is it advisable to apply for admissions to college that only provide full tuition, without the total cost of attendance. The room and board fees + feeding and transport expenses = $22,000

drDoom3:
Yes

drDoom3:
It doesn't matter, as long as it is clear and legible. I printed black and white, even used my worwor Tecno camera to snap it, edit it and send to all my schools, and none complained.

Lol thanks boss

US Visa Approved!!!

Sent a strongly worded email with convincing points for an emergency visa appointment on Tuesday Night - 6th.


Received an email from the US embassy at 7.30am the next day - Wednesday, scheduling me for an interview on Friday at 6.30am.

Today, Woke up at 5.00am, joined hands with my sister to decree divine Favour.

Bath, dressed and booked an Uber, got to VI at 6.20am.

Went in for my interview at 7.00am

Sent back out because I did not print my DS-160 confirmation.

Rain flogged me, some soldier men even gave me umbrella my who cloth was wet.

A lady helped me to print the DS - 160 form, said I should pay her 5K, I didn’t have any money on me. Begged the lady and eventually paid 3500 outta my reciprocity fee.

Went back into the embassy.

VO: Good morning
Me: Hi, Goodmorning

VO: Pass me ur I-20 and visa and da-160 form

VO: where are u going
Me: Going to ...Ivy league school

VO: Great school, but very expensive too, how are u funding it?
Me: Received 80,000 USD in Fin Aid and taking a loan of 20K from my uncle to complete the rest.

VO: Ok, what does ur uncle do?
Me: My Uncle is a real estate developer and deals in wichtech roofing sheets.

VO: Any evidence of ur uncles ability to pay?
Me: before I could Pass him my uncles statement, he said I shouldn’t bother, he believes me.

VO: Have u travelled out before?
Me: Yes, I have been to the US, Germany France, Qatar, Kenya, Uganda...etc

VO: What did u go for?
Me: Explains

VO: Your visa has been approved, do u have the reciprocity fee?
I knew my reciprocity fee was short by 3500 but I answered yes, I did not want wahala.

VO: Go over there and pay, and enjoy ur stay in America

I go over there, praying for a miracle and the money to double...didn’t happen.
Went out and was looking for whom to borrow money from as I didn’t have my atm. One guy who just finished his interview saw me and asked what the problem was.
I told him, he then called his driver to bring money and dashed me 4K. I quickly begged him to wait for me, so I follow him and drop off at my stop.
He waited for me to pay the reciprocity fee and then told his driver to drop me off the stop close to my house.

Good luck every one

Congratulations!

iLegendd, boys need to sub...

iLegendd:
On the other news, form an acronym with the name iLegend and the best one will get 1k card.

Below is the one I came up with, but I want something better

iLegend

Imaginative
Lively
Eccentric
Go-getter
Explorer
Naughty
Determined


My haters are also allowed to play the game. I know they'll use negative words. The letter "I" in iLegend will end up as "idîot" for them.

1k for one fan and 1k for one hater.

This thread is too dry!

Pls Who applied for admissions into any undergraduate program, how many did you applied to and how many accepted or rejected you? Did it come with funding?

Please can anyone help on this

Pls do you know anyone that took the SAT today?

Anybody taking the SAT today?

LagosismyHome:
No advice...this is covid times so funding might be tight. You just have to try and if you try you dont succeed then you look at other realistic option like schooling in naija

You are eligible to receive CSS Profile fee waivers if you are a first-year undergraduate applicant whose parents live in the U.S..... so please check if international students actually get this

No I ain't eligible for It!
