Hello. Respect to my seniors herein, I have a question to ask, it might have been answered unknown to me but I do like to be pointed to that direction if the answer exist, Please for someone that has the zeal to study nursing in US, what's the process involve. which university should I direct my search to and what consideration should I pen down. thank you. please don't ignore

what's your highest certificate for now?

Sorelee:





i my view your visa transcript was not bad, but i think the reason for your delay was because you didn't write any standardized test. no standardized exams = POTENTIAL MIGRANT to most VOs[/b].
i will advice you prepare and write a standardized test and then you can file again.

Actually, all F-1 holders are potential migrants and they know this. No standardized test probably means not so serious about school.

I don’t think taking a test (for sole purpose of visa interview) is a good investment. He may never even be asked about it in his next interview. There are other parts he could sell, such as where he had the experience (assuming it’s a good brand).

first get an admit for a US school preferable A University (processes varies from institutions ), get your I20 from the school, pay your sevis fee, book an appointment with the US embassy or consulate, go for your interview and grab your visa. cheers

I guess what you're looking for are HBCUs (historic black colleges and universities). Some are Morgan State University, Towson University, North Carolina A and T University, Bowie State University (you can check it out but please do not apply nor bank on this school for admission) etc.

@Femi312, pls permit me to indulge him with your masterpiece.


There is this saying that says ''If we don't fight we have failed, but if we fight we can either fail or succeed''. So forget the tuition part for now and put in some work. First, you need to decide on the course you want to study, To save you some stress start from this website http://graddecision.org/ to know the application process, So step 1) Decide on the course you want to study 2) Search for schools using a)www.msinus.com (open this website with a laptop, you should see a list of school and ranking for some of the most common courses, you can start from there b)www.gradschools.com c)www.google.com (you can just type 'msc in bla bla in the us in google' d) www.usnews.com e) www.4icu.org . 3) check up the website of the schools you find, to see the requirements. most schools will require GRE and some will require both gre and toefl . 4) Register for standardize exam and take it. You can register for gre as soon as you are ready and prepared to take the exam. Its done online at www.ets.org. You can also get all the information you need about the exam on the website. You will get adequate materials to prepare for the exam in this dropbox I createdhttps://www.dropbox.com/sh/t9ot6d07hp1lkm7/AADL_dTihjEvNBRCBsmAcoXja?dl=0 

TOEFL is an English test required by some US universities. though, some schools waive due to the fact that Nigeria is an Anglophone country.
For toefl, all you need are the speaking noteful videos in the link below, the ets toefl guide is enough to ace the exam for other sections. Just download the toefl ETS Guide from there website and the simulation test.
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/45tvc3ifi8wh8sh/AACXR5j6l3nsWK8vZx5P28TVa?dl=0 

As for the Tuition, if you have good results (GRE, GPA, Toefl), SOP and LOR; US schools do offer assistanship to graduate students. This can either be Research Assistant, Teaching Assistant or Administrative Assistant. Depending on the school, if you get an assistantship, your Tuition will be waived and you will also be paid a monthly stipend that can take care of your living expenses. One advice, once you shortlist schools, send emails to the grad cord of the schools and ask specific questions relating to that course and funding opportunities, be very explicit.

Lastly, there are basically 2 admission session in the US, Spring (Jan) and Fall (August). Schools admit more students in Fall, so Its advisable you plan towards Fall 2018. If you plan to resume in fall 2018, make sure you submit all your application documents before ending of Dec 2017. If you don't give it a trial, you will never know.My philosophy in life is to always do my part, with that I don't get to regret later. Above all, if you believe in God,pray to him..if not, good for you.

@Femi312, pls pe

You are free to do the lord's work. Well done. But for how long will you continue to give them fish instead of making them learn how to fish?

Of course they are. Some people prefer to apply to them because they have less strict requirements for admission and can be sometimes easier to get into.

You can apply to Bowie State University but do not bank only on that school for admission because they have a high disappointment rate.

tizentos:
Very true,those indians have good support system for graduate education funding unlike Nigeria.

Nevertheless, the job prospect of studying in Stanford is very high for EE. Although the repayment period is around 5-10 years(for Stanford's foreign student loan) and 15-20 years for mpower financing but its better to study without the burden of thinking about outstanding debts.

Moreover,the deadline for admission offer accept/reject is mid-April. Till then,I just have to chill, hoping I get funding from other schools I applied to.

Of course, A specialty is a secret to success in the US. I cant go to MIT and study English, but I would go to Auburn(the biggest sports institution in the US I stand corrected) to study sports science. I studied Geological engineering, its only about 10 schools in the entire US that incorporates Civil engineering, mining, and geology into one program. It doesn't mean a person that went to the University of Illinois—Urbana-Champaign for the EE program wouldn't get the same job as you did, its all about job market upon graduation.

bruv he said he is a jjc pls put him through and let him understand. Others thinking the same will also benefit from ur explanations

The rest of us did not magically acquire this information from heaven. We were once jjcs who took the time to study up. The problem isn't that he/she is a jjc, this is simply an excuse for being lazy. Visa information is available on google.

You start by reading from page 1. You really aren't "new" here... so please stop the lying. You registered on this forum as far back as 2013. In that time, you've had over 100 posts on the food, music, politics and family threads. You also have had the time to put up 5 topics... but for some strange reason, when it comes to information pertinent to your future, you're suddenly "new" here?

GA comes with a full tution waiver in WIU, but sometimes IT depends on if IT is a full time GA or not. It all depends on which, Full time or 2/3 full time GA gets more than 2/3

See the amount below

Graduate Assistant (GA) $943/month $629/month
Research Assistant (RA) $943/month $629/month
Teaching Support Assistant (TSA) $943/month $629/month
Teaching Assistant (TA) $1086/month $724/month.
