If I'm not mistaken... I think what the url you're using is doing is course-by-course evaluation...


Course/code Units Grade
MAT 101 3 A
CSC 101 3 A etc.... Hence you'll need your student copy of your transcript to achieve this.

macsilver:



Well detailed, thank you!

I have problems converting the cgpa to 4.0 on their website as it is asking for credit hours. Etc and I don’t even understand. Please just assume you’re explaining to a 10 year old… help me please
Plus I have my masters… do I have to evaluate both or just my highest degree? Thank you in anticipation

With my little experience in researching about US grad schs... It's not about your 2.1/2.2 rather your CGPA after converting to /4.

Most US grad schools accept 3.0 and above/4. so when you say 2.2 in Naija setting.. someone who finished with 3.27-3.49/5 in naija setting na 2.2... but when you convert that same CGPA to US standard.. you'll be surprised it's a lil above 3.0 which is the minimum requirement for most US grad schs... Some schs accept 2.75 sef.. All boils down to researching the requirements of the schools you want to apply to.

Rocice:
Pls can someone recommend any schools in US offering admission to a 2.2 grade
I' m trying to streamline my application to a handful of schools cause of application fee
Thanks alot

For me, I feel there must have been a misrepresentation on your DS-160 form.... Just my opinion though. Cos the transcript posted looks to good to be rejected. something is not right somewhere.

You need to know if the school you're applying to has Spantran for evaluation. Else your evaluation won't be valid oooooo....

Most schools will list the evaluation bodies they're accepting evaluation from.

So sorry about your nephew....

Per the transcript, you'll narrate it yourself.

Primrose9ja:
Good day everyone, please how do one get the transcript after the visa interview, is it sent by mail or how?

Secondly, my nephew just did his interview(he was admitted to Houston Community College), he was asked his highest degree and sponsor, then given the blue paper, where could he have gotten it wrong?

We intend reapplying immediately...

Congratulations to you.. From what have been seeing people post here, keep on searching.

You never can tell, a date may pop up when you least expected. Another option is going via expedited visa appointment(which should be done 60 days to your program commencement).

Congratulations again, wish you the very best. Mind sharing name of grad sch?

I just got an admission for January and there is no visa interview date till February
Should I defer the admission or is there another way to go about it?

Any PhD program you're applying for in each school has their requirements. Hence, what you should lookout for is the requirements from each school as no one here will categorically tell you if you'll get full funding or not. Just my opinion ni oooo


gozmoc8167:
Good afternoon gurus in the house. Sorry to derail this thread. Please I wrote the GRE and got the following scores :
Quant - 153
Verbal 158
AWA 4.0

My question is: can I secure full funding with this score given that my undergraduate CGPA is 4.32/5.0 in Electrical Engineering?
The desired program is PhD/masters in Electrical Engineering.
Thanks in anticipation of your replies.

3rd attempt at Abuja on August 24 gave me the long await VISA APPROVAL

After my rejection on June 28, I reapplied and available date was December 15. I deferred till Spring 2021.While wait for updated I-20, I keep checking available dates and re-applying for EA. EA was rejected 3 times at ABUJA from July- August 15,2021.On August 16 EA was APPROVED and I changed to September 24 with the hope that I can still make fall 2021 or just wait till Spring 2022. On August 21 I requested for another EA and it was approved within 25 minutes. Available dates was August 24 from September 24, I could not pick the date. It was so close and I stay in Lagos while interview is Abuja. (Friday 21 is not far from Tuesday 24) .After consulting my friends and wife, I picked August 24. Monday night I enter Abuja, after serious prayer and fasting.
10.AM with a young white lady.
V.O : I see you are going to Eastern Michigan UNI. with 100%G.A to for a doc. degree in Eng. Tech.
Me: I said yes ma and i completed the statement by mentioning my area of conc.
V.O : what will you do after this?
me: I will return to Nig. to take the position of the country manager in R&grin in my company
V.O: SHE checked where i work in her system and mentioned it.
me: Yes ma.
v.o: Is your wife travelling with you?
ME: No, she enjoys her career here in Nig. she works in an oil n gas firm( I mentioned the name) as Professional accountant and she has given her support and consent to start the program.
V.O: your VISA will be approved.
ME: I was shocked, just like that. All the questions i prepared for have not been asked. I tried to pay attention to what she was saying after getting the white paper but i did not hear much other corvid 19.... restriction.
I was crying that wao...... this is God. People taught I was rejected. Mean while i dressed very very causal and people were actually looking at me that do i really come for interview. Thank God for everything. This is just to encourage someone, don't give up until you hit the target.


See you at the top.

No offence.... But new Comer too should either start from page 1 or go to Google to get the basics as you don't expect anyone to tell you the ABC.... There are some basics you should research yourself... Pursing grad studies requires adequate research even if you're fed with the needed information. Again... No offense. We move.

3. Clarkston University
4. University of Arkansas at little rock
5. University of Texas, Rio Grande Valley
