Baba how body?? I am going to New Haven too.... can i have your number i havent gone for interview sha but i know all is possible.... here is my number (08036645364) Thanks. Otogie1: Hello everyone. Please I had my interview today at Lagos with 50% scholarship and I was denied. And I’ve been wondering what went wrong
Below is my transcript
VO: good morning
Me: good morning sir
VO: where are you going to?
Me: I am going to University of New Haven at West Haven, Conneticut in the US to study and obtain a masters degree in human resource management and I will be concentrating in Employee relations.
VO: Why did you choose the University?
Me: I chose the university of new Haven for many reasons but these are my major reasons
Firstly, I chose new Haven because from my research i found out that it is a school that will position me for success in my Carrier path with the aid of their career development center which is one of the best in the nation. They will do this through their phenomenal and unconventional method of teaching most especially through their project based learning. It is a school that is positioned to turn my passion for HR into a rewarding life and a fulfilling career. Secondly, I chose the University of new haven because it offers Human resource management with a concentration in employee relations which is actually my area of interest to help me acquire necessary HR skills to achieve my goal in increasing employees’ productivity and performance and also resolve or manage workplace disputes in my current workplace. Lastly, I was awarded a 50% dean’s scholarship. These are my reasons why I chose the school
VO: Who is paying for your trip?
Me: my dad
VO: What does he do?
Me: He’s a clergyman and he owns a Chruch here in Lagos and he equally owns and manages a school here in Lagos with my mum
VO: Have you traveled out of Nigeria before?
Me: yes sir I have. I traveled to Ghana in 2012 with my family for the December vacation.
Then Boom!!! ...... Blue paper. I wan mad Please any suggestions as to what went wrong ?? 1 Like 1 Share |

Hello, everyone,
What are the best ways to answer these questions on the DS160 Form?
1. Have you made specific travel plans? The options are Yes or No. What are the implications of each answer? Can they penalise you for a 'no' since you have not booked your flight?
2. Intended Length of Stay Do you put the program duration?
3. Person/Entity paying for your trip? What does this mean? Is it talking about your source of funding or who is paying the flight cost?
Thank you. |
