Hello, congratulations on your visa approval��.. Well I got a question on your visa did you see a no change of status(NOS) on it, I heard that trumph said Nigerians can’t change their status?...

Let me get back to you on this. Maybe send me a PM

Visa approved 30th of October. I've been a silent reader on here for a while. Thank you to everyone who has contributed! Here is my transcript.

VO: Good morning sir, pass me your passport.
Me: Good morning
VO: Alabama!
Me: Yes
VO: why did you choose Alabama
Me: I chose Alabama because the research interests of my advisor matches well with mine and I also felt very welcomed by the department, so I'm very happy to be going there.
VO: Chemical engineering? What kind of chemistry will you be doing?
Me in my mind "I'm not doing chemistry o"
Me: I'll be working on heterogeneous catalysis
VO: Catalysis? So you'll be working with catalysts. Is that organic chemistry?
Me: No, it's physical chemistry.
VO: did you apply to other schools?
Me: yes, I applied to 9 schools in all. Should name them?
VO: *shrugs* I don't really care. What's the most prestigious one you applied to?
Me: University of Michigan
VO: and you're going to Bama?
Me: well, Michigan didn't admit me.
VO: which schools admitted you then?
Me: Stevens, MTU and Alabama.
VO: alright. Have you travelled out of Nigeria before?
Me: yes

Me: told him...
VO: which states in Nigeria have you lived?
Me: Lagos and Ogun
VO: so you went to covenant?
Me: yes
VO: are you married?
Me: (in my head- babe sef I no get �) No, I'm not married
VO: any kids?
Me: NO sir
VO: okay, I'll be approving your visa, take this slip to window 22 and pay your reciprocity. Have a great time at Alabama. Best of luck

My interview felt a little longer than other people that were in the hall same time as me. From what I've noticed from reading other transcripts is that the two VOs have some interest in chemistry. It seems they asked lots of chemistry related questions lol. It was a chilled interview, felt more like gisting even though my heart was racing like crazy�. My advice is that you should be confident in your answers and as long as you have been invested in your admission process I don't think you should be thrown off by unexpected questions. Congrats to everyone that has been approved, and success to all others interviewing soon .

Did anyone have their interview yesterday or today?

Anybodie:
Thanks Aderin0la

Any need to go with passport photograph?

Spring1000:
Same. I'm frustrated at this point.

Send an email to Lagos niv email requesting an emergency appointment, they'll reply you with a link to fill a form and file your request

Cocao:
