For the most part, it is but some school still accept that you take only the GRE in as much as you from a English speaking country like Nigeria. However, the rule of thumb is to take both so as to improve your chance of getting admitted and or assistantship.

it is important to know that you are not expected to pay any money to anybody. Also, all the tests that you would take are administer in Nigeria. The video is basically providing everyone seeking US graduate education in the US with the information needed. It does not by any mean whatsoever attempt to derive any gain from anybody. That being said, I wonder why my initial reply was deleted. I told the person asking to direct his questions to the video comment session just so others can benefit from his very important question not for any selfish gain. I believe Mr Justwise will take note of that. Thanks.

That is exactly what we do, we examine students credentials and determine what schools to send their applications to. The performance of the student on their test also go a long way in determining his chance of getting funding. But for the PhD program, no university in the US will admit you of they won't fund the program.
Education / US Admission Processing For FREE by calmdown: 6:27am On Dec 29, 2015
Our mission on one hand is to ensure that all students get admitted to schools that are best fit for their individual program of interest here in the US regardless of nationality, race, gender or financial capability. Therefore, we render the following FREE services to students all over the world with major focus on Africa at the moment:

Advisory

We first help students to determine their strength and peculiarities. Then, we advise on a program that they may be interested in. We suggest best fit schools to our students from a pool of universities in the United States of America. However, we do a thorough search of the schools in order to determine the probability of acceptance to those schools based on the profile of the student that we have initially accessed.

Personal Statement Writing

It is one thing to choose the right school, it is another to send a great application packet. From our wealth of experience with admission committees, we have determined that the most important part of the application credentials is the personal statement. While we understand that application review is a holistic process, it has been said that students with stellar academic transcripts get rejected because of mediocre personal statements. Therefore, we have great writers that help to review our students’ initial personal statement and then write an outstanding personal statement that will not just sell them to the admission committees but also grant them admission.

Resume Max

A resume is a written document that contains a summary of your work experience and your educational background. While it is not as important as the personal statement, an extraordinary resume that clearly show your skills and achievement will usually help your case in front of the admission committees. At FaceCollege, we also write a professional resume for our students. We do not just maximize their opportunity by writing them a resume that succinctly highlight different areas where they have served previously, we also present them as a professional person.

If you think you need our assistance, you may go to Bing Search Engine and search for FaceCollege. FaceCollege should be the first on that list. (I have decided not to post the URL here in order not to breach Nairaland Posting Policies) We are here to help. Nothing else!! If you find us through the search, goodluck! If not, maybe you would later. However, if the moderator of this section grant us permission to put our URL on here, we would gladly do.

Thank you!

How about scholarship application process sir?
And i have my high school transcript already, but am afraid because all my grades from SS 1 to SS3 are below 60, so i don't know maybe i will be admitted with those grades on my transcript...
Whats your advice sir?

First off, there are many universities in the United States. So, your chance of getting admitted to one of the schools is pretty high. More so, I won't worry about the seemingly mediocre grades. Admission review is a holistic process. While your academic transcript is important, your personal statement has been said to be the most important part of college application credentials. If you can double up efforts to ace the SAT, that would help your case before the admission committees and even earn your some sort of assistantship. I hope this help.

Hello everyone, I will be traveling with Qatar airways through doha and Manchester, I hope I don't need any transit visa whatsoever... Those who have used this route before over to you and also judging from zeezahbee's experience. Thanks in advance!
Travel / Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part5 by calmdown: 6:55pm On Jul 11, 2014
zeezahbee: Got to the airport around 1.30pm for a 2.10pm flight, I was the last to check in and I already heard gist about those airport peeps trying to extort people, I didn't pay a dime, I use a ziplock bag to pack my food stuff and it was transparent enough. NOte: don't pack you food stuff in black nylon or bag, get a white transparent pack. So everything was visible enough, I already checked in online before I left home and I even printed my boarding pass so it was easy for them because I picked my seat already. I passed through immigration easily and when the checked my hand bag, I was with my nivea deodorant and they tried to seize it but I just say please please and they said oya go go your flight will move soon so I ran all the way to qatar boarding zone and they checked my bag again, this time they seize the deodorant and left my roll up, the claim it the deodorant is 150ml and they only allow 50ml, my roll on was 50ml, the woman they expect make I bribe am or something, I just bone and told her enjoy the fragrance #wicked me# and I move away slowly. I already met people waiting and in like 5mins everyone boarded and left naija exactly 2.10pm. Inflight entertainment make sense, I watch film sotay eye dey pain me, I cudnt sleep anyways and I was following the map, wine, soft drink, tea, coffee you fit order anytime. Not everyone on the flight were going to US, most were either dubai or qatar or Uk. Seems we were only 3 going to US. In 7hrs plus some mins, we landed at hamad airport, mehn con see as the airport big, before I reach my terminal my leg pain me heeen, we walked for like 20mins so I got to my terminal and bought a qatar pay phone and there was also free unlimited wifi at the airport but my stop over was for 1hrs 50mins and before I blink eye, time Don go and I was called for boarding flight to spain,the flight was different, we took an airport shuttle and we boarded, most people were white anyways but the 2 others were nigerian couple going to the US to have there baby so we were just 3 going from nigeria to US with qatar, the flight wasn't filled up, plenty space and that means plenty food, the chinese guy went to join seat at the back and sleep der, mesef con join seat and sleep, they gave us a small bag that contains brush, toothpaste,eye cover abi wetin dem dey call am sef lol and also eye blocker hehehehe# so it was late and the light might disturb you from sleeping, we landed spain around 7.35am and as we about to check in, I met a dubai girl also going to US to school, immigration didn't stamp us and they ask for schegen visa, they said we can't enter oo, na that time I know say them follow me for naija, them don get me. Me and the girl ran back to see if we can get back on the qatar plane and see if we can talk to them, but they didn't allow us. We kept shouting we are student and they were just speaking spanish, na xo I tell them say I need to board a flight to US in less than 30mins that if I miss my flight, I won't take it nice with them, I said it was the airline that gave connected us to spain and we paid and its none of our business because we paid the bills already, na xo the immigration woman reason with me and check my i20 and passport, I gave her full eye contact to show I was so serious, na xo them carry me go put for one room like that, they collected my school phone number and called, they also called qatar and confirmed and they came and ask me to go meet a guy that followed me to where I will boardto new york. Note : its not qatar that will take you to US, america airline will do. So I got to the america airline and waited for few mins, he be like say them dey use camera monitor us, they thought I fit elope and enter spain. They didn't stamp my visa because I no get schengen visa. Few Mins sha, we were on our way to new york, 8hours journey and it got boring and I was looking skin, my eyes were red but food surplus wella sha. We landed new york exactly 1pm. I went to get my 2 box and I already booked a US airways flight to texas for $298 so I went there straight and those ones said I need to pay $60 for the 2 box, I tot the money for box was included in the $298, well I paid the $60 with my GTBank card, I didn't knw my terminal to board and I was walking about, I went to sit somewhere and was using wifi and borrowed a charger from someone by the time I got to my terminal, them don lock flight door, still I was like them follow me com from nigeria. My flight was for 4.59pm and I got der 4.50pm and the woman was like they board 10mins ahead but she said I shouldn't worry that I will be placed on standby for any available flight, she gave me another ticket without any charges and still same arrival time, so around 6pm, they called my name and I boarded a flight to charlotte and then waited for 30mins and board another to houston and arrive 11.50pm and I went to get trolley, troy is for $5, you slot the $5 into the machine. Note : get more of $5 and $10 before you leave naija, you will need it to pay something and the trolley pulls out automatically so I waited for my box and I went to met one white guy to borrow me his fone to call my friend and he borrow me, so I carry my bag and exit. Well its been interesting since and the weather is so hot, in short the sun for here fit cook beans, 80 degree Fahrenheit(F) No form accent oo, its written all over you that you are JJC so just speak slowly and promise well, no one would laugh at you, our own accent beta sef, if you listen to chinese or india english, you will know you still have hope. Watch their mouth, body movement and follow instruction, don't shout on fone, if you don't know how to use something in the public place, ask questions, they understand you are new and there's always a first time. Abeg no cross road like mad man/woman, cars wait for people here. Take advantage of free wifi in some public place, I used wifi at one restaurant and I spent like one hour there eating and re filling coke. Well for money order, they ask for your state ID, I need to pay money order for something and it was they requested for state ID, the state ID is easy depends on where you are anyways, think they only need your visa and school i20 with admission letter.

I personally appreciate your efforts to put this down. I must confess, you have answered so many questions that we have not even asked. Enjoy your stay in US my sister from another mother. We shall join you soon. I am also flying Qatar but through Doha and Manchester.
