I'm slightly confused here on this US journey.
I just gained admission into Western Illinois university but a SOA showing a balance of $22600 is needed or Sponsor account statement is needed for I-20 to be issued.

Never knew the cost would be that much from the research I made before applying to the school.

If I apply for any form if funding be it TA or Graduate Assistance job and favoured enough to be have a contract, how many percent discount is likely to be given?

More so, about the sponsor, if I get a sponsor SOA be it someone in Nigeria or US, must the payment be made before Visa application? If payment is not needed to be made and I'm fortunate enough to get a visa, can I travel and get a full funding there?

Right now, I can't even think of anyone that can sponsor me by paying such huge amount

White V.O

Noticed from transcripts posted on here that the white V.O usually comes early and the black V.O starts later, so I decided to go very early even though my appointment was 8:15. I got there by 6:20 but the interview started few minutes to 9.

Me: Good morning
V.O: Good morning

Me: Before we start, I'd like to say that I'm very nervous and when I'm nervous, my talking is fast and distorted so if you don't hear what I'm saying just tell me to repeat it.
V.O: Don't worry, no reason to be nervous. So why are you going to the United States.

Me: I would be going to continue by undergraduate degree in biology at Edward Waters college in Florida. I started taking classes for the fall semester in Nigeria because of the pandemic and ended with a 4.0 GPA, I have my result with me.
V.O: wow, 4.0, that's great. (Then, Takes a look at my I-20), oh I can see you have a full ride, that's great.

V.O: (looks at me and sees that I'm kind of nervous) no need to be nervous.

V.O: so what will this degree do for you?
Me: I love biology, it's like my favourite subject in high school but most importantly I plan to pursue a career in biomedical research and biology would be a great foundational course for me. Also, this degree would enable me work at the Centre for excellence in reproductive health initiative where my uncle works.

V.O: Good, so where is this place you say your uncle works? Lagos or Abuja?
Me: Benin.

V.O: I intended to issue you your visa, this form contains information on how to pick your passport.

I'm really very happy and I thank everyone on NL. I started this journey in 2018 and I'm glad that God has crowned it with success. I paid MRV four times between November and now. Thankfully all the money I've used since I got admitted from SEVIS to MRV four times to samsung tablet, data and feeding while I was taking online class were external scholarships I got while taking classes this fall. Nothing is too much for God to do at all.

EmeritusR:


what payment are you talking about? the money the school wants you to show is your cost of attendance before they can issue you an i-20 just to know if may you or your sponsors will be able to cover up the fees, they aren't telling you to pay before coming, unless if it is a school that requires you to make a tuition deposit before they send you your i-20 which I guess western Illinois university does not require that. if the graduate assistantship or funding is been given to you, it depends on what the school gave you that's the only way you can know the percentage from what your cost of attendance would be.

Shercorp:


Yes you can.

Your residence permit must be valid though.

what is the process of getting full-funding for someone that majored in Education, say biology education. Would the person have to be looking for TA, RA or GA? can the person also apply for PhD?

Hello Guys,

Please I need someone who could help with WES evaluation payment?

I tried using my master card but it wasn't going through (I guess it's because of that stupid federal government policy), alternatively I tried using Western Union money transfer and I was told I can only receive money.

Any help at this point would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance guys!!!
