Sigh, some of you can’t just read to understand….listen, mail the school that you are a Nigerian and “what’s is the first official language language “”English””. Some school would let it slide provided you can prove to them that you are fluent in English. Here in Minnesota, if it’s this same scenario, the school offer you something called “Acuplacer”, if you get a certain score, they let you proceed… that is what I’m explaining to you.

You don't have to be condescending in your response. Nobody will crucify you if you're polite and no one is forcing you to respond

Thanks so much for the info

Please I have 2 questions
1. Did Turkish Air ask for fully vaccinated Covid card ?

2. Did you book the flight directly from Turkish Air to get the discount or you used an Agent such as Wakanow
1. Yes. They scan the code before they issue your boarding pass.

2. Yes. I went to their office in Abuja. Leadway House Central Business District.

Interesting,

2 key things to note here, Please kindly confirm if I am right.

First, you can either book online or book through their mobile app.
Second, you can walk up to them and get a discount as a student. (They give discount to students).

Can you share with us their office address please.

Thank you!!
Booking through their app means you will be paying with a dollar card.

I went to their office because I couldn't pay via the app as it was in USD. So when I called them, they said I should come to their office and pay; that was where I got to know about their student discount offer. They automatically give when they see your visa and age, so go with your passport.

Good day all

I am scheduled for an interview 12th January,2022 and that is the date of my school's resumption. I applied for extension letter but the school suggested I defer to Fall 2022 which I am very ok with.

Now, my confusion is;

1. Should I reschedule my visa interview to a later date? In March or April?

2. Would I need to fill another DS-160 when I am going for the rescheduled interview?
If I do not need to, can I still fill a NEW one to make changes or I can edit this current DS-160

I'm grateful for your responses.

I'm surprised you asked these questions. MBA is a well know threaded path.

That said, yes, you can get scholarshipS. Actually former a colleague got 3 scholarships - HBS, GSB and Sloan. But chose GSB. These schools, or even lower ranked ones, they like a) black woman and b) top GMAT scores. If you have two of these, you will go really far. If b) is not bad but you have a), then you will make some progress.

So, to answer your specific questions

1. All serious MBA programs give scholarships. Many even provide avenues to get loans. I had to ask twice when I visited HBS to be sure that they're indeed willing to provide avenues for loans to students they admit who may not be able to pay all the fees themselves or whose scholarships do not cover all fees

2. You need to take the GMAT. For some reason, some (most?) of us find this test challenging. But if you tear it, and you be black woman, top schools go pursue you enter your house smiley. If you don't get top scores, but your scores are decent, some type of partial scholarship is still possible. I know Omhengwo who went to Wharton with 50% and paid the rest 50% from life savings. lol. The short girl no gree borrow.

3. Yes, F2 visa is possible. I know many people whose immediate families have F2. Not a biggie, really.

Your questions are easy. Lol. Are you in this world?

Good day guys,

Please I would need the gurus in the house to help guide me as I embark on this journey.
I want to apply for an MSc program in the States. I have a GPA of 2.8.

My questions are:

1) Which schools in the States accept Second Class (Lower Division) for their MSc programs?
2) Which schools can I apply to that won't require IELTS or TOEFL or GMAT.?

PS: I studied Political Science Education.

My degree is B.Ed. Can I apply for MSc in Administration with this qualification?

Thanks for your swift response

Hi, I always advise people with low CGPA to do the following:
1. Do WES evaluation, i.e., convert your grades to American standard (/4.0)
2. Write TOEFL and GRE/GMAT and obtain very good scores (this shows that you're ready for graduate school, you set aside months to prepare for these exams)
3. Research on schools that accept low CGPA like 2.75/4.00 (remember you must do WES evaluation to know your grade /4.0). For example, APSU.

Best of luck bro

If your intended school accepts WES evaluation, do a WES evaluation of your WASSCE result and send to them, it'll serve as your high school transcript.

Please don’t cancel. If you do, you will have to forefront your MrV then pay another one to get a new date.

Kindly check well, the reschedule option is always there.

To the best of my knowledge wpi requires toefl from Nigerian students. But he/she can try Clarkson University, the school has everything he/she requested for but the deadline is January 31 and its in New York.

Is best of your knowledge the school's knowledge or verdict?

Or does WPI discriminate among Nigerian students? I gave WPI as a place to apply because non TOEFL people just successfully applied or got admitted few days or weeks ago with TOEFL.

Good day.

1. If you got your current date via the 'Reschedule option' then you won't be able to access it again.

2. Yes. You can schedule another appointment with the same MRV if you haven't cancelled before.
