Good day to all the gurus in the house. I have been following and reading this tread and some of the previous ones for a while now. I want to apply for masters in US.
I observed that the only discussion here starts from interview, going through transcripts and any other payment after being given admission(if I am right).
I graduated with 2:1 Accounting. Should I write GRE or GMAT. Also, I don't know if there is a tread for those seeking admission. Where we can see samples of LOI(letter of Intent), SOP and the likes.
I will really appreciate ur responses.

GMAT

Hi, guys. I checked my sevis payment status, and I realized it still shows paid. I made payment in 2019. I'm confused if the payment is still valid. Photo attached.

Send an email to DHS on:fmjfee.sevis@ice.dhs.gov to know if your SEVIS fee is still valid. Include your SEVIS fee receipt ( coupon generated) as attachment in the email.

Depending on the Masters you want to do, if you're going for an MBA in a top school - Go for GMAT, otherwise GRE should suffice for most scenarios.

The thread is filled with interview questions currently because that's the current season. If you're looking for admission advice, check earlier in the thread or older threads.

I heard about Kennesaw state university from Brown2green. May God bless him.

I'm grateful to God Almighty that made today possible. Everything started in 2019.
I wrote GRE and applied to schools but they all rejected me then I ran to Nairaland to tender my case.

One angel saw my case on Nairaland and sent a mail to me. We call him Pepe �. I thank God for using Pepe for me. He told me to go and do WES so that I can get admission and funding. I told him it wasn't possible becos I didn't have that kind of money. He pressed on me until I did WES, then my story changed.

I am so happy right now. Only God could have done this.

I planned to have my interview at a later date but I just discovered that my passport will remain exactly 6 months tomorrow. God gave me today's date in short �

Interview
Vo: good morning
Me: good morning sir.
Vo: do you have up to six months on this passport.
Me: yes sir. It will remain six months tomorrow.
Vo: where are you going in the US?
Me: I'm going to kennesaw state university for my Master's degree in chemistry. I got this offer in 2020 but due to covid lockdown I couldn't secure an appointment.
Vo: oh, I see.
Me: yes sir. In fact my assistantship was kept for me.
Vo: nodding in agreement.
Vo : why do you want to have this degree?
Me: I planned to join a multinational company here in Nigeria as a research and development Chemist, and this degree will put me in the best position to achieve that.
I'm currently eyeing Nestlé, OLAM, and Unilever.
Vo: where are you working presently?
Me: I'm working with Nestlé Nigeria on contract. I joined them pending the beginning of my program as I can't take up any permanent appointment until I get my Master's.
Vo: nodding in agreement.
Vo: have you travelled out before?
Me: No sir.
Vo: who is your sponsor?
Me : named him.
Vo: what does he do?
Me: he holds the position of vice president at OLAM international. So he controls all their manufacturing activities in Nigeria.
Vo: didn't get OLAM so I spelt for him.
Vo: why does he want to sponsor you?
Me: he was the one that advised me to go for my Master's abroad to gain a better research knowledge and international exposure before I join their company as R& Chemist. He promised to render all the necessary support and he's doing just that. In fact he gave me the money last year before I realized I couldn't go.
Vo: the money is in your account?
Me: No sir. In his account.
Vo: do you have his statement?
Me: yes I do. Gave him.
While he collected it to check, I quickly added.. that's just his transactional account, not his salary account.
Me: the assistantship I have has covered full tuition and living expenses, he's just covering the miscellaneous expenses.
Vo: checked the i20 again, then drop the account statement and then he said something I didn't hear and gave me the white paper.
Me: still standing at his front like I was in another world.
Vo: you are free to go.

Hallelujah!
The security there said it was the longest interview.

I appreciate everyone on this thread. Thanks so much!

Spence, thanks so much for words of wisdom.

Pepe my brother, I love you so much.

Wait o, I have already rescheduled my appointment once, can I also use this cancel option and choose another date without paying?

Good Evening Famz.

Please who has received admission from University of North Alabama?

I have been contacted via email that my admission package, acceptance letter and I-20 would be sent via email.

I thought I should be able to access my admission and acceptance letters via their webiste.

Please I will like to hear from people that already have their offer.

Thanks for Adding this

But will I be able to use the reschedule option later in the case I cannot find a closer date for a visa intervew appointment?

I filled a ds-160 form some years back for tourist visa, now I have to fill another for F1 visa, I do not have access to the email I used in the previous application, please how can I retrieve it or change to my new email.
Also, I await assistantship decision, but I have my I-20, do you suggest I go ahead and book interview date with the I-20 I have now and is it possible to change it later.
Thank you guys

Thank you. I have sent them a message but they are yet to reply. My interview is in some weeks time. Is it possible that my sevis payment is still valid or it's normal for it to appear that way?

homodele:

People have gotten in the group I am. So you go call graduate studies to send your documents to the department. And if it is already under review, call your department to confirm. No dull moments.

So basically you have only made just one appointment beforehand?
