I’ve been a silent reader on this platform and a lot of transcripts here have helped me, so I’d also be sharing mine. I was the 5th person to be interviewed but the 1st one to be interviewed by the VO that attended to me.
She was a black American lady with small pink lips🥰
Immediately she opened her window she called me to come forward, which I did.

VO: What are your plans with this degree in this school?
Me: Studying sociology will help me in acquiring more knowledge in social theories, critical thinking and data analysis, this will help me in achieving my career goal which is to take up a job with *****. The current CEO of ***** is someone I met when I volunteered to work with **** in sensitizing women about the dangers and preventions of sexual exploitation. Upon the end of my voluntary work I was promised a position and I look forward to graduating in time and coming back to focus on that. It’s also one of my career goal to start up an NGO that would focus on the prohibition of human trafficking in women and young girls specifically, It is also very important for me to be close to my aging mom who isn’t getting any younger.

VO: Who is sponsoring you?
Me: I would be sponsored by a family friend whom I have known since childhood, when the need for me to school abroad came up he had a conversation with my mom and offered to sponsor me in honor of the relationship that both families share

VO: What does your sponsor do
Me: He’s a software engineer by profession and works with Microsoft, he also owns an Africa food store in the US

VO: What do you do?
Me: I am currently a student at the university of ***** but due to the incessant strike it became necessary for me to school in a more predictable academic environment, hence the need to school abroad.
(VO nods in approval to my ds 160)

VO: Where would you be staying?
Me: I will be staying with my sponsor until my on-campus accommodation is sorted out.

VO: When did you graduate high school?
Me: I graduated high school in 2018 and gained admission in 2019(VO nods again)

VO: When is your program start date?
Me: Uhhhmmm(I really did this, I thought about it for like two secs) August, August 20th to be precise.

VO: Do you have any friends or family in the US?
Me: No, just my sponsor.

VO: Do you have siblings?
Me: Yes, I have two siblings

VO: Older or younger?
Me: Older. I am the last

VO: Where are they?
Me: My brother is in Lagos and my sister is here in Abuja

VO: What do they do?
Me: My Sister works with **** and my brother works with ****
VO: Typing….. (and then proceeds to pass me my i20 without my passport but I didn’t notice she added the white paper to the i20) keeps typing..
Your visa has been approved( proceeds to tell me how I can collect it and saying something relating to the white paper but I didn’t hear.)
Me: Thank you mam, thank you( she smiles and then I walk away)

Note: From my experience, she didn’t ask for any documents or any proof, she seemed to be paying more tension to what I was saying and what I filled in my ds160. I noticed that whenever I said something corresponding to what I filled in my ds 160 she’d nod her head and with all these questions my interview still didn’t last up to 1min highest I’d say 45secs.
Thank you all for assisting me without even knowing it🙏🏾
