Could you share your previously rejected transcript?
Reasons could be there.


Sun1shyne:
My visa was refused at Abuja embassy on 29th October.

We exchanged greetings and he asked for my document (passport and co) I passed it, he then kept it aside.
Looking at the system, he asked if I had ever traveled outside of Nigeria, I said No, I haven't had any reason to. I was looking at him and smiling, but he wasn't even smiling back.

Second question (still haven't touched my document), do you have any relative in the US?
I said no i don't

He then picked up my passport and brought out my I-20. Who is gonna pay for your deficit?
My dad is going to take care of that

What does your dad do?
He is an Obstetrician and Gynaecologist at a federal teaching hospital in xx state

What do you do here in Nigeria?
I work as a Nutrition advisor with xx Nigeria Plc

Thank you for coming. Unfortunately, you do not qualify.....

What could be wrong?

Please I want to re-apply. My school resumes in January.
Someone is suggesting I select regular instead of previously refused when scheduling another appointment, and I'd like to know if that doesn't matter. Has it worked for anyone please or does it have consequence?

I think you should select previously refused to be on a safe side. It is already in their record that you have been refused. Don't complicate things for yourself.

okay.

1st interview on June 7
Fall 2021
Abuja embassy
COA $29k
No funding

VO: pass me your document

Me: alright, here you go

VO: what are you going to do in US?

Me: I'm going for my masters program in Nutrition sciences at Bowling Green State University Ohio

VO: I see you have funds to be paid by family. Which of your family is paying?

Me: My maternal uncle xx, he is a businessman who deals on car sales.

VO: what did you study in your undergraduate?

Me: Human Nutrition and Dietetics

VO: when did you graduate?

Me: November 2015

VO: what have you been doing since then?

Me: after my graduation in 2015, I went for my compulsory national youth service corps in 2016/2017, after that I got a contract job at an NGO that works on eradication of malnutrition in severe acute malnourished children. After the contract expired, I enrolled for my one year Dietetics internship at a federal teaching hospital here in Nigeria. I finished in October 2019 and wrote my license exam in December. Then in February 2020, I got a job with xx Nigeria plc as a nutrition advisor and that is where I currently work

VO:okay. I'm sorry you do not qualify for visa at this time, the paper will explain to you.....

After this happened, I re-applied. I chose previously refused but couldn't get a favourable date, so i applied for EA and was denied on the basis that i had been denied within 6 months. So i had to keep the date (October 29) and deferred my admission to Spring 2022.
I then followed up with my graduate coordinator and she was able to offer me a partial scholarship and 5hrs of GA. That lead to a reduction of my tuition to $21k.
Then i went back for my second interview. This time, my dad was going to pay my deficit.
That's all
Thanks

It's not advisable...I'm talking from experience. Maybe you should confirm first from your school but some schools don't accept it like the one I applied to.

Hello,
Please has anyone recently got his or her visa application approved without funding or scholarship or assistantship?

My interview is this week and the COA is $35k. I have proof of funds from my father who’ll be paying but no supplement from the school.

be speaking grammar, those of us speaking from experience, we sent him text messages to reject us right? Or we texted him the same questions to ask all of us. It’s really not your fault. Moreover i never quoted you, please dont quote me if you have no interests in being reasonable.
