Good day everybody.

I asked a question sometimes ago, the answer was given. I really appreciate.

However, my sister who has been in USA for 2 years promised to file/pettion for me to come over to USA.

My question now is. How long does it take for me to get to USA assuming she file/pettion for me next year January?

Also, what are the requirements during the VISA interview?

No problem at all...sept 2018 is 2 years ahead. If you are in the US when it expires then you have Nigeria embassy house in Dc, Newyork or Atlanta to go renew

You have to contact your school and get a new letter of admission, that will state the next available start date.
Then re-apply for student visa.


The next admission is in January, can I reapply then or must I wait 6 months?

You do not have to wait six months.
You can apply for Jan. intake. Just get a new admittance letter from your school.

Abeg Who knows anything about UNI of South Alabama? An Nairalander there? undecided
that's a good link http://colleges.usnews.rankingsandreviews.com/best-colleges/south-alabama-1057 , i was there in the summer for research, a beautiful coastal city. Searching for schools in the US depends on your course of study, how often do your department get funding opportunities for research. for example, Georgia Institute of Technology is known for its world class engineering programs so it is better than University of Washington Seattle, WA which is known for its world class primary health care programs?! so you see the analogy there are a lot of good schools but some have better strengths for different programs

its processing time is always indefinite if it's for US citizen/permanent resident filling for either brother or sister, but filling for parent, spouse or child under 21 is in a space of 5 months. so if i were you i would want to sit tight and hope that statuesque changes. best of luck

What visa is your sister on ...because if she only been in the USA for only 2 years then its most likely she not a citizen yet.... so not sure she can file for u next year

so quickest case she married to a citizen for those 2 years if yes she might still have like 3 years before Citizenship then before she can file for u

After lets say 3 years she file for you,if you are over 21 ...then siblings is like over 10years .... The waka for petition siblings filing is a long thing except you mean apply for visiting visa for non immigrant visa and not immigrant visa

You add to what you have filled before and you don't need to tamper with what you filled before because it's on their records or database

Don't let that get you confused because it's more than six months and when you get to US you can renew your passport at the Nigeria consulate there or you come back home to get it renew

Hmm ..I want to really commend the people holding up this thread .

I just jammed the thread today and I must say I have really missed out and it was seeming impossible to begin to read from the beginning so while I read ,I will ask questions here, whoever finds this post of mine should pls respond.

I need a advice from the gurus in this thread,pls also pardin my ignorance as my questions might seem a bit lay.

I was a victim of life in 2013,which resulted in an extra year for my degree in Nigeri which ought to have completed in 2015(my mates are just abt to be mobilised in december.) But school is currently on strike since the beginning of the year putting my study on hold. So maybe it is high time I start thinking in another direction,no one can tell...I am studying civil Engrng currently. but the truth is my passion had changed since my early 200levl days as my strong zeal for computer and online stuffs has really developed that I feel I should start allover and get a degree in the I.T world as I don't find my self practising civil at all. I am into graphics,web and programming etc and wish to delve more...

My Questions

I need Advice...

As I have a year or more to be cleared of C.O(note our school has been on strike,no one knows when it will be called of ,then my extra semester before I am clear for graduation)

--->Pls is it possible I get admitted as a transfer student in any of this us universities in my case

-->I have been reading about TOEFL,Gre...which is applicable in my case..I have a good G.P too 4. Plus

-->Is it possible for one to sponsor himself if he his capable(I am a freelancer and also have a registered business) ,and how does one answer such questions during visa interviews

-->What are the recommended Universities to study I.T related courses.


I have other questions ,but it seems I am typing to much already, so I will try and read about it.


Pls. People of good heart assist your brother here..
God bless you as you do so.

Sorry about the extra CO and years spent because it's part if life and make God help us all.

It is possible to start afresh as a fresh man student or transfer student but you will need to evaluate your Cgpa with WES if you want to apply as a transfer student. Also you can wait for your school to resume back and clear yourself and use your 4plus cgpa to apply for masters

Since you want to cross to IT, as for undergraduate i will suggest you write both toefl and SAT then with good score you can use it to apply for scholarship either partial or full scholarship and GRE is for those going for Msc

Yes its possible and if you are self sponsor just get ready to prove to VO the job you are doing and amount you make monthly that can finance your school as well as who will continue to run you business when you leave for your study.

You will need to check the school you want to apply to and see their requirements since each school policy differ from each other

I hope this help and answer your questions
