Munaxara:

Why would you say that?

Good university, good experience

TWoods:


How is blatant fraud like this permitted on here? And to think your ID is "God of fire"... hilarious.

Choose a better school

Munaxara:
Who got admission for Missouri state university?

Look for better school oga

[quote author=misslag post=100207694][/quote]
Multiple reasons for your general benefits. Stay away from Midwest and far north. Look at public schools in texas, maryland, florida, georgia.

misslag:
Hello house, Please did anyone apply to Ohio university,MA international development and has gotten admission.

Apply to other schools in the south or north East

barleeh:
I got admitted for PhD in civil Engineering at Illinois institute of Technology Chicago, Trying to process my 1-20 document ASAP, is there anyone in the house that got admitted in the same school, let’s relate, what level at u at for the processing of d I-20 document and visa appointment. Thank you

When you get your visa, get warm clothing and shoes. It's cold and expensive especially this covid season.

It's been a long time☺️☺️

What if your school was located in one of those 'fancy' areas? Would you rather live an hour away from school? The point is that you can study anywhere you can afford the cost of living, and very easily move to anywhere you want once you graduate. Forget about 'big cities'...for now

Chicago and new york have excellent transport facilities wether by train or by bus. Some schools even offer permanent or temporary free transportation card to students around that particular that city.i am talking of saving 1200$ out of someones annual budget. Buying a car and maintaining the bills can be a heavy burden for students on low budget.

mrkhaynoni:


Can you explain a bit more why u suggest big cities or why medical related?

Bigger cities are more diverse in culture, more housing options, transportation etc things to help you settle down on time

biikeys:


1. Selecting universities in big cities if you don't have extra funds lying around is just setting up yourself for trouble. Have you considered the cost of living in those cities? You can school in a farm and relocate to a city after graduation.

2. There are lots of good non-medical related programs out there. So you're advising an Engineer for example to into nursing??

3. I think if anyone doesn't know this by now, they shouldn't even have bothered looking for schools in the first instance

1. The cost of living depends on the location of the place. For example if you school in a big city like Chicago you have plenty of cheap housing options.its not a must to live in fancy areas

2. I do not know about engineering programs but i am advising first timers like high school student. The job demand in medical field can never die with what i see here

shayhune:


And where in the US must you not be financially capable

Dead zone: Is it the same Ohio that I'm in?

I am talking about saving the extra cost of monthly expenses. For example the school i attended is well funded and offers student free transportation around the city saving you extra cost of spending money on public transport and car expenses. There are other benefits too i do not want to publicly mention

shayhune:


And where in the US must you not be financially capable

Dead zone: Is it the same Ohio that I'm in?

Oga na dead zone you de.


What is public transportation like over there compared to living in bigger cities i mention previously? ?

Did your school offer you benefits like free transportation around the city like i do ??


What are minimum wage jobs like for student to support their upkeep monthly?

imperiouxx:


You sure about what you're saying here, big cities? NY?



You mean even if I'm a non science student who can't even stand biology or the like?

Im talking about job prospects after school.

Gospelozy:
Thank you. Please is Ohio a big city?

Dead zone. Do not go there unless you are financially capable.

Small advise for those aspiring to genuinely study in America.
1. Choose a university in one of the big cities.i.e new york
2. Go for medical related programs.
3. Make sure you hold money wella or get scholarship
Goodluck

Please house,
Who know how long it will take for documents sent to institution from WES for verification.

Also,the reply from school to WES is usually through which medium (E-mail Or Postal ) ?

Was Wes the only option given? I'll advise you use ierf 2 weeks at Max or look for other schools that do not require evaluation/verification

lummydunmi:
hello house.....AM NEW HERE AND I WOULD YOU GUYS TO SORT ME OUT ON MY MAJOR QUESTIONS PLEASE... I read through the few pages and i was blessed i did.

1) i have 4.0/5 in my first degree and i wanna ask if its a good base to get scholarship,funding (GA)...and what are other requirements needed and if its test scores of both TOEFL and GRE.. What should be aiming for scores.....Thank you so much

2) if am to pay 20,000usdollars for my graduate program. is the payment due for renewal just for a year or 20,000usdollars for the duration of the whole programme. Thanks....God will honour you all

Buy credit and call the school admission office, they would tell you what to do. As for GA, it's left to the department to decide. I'll advise you write only gre since you want to save money. The second question will be answered when you pass the gre exam

No, that's not what I mean. I don't know if 3rd class makes it easier or harder to get UG admission. I don't think there's a general rule for this. I mean it was harder for my friend to get Graduate admission. He was applying for Master's programs but they all rejected him (Again, maybe he searched the wrong places. some schools could have offered him conditional admission... I don't know and I can't guess). Only one school offered him UG admission and they told him his scores were too low for Graduate admission. They further explained that even his Toefl was low but they were admitting him because he had a foundation in the discipline due to his time in Unilag and they were giving him a chance. This boy na rich man pikin o, his parents were willing to sponsor him to Uzbekistan sef if to say na wetin him want as in... money no be problem. He's telling me how he's soon going to start playing for his school's basketball team.

Again, don't say sureb0y made you go ahead with anything ooooo... it's just my advice. Seek other opinions and look up more information similar to your case online and decide what you think is best for you. I just know it's doable sha.

Sure boy. Text me your name. My number is 347-414-3159

Abeg who dey Chicago, I need help to the nearest bus station/fastest to Michigan

sureb0y:


Lmao, "bagging that Master's with good grades" means I shouldn't look at girls or enjoy my life? People are different, some people need to shut out all the flexing in their life, sleep in libraries, read materials over and over to succeed. Some people know as e dey go, they grab things easily and look at yansh! they still pass. I'm fine bro, I know what works for me. Thanks for your advice tho. Cos I post things here doesn't mean I'm an olodo o. I get plan and I'm not thinking in one direction. I'll be fine. thanks.

I need your contact Bro. I want to be your friend

DeeTus:
Yes i understand the urge. Nevertheless, when buying a ticket, make it an open ticket and send a call card to your agent, he or she would be happy.

Even if, there's a change in price, she will not add so much money. Some agents have cheaper tickets than airlines' outlets because they usually get discount like my agent. I call her pilot

Pls connect me to your agent.

femi321:

Good day sir, pls how does one buy tickets from air maroc??

Please how do I go about booking a flight? ? Lagos to Michigan??

Visa approved on Tuesday Morning. 7 am.
I cannot say whether I gained from this thread or not but I enjoyed reading transcripts and I love to share my experience and post thoughts.i am neither happy nor excited.

5 years ago, I was at the embassy for education advisory services for counseling and orientation. I ruled the US out my my options due to the sad and hard visa experiences and how Nigerians are treated all in the name of getting a visa. May God continue to punish our thieving leaders with different diseases for making our country unbearable for the masses. (Forgive me for using such statements)

I felt degraded and kind of lost morale and interest in getting the visa after spending hours on the queue with security checks and bio-metrics. I got into the so called interview hall and found people giving all sort of excuses and reasons to be in the USA. For my mind I was swearing for our past leaders who failed to improve our educational system /economy .

I was surprised to listen to the interview of a man who applied for immigrant but was refused due to the fact he couldn't tell the vo his date of birth. I lost morale on the spot when I listen to other interviews. At that time, I was certain I too had forgotten my name. Tension was every where.

From the entrance at windows 5,The vo drilled a young man for 6 mins or so. I stared at him and swallowed the saliva in my mouth when we had eye contact.i quickly removed my face and told god not to move me to this window 5. I was hoping to be interviewed by one of the female vo but little did I know that I was wrong. Low and behold I ended up at window 5. A middle aged man was denied in front of me as the vo found out that he lied about his purpose of traveling. At that moment my head went blank. All the practicing and ginger left me as I met the same vo.

Me- good morning sir
Vo- no answer( for my mind I say my own done be today) what is your purpose of traveling to the United States ?
Me - I am going to svsu for my msc in comms in Michigan (stammering, I'm a stammer)
Vo-no why did you chose svsu ??
Me- svsu has good academic facilities and good lecturers (still stammering while the vo was typing and wasn't looking or listening to me). He cuts me. At that point I lost morale because I didn't really express my self I lost eye contact.
Vo.- how many schools did you apply to
Me- I told him 3 (at this point I my head was down while he was staring at me and asking questions) the vo mentioned the other school on my behalf and I said yes.

Vo- when did you graduate?
Me- I told him
Vo- what have you been doing since then?
Me - I told him my job functions still stammering and heads down. Truth was that I was expecting the blue paper at this point.
Vo- says something I didn't hear and hands me a paper I didn't bother to look at. At this point I forgot my passport was not returned back to me. It was outside the consulate I met some other guys who asked me how did my interview go. It was then I was reminded that I was approved as I realized that my passport wasn't returned and I clearly saw the color of the paper in broad daylight as the vo didn't circle anything.

no documents were asked for as the vo continued to ask me questions that needed a yes and no answers.i was lucky i guess

I want to thank the likes of dickoflife and olan who helped me with mock interviews. Only god knows what criteria the vo used to approve me because I wasn't impressive at all. I am neither happy or excited but was wondering why all these stress for a visa.? I will always pray for my country to get better one day as my interview experience has left me with mixed feelings
