Okay. Thank you.

BabyI24:

Abuja. Sure will do that

Great interview and congratulations! I'll argue the US Economy needs people like you than you even realized. The growth of Electric Vehicle couple with the fact that every first world country is trying to reduce their carbon emission footprint makes your research area very important.

Here is my transcript:

Me: Good morning
VO: Good morning
VO: Pass me your passport as it is packed for you.
Me: Ok sir
VO: So, where are you going in the US?
Me: I'm going for my PhD in Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering at Tulane University.
VO: What University again?
Me: Repeats it.
VO: Are you married?
Me: No
VO: Do you have Kids?
Me: No
VO: What specialization in Chemical Engineering
ME: Renewable energy
VO: What University did you do your undergraduate studies?
Me: I told him.
VO: Why are you going for a PhD in this school?
Me: My research interest has always been in renewable energy source and storage and I was able to find great professors who are currently carrying out research in the development of new materials for Renewable energy more than other universities that I applied to and got admitted to. I was also offered a full tuition waiver and a graduate teaching assistantship role that offers a stipend that covers my living cost. The student to professor ratio is very nice for a highly ranked research University so I get to interact with my professors more and get more guidance for my research.

VO: What will you be researching on?
Me: I will be researching on new materials for batteries in Renewable Energy systems so as to be able to expand the durability and depth in discharge of renewable energy storage devices while ensuring a smooth integration of this stored renewable energy to the power grid for the use of populace.

VO: I can see that you have a full scholarship here
Me- Yes, I do.

V.O:- Okay. I will be approving your visa. I will hold on your passport and you will pick it up with this in a few days time. He hands me a white paper.
Me: Thank you.
VO: You are welcome.
Me: What am I to do with this white paper again?
VO: it is for you to pickup your passport at your pre determined location. We will send you a mail when it is ready. It should be ready in a few days time.
Me: Thank you.


He didn't ask me for any documents.

Is there a reason Nigeria doesn't need electric vehicles and the expertise that comes with it?

degxyflexy:
MFA (Painting), the graduate coordinator sent me the mail that I have been accepted, his word "We are still looking at our options, If funding comes through, we promise to let you know the second that situation changes." I was sent an mail to send my official transcript so that the university can send my acceptance letter. One of the current student I chat with said they normally offer tuition waiver and some funding so I hope it will come with the acceptance letter.

Alright, do the needful and get your I-20.
Make sure you follow up with your GC, you will be funded hopefully.

We absolutely do. Unfortunately, our current leaders doesn't see a value in it. In fact, a bill to introduce electric vehicle by 2035 was rejected by the senate solely because we an oil producing country and our economy is largely dependent on oil. https://businessday.ng/technology/article/senate-rejects-bill-to-introduce-electric-cars-in-2035/

Congratulations, BabyI24.

I can remember your transcript being discussed sometimes last week on this thread.

It is a season of approvals. For guys going for interviews in the coming weeks, just be bold and confident. Personalize your responses and don't give generic reasons. If you are genuine, I don't see any VO denying you visa. Good luck to everyone.

Dear All,

I am currently not in Nigeria, so I created an account choosing Nigeria as my visa place. Now I want to change the visa Ds160 to my current place so that I can make appointment here.

Please is this possible?

Good morning house,
Please Lagos applicants if you notice any available dates do not hesitate to let others know. I'm a Lagos applicant. So we can all get dates.

Hello house! Please I have gotten another admission in computer science Master's program in WIU and the first was Applied statistics and Decision Analysis. Please which one i s good with my psychology bsc degree because I wanted the statistics because of my love for research and for computer science I am born with it. It's a follow come from heaven, I can stay on a computer day in day out without getting tired. Please help suggest. Thanks

You can initiate a new process independently without stopping him, since last year he's not been able to deliver means he may have spent the money on something else, if you have chance you go down to the University transcript office on your own. Which school could that be?

Funnyman:
Good evening guys, I am in a dire situation and I need inputs...I intend to apply for fall 2021, so I applied for my transcript sometimes in late nov 2020 through a guy who claimed he works in transcript office....I paid him and believed he would deliver but as of now he is yet to facilitate the transcript. So now I'm hoping it will be ready for spring 2022....He has been given one excuse or the other despite promising to deliver within 2 weeks before we started.

Now my question is should I just terminate the process with him and start afresh even though it's not likely
I will recover my full money from him? Or do you guys think I should give him more time?

I'm just worried it wont delay my spring 2022 plan now....I don't even know if he will ever get it done....the institution is a federal university in the south, thanks.

YES..... Just fill another DS application and choose your preferred location. Then go back to the CGI portal and update the new application ID.

Oh! Thanks dear. I did not apply with GRE. It wasn't a criteria. WIU is just a lovely school. Although I had a cgpa of 3.75/4.00 more than the criterion CGPA from 2.75 upwards. My work now is to face the VO in the embassy so as to convince him/her about the change of degree.

Hi, I sent you a mail.

Please check your email.
