Just got into Dubai #chilling in a business lounge a swear I must be rich. A lot of rich people around grumbling about the economy , I just look them like fetty WAP. Anyways if you need dollars you can always exchange it at Travelexx at your airlines hub. I just withdrew $500 at #330 to a dollar. If you want to extract maximum value withdraw dirham from an ATM and convert over the counter.

Pls what's the daily atm withdrawal limit? I thought it was 300$. Info please

Hated everthing US when they denied me visa to attend OTC some years back. Applied from UK and was bounced at their London office. The chinko guy just messed me up for nothing. Was in the middle of my MSc then, on full scholarship and had no plan of stay in back in US but was told I had no ties. To marry when you are not ready na by force
I am seriously having a rethink......

No mind those yeye people but u cant blame them sha ......Those rejections among others is what they are using to Sustain the cost of running the Embassy building and operations tongue

Nothing do u , loads of people get rejected one time or the other ......E no even mean anything , aside from the initial disappointment. Once u weight your option if US go favor u , no make one Chinko man stop u oooooo . Never

what's the school name? JH is gingering me to send in application. That I stand a chance for full sponsorship. Another school I just contacted even offered to invite me over to have a feel of their facility and meet with the faculty.....at my expense!!! make e no be my application fee them de find!
Both schools require GRE.... omo I am not just cut out for such now....will sure pass if I get on with it.
I have just downloaded enough GRE materials online tho. Expecting to get some feedbacks this week as I intend pushing out 2/3 application only next week. waiting on your response as per ur school name.....no time!!!

University of Wisconsin - Stout. Are you going for MS or PHD? I doubt if that school offer the course in PhD. As per your visa delay, It's always difficult getting visa from another country other than your country of origin when you've not established some good and strong ties to your country of origin. But you can apply again bro.

Never knew it would be this high

I really doubt that out come. I hope S/he keyed in grades and units probably. Cos a CGPA of 3.51 came out as 3.2. ...now 3.25 coming to 3.21.
I Stand to be corrected.

Banned is a strong word ...........Banned or denied visa . They mean two different things.
if its "banned" then that problem is not going away anytime soon and can pop up at any trip to other embassies

That would depend on why the person in question was banned. Note that embassies do share some level of information. The US and Canada especially share a lot.

Well I will be writing the GRE soon though even if it not a requirement for the programme. What is 3.25/5 on a 4.0?

if 3.25:5 the
Q:4
therefore Q=3.25x4/5=2.6
Q=2.6

So 2.6 is the equivalent on a 4 point grade
Pls I stand to be corrected am just using normal mathematical approach but believe they have their own methods of evaluation

Hi peeps! Clarification needed.
When ones flight has two stops for instance when is going with \Etihad Airways and his stops are Lagos to Abu Dhabi, Abu Dhabi to Frankfurt and then Frankfurt to USA, does one need a transit visa in Frankfurt in order to by pass the immigration officers in Frankfurt Germany since the stop over is just for few hours (4-5 hours). Then can international students going for their students to US and has a two years visa take a one way flight to US.

international students going for their students to US and has a two years visa take a one way flight to US ............. This is begining to sound like a broken record . Yes and its been mentioned several times . If your course is more than one year you are allowed to take one way flight

Germany as long as you dont plan to leave the airport (pass through immigration) then u dont need a transit.. You would have to roam about in the airport and dont come out .... find your next boarding gate and wait there ....... If you want to come out of the airport to visit somebody in Germany (means u pass through immigration) then yes you need a regular tourist visa
