Goodmorning...
Pls I need an advice..

My case was put on hold this morning and I was told to send my financial document(statement of account) to them showing my sponsors name through DHL..

What was showing on the statement was his business name..

Pls who had successfully passed this stage before and pls what can/should I do

You mean at the US embassy ?

Ubah1:


You mean at the US embassy ?

Yes at the US embassy

AlterEnigma:



Yes at the US embassy

Its simple. They can't verify if your sponsor is the owner of the business account at that spot, reason they asked you to submit one showing his name. Just do as they have instructed

Plz on my ds-160 form, is there any part they asked of no of schools applied to and d ones that have rejected [quote author=justwise post=63156889][/quote]

Yes, am gonna do as instructed..

The issue now is Can banks change account names?

AlterEnigma:

no the bank is not going to change names ............ You either submit a bank statement with the owner's name showing how much is in his personal account or submit documents verifying that he is the owner of the business and how much access he has to the money

It never a good idea to use a company account as it can be hard to prove that money in there belongs solely for the owner use

No! They offered me a 20% scholarship. I got a better offer.

Gloryemo:
Are you saying no one on here has information on TAMUC, I like information from people who has passed through it or know anyone who has, sometimes it will state on website that TOEFL is needed whereas it is not in all cases and some are admitted without TOEFL. If we can all get information online, we won't be here, so please house answer pls

If its not needed it won’t be stated. Ofcourse you can get all information online, never give the information gotten here priority over your school’s website. The best source of credible information is your grad cord or dept secretary, send them emails.

Alright but please house, anyone applying to TAMUC or has been accepted for fall 2018 Please

Can you please share your transcript with us ?

Haryormeesey:


Can you please share your transcript with us ?

Before i start..
Note of Advice , which has been said here many times
Make sure you have genuine answers to most of the questions asked

While on the queue you'll obviously over hear one or two things

1. VO Asked a fellow why he's going for
pharmacy..
He said he wants to help people(right there, I knew
he didn't soji)
VO asked why do you want help people...
He said he cares for people...
I just stopped listening at that point cuz I wasn't
down for any negative energy

2. Pls and pls , As stated so many times here... When asked how you got to know about the school.. they dont want to hear msinus or internet ish..
Make sure you have a legit fellow who you heard about the school from..

VO asked this fellow how he got to know about the school and he called the name of a person.. the VO then told the guy to spell the name while he checked his database..
They have all this info on their server.. so be careful if you plan on using someone whose been through their system

3. Have read cases where people got away cuz they pretended not to be able to speak English.. you'll be surprised the VO attending to you knows how to speak Yoruba, igbo etc.. witnessed it today





So here my goes my TRANSCRIPT


VO: tell me about your program

Me: My program is in Masters in Chemical Engineering at Tamuk. It requires 24 credit hours .. 18hours in a major and 6hrs in a minor

VO: tell me about your academic background

Me: I did chemical engineering in my undergraduate (Vo cuts in: ooh chemical engineering , i said YES) and I graduated last year July.

VO: Why didn't you do NYSC

Me: I want to focus more on my education at this point and be done with it (he smiled at this point).

VO: so what will this degree do for you..
All this while he wasn't looking at me.. but after asking this question.. He stopped and looked at me

Me: I'll be bringing my U.S degree back to Nigeria to apply for jobs(started nodding his head) at P&G, GSK ( He was just looking me in the eye and leaning closer to hear more) chevron, shell to name a few because a U.S. degree has an excellent international reputation (kept on nodding And typing) which will make me a valuable asset and give me an edge over my colleagues (just kept on nodding and nodding) when I get back to Nigeria

Vo: how many schools did you apply two

Me: 2

Vo: what was the other one

Me: Lamar uni

VO: why Tamuk

Me: I almost choked here... I chose Tamuk basically for two major reasons. 1. they offer a concentration in renewable energy which is in line with my career goal of being a specialist in energy 2. They now have a natural gas dept which is combined with the chemical engineering dept and spearheaded by the same director. Dr. ******** whom I called and confirmed from

VO: whose sponsoring you

Me: my dad

Vo: what does he do

Me: he does this and that

Vo: let me see his statement..

Me: handed it over to him..

then he said they are not showing his name but business name...
showed him a reference letter that showed his name as the owner of the account.
Told him he's a sole proprietor of his business..

VO asked if he didn't have staffs he pays to cuz the money could be expenditures
Said No, just his PA and driver.. He handles everything himself..

Then he gave me back the statement to show him popc name cuz I said I can show him his name..
So I showed him his withdrawals on the accounts and he says he can see all that.. he just wants too see his own name on the title of the account..

Then he said I should either change the name on the account or transfer all the money to a new account with his name on it and follow some instructions on one white paper like that and send additional documents supporting the account through DHL to them and Gave me a case number

Then he returned my passport..





Personally the guy okay..
Na people way just dey go WINDOW 2 I pity..

The lady has no chills



MODIFIED: he asked if I took any standardised test.
Told him both GRE AND TOEFL
and also asked when i graduated

LOL!
I thought Lamar was the name of Khloe Kardashians ex-husband. Then "Tamuk" sounds like a place in Edo state. Didnt know they were schools in the U.S.
Guys, I think we shouldn't just be focusing on getting out of the country. I think we should do it strategically. Think about your employability after the program. There are many of the schools that have been mentioned here that's worse that Unilag, so whats the point of spending ticket and tuition money and going to all these dead schools?

at bold ............ i agree for some

but "Tamuk" is Texas A&M University-Kingsville . I dont know of this in particular but some of the A&M are good schools ie College station

Hi Guys please I need your advice.

folmus:

Cheers!

fomlus please reply you email, have PM you already. thanks

haba sister take am easy na. if you don't know TAMU-Kingsville, i am sure you don't know the other TAMUs in Texas. when you hear TAMUC (Texas A&M Commerce) you will say it sounds like a subject in secondary school; TAMUCS (College Station) sounds like a train station;TAMUCC (Corpus Christi) sounds like the name of a messiah.

everyone must not attend Unilag, that is why we also have Uni-Ibadan, Uni-Ilorin, Uniben etc...

Lol Those schools are still popular kind off and are not dead . There are some school names I see here and I marvel. Such names do not even appear on trustworthy rankings like the US News.

I dont think re-scheduling is allowed any longer. You might have to pay another Visa fee. But i will advice you buy like 1000naira credit and call the embassy first.

TheNightsKing:
If you've scheduled an appointment recently, please tell me if there are dates available in June at the Lagos Embassy. Thanks.

There are dates available even in May. This is 100% fact.

Gloryemo:
House please and please I need information. I applied to etsu for fall 2018, submitted everything in March, yet to get a decision from them.
I also want to apply to Texas a and m university commerce for masters in computer science, please hope they don't need TOEFL and I had a cgpa of 3.74 in my undergraduate degree in computer science, what is the US equivalent please.
Anyone currently in Texas a and m university commerce please....
Please gurus here, answer me please

All schools I applied to waived my English test even when it was stated as a requirement. I emailed the one that didn't waive automatically that I've had all my education in English language and they waived it. You could send an email to the grad coordinator but I think tamuc will waive it.

Thank you.
