just go for it ..... GOD will definitely see you through. #MOVE

MsNas:
I have a few questions for you...

1. What is your major?
2. What city/State are you going to?
3. Care to tell me what you need the $2000 for in the beginning? I mean break it down for me...
4. What do you do presently in Nigeria?


Answer those questions and I can give answers to your concerns based on your answers to the questions I asked above



From your answers, I will advise you to go for it. You're in the STEM field and you have a good chance of landing a job. I don't know much about RI (Rhode Island), but from my research about the town, it's a pretty small town. Cost of living is low You have a high survival chance. I don't know why your school is insisting you pay for health insurance upfront though, most schools will put it in your student bill and you can pay later. Contact the International Student Office or the Students Accounts Office to be double sure about the payment.

Try and connect with Nigerian students who are currently studying in the same school, they might help out with accommodation for a while, pending when you start getting your paycheck. If not, try to hustle the money from Nigeria and pay back when you get your checks. All in all, it's worth a shot and you'll be a fool (excuse my language, ) to pass up on this opportunity. You've got a really good offer that many would kill for. Don't throw it away.
