What’s your cost of attendance? Maybe try Mpower?

BigIyanga:

Sorry I’m not whatsapp and DM.

Zihno:


Hello Chibertha, can you please advice me? I applied to 5 schools for a PhD and 4 of them rejected my application. One offered me an unfunded Msc admission ( SUNY Buffalo). I’m considering using Mpower to sponsor it. COA is $46k

Blegolicious:


You can't renew passport 6 months earlier than the expiry date. you can only renew 6 months to expiry date.

engroyekan:
Good morning folks, please I need clarification. I have an offer to study Public Health at WIU. The condition for issuance of I-20 and official admission letter is the submission of POF.

The question is, is the length of stay of the fund in the account important for issuance of I-20?

I will appreciate an urgent reply. Thanks

Zihno:

The elderly and infants were allowed to go first.

I was the second, and the consulate officer was the Fat Lady. The first person was approved.

VO: Can I have your I-20
Me: Here you go, ma, feeling happy and confident.
VO: What is your postgraduate plan.
Me. The plan is to return as a director to manage a division of the company. The company is providing funding because they believe i will add strategic insight to the business.
VO: Why is your company paying this huge sum for you.
Me: The company is big on training, and our senior management team gets trian at YALE, but exactly the full-on Masters like this.. she cut me off.
VO: So why are they paying?
Me: My employer has over 20 expatriates under its employment, and they are looking to have local take up more of the strategic role. Getting and bringing in expatriate can have some bottleneck. The Coy is looking to train more locals.

VO: What's your travel history?

Me: I was recenlty in the SA, and I've been to US in 2018 when my son was born... she cuts.

😕
I didn't even have stenght to worry about again. I kukuma carried by bluen paper and said thank you.

gateleo:


Well, to the best of my knowledge, For US schools, there is nothing like length of stay of funds..Once you have the money in your account, just print your statement and send to your sch...you can withdraw the money immediately. I printed my statement since January this year and I just submitted same statement to my sch as POF and I30 issued this month despite the statement showing January date..

BigIyanga:

Did you pay in full all medical expenses related to your children’s birth and care in the US?
Also, did your partner/wife travel to US to have your babies with B1/B2 visa?

BigIyanga:

Ijyoma:
Guys, please is something wrong with using a politician as a sponsor? People are saying it's a red flag and I'm wondering why or how that is, when almost all our politicians have families abroad. Please share with me, let me reassure a friend that is fretting over this. Thanks.
