Yvete:

I had to re-think this whole thing. Admittedly, my conscience won't let me see you in the wrong so I will break it all down for you. See how sweet I am? Sweet as pie!

1. You need to be present in the US at least by January 9 to do this with housing already in place or you may defer till summer '13 preferably . You don't seem ready
2. I explained the transfer process before. Go find it in previous pages, okay?
3. Hope you've already filled and printed the I-20 transfer request form. It should be on the schools' website. Whatever school you choose.
3. The first morning after arrival, contact MSU to inform them of your transfer due to financial difficulties and obtain the Intl Student Advisor report (You may have to go there in person). Find out before leaving Nigeria.
4. That same morning after arrival, take both forms to the CC Intl student's office.
4. The state of TX requires meningitis immunization for Intl Students under 30 before enrollment ($150). Do this the same day.
** Don't bother about Health insurance. Insurance provided by CCs are affordable.
** Don't bother about providing any bank statements because you've got the visa already. Please make arrangement for the tuition that can cover at least 1 year before leaving, just in case.
** If you'd be attending DCC, apply to Richland campus @ Dallas. You could meet Nigerians/other Intl Students that you can share apartment with, and also, commuting by bus is easier. If you choose HCCS, attend the Alief campus too for the same reasons mentioned. You can also choose any CC outside Texas. Accessible bus route and housing is a priority.


Plead with whoever it is to take a day off to help you. Everyone in the US is in a rush and if they're not willing, don't get mad cos' such is life! Hope everything works out for it.

imperiouxx: To whoever likes this, my supervisor just gave me some science career journals: CAREER TRENDS (industry or Academia) gotten from this website http://sciencecareers.sciencemag.org/ and I wish to share it with you science guys (sorry my other colleagues like mamacita4bonita ). It's about science jobs after schooling.

Andre Ogara: lol very funny. That's exactly what I meant. I heard about wakanow.com but the site is confusing with all the mashed colours and ads creeping out of every crevice. So how do I fly to Chicago from Lagos?

kpolli:

You enter a bus to Mushin, from there another bus to Oshodi, Mile II. . . Do not stop at Oshodi, drop at Mile II. . . Then take bike to Seme, when you get to Seme, call me, I would come and pick you up

But seriously u can use connecting flights, it's always cheapest to fly to JFK. . . Then proceed to Chicago via local flight

Yvete: Lol...the one that's already close to me is a handful. This morning she was like, "I know you're kind of tired of me , abii?" Just so that I'll say something. I laughed and replied, I can't be tired of you, but I'm sick of the 'people-pleasing wahala' associated with you. hahahaaa!

talk2D: To VIU applicant : how did you come across the school?
You probably heard that their admission is very sure but you didn't wait to ask if the visa(koko) to study in a school like that is sure.
Use their application fees to apply into 3 standard schools and u re fine!
