Travel / Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 15 by Benifbond: 7:53pm On Nov 30, 2019
Lizamegabush:
Good day every one, I must confess that naira land is the best place to be for visa enquiries and the rest, I am kinda new on the platform but have been following up ever since I joined the platform.
I was denied of visa on the 15th of November 2019 but have rescheduled for another visa appointment at Abuja embassy for 5th of December, although the previous visa interview was at Lagos consulate but due to the fact that my school resumes on the 13th of January I reapplied but didn't see a good date at the Lagos consular so I went for that of Abuja, I will be sharing my first visa experience although it was quite brief but I will also be sharing my supposed visa conversation for my next Visa interview.
At the Lagos consulate, appointment time was 6:45am I arrived by 6:05 am but was delayed as I didn't print my SEVIS proof of payment , I went to the cafe and those guys frustrated my life when they said that my SEVIS payment has not reflected on the site , since on August 2019 , ah I nearly piss for my trouser, they printed a made up letter and gave to me to present on the place of SEVIS proof of payment and collected 2k from me, so I joined the queue and got to the point where I was asked for SEVIS proof of payment , I presented the made copy the cafe guys gave to me and the man looked at me like what!!!! and he wrote no SEVIS on my DS 160 and asked me to proceed , I went in for the interview but later discovered that some of us on my queue skipped the thumbprint session, so we had to go back for the thumbs print, I was praying that I be directed to the guy on window 9 as he was so calm and relaxed unlike the guys on window 6 and 7 but unfortunately , I was directed to the guy on window 6 and this was how the interview went.
Vo: Good morning
Me: went straight to meet him and I responded good morning sir.
Vo: your i20 and passport please
Me: quickly passed it to him
Vo: so why are you going to the us
Me: I am going to the university of central Oklahoma to do my masters in public administration to major in public non profit management.
Vo: why this course?
Me: the degree will help me with qualities such as * fund raising capabilities and at this point I went blank and couldn't remember anything , so i had to repeat same point again and he cuts in
vo: who is your sponsor?
Me: my father chief Ezenwa I was about to complete my sentence and he gave the yellow paper and said sorry at this point you are not eligible for the us visa , try again.
God I felt as if I was in out of life �����
So I got home and immediately got another visa appointment same day but this time around Abuja embassy for the 5th of December 2019.
Total school fees :$23600
But I gain a Global diversity scholarship which is $8000 About 32% discount from the Total school fees and this will last for two years of my masters program as I will be given$4000 each year of my study.
So my new proposed transcript is as follows.
Vo:where are you going to
Me: I am going to the university of central Oklahoma (uco) for my masters in public administration and non profit management.
Vo: why this course?
Me: this degree will prepare professionally to widen my horizon in The aspect of leadership and management skills, as I have The intention to return to Nigeria after my program to apply for the office of chief protocol officer in the ministry of labour and employment federal republic of NIGERIA, and with This degree I will stand a better chance for such job, and I will serve as a leader or attain key roles in the government Bodies, this degree will not limit me to government organization alone, as some private corporations such as the news and broad casting organization loves to hire those with masters in public administration for policy analysis and international organization management.
Vo:how many school did you apply to
Me:3 schools
Vo: name them
Me: Oklahoma State.university(osu) in still water, University of North Texas(until) in long beach and University of central Oklahoma (uco) in Edmond.
Vo: why did you choose uco
Me: I made my research and I discovered that uco has a flexible system of learning as students are allowed to create a customised system of learning such as * field studies, * internship*work shop* and independent studies so that they can be able to complete their degree faster.
Vo:how will you utilize this degree back home.
Me' after the completion of my masters, I plan coming home to take over from my family business and move it to a thriving State as I will be the one to do so in few years to come, and I also will go into partnership with the the (NDE) and some higher institution so that we can be able to establish an (Ngo) where I will be raising young minds on how to create a business of Their choice and also training them on how to become great leaders of tommorow as opposed to what we have currently in the country.
Vo: who is your sponsor?
Me : my uncle
Vo: in your previous application you stated your father as your sponsor , why now your uncle?
Me: my father has been so very ill of lately and I can not ascertain the outcome of event in the future , so my Uncle chose to take the responsibility.

I am so sorry if this is quite long but I will be so glad if the professionals in the platform can look into this, I am open to take corrections and adhere to any necessary development , thanks.


the two reasons behind u coming back to Nigeria are contradictory , telling a vo that u will come back to from known to unknown (searching for a job in nigeria that has nothing is not real), expect u are coming to take up family business.

, the two reasons behind your course of study are contradictory, telling a vo that u want to come back and search for job in this dry country is not realistic expect u are coming back to take up family business. i suggest you create a continuous line of story that's realistic.

God is able to do what no other can do,He control the affairs of men.
I started my application as every other person, I was admitted last winter but was unable to pursue it because my sponsor asked me to wait a little while. After my second admission this summer, I booked for an interview . I'm sorry I didn't post my transcript ,u will understand why later on. My interview was scheduled on the 9th January, a few days to that I called my sponsor for my blocking only for him to tell me that he lost a huge amount of money,God so kind he didn't say I shouldn't go. I traveled to Lagos on the 06/01/2019.
I got to the embassy around 6am. Unknowingly to me, I didn't duplicate the Block account opening confirmation which made Mr. Paulinus to send me back.
After the duplication, I never knew that I ought to have duplicated my SOP, when Mr paulinus noticed I didn't Photocopy my SOP the man nearly send me packing, on reaching to the VO,she asked for the same thing.
My interview was an informal conversation, It looked as if we knew each other before( na fun I swear). Na the VO later photocopy the SOP.
On my way back, I slightly escape a fatal accident that took a man's life on the spot.
About 4 weeks later, I got my AM requesting that I sent
1: Passport
2: 6 months travel insurance

After sending my passport on the 06/03/2019( I was scared bcs no evidence of funding)
I got a mail from the embassy, asking me why did I choose 14/04/2019 as my travelling date knowing fully well that my semester starts on 01/04/2019.
I quickly replied to them that it's an error, that I meant March not April. The next day I got a second mail from the embassy requesting for a valid 6 month Health Insurance starting from 14 March 2019. I subscribed that with Faith and I forwarded it via email on the 12 March 2019.
That same night, I read a post here were a person that had similar case was later asked to present “Evidence of funding” that post alone nearly killed me. I lost hope.
On 18/03/2019 I got a call from a courier service that they have my parcel.
19 /04/2019 I picked my parcel Lo and behold my Visum was approved.

This was approved without BA or SL

I strongly believe that with God all things are possible. He specializes in things that are impossible. I believe he will do the same to you. Amen. Thank God for my friends who never ceased sounding faith to me.

Hi,
How much did you pay as via fee?
I know it's 75 euros, I'd like to confirm the amount when changed.


During my interview I was told by Mr paulinus that it's 30500 but the Vo collected 30000 instead

Hey guys, currently filling out the visa application form

Please do I tick the part where it says I intend to stay no longer than 12 months. Do I tick that part considering my program is 18 months? Thank you

Do I also type or use a pen to fill out the form??
To the first part of your question, do not thick it since your program is more than 12 months
2nd part: u are meant to fill the form with pen.
Hope that helps. daalụ

Good evening guys, am new here, I already went tru daad.de . I want to proceed for my masters but I don't have a block(ed) account or someone that can help with a letter of sponsorship so I can proceed with my admission process. I will really appreciate opinions and if possible get some help with the letter of sponsorship.

Thanks in advance

there are options, either scholarship, blocked account or SL. But the first thing first.
If u don't have any hope at all at all of having blocked account or SL ,then try scholarship though the chances are slim yet favour still dey follow people ooo.

Even in the presence of 'NO Hope" try to have "Faith".move on with the admission process ur faith may see u tru.

Sometimes God do provide helpers along the way, just take a bold step of faith, many that started this process had no hope of shi shi(penny) but along the way, God made a way where there's none so don't give up.

Get the admission, then move on. Daalụ (Danke)

Ndkings1:


After summing up everything together, you multiply the result by 1.5
I stand to be corrected
I thought ECTs/CP is gotten by multiplying total credit units accumulated by 1.5
Eg. Physics with credit unit of 3
Its ECTs would be 3×1.5=4.5
Though that's what i did ooo
It has nothing to do with ur grade in that course. Just only the credit unit

Thanks alot for this info. But I someone should help me on the below;

2. Will I see a prepaid courier envelop at the embassy?

However, I had called the phone number from Germany website: 09029905159 relating an issue during my filling of the National Visa Application Form. Then I was told that, aside the appointment confirmation email, I will need to request for a gate pass (permit) from the Consulate General, and that the Consulate General will have to Authorize my appointment. And for this I am required to pay the sum of N30,000.00

The below account details were sent via phone to make the payment;
Bank Name: UBA
Account No.: 2113226928
Account Name: RICHARD EFE

A beg, guys, how we take do our own. Because, I dey smell fraud here oooo.
