sirRiddy: @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?

THKS boss

i received an international transaction notification fr gtb dat d 195 dollar has been authorised on my account...dats all.....den i just received an email from ets ''Your payment failed. No money has or will be withdrawn from your account. You will need to place a new order. For further assistance, please contact the TOEFL call center at the number below.''
so maybe i will try re-registtering

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.

I can't agree less my brother, i had to stop complaining, it's been frustrating. It's supposed to be a subsequent copy which shouldn't take 24hours. They just resumed from an internal strike they had. I'm optimistic I get it next week.
I've made searches but didn't get much.
Thanks ctemi, I'll check usnews for that.

Are you on full scholarship or part? If part, then the statement must cover your first year fees at least or even better, more. If you are on full, shocked then have some good money in there too, cos the VO might want to still see you have a plan B even if the scholarship is withdrawn.
My 2 cents wink

opad: 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.
try north Carolina a &t uni and Colorado school of mines.

My two cents....notify your international counselor you are having difficulties booking a travel date, but u will be in school soon. travel to the states after the 3rd of January, so you don't flout the rule that says "students shouldn't come to the states 30 days before school resumes". Its better to be safe than sorry. Once you get to the states, initiate I-20 transfer immediately. I-20 transfer is a fast process; it is only tedious if your school wants to punish you and not release u. Finis!

You should also go with your Ets confirmation mail. Writing materials would be provided at the venue. You only go into the test room with those.

Not really. Everything's in order. Go ahead with your embassy stuff. Afterwards, you renew your passport before travelling out. Wishing you the best of luck.

Certainly not. It's strictly 2 years multiple entry visa for Nigerians if you're applying from home, while Chinese is 1 year and Indians are 10 years depending on your application status. Aren't you applying from home? Where are you right now?
