@Dasleeky, thanks for the response.
Just checked the FMJ site and my SEVIS receipt is out but with an error on my address. The country on the address was Benin instead of Nigeria. I think its was because i made the payment in Benin Republic.

@wilfem, I not scared of november. I've attended interviews where i stoood no chance at all but God gave me victory. I believe He will do it again.
Regarding the visa lottery thing, its not a determinant of who gets an F1 visa or not. The VO has no prior information about u until u appear before him. Then he uses the bar code number on the DS160 to call up your information on His screen. I had the same reservations on this dv thing too.
ALL THOSE WHO HAVE ALREADY APPLIED FOR DV LOTTERY CAN CONTINUE WITH THEIR F1 APPLICATION WITHOUT FEAR. FOR THOSE WHO HAVE NOT APPLIED, DON'T.

@OjaP, allow me to celebrate your courage you have shown by posting you problems on this thread. It will go a long way to educate prospective applicants on how to go about their study in the US. I want u to know that the trust you have for this house have not been betrayed by the responses of a few. You can try transfering after this semester to a cheaper school. One of such is university of south dakota, vermillion.

@savemysoul, as far as I am concerned, red flags can be surmounted if u can defend yourself quickly and sharply.
1. 36yrs going for first degree is a red flag. This can however be countered by the fact that you have a HND and have been working for sometime.

Don't look at your weapons only. Also look at your strengths. You have a family and that is a very strong tie to your country.

The mail i sent to my school's grad admission officer has started yeilding results. I got a reply from her that my documents have been sent to my dept since sept 17. Almost immediately, a reply came from the dept that they have reached a decision and informed the grad school since sept 23rd. I just hope the person in charge will just do his/her job and send me my I20.
