Good afternoon everyone,
I am going for Fall 2019, I want to process my I-20 and I need a good advise on which school is best to choose.

I have been admitted to these schools with no GA,
Columbia University ($68k tuition)
University of Baltimore ($42k tuition), and
Salisbury University ($30k tuition).
However I was denied in January using University of Baltimore.

What course is this for .......... Also which one can you pay easily as well

As you already know, I'll personally advice you to remove Columbia University from the list. I'll advice you stick with Baltimore or opt for Salisbury. That you were refused twice says nothing about your school, but maybe because of the tuition. You can still get your visa on Baltimore I-20. But it would have been more favorable if you get a scholarship of at least small amount, or a GA before you reapply. Why not pick other schools that are more affordable and try secure scholarship? I know it's not easy, but you could still look for other schools and apply, and yes, for fall 2019.

I will like to share the story of a student with you. She was refused once. na so she vex and relax. Close to a year after, she repackaged herself, get a new school, get GA, and reapply. Boom! She got the visa the second time. This was January this year. She's 32! We had mock together and it was one of the smoothest interview experiences shared with me.

Deefav:




Yes, I applied to Alcorn State University. I'm yet to get a reply though. Have you gotten one?

Hi everyone, I'm new here but I've been a silent reader for months.

None yet. PM

It is for Negotiation and Conflict resolution in Columbia and Baltimore but Conflict Analysis and Dispute Resolution in Salisbury.

Baltimore and Salisbury is affordable.

Can you afford Columbia university fees? It's an ivy league university and can easily get you a visa if funds are sufficient

Milkshakes01:

I think u should post d transcripts of the previous denial interviews as this will remove guessing from d advice people here will provide.

It looks like u repeated d same mistake twice, let's try to stop that.

And yes, I agree with time2win, Columbia is your best bet but d money no be here.

greetings!!!!!
I have posted a question here before, but I got no reply, I am here with another one.
I have got admission already with close to 80per cent funding, Is it wise I apply for GA?
IF yes how can I go about it
gurus, please help

Good idea, the Ivy League status may help her easily secure the visa. $68k =24.3M. If sponsor have thriving income and balance, this may be the next option.

Time2win:

lol. You want 100%. Check the scholarship and financial aid section of graduate admission page. You should see "Graduate Assistantships" there. Contact the person in charge and explain of your interest for a position. Submit the application if there's any.

The way d first question was crafted was not clear. U said u made 4 applications but only one has answered u. What do u mean by answered u? When crafting questions, sometimes u need to think about the people reading it.

Your first question is connected to your second question, clarify the first one if u can.

But yes, u can still ask for the GA from a Prof.

my bad, sorry about that .
Three schools have offered me admission out of four schools I applied to.
One gave me like 80% percent funding. It is not that I am greedy but I just want to stand a better during my interview

Depends on what your long term plans are , the recruitment prospect, if you plan to come back to nigeria and most importantly if you have relevant work experience
