So its not possible for 50k
Anyway pls do you know their address?
Thank you boss.

I had the same doubts.
I was convinced to register with them.
I did, they will even give you the textbook your require and if you're able to attend their classes, that's thrown in pro Bono for you

Respect Sir,
Baba i beg kindly recommend some of these schools that have these features to me.as in im also a doc looking out for such.

Your Supremacy Sir!!
TWoods:


I beg to differ. As a doc, he has plenty of opportunities. He can get into molecular biology, translational medicine, pathology, pharmacology, epidemiology and public health... phd programs in top tier schools here. He is almost guaranteed to get 100% fellowships (once accepted, you get a free ride to school and get paid at least $28,000 per year in stipends)... he can do this for 2 years, and get a masters - while sitting for his residency exams. He can then cross over to a residency program. Why waste your time with a cheap degree when you can get a solid degree in an ivy league that will make your residency resume even more attractive? A lot of US medical students take time off to obtain masters/phd programs in research that really boost their resumes. That's why you find a lot of MD/Phd dual degree holders in big league university hospitals - they are doctors that are also heavily involved in research. My own brother did this before starting his residency and it was of tremendous benefit to him. I am very reticent to this mentality of just looking for the cheapest path of least resistance to everything when you can certainly strive for excellence.

I would argue that bro should think about what specific area he wants to specialize in for his residency, then seek out researchers working in that area, contact them directly with his plans.

Just apply for a Canadian visit visa through CIC online. You don't need to appear at any embassy/consulate..It's usually a quick process.

TWoods:


Nothing special. Contact the Canadian consulate (i know there is one in Buffalo, NY). They used to let you mail in your passport and application but that was about a decade ago. Go online and read the instructions. Just in case you're not aware, even if your US visa has expired, you are allowed to go to Canada and return to the US, so long as you weren't away from more than 30 days.

Wow! Thanks guys! I really should plan for a week vacation sometime. I’ll look thru the process!

Well, from what I gathered I think we can start filling it, and make arrangements to pay our SEVIS fee. So once the document comes..it'll be easy to book appointment. Can we talk on whatsapp.. I need to ask some stuffs


Niklausakins, k199192 is this your first time applying for F1? You guys can start to fill the ds-160 cos you have all the info you would need. You can contact me for help if you want. chlsgt75 at Gmail dot com

Respect Ma.
Kindly suggest to me any of those cheapest schools.
I will be glad to apply.
Thanks

LagosismyHome:


Depending on your plans.....if you need the masters or phd just as a stepping stone to later move on to residency for me ooo.... there no need paying that money for ivy league . I go to the cheapest school as most people i have seen with that plan never end up using the degree

205 yes is the correct fee through ets ....however some agent such as By matfit are given discount vouchers at ets hence they can register student for exactly the same exam at 50k ..... so yeah very real

Check mph programs in texas as an example or check google mph and sort based on price but very few are funded

So if you need funding then the phd advice earlier by Twood is a better option

Hello house, I had my undergraduate degree about twenty years ago and didn't bother going back to school, but now I want to go back for my masters, do I stand a chance of getting a study visa? My bachelors degree was Bachelor of Agriculture and now I want to go for MS in Agronomy or Crop and Soil science all Agriculture fields, but I'm a business lady, running my own business, please house what do you think? I've also worked in some administrative roles in the past, should I go for MBA instead? But I really prefer Agriculture

Your UG was Agriculture why going for MBA? Ur UG, what you r doing presently, and ur intend MS must be related. That's one of the key things they look at. PM me chlsgt75 at Gmail dot com

It means that you have a good chance of getting a job after completion of your degree and the degree is hot cake.

To the glory of God, VISA approved this morning at Lagos consulate, I was interviewed by the guy in window 3, 7:00am... The guy is a born questionnaire
The interview was little bit long and though but God took control and crowned my effort

Vo: good morning
Me: morning sir
Vo: Why are you going to USA?
Me: I'm going for my MBA with a concentration in Management information systems at Lincoln University California
Vo: how do you know about this school?
Me: it was recommended to me by my dad's friend who's an alumnus of the school and doing wonderful well is his business, and I visited the school website where I found out its a good school for me.
Vo: How many schools do you apply to?
Me: 3 schools, LU, UCM and university of North Carolina and LU and UCM admitted me.
Vo: Why LU and not UCM?
Me: LU is a business oriented institution that provides necessary academic foundation for their students to be competent in their field, and it also has a student faculty of ration 20:1 which allows students to learn fast and also give them easy access to their professors.
Vo: why are you going for MBA?
Me: it will equip me with the required skills to manage my dad' business efficiently when I return to Nigeria
Vo: why MIS?
Me: can't even remember the answer I gave to this
Vo: how do you intend to apply the skills aquire from this program to your dad business?
Me: i didn't prepare for this, but with confidence I compose one big story about record keeping and workers interaction.
Vo: what application do you use for record in your dad company?
Me: Microsoft excel
Vo: what does your dad do?
Me: he's into Agriculture, livestock and crop production precisely
Vo: who's paying for your study?
Me: my brother, my dad's first son
Vo: what does he do?

Visa denied this morning by the guy in window 9

Vo: Good morning
Me good morning sir
Vo: why Concordia among all the schools in USA
Me: I chose Concordia because it's MBA gives me the opportunity to have dual degree by taking more than one concentrations and I was impressed by the corporate experience of their faculties such as Stacy Stinson and Tom Scholz a previous CFO at Harley Davidson and Risk analyst at Goldman Sachs respectively. (At this point he was interrupted by another lady)
Vo: Sorry I kept u waiting. So when did u graduate
Me January 2013
Vo: what course
Me: bsc economics
Vo: school
Me: Oau
Vo: any standardised test?
Me: no as it was not required by the school. My admission was based on my undergraduate transcript and work experience
Vo: since your Nysc, what have. U been doing?
Me:. I finished my Nysc in 2015 and since then I av been working at bleep which is a firm of professional accountants and we render audit service, tax and financial advisory. And I av rose from the level of trainee accountant to the level of tax consultant
Vo: why do you think this is the best time to go for your MBA:

Me: I feel this is the best time so as to equip myself with the necessary business and finance skills I will be needing for my mid managerial level and MBA finance at this point will lay a solid foundation for my CFA exam which I want to start in 2020 when am back in the country.

Vo: how many schools did u apply to?
Me: 2. Other one is Lincoln.

Vo: am sorry we cannot approve Ur visa at this time. Refer to the blue paper for the reason.

Mehn, I just felt like there is an app that can be used to determine genuineness of students.

Now I know it takes lot of courage to come here and post Ur denied transcript

Your critiques are highly welcome.
