i dont think theres any place in the Ds 160..that allows you write the number of schools you applied to

Rule Number 1: Don't lie to your VO
Rule Number 2: Rule Number 1

Those guys are trained psychologists and can easily detect if you're lying through your eyes and your body.

If you finished secondary school in 2014, you can tell the VO that you were studying a course here in Nigeria but you should be able to strongly convince the VO why s(he) let you go another degree.


If you applied to 3 schools, tell the VO that you applied to 3 schools.

If I may ask, why not masters?

I have two problems anyone that can help..
I finish my secondary school in 2014 and now I’m a 400L student but I never included that on my DS-160.. I applied for undergraduate in Cleveland state University
Because I don’t want them to know I’m in a particular school right now..
my question is.. if the VO ask me what have I been doing since 2014 what should I say??

NO 2
I actually applied for 3 schools but I included only one unknowingly to avoid further discussion from the VO
What if I’m asked how many schools did I applied for.. can I say 3??
well known for me that it’s not on my DS-160 can I get penalized??

Can I say somethings that happens not be be on my DS-160 can I be penalized??.. I need help.. my interview is just few days ahead please
Please your responses are highly appreciated
My interview is so near

God bless you all

Ok.

Felixsun20:
Sorry for the denial. First, your answer to where you intend to stay was not convincing. You should have just mentioned one of the hostels owned by the school and that someone your hostel.

You studied for a Bachelor of Accountancy (B.Acc.), not a Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.).
Never argue with a VO like you did. Say something like;
"In my place of work as at present, I need a degree in International Business so as to take up the position of the International Business Personnel and this will be a groundbreaking achievement in my career". Mentioning a relation as the owner of the company where you work will only show favouritism, never mention such in the discussion unless you're asked.
You should have said yes to the question of applying to another school while mentioning the year as well. Don't be arrogant by saying the VO said gibberish.
Pleeeease, apply to at least three schools, write the standardised tests (TOEFL and GRE) and study for the tests aiming at high scores whether the schools require them or not. These are some of the major ways of convincing the VO that you're a genuine and serious student. Blessings!

After reading your transcript, I think you gave the VO a very easy decision to make. You chose only ONE school in the whole country, and your reason for choosing the school wasn't that convincing. If Family/friends over here have a very big influence on your decision to travel, it triggers the "intending immigrant" bells in a VO's head answers seemed rehearsed.

In addition, unmarried, not engaged, etc. gave the impression you have no strong ties in Nigeria. I don't know if she could have seen that you applied to other schools outside the US and hooked you for that too. All in all, I'd say you were not prepared for that interview.

Being a non smiling black big woman has nothing to do with her being professional. She did her job, you were not well prepared.

If you intend to reapply, please correct your mistakes. Be better prepared and avoid answers that give the impression you rehearsed what to say. I'm sorry you didn't get it this time, I hope it works out for you next time.
