Hey šŸ¤ 


1. Your last paragraph made me believe that you are a genuine PhD candidate. By years long research, 95% of PhD students are doing it for the natural love for education and all of them prefers the doctorate degree to any achievements of life.

2. The department you applied to does not (presently) have fundings for incoming PhD applicants, and perhaps , the few professors in that department grin could not or have not secured research grants. Hence, they don't want you on PhD for now.

3. If the above is not the case then you do not have the required qualifications to get into their PhD. ** If you are very certain of your academic qualifications, then don't accept the Msc offer. Look out for other Public Reaearch Universities .

Whenever I have the bandwidth, I would come here and address fully about home ties.

Don't mind those racoons telling you, you need have landed property, billions, business, wife, kids to prove home ties.

There are several factors that a visa officer is looking out for.
1. Are you a genuine student who is going to the US to school and not for any other purpose the visa doesn't serve?
2. When such questions as "What do you intend to do after studies" is pretty much your home tie. US embassy in so many occasion do not even ask you for a single document. Here they are expecting you to state what you'll do after studies. Response like this would take away your immigrant intent "I intend to return to Nigeria and do x and x or I intend to Nigeria to continue with my present company on x and x capacity."
3. Remember that F-1 is a non-immigrant visa and the Visa Officer is there to look out if you are going to abide by your visa class, meaning they expect that after your studies you have plans of leaving the US or returning to Nigeria.
4. Visa interview on a good day do not even last more than 3-5 mins. I can tell mine didn't last more than 3 mins as only 3 questions was asked, now what time does the visa officer start accessing if you have billions saved, landed property, businesses etc.
5. The visa officers are addressing and adjudicating based on their discretion.

I don't have much time at the moment, but I'll be devoting 30 mins every weekend to shed more lights on interview questions.

Please, stay the hell away from Agents on this thread. Stay away, they are all hungry peasants
lol You just reinforced some of the points made by the ā€œracoonsā€. One size doesnā€™t fits it all in terms of showing home ties. Either by having a good job, a family in Nigeria or whichever way, you need to show ties to Nigeria.


At end of they itā€™s still at the discretion of the VO, You might be jobless, single and still get approved.

No, that's not what he is talking about. He also never said Dangote owns Nigeria. So don't attempt changing what he said out hate for Nigeria. What he said is; change your dollars to naira (that's is you have any) before Dangote refinery products hit the market which will expectedly bring down the dollars.
It baffles me how people only rejoice when itā€™s negative news when it comes to Nigeria. Why will you hates your own country to that extent.

To update my new DS-160 with correct information, what do I need to do? Should I just go ahead and fill another DS-160 or what?
You should fill another DS-160, and update application ID on F1-Visa.

Hello everyone!

My name is Adeolu, I'm new here and also quite new to the graduate school application process. I applied to 3 schools in the US which include Georgia Institute of Technology, Georgia State University, and Illinois State University. I recently got an admission offer from Georgia Tech but I am confused about the next step forward.

Out of the 3 schools I applied to, Georgia Tech is my most preferred option but it doesn't come readily with funding. From the letter I got, I read that you have to source the funding yourself as a master's student.

Can I accept the offer from Georgia Tech and later abandon it if I get a fully funded offer from the other schools I applied to(I've not gotten an admission decision from them yet)?

If I accept Georgia Tech's offer what exactly is the next step I'm meant to take, especially in looking for funding?
I don't have any sponsor and I am new to the whole process. Please what are the necessary steps I should start taking now that can help me move forward in this journey?

Thank you and God bless you!
Sure!

I wrote about the bolded in the link below two years ago.

https://www.nairaland.com/6821682/experience-nigerian-ladies-west/2#107097872

In truth, there is a subset of women who are playing it safe and won't entangle with a new immigrant, because, unlike men, women's mistakes are fatal, and might not be corrected (eg being older and a single mom in debt because a wicked man used you). That's a recipe for permanent singledom.

So I don't blame such women who just avoid new immigrants or men whom they think havent reached a particular level since it's unlikely these men are looking for someone to use.

The heart of (wo)man is wicked, and it's always advisable to play safe, rather than sorry.

Most importantly, the relational dynamic between someone who has something (let's call her Mary), and the other person who doesn't have much (let's call him John), is that Mary has the responsibility to give out more.

Since Mary and John both understand that John doesn't have, Mary will keep helping John, giving him, in the hope that if John is in her shoes, he will do the same.

In such an unequal dynamic, it is hard for Mary to know John's true intent, since it's in Johns's interest to be on his best behavior and keep playing along. The virtue of John has not and cannot be tested in these circumstances.

It is the same dynamic with men who just sponsor girls in uni, and are heartbroken later on because such an unequal dynamic only favors the person that has nothing.

When the virtue of John's will is put to the test, is when he has leveled up and doesn't need Mary anymore. This is a risky game the average woman will not take, and women by default, know these dynamics very well. Women are far socially smarter than the average man.



This is deep. Youā€™re definitely a smart dude.

Well, a male classmate who happens to be in Germany told me the exact reason why Nigerian men often go for Nigerian women, and the reason he gave is because of crime!!! He explained to me that for example there is a high level of tolerance of domestic violence from Nigerian women but white women don't do that. Secondly Nigerian men who are into crime or plans to go into crime in future are the ones that value Nigerian women because they will never report you to the authorities, but no matter how small a crime is a white woman must report you. On the other hand good Nigerian women always avoid Nigerian men abroad because most of them will implicate you in one crime or the other. I told him that if not that I am already married before traveling to Germany for the first time I would have married a German woman just like him, and take her to any country I reside in because his assertions are true.
. Which assertion is true? Someone used thesame brush to paint all your country men without any data to back it up, and you claim it is true. Have you met all the Nigerians in Germany?
