abt knwing if u av paid or nt. I registered last month and it was pretty straightforward. Where I had a little hitch was during the verification of my email address on paypal. Since u av gone beyond dt stage, i dnt expect u to av much wahala. By the way,hope u av ur intl passport or plan on procuring one soon?

Friends, October 31 is deadline for many universities for spring which I intend enrolling for Master's. Most require WES transcript evaluation which I've been processing for about 3 months now, you know how our uni's are. I learnt it would be ready next week, then I'll despatch to DHL straight to WES. Considering the processing times of contacting my Uni etc, October 31 might not be feasible I fear.
I currently have a copy of the transcript addressed to Unilag. Are there Grad schools that accept Scanned transcript addressed to other institution just to get admission. I emailed one of my univ of choice and requested a WES transcript.
Kindly provide any university that accepts scanned ones just for admittance before issuing the I-20 letter.
Thanks.

Sorry about that. A few schools do accept scanned documents. Sadly, I can't remember any. People in he house go help. Coupled with what other will give you, a few minutes of search on the Internet will give you great results.

But sir, if I may ask, which school is using 3 months to process your transcripts? Are you applying for the first time? Even if you are, it shouldn't take more than a month, in the worst instance. Some schools need recalibration!

The challenge is that a school that took forever to give you your transcripts might take eternity to reply WES' verification mail. WES isn't the issue, usually, it is the lackadaisical, corrupt and lazy attitudes of staffs of the exams and records units of our universities. May God deliver us from us.

Contrarily, my first transcripts application took just 2 weeks and subsequent copies are always gotten in a day or 2.

Yea, it was hot everywhere. 72 is still nice, there was a time in the summer last year when TX was around 100+

When yours was at 72 degree Fahrenheit, that of NY was at 70 degree Fahrenheit. It's been cloudy and sprinkling since Monday.
