Big mess, I wonder what happened. World remit is relatively cheap, those African stores charge too much money that's why I hardly use them

You can send money through boss revolution, pin-express. Just be patient and walk through the protocol. It's for your safety

I think usually, there is this charges being paid using the inter switch. I did not go through that so it may be hard for me to give a quick answer.
Not all Nigerian cards. Some banks have not lifted the ban on international transactions but I know of GTB and stanbic, they work pretty well.
First bank will charge a higher rate.

Visa approved this morning! And I honestly didn't expect how it turned out. I wasn't asked the generic "Why this school?Why this course? etc." kind of questions. Safe to say I just freestyled and didn't exactly prepare my answers. Transcript would follow soon!

Special thanks to Imperiouxx, Bigfrancis21, Sirriddy, Femi321, Dicapino, and infact everyone that's contributed to the progressiveness of this thread one way or the other. It has all begun in praise!

Modified: VISA TRANSCRIPT

Congrats...

Finally am here with my testimony special thanks be to almighty God the one on the throne.
I want to start by narrating the ugly experience I had with some criminals called Nigeria Police at CMS immediately I alighted at CMS I decided to take Okada as there was no time on my side as the Okada man who carried me was about to enter the road leading to Victoria Island I was double-crossed by some non-uniformed four men and asked the Okada man to pack his byke. Guess what? Their target was me. They requested me to come down from the byke which I did. Next thing I heard is we are Police can we aee your file I gave to the my well packaged envelops.They started asking me all sorts of rubbish questions when they were scanning through my documents. I pleaded them that I don't have time for all these questions as my interview was scheduled for 7:15am hmmmm I felt momentarily sick but suddenly God's wisdom enveloped me and I quickly sighted a soldier passing on the other side of the road I immediately ran to him explaining my conditions as God will have it he listened across the road with me and confronted the quadruple idiots called Police initially they started brandishing there ID card that they are Nigeria Police. After the Officer finished listening he ordered them to bring all my documents for his sake which they did and I carefully went through it and confirmed if they were complete and collected my passport from one of their most irrational idiots thanked the soldier man very well boarded the same Okada that was stand by and left. God will continue to bless Nigeria army as they care for the Citizens
Finally the interview here
SUN: Good morning
VO: Good morning
VO: Please your passport
SUN: Quickly passed it to her
VO: What is your study programme?
SUN: Am going in pursuit of Masters degree in Mechanical Engineering.
VO: Of what benefit is it to your work.
SUN: It is a research course on Computational Fluid Dynamics which is needed in my company series of inviscid flow analysis and solution
(At this point she was just nodding her head for my mind I be like say this woman don enter my boat finally)
VO: Who is sponsoring?
SUN: I quickly replied my elder brother
VO: She started typing fast and furiously for up to one minutes that looked like one hour my ears were itching for good news already and suddenly she singled out a paper and said your visa has been approved go to your designated centre for collection. Thank you
SUN: Thank you too.

Please if you are going to the US Embassy Okada is the worst mistake you will make to enter because it seems they work hand in hand with the Police. If you not driving or not going with a Cab it is safer to enter a bus.
Get yourself prepared from home by arranging document well also don't listen to all those miscreants at the embassy be yourself and be confident and you will get it.

I declare today and days to come for those who are going for theirs from this family and thread that God will give them the glorious victory in Jesus name. Amen.

The bus ride can be paid using your credit card, one can go to the sites of gotobus.com, greyhound.com or megabus.com. The ticket for gotobus was the cheapest last time I checked for my destination though. It's best to book ahead of your intending transit day.

you suppose lie down make all of us dash u better lashing one after the other. Even with the successes being recorded here, you still come F-up. Abiii u been dey luk dat chic b00ty soteh u come confuse.
Well, first of all I dey vex with u cos u didn't practice many transcripts here. If u had practiced some transcripts you would have seen so many answers to dat question. Its a straight forward question. Almost all transcripts here carry that question. Secondly you go dey define something give the VO. Why couldn't u mention something like you came across an article from a professor in MSU and u got captivated by his work. Simple straight forward answers. These VOs need simple answers and not things you just cram.
Looking at your writeup, u said u r in ur late 20s. Certainly the VO will certainly ask you questions why you are embarking on anoda undergraduate degree when u already have one judging by ur age.
If u had come here to get some info, it would have helped. I think some gurus can contribute, so dat u can fire on next week
