Hello people,

Thank you all for the good job that you are doing here. I recently joined the conversation last year and the volume of information and help I have gotten is enormous. Thank you.

I am in a tight situation here. I am going for my MS in Mech Engr and I have my visa interview already scheduled for Monday, 05/31/2021. However, my dept reached out to me on Thursday last week offering me a GA position in the department - someone else previously awarded had cancelled. However this is coming quite late and I reached out to my International Student Office on Friday to revise my I20 but I haven't heard back from them and it might be too late already, since my interview is tomorrow at Lagos. My GA offer letter from my department comes with full tuition waiver plus $21,000 salary for 1 year employment, leaving me with about $3k deficit. My mother will sponsor the remaining deficit.

Is it advisable to go with my GA offer letter to my interview as proof of my GA funding? Has anyone been in this situation before?

Thank you in advance.
Cancel and reapply o. there's still a lot of time. if you can reschedule please do. if its to pay another 67K please do.

Hello guys,

I need help with financial docs to process my i20, I have scholarship but I still don’t know why my school is asking for docs to release the i20. Anybody to the rescue ?!

What help do you need? Provide the documents the school has asked for, I'm sure they spelled out exactly what they need.

Try Bolingo Hotel. It is just a minute walk to the embassy. I stayed there the night before my interview. The rooms are cool and serene. You'll feel relaxed and ready to get your visa.

All the best

Good day house,

I’m asking this question on behalf of someone. Is it possible to get full funding for graduate studies if someone graduates with a second class lower?
If yes, any suggestions on the schools?

Why are you making things hard for yourself, why will you lie about your age? If they catch you they'll ban for life oh, better go and correct that stuff and use your real age, Bsc with scholarship at 23 isn't bad, even if you're 27 explain yourself because you won't like the outcome of you're caught, I have seen someone here who got approved for BS in CS at 28yrs, agents will embarrase you!! grin grin

If they don't know you in person go to school and meet them, they don't bite, just tell them what you came for, if one says no you'll surely find others that will write, or they tell you to write and give them, I feared the same thing but it was easier than I thought, schooled in UNN, non of my lecturers knows me as I'm not one of those bright or popular students but when I came and introduce myself they welcomed me and wrote for me

Omo, dem try for you o. God dey sha 'cause the process no be here. First, you have to have permission to submit their mails to your schools, then comes the follow up questions ' how do you know this person' bla bla bla, then the writing proper. E no easy.
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 16 by Bank450(m): 10:39am On May 31, 2021
Baba it is very easy, just pick up the phone and call your old lecturers, introduce yourself, if they don't know you quickly mention the name of a popular but good person in your set and say you are same set with the person. Tell them you are applying to some schools in USA/Canada and will like to use them as one of your references, some might say you should contact the HOD or your supervisor, tell them that you have already but that you need 3 references. Do this for like 3 lecturers, but make sure they are nice ones ooo, the ones that can write nice things about you.

After getting their approval submit their emails in the application. Then call them again to tell them the school will send a mail to them soon, tell them you will like the letter to be good because it carries weight in the admission process, suggest to write the letter if possible. Dont use too official level. just sound friendly and nice, you can even you local language if possible.

Depends on the school. If your sponsor name is written on your i-20 then the VO will see it. I know ETSU does that.
