I'm sorry, but the authenticity of my claims has already been confirmed. I wouldn't have come here had I been able to take care of it on my own. A couple of persons have pledged to lend their hands. That would probably be enough as I'm here to raise money for that sole purpose and nothing more. Acquiring surplus would be unfair. Thanks for your interest.

claremont:
Interesting thread.

The OP is not needy, neither is he hungry. He has been awarded a scholarship with stipend, he only needs the visa fee. He can work in Nigeria via menial labour, or otherwise, to get the visa fee. There are a lot of needy and hungry Nigerians in the Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) camps spread nationwide who require assistance. If anyone has free money, buy foodstuffs and send them to the IDP camps. The OP has been blessed to get an all-expense paid for degree, he/she can earn the visa fee by working for it prior to applying for the visa..
My opinion.

Well said. Since the school would be paying the SEVIS, I have less to worry about now. The SEVIS fee astronomically increased the sum.

NanaF and ifyalways , I'll keep in touch.
I can't express how happy I feel right now. Thanks and God Blessss!

DareFadi:
Good to see you are sorted and have what you need in terms of the school paying your Sevis and Tehn paying the visa fee

Best of luck to you ... You have my email , once you are secured your visa send me your visa page by email and i find $100 travel money for you to hold ....

All the best and prepare very well for your interview and dress smartly .... Admission is just one hurdle , the big one is getting the VISA

OMG, I can't thank you enough.

ifyalways:
I'm willing to contribute but on these conditions:

Send ALL your scholarship stuff, school stuff and passport data page via email to Tehn.

No cash goes to you. Tehn pays the visa and sevis fees, sends you the reciept which is what you'd need for interview.

Awww! Thank you sooo much! Actually, Tehn played a very vital role during my application process. I didn't want to bother you guys again, but as God may have it you've been drawn into the picture again.
I'll do well to send all the necessary documents to you via email.

Again, I'm very, very, grateful to you Tehn.

To all of you who have shown interest to help, I'm grateful to you as well, but you dont have to worry anymore. Tehn has offered to take the responsibility. May God bless you all.

MissMercedes you keep calling me scam and yet refuse to verify by yourself whether I'm legit or not. Well, I don't know what to say to you. But please do me a favour and stop obstructing the way of well meaning others who may want to help.

Also, anyone who happens to proffer help first should also come to update the thread so that I don't end up receiving from different people for the same purpose.

MissMercedes:
Please don't call me o. You derive pleasure in helping people, like you helped that scammer that claimed he needed money for registration, and after you gave him money, we didn't see his brake light again. Help this one too.

Well, ma'am, I see that you're doing a great job at busting scammers on this forum. I commend you. However, I can assure you that I'm not here to scam anyone.

Maybe I'll do just as someone above suggested — blur out my personal info and upload them here. Or better still, send you the unedited copies of proof of the scholarship and admission so that you'll come here to update the thread about your findings.

NanaF:
It's 31,250. You pay in Naira at the rate posted on the ustraveldocs site which is 197, not black market rate.

It's not just about getting the money.

Please read up well on here, transcripts and all, so you're well prepared and to increase your chances of getting the visa.

Send me your details also. All the best.

Alright. Thanks so much for the heads-up.

DareFadi:
You have a sharp response for every question........OK na . I still think you believe life is a full handout
send me a private mail showing evidence of this scholarship and i will see what i can do
Name of school
Evidence of full scholarship and all
Dont know if i can put my email here

OK sir. I'll do well to send you a private message.

NanaF:
Your Visa fee is N31,520.00

At $200, I'm not sure how the Sevis Fee payment is made. But using card rate, thats almost N60,000.

Total is about N90,000.00

I've not applied for visa before. Visa fee according to what I gathered from the net is $160. $160 at N300 per $ is N48,000. And the Dollar costs more than N300 these days. What's important to me now is finding solutions on how to settle the fees irrespective of how much the Dollar costs. I'd even be happy if it cost less.

TheDreamChaser:
Congrats on your scholarship.

Explain your situation to your pastor or Imam. I'm sure the church or mosque will be willing to help out. I doubt you will get much from here.

All the best man!

That is the problem. I'm sorry to say, but the church has dissapointed me big time. I attend one of the mega rich churches in the country (I don't want to mention their name).
The branch in my area stinks with money — the church building, the exotic cars packed in the compound, etc. But can you believe that when I was applying for the scholarship, I needed just 15k to process something in order to beat a deadline. I met our pastor, met the welfare board, yet nobody could give me common 15k. What more now that even more is needed. I don't put my hopes in the church anymore.

Anyway, thanks for your suggestion. I hope rescue comes to me anytime soon.

Solitin40:
truly if this is real provide evidence so as to help

pictures of letters
name of d school
who offer u d scholarship

Thank you so much sir for your interest in my case. I'm definitely for real, however, I'm a bit wary of uploading my personal documents here. I have sent you a pm. Please reply to the pm and I'll provide you with all the documents to validate my claims.
Thanks again for your interest. I'd be very happy to send as many evidence to proof that I'm for real.

Lalasticlala pls can you make my voice heard pls.

Are there any organisations that gives students loans? I need one now!

DareFadi:
Are you sure you are ready to go to school, this one you want everything handed to you
What you have left to pay is small , better go and hustle for a job or beg relatives or do something .
Sorry to sound harsh but i cannot believe you are asking for Servis, visa and even """needing to shop for important personal items in preparation for life

THINGS ARE NOT FREE AND SO EASY IN LIFE

Thank you very much sir for your input. I didn't mean to sound nonchalant or lavish when I said I needed to shop for important personal items for preparation for life in the US. Not at all. But it's true that I'd need to get lots of stuff for myself, but like I said that not important for now. The visa and SEVIS fees are more important for now and it's not a small money to me. It's almost $400 which translates to about N120,000 in Naira. it's not a meagre amount sir. For what it's worth, I'm from a very poor family. This scholarship was a miracle. I know how much I hustled for it with very little help from people.

Normally, me nor my family can't afford to even send me to a Nigerian university talk less of America. This scholarship is as result of sheer hardwork and favor of God. I know how much I worked for it. Although I spent quite a lot of money during my application and the exams I wrote (that is the SAT), it's not upto half of what this visa and SEVIS is requesting. It's not a small money sir and I need it urgently to schedule my visa interview.

I'd be reimbursed for the expenses later on, so even if it's loan I get I can be sure to pay back.

It's not a spoilt rich kid asking for help. It's a needy person.
$400 is beyond my reach.
