Oh, thank you for letting me know this. To be in a safer place, I guess it will be nice one also have all of the basic requirements at hand before applying.
I hope you aim for 340.
Good luck.
Just like he said, it's a competition, so you have to ensure you get a good score which is 100% possible.

WELL.....SOME SCHOOL IN USA DO NOT CONSIDER THE WHOLE UNDERGRADUATE GPA THEY ONLY CONSIDER THE LAST TWO YEARS OF UNDERGRADUATE RESULT(LAST 60 SEMESTER UNIT)

So if you’re able to write good GPA of 3.0 or more on a scale of 4.0 in your last two years then you’re on good for funding

Hello @skywalking and all other guru's in the house, please o, i just evaluated my CGPA using the WES GPA tool and my overall CGPA is 2.90 on a 4.0 scale

Please can this fly for a fully funded schorlaship?

I have scheduled visa interview for a university A. But I decided to go to interview for university B. When I booked appointment on CGI portal, there was field to enter university name and zip code (see screenshot). Now I want to change name of university on CGI portal, but there is no option to change university name in Update profile tab.

Please someone tell how can I change university name in CGI portal without cancelling visa appointment.
Thanks.

Have you been able to resolve the issue and enter your new SEVIS ID and school name?

I recently secured a loan more than that amount, How did you fill in your loan application that made them reject you after giving you conditional approval, there must have been something they didn't like in the details of your application, maybe shoot them an email to see if there's a chance of reevaluation, if they agree to reevaluate your application let me know so we can examine ur new application together

I would like to speak to you personally, please reach out to me on Jenniferajibo@gmail.com. Thanks

The US embassy should set a student visa surge date for fall 2022, similar to how they did for spring 2022 in December 2021. They can do better.

I already picked the date out of ignorance. What can I do please and I have a fully funded scholarship that I don't want to loose.

It is okay. just keep checking for newer dates. I would have advised you to pick the earliest date you saw. It happened to me too, my EA was approved but the earliest date I saw was some days after resumption, I kept checking back, preferrably around evenings and I got another date few days before resumption. So keep praying and checking.

Hi

Sorry about your loan denial.
I was in this shoes few months ago

Mpower financing declined lots of loan decisions that they had conditionally approved in the first stage of the application… I gathered that the US government had laid off loan debts incurred on students lately I think that affected their approval rates.. just my thoughts anyway.
Is your program a STEM program. It’s like they give preference to STEM students.

Start off by looking out for funding offers from other departments in your schools and search for external sources of funding too
Go through external funding resources available to international students, that would help.
Try fastweb.com

Hope this information helps.

Hello people.

I'm actually in some kind of dilemma at the moment and need help and advise.

I got admitted for a Master degree in Public health against Fall in 5 different US universities. Trying to secure funding In form of a graduate assistantship has been very difficult. All effort yielded to nothing.

I then decided to go for a student loan (Mpower) of $30k with financial support of $10k from a friend. My loan was declined just before I attached my financial support letter and statement of account. The reason was that "Your projected debt burden at the time of graduation exceeds our risk limits". This loan was supposed to be for a year/session. The estimated cost for a session study was $40k.

And I was really banking on this loan. At this point, I really don't know what to do. Would my loan have been accepted if I had attached the sponsor letter and bank statement on time? If so, I could file for an appeal.

Did I make any mistake while applying that worked against me? I need advise.

Thank you

Hello, Good Day Mrs.

Sincerely, you can’t say you would want to say with your husband for 5years. Ah! It’s not advisable at all, don’t even try it, talk-less of filling it that way you on your ds160. Please oh!

The best bet is always with 2-3 months.

VO: How long would you be staying?

You: I will be staying for 2months.

VO: Why are going to the USA?

You: to help my husband is settling down or to give my husband emotional support, after which i will return back to my work place, I’m currently on a 3months work leave break.

If he’s be there before now:

You: I will going to visit my husband, my children have missed father care, now that they’re on summer break seems to be the right time to see their daddy before their resumption.

Just make something outta the above, they’re just want comes to my ‘head’ atm, not saying you should say that same way.

Don’t forget you work is your home tie, so most of your responses should be you referencing your job.

Please, don’t fill 5 years oh. Best bet 2-3months.

Don’t forget to do mocks to ace the way you put your responses together ahead of your interview.

Good luck to you and yours.

Hi. If you haven't already resolved this problem, try this: in the third box for school code, enter the next 5 digits, instead of 4 digits. Then the fourth/last box should contain the last 3 digits of the school code.

How are you able to know resumption date for January 17th. That should be spring resumption, Fall session hasn't even begun.

Anyway, as long as your passport has six month validity you're good to go.

Alright so if I see a newer date what should I do, how would I reschedule that date to a new one
And can I check early in the morning around 7:30 am because I have limited time to view the page
