Is this on the US embassy website?

Yes, type this on Google search "when can you apply for US student visa".

I don't want to put a link before antispambot bans me

'An F-1 student visa for the USA can be issued up to 120 days in advance of your course of study start date. You will only be able to enter the US with an F-1 visa 30 days before your start date'.

Quoted from Google.

The 120days applies to when your VISA can be issued not when you can visit the embassy for interview.

Do people visit the embassy to be denied?, your visa is issued when the visa is approved smiley smiley.

Nope, you are not getting it. There is a difference between an approved VISA and Issued VISA.

A VO can approve but another person is charged with issuing. When your VISA is approved by VO you are going to be on AP for few days before your status change to issue. You are actually talking about when to visit the embassy. You can visit the embassy and your VISA is approved ahead of time outside of 120days to your program start date but you can only pick your VISA within those 120days.

Now, get one thing clear not all VISA approved by the VO is issued.

Thanks a lot for the reply. But boss, I’m yet to even submit my application for the Spring, I’m still left with my Transcript submission before i started experiencing the error. I’m applying for Computer Sci bro. How should I go about it now Sir? Because aside the app fee that I’ve paid, I don’t want to go through the application stress again. Pls help out!!
RealTrump:


Well, I am applying to one PhD in that school. Everything is complete including recommendation, just to pay n submit.

And yes, their system was down for about a week in December. But it was smooth after that.

Let's go over this. If u applied for spring 2020, n now you want to transfer d application to fall. That should not be possible going by their words. in essence u r trying to submit a new application n they already said all previously unsubmitted applications will be nulled by Dec 5th. I think you need a new application for fall.

But if d problem is that u are still getting that error message about their system upgrade when u try to apply, u type d program u are applying to here, I will try to see if it is same on my end.

But, the best solution is that u need to grab a hold of their administrative assistant. The grad cord no get that kind time. The completed file is already with admin, they just need to agree that your file will be shown to professors for fall review instead of spring. This this have been an easy thing if d admin assistant was well aware beforehand.

Once u submit your application. You can't go back n say u now want to "transfer" to fall. Nope.

I’ve paid the 70$ for the App fee. All I’m left with is just Transcript submission. It was WES that even delayed me.
So what do you think boss?
I also applied there and everything was okay from my end . I got admission.

Hi great people. Once again, thanks for all your efforts in assisting others. Please I have a question.

Do University of Delaware requires TOEFL from Nigerians? There was no specific countries stated on their website.

Please anyone with experience in this school or knows someone in the school.

I got this reply from them 3 days ago. Unfortunately their reply was too late for me, I had already moved on.

I won't say you're too late anyway. There are schools that have their priority deadlines in January, February or even March. You just have to do a lot of research and email the graduate coordinator to be sure they have funding.
for fall or for spring, just to know, thanks

Hello Nairaland. I’m a pretty new member in the house and I have motive to traveling to the USA for my msc

I studied Economics for my undergraduate with a CGPA of 3.48/5.00 (69.6%) and I’m planing to go for my masters in economics. I finished my Nysc 2016 and I haven’t been opportuned to have any working experience.
Gurus in the house I need your advice of the following questions

1)Is there a chance to get a school with full funding or at least part ? As I have searched online for schools that offers scholarships but most schools require 3.5/5.00 CGPA
2) What test do I have to write to process the admission

3) is it possible for me to get the student visa without a sponsor? Note; I’m a hustler I can try to raise some amount of money myself

I’m a newbie on here I will appreciate any advice and any form of help from anyone. Pls feel free to email me at krose00118@gmail.com
Thanks for taking your time to read through. I look forward to hear from you soon

Try to do GRE and TOEFL and you may do a WES(World Evaluation Services) evaluation of your under-graduate Transcripsts. WES will evaluate your GPA to the US standard which is a 4.0 scale.

Good Day Guys! I be submitted all my application requirements for APSU, I’m just left with SOA since more than 3months now. All the ones (SOA) I’ve with me don’t / is yet to reach the required amount (13Mplus). My question now is that, can I write to school or ask the GA if it’s possible for them to proceed my admission decision. That I will provide the SOA after that. Actually, I’m even working to get it but it’s delaying me and I’m scared of missing out again because I missed out Spring 2020 due to the delay in my Wes evaluation.
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 15 by bamiDee1(m): 4:59pm On Jan 07, 2020
Please how long did it take WES to complete your evaluation and revert to you and the school you applied to?

Warm regards

I was unlucky with WES. I started my Wes journey June 24 or so and ended it Dec 03 or so. Very unlucky unlike many other guys whose own were not up to my ‘period of time’
