Hi House

I'll have my interview at the end of the month. My uncle with the same surname is only willing to provide me his U.K Bond account statement for the last 6 months.

Will this be enough to convince the VOs?

This is just full of self Flattering Platitudes... What's your point exactly, that you took no Standard Exam, and went to Walter Carrington in your Christmas cloth ... Typical of the average Nigerian.... First started by belittling people's attire... Now Journey to the Constitution state in peace

Hi guys, I need some clarification about an issue .


I went for us visa interview and was denied mid last year. I wanted to schedule another appointment immediately so I can meet up with the date of resumption on my i-20.

So I sent a guy the visa application fee (he was referred by my aunt as someone good in visa stuff) to help me schedule an appointment because at a time there were no interview dates.

At the end he ended up saying there were no dates and I couldn't go for a second interview.

I moved on to other things and didn't ask him about it again till I saw him recently and I asked for a refund of the money I paid to his account.

He said the money is gone that he paid the visa fee and logged it into my account.

I don't understand what he means by that. I simply asked how come I wasn't booked for interview?
So I wanna ask if it's possible to pay for visa fee and log it into an account without a visa appointment with a VO

kCatalyst:

Graduated with a degree in Microbiology, 2015
Refused study visa 3 times in Canada and the last refusal was March 2019.
This was my first application to the US, University of New Haven. Masters in chemistry for winter 2020
No Gre
No TOEFL
No IELTS
Sponsor: Uncle with different surname
Interview time: 6:45am. Lagos,

I got to the embassy around 5:25am, I saw lot of people already, some even dressed like they just woke up from sleep and some looked like they were just going to greet the VO who is their relative hahahahaha, NOTE: please you must dress well and look smart, imagine you are going for an interview in a bank, how will you dress? not necessarily suit which looks too formal and common. I wore a well starched collarless coffee brown long-sleeves tucked in my light brown chinos trouser with a suede brown shoe. Please don't cut your hair a day to interview, do it like 3 days to, the looks is different. I even did facial massage, use cucumber to remove eye bags and i will drinking lots of water to have white eyes and hydrated skin. I prepared all round sha. I went in well equiped.

After I did all the bio metrics stuff, I finally entered the interview hall, I was consciously looking for the black american ladies people talked about here but I didnt see them. All VOs were white male. I was interviewed by a young VO in window 1, the window by the entrance door and he approved 4 persons before me but questioned them alot.

VO: Good morning
Me: Hi Good morning, good to see you (cheerfully)
VO; Good to see you too ( with a surprise look)
VO; passport and i20
Me: sure (gave him). He typed for few mins
VO: Where are you going to
me: I am going for a research masters degree in chemistry with conc. in drug discovery chemistry at the UNH, Connecticut.
VO: why this schoool
Me: A lot of reasons made me choose UNH but for the purpose of this interview I’ll enumerate just 4;
Firstly, I am very keen and interested in research; and I have a passion for cancer treatment, the chemistry department is currently conducting a research in collaboration with Yale University Scientist and cancer center. This research is focused on laboratory synthesis of natural product and their analogues, polyoxygenated and heterocyclic compounds for the design of drug molecules like antibacterial and anticancer chemotherapeutic agent. The motivation is to discover and develop new approaches, new vaccines and new drug delivery systems and integrating them with experiment into chemical materials like green catalyst and cancer drug to improve survival rate of adult diagnosed with leukemia. (cut in)

VO: How many university did you apply to
ME: Western Illinois University, Western Michigan University, Kalamazoo, Tennessee Technological University, Cookeville, Memorial University of Newfoundland, Canada.

VO: who is you sponsor
ME: my uncle
VO: what does he do
ME: He is a renowned financial economist and the chief financial officer and partner of the bleep and treasurer of the bleep bleep.
VO: do you have your reciprocacy fee here?
VO: yes i do
the rest was history

I noticed the VO kept reading my D120 form in his system, NOTE: what you fill in your D120 form is very important and it determines your approval or refusal already, the interview seems to, just come and confirm perhaps with evidence what is on your D120 form. Please fill your form online yourself like i did and screen shot or write important information like dates and figures on a paper so you wont forget after you had submitted your form.

Mehn I fasted and prayed oh, even took 14 days to my interview off work. Miracles are real, if not for anything it boosted my confidence and i was alert. I knew who ever will interview me will approve me.
Dont talk too fast or too slow, demonstrate with your hands and use a passionate expression on your face like I did for study of cancer, because its killing our people everyday

Prepare your transcript and act it like home video. I felt like an actor rehearsing for a shot.

God is the ultimate joor, nobody can tell me otherwise. Its my experience.

REMEMBER: Pray it into existence and work it into existence. God bless you all.

US Visa Interview Denied.

Heres's my transcript.... Please advise.

WHY ARE YOU GOING TO US?
For a masters degree in accounting at mtsu

Have you paid your sevis fee?
Yes

What would this degree do for you?
It would enable me achieve my long-term goals. Which is to… [cuts me off}

What are your long-term goals?
To establish my own accounting and consulting firm here in Nigeria as I would gain knowledge of US Accounting standards, tax laws and systems which will give me a competitive edge over my peers here in Nigeria.

Why mtsu?
Beside the fact that I was given scholarship, mtsu has robust curriculum as I am to take some prerequisite courses on US accounting principles, auditing & tax laws also they have cpa courses embedded in their program. This aligns with my desire to take the cpa exams upon the completion of my masters as cpa requires that you have a certain credit hour before you can take the exam.

Who is going to pay for the deficit?
My aunt [ I forgot to mention myself also]

What does your aunt do?
She a business partner to several telecom companies in Nigeria.+

How is she related to you?
She’s my uncle’s wife sister

He also asked why I was given the scholarship.... My response was that because of the my undergrad GPA which is 3.87 of 4
He also asked if I was married
His last question was if I had traveled out of the country before and I said no

Good Day Hard working Nigerian Youths...

I've done a lot of search on schools that offers Agric Economics.

But I'd appreciate it if anyone that has knowledge about schools with good funding in master agriculture will share with me, I am sure I have not covered all schools in USA.
Intended course of study is Agric/Applied/Resource Economics
CGPA is 3.92 of 5.0 (B.Agric)
Taking GRE soon

Thank you guys... Keenly waiting on this information
