You guys that are going 4 Ʊя̲̅ interview pretty soon, I wanna tell You that do not expect the VO †̥ ask You some questions You feel can improve your chance of getting the visa. Instead, look Fø̲̣̣я̅ a way 2 drag or force the VO †̥ ask dat question like in your first 2 †̥ 3 answers make sure You presented yourself well and organise all your strong points in those statements. Fø̲̣̣я̅ instance,
What are Ʊ going †̥ do in US?
Correct answer like: †̥ study masters in .... @ ...university. Here You must be conversant ωΐт̃ђ your course, department and school.
Second questn; Why US?
Correct answer like; US Ȋ̝̊̅§ well known 4 its outstanding level of education ωΐт̃ђ flexible course curriculum, practically oriented, and finish it ωΐт̃ђ US degree Ȋ̝̊̅§ well recognised, respected and accepted in Nigeria and this will give You edge over your mates in securing your dream job in Nigeria.
Why Bleep university?
good research and laboratory facilities in your school and make sure You find a name of one professor in your department that You can say ure interested in his research coz this area of research Ȋ̝̊̅§ highly needed in Nigeria (our owns' country).......Chikena Ʊ don hammer the interview be dat and Ʊ gonna see that any other questions d VO gonna ask You will be within that answers...Your financial and every other docz shd be handy.
Make sure You are well prepared on what Ʊя̲̅ course Ȋ̝̊̅§ all about and what type of research You wanna do and a little bit of how Ʊ can do dat...Hope Ʊ get what I'm trying 2 say? Success 2u as I contribute M̶̲̥̅Ɣ own quota.

Really appreciate your contribution on dis; but I did my NYSC in 2011 and since then hav bn working as an IT officer in a ABC bank up till date

poopppyLiillyy: I was denied my F1 visa yesterday and dis how d interview went;

VO;why ar u going to d USA?
Me;to pursue my master of science in ....at .... Uni.
VO;how many schools do u apply too?
Me;5(named them)
VO;what was ur undergraduate major?
Me;......
Vo;who is sponsoring you?
Me;my Dad
V0;.What does he do?
Me;....
VO;how much does he earn?(Showed her d finiancial docs,but she couldn't check,so she just askd)just tell me how much?
Me;....per month
VO;did u write any exams?
Me;my course doesnt require any and I was giving a letter from my school.(Showed her d letter)(she collected it,checked and looked for my I-20,looked and threw back my exam letter at me.she asked for my admission letter,checked also and give it back and later told me I was denied)
What happend is I did an interview for fall bt was denied,so I only contacted my school for another I-20,and I totally forgot to ask them for another docs lik a new admssion letter,so it was still d same dated docs for fall that I took for a spring interview.
But now I av new docs,paid for another interview and I automatically got Oct 22 for another appointment,am so scared its too early and close.So scared I might be denied even entry for d interview talkless of being granted on any ground.Am thinkn its too close and dey can deny me due to that,cos I did one 18 Oct and got another 22.Pls I need an advice fast on what to do.is it safe for me to go.......pls advice me,its just monday and am pretty scared.

poopppyLiillyy:


@masterprad am waiting pls.d VO questions were just straight and forward with a one word answers...so no time to be explaining what and what ur plans or other docs of ties ar.So what should I do now?should I go?
One more thing,I changed sponsor from my step-bro in d first interview to my dad in d 2nd one,hope that's nt also a denial factor?dou am nt planning to change again.

Cuddlemii:

Oh, I thought its the old scale too

Anthonymighty: Can anyone please tell me the cost for Toefl exam and also where I can pay for it and write my exam. I checked the website and found available dates I can write but no info on how to pay for it in Nigeria here and text centre. Abeg make una help me. I just wanna do it because of these oyinbo dem for embassy because my school didn't require it.

seadog1: Is my score ok judging wit d new scale?

ferdiii:

Gimme ur e-mail addy. Am in Jos, so can't suggest. But if you would want me to do it for you. Lemme know, I relate that to my people in the US.

Euma: esther.uma@ng.airtel.com

thanks

kpolli:

No it's not

ferdiii:

O boy how difficult was it for? I fear the reading. Did u prepare well with a book? Score should be within 170 each and under 6.0 for writing.

ferdiii:
You've mails!

ferdiii:
You've mails!

ferdiii:

Bsc,Ms or Phd?

Anthonymighty: Regarding the English Proficiency. I emailed my school for waiver and here is what she said:

Hello Anthony, attached is your updated decision letter. In terms of a TOEFL waiver letter we don’t process these letters for any student. Your decision letter will suffice to give to your embassy for proof of full acceptance. In regards to the new DCF documents you sent to us they were received on October 12th.

That's what she said. But I know these VO dem no dey like hear say you no do the exam. Score might not matter. Just do the exam right?

seadog1: 170 is supposed to b d overal score for each session.

poopppyLiillyy:


Wow,thanks a lot!but what of if d VO doesn't ask any of those Questions like Why US or d school? Cos both weren't askd from me in my 2previous interviews.

I just think there is somtn more than all the Qstns this ppl need that we don't knw,cos I was confidence enough,in fact confidence isn't the Problem.Mayb they just enjoy wastn our money or d seen d game of desperation in us,cos me ehn,I don tire o!!!

dnpasion: House please I need your advice. On my I-20, it was beeen written and I quote "This School Requires English Proficiency" and under they wrote " The student has the required English Proficiency". Does this mean that they have given me a waiver in writing Toefl? Because the school told me that its not necessary for student from nigeria to write it and I was been given admission without the exam. So please I need u guys to explain in details to me what they meant by the sentences I quoted above. Thanks

walex57:
Yeah it means they are satisfied with your English proficiency, and so no need for TOEFL but as an amour, you can still take a letter or email printout from your school saying in clear terms that it was actually waived....just gather yourself together and go with faith, confidence and favor. all the best

mr swagger: Thanks @jimtosam for the encouragement and motivation. I am already doing that. This time I am looking for lower and cheap universities that is easy to gain admission. Most top universities in the US are very difficult to gain admission. Time is not by my side anymore, I have to be fast b4 dem go say I am too old to go to any university in USA. Thanks...

Euma: Thanks ferdiii,
Do you know of any centre here in lagos where one can register?
