Both... To study Masters program in USA, complete studies, get Post Study Work Permit, and get a Residency Permit (PR) to remain in USA indefinitely. What is USA system? I understand Canada and UK, but I don't understand America's pathways to remain in USA after graduation. I don't even understand how to determine which American Universities offer Post-Study Work Permit.. I don't know these things well. I need a guide or a breakdown of details

Well you will need to visit the US Homeland security website to understand how to get resident permit and remain in USA indefinitely. This platform is only for studies.
Best of luck

You can go with your spouse at the same time. How many dependents are you taking about? If have sufficient funds, it shouldn't be a problem.
What is the range of amount needed to present for one dependent by a full funded student?

Im no guru, but I think your answers are to short and not very informative i.e when you were asked what you do. also when asked if you were going for mba, you coulda stated exactly what your weee going to
study and then use it to buteress the follow up on returning to Nigeria. also you might have said it , but my assumptions are from this transcript your wrote.

I feel that when we are answering questions we should be active and not passive. In this case, you didn't give the VO enough information about yourself,for example what do you do? I am a businesswoman and I am the CEO of Funmiedo supermarket or whatever business you do. I sell provisions,fragrance etc and I have 10 staff working for me.
Secondly, if you're a businesswoman, you should be able to self-sponsor yourself if not all at least half of the school fees to show that your business is thriving and you won't be a burden in the USA.
I hope I am correct to some extent. Please watch ARGO visa on YouTube for better clarification and understanding. Thank you.

First of all, funding, MBA is costly if not full funded, so you been self funded means you need to prove beyond doubt that your sponsor is capable, from transcript history here V.O
don't reckon with salary earners and civil servants as eligible sponsor, you might have increased your chance by stating the person's net income or use a business person with steady cash flow.

2. Your answer "business woman" to what do you do is too generic, you are going for MBA to probably become a leader in an organisation. V.O might be expecting a more specific job title and a little about your job description and organisation size, even if you are self employed, e.g. I work as ...xyz, in an organisation of 70 staff, I handle .... Best of luck next time

To be honest, I really do not understand America's stance on Permanent Residency. I would like to study in USA but
I don't know what their PR is obtained. How do you secure a permanent residency in USA. Is it possible or is there a pathway to getting a PR in America through study route?

You may have to research more. There are some paths through which one can attain the PR in the long haul:

1. Find a company that will be willing to sponsor your H1B visa for a couple of years, until you qualify to apply for a green card. Your work permit would be tied to your company, until you become independent.

Most immigration consultants believe that an average H1B visa lasts three years, after which a candidate is eligible to file for a green card - that may take a couple of months too, if not 1 year plus..

2. Marry person wey get kpali (citizen), that’s if you are unmarried o.

You asked a good question: it shows that you want to have a good plan. Let no one discourage you from seeking answers.

most universities in the u.s and Canada international admission cgpa scale is 3.00, so you are very qualified to apply for an Msc program. In some cases u are asked to write a one of the standardized exams like the GRE test.

In addition to what you said, he has to be clearer on the overall GPA his cumulative is equated to.

Last I checked, most Nigerian universities use different cumulative GPA. Example, 3.1/4.00 is not bad per say, but 3.1/5.00 would definitely court attention during review by the admission committee of any school involved.

Sorry about the frustration but you can't want to do it yourself and still be looking for list of schools.
So first, type your program on Google and you will see a list of schools then open each one and read their requirements if you have them. After that, you start applying.
Georgia Institute of Technology is one
Best of luck

Greetings house.. after much attempt, I finally aced the GRE exam with score 321. I graduated with a 2.2 of which when converted to WES gives me a 2.85/4. That's why I took the GRE to bolster my chances. I also intend to take the ielts/toefl exam bkaux I'm looking for fully funded scholarship for Msc or PHD anyone. My question is
1) with my plan stated above,is it possible to get a fully funded scholarship in the Us with the profile above?

2) if it is possible, pls any kind hearted person can refer schools with my CGPA of 2.8/4 that gives funding with good GRE score.
