I didn't feel bad that I was denied tho because today was to hectic. I was the 14th person on the queue, all the 14 was giving blue paper. Omo na grace pray make God timing meet your own timing. This is not to discourage those that still have theirs latter this month. Just keep going and believe you case would be different. Peace!

Looks like the white woman is on rampage now, she did the same thing for me and boom, blue paper.

So I had my interview yesterday at the Lagos Embassy, find within my transcript, so I can be well prepared for the next time I go, probably Abuja next time.

Me: I got to know it through my pman as he made consultations through his associates to choose the best option for me to have a degree in Civil Engineering and that's his goal so I'll be well versed to take over his company when am done with my studies.

VO: Who's going to sponsor you?

Me: Definitely my Dad, he owns Bla bla company a firm that deals in bla bla bla

VO: Can I have his bank statement?

Me: Here you have it.

VO: I can see Polytechnic on your profile? And returns the Statement.

Hello there, I just changed the location and rescheduled a new appointment but the Emergency Request option is not available. Pls, what could be wrong ?

You definitely need to fill a new DS-160 or have you forgotten that you had to choose a location when you filled the last DS-160? Fill a new DS-160 and choose Abuja as location.
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 16 by Vicko3: 10:22pm On May 11, 2022
Good day great minds.

Please I'm currently engaged but on the DS-160 form there is no space for that there. Do I have to fill single?

Pls help

The same white lady interviewed me today too, mehn it ended in blue paper oooo. She doesn have chills unlike the brown skinned woman. Maybe it was stress because they had only two people on duty today.

If I get it right that you were denied in December 2021, you will need at least 6months to reapply again to have a better chance of good adjudication and that must have been the reason your EA was not approved this time or you used it earlier during your December 2021 interview.

Hello everyone.
Please can I mention that I have a National diploma. Because I’m going for my bachelors in microbiology and I graduated high school in 2018.
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 16 by BigboysZ(m): 11:46pm On May 11, 2022
Did you observe a problem in your community you are trying to solve?

What are the "specific skills" needed for you to solve it?

That's where the course comes in to equip you with the required skills and competencies needed to tackle that issue.

This is just a case among many reasons if they ask you why this course.

Good morning guys,

For an applicant that's eligible for EA, which consulate approves and has closer EA dates between Lagos and Abuja?

My dilemma is the office that offered me housing GA insists I must have my visa approved by June 1st and resume not less than a week before 5th July for start of summer class/GA training.

So I need suggestions on which consulate to go for. �

Okay sorry about this.
So if you are going next, why don't you look at applying for a Msc or a PhD instead of literally repeating Bsc again. (That's one)
Did you have any form of funding?
"Who's your sponsor?" My dad is fine without "definitely"

Best of luck

Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 16 by HDwayne: 4:27am On May 12, 2022
Yes, I requested for an EA in December but it was later ‘canceled’ not denied coz I got an appointment thru the priority surge date. Even at that, i think a new MRV should give me me at least 2 EA attempts if I’m not mistaken, coz I requested once and got denied and now the EA option is not showing again. I’m just so confused. My program start date is June 9.I need help.

You can only have 2 EA attempts in a location. Since you changed location, you have exhausted all attempts. You can only check for earlier date by joining group looking for date. You can't request an emergency attempt with this Mrv fee again. Best.

A few things I noticed; your response lack depth.

1. How did you know about this university?
You literally said your pman(assuming your dad?) handpicked the university for you….��‍♂️


2. Why the US?

You also just said “because I just finished my URP HND, getting a degree will make me qualified to take over my father’s company”


Shebi you sef see say the responses no gel with the question the lady dey ask you.

Above all, consular wants to see that FI applicants are confident, high standing personnel that have a mind of their own etc.

I hope you get approved the next time.

Please I have a regular appointment on the 29th of August and my school resumes on 22nd . Can I apply for EA now or wait till it is 60days am currently in dubai and I am to attend interview there.
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 16 by adextems: 8:23am On May 12, 2022
The school I will be attending offers me 50% scholarship for the first quarter of my MBA programme and also stated that I am eligible for merit based scholarship that covers 30% of my tuition fees. The was stated under remark on my I-20. The school sent me a letter titled Scholarship letter in reference to the remark.
Please, do I tell the VO I have a scholarship and how do I call this type of scholarship because I don’t know if it’s the same as partial scholarship/funding?

Since your appointment is in a foreign country, I can't categorically tell you to apply for it or not, but many people applied for it in Nigeria Consulates without considering the 60 days rule, and their EA were approved this week. Same thing happened last year. What I noticed is that most of the applicants that got their EA approved are fresh candidates without denial before.
