It's an understatement to say the VO is a witch. Haba!
Well, God's time is the best. May your next attempt be a success.
I have sent a deferral message to my school to defer my admission to the next admission window. They have now replied me to choose my preferred deferral term. I don't want to stress them again. My initial resumption date is Spring semester which commences January 18th, but am not mentally ready to face the visa interview stunts.
I'm now considering Fall semester. What month does fall semester commences. This will help me to re-adjust my schedules ane map out things before time.
walepepe21: The below VISA APPROVAL Transcript was for my Blood brother who got his Visa Today At The Abuja Embassy.
Visa Approved on 08/11/2021 First Attempt School: University Of Kentucky Funding: $65,000 ( RAship with Excess of $8,000)
My interview was just two questions as the VO was impressed with my Assistantship and my DS-160 (i think as he was just reading through it).
VO: How did you got this huge scholarship? ME: I believe the admission committee were satisfied with my level of academic excellence and motivation towards research and earning a graduate degree. I graduated as one of the best students from my department and I have worked with some of my lectures who gave me brilliant recommendations along side my application.
VO: What will this degree do for you? Me: Thank you sir. This degree will afford me the opportunity for picking up a full time lecturing appointment at my alma Mata upon my return back to Nigeria as i intend to become a lecturer.
VO: I will be approving your VISA ME: Thank you Sir and have a good day.
I want to appreciate all the leaders on this group and God bless you all.
Congratulations to your brother!
Only a satanically sadistic VO wouldn't have approved that! A VO who's controlled by the village people!
OlamideTosyn: Good afternoon sire and mas, I am new here, I need some further guidance I have been reading things online before my search brought me here. I am a graduate of English literature of Ekiti State University and I have been looking at schools online. I have fond western Illinois University and Washington University in St. Louise and am planning to apply soon. Please is there any body that is a student of any of the universities or is planning to apply that can help me look at my personal Statement.
I will really appreciate it sirs and mas. Thanks a bunch!
Please I need pieces of information about applications for Transfer.
I have a friend who did National Diploma in Community Health. Initially, she wanted to register for Nursing using undergraduate route. But her Neco results conversion is too low. Not even up to 2.2 on a scale of 4.0 (WES unofficial).
So someone suggested she should apply for TRANSFER with her ND certificate in Community Health. Still wants to study NURSING.
Please don't ignore this post. Kindly send your contributions.
NigPatriot: Some people come here just to seek information, as soon as they get their visa. They disappear into thin air. For Some, even the least thing you can do which is to post your transcript, you still don't.
Thats why I've even stopped replying DMs on here.
Lets all be doing the "me, myself and I" lifestyle and see how far it leads us then.
Vahn: be speaking grammar, those of us speaking from experience, we sent him text messages to reject us right? Or we texted him the same questions to ask all of us. It’s really not your fault. Moreover i never quoted you, please dont quote me if you have no interests in being reasonable.
Regards
Brother, you're funny. The first three lines got me laughing. Lol.
sourkandi: Not trying to disagree, but I got accepted for an undergrad biochemistry program with a $26300 scholarship without taking standardized tests. You can get accepted without taking the SAT or even the ACT. Taking one or both of these tests will improve your chances and give you a slight edge over other applicants who did not take them but it does not guarantee acceptance(please still take it if you can). Ensure your O'levels or A'levels are wonderful, submit your secondary school transcripts, get your teachers to write superb recommendation letters and write a killer personal statement. Include supplementary essays too if necessary and hope for the best.
Also, it would be a good idea if your brother uses the Common App to apply. He can apply to as much as 20 schools and even get the application fees waived if his counselor or principal can attest that he will not be able to afford all of them. It is a wonderful platform, just sign up, fill in your information and pick the schools you want to apply to. You will be required to fill in your O'levels or A'Levels, standardized tests scores(if any) and GPA. Your teachers will also need to send the recommendation letters on the website. Upload your personal statement(you will be given a prompt) and supplementary essays(if any is needed) and fill in your extracurriculars. It is a long process sha but it's worth it. Search Google and YouTube for more info.
Potbellied: Frankly sir, I have not seen anyone who gets an undergraduate admission without SAT or ACT. (I'm not saying it isn't possible, I haven't just seen nor heard anyone)
I can even remember one of the senior folks here on this thread hammered on it the day he was advising a guy who wanted to apply to Berea College. I remember he specifically said that NO SCHOOL will choose a good application with SAT over an equally good application without SAT. I think he is right.
I feel that SAT is just a way of giving our results credibility to equal the US 's own.
The result you posted up there is not bad at all. Please allow him sit for SAT if the finance is available.
PS: You can also check prospective schools' websites, they have their specific requirements just like they do for Grad studies.
Potbellied: This result in my opinion isn't bad, and you should try evaluating it using the WES free calculator too. All the person needs to do is to try ace the SAT to guarantee some sort of scholarship.
SAT to my understanding is registered just like TOEFL . You should check this guy out for the registration. I have not tried him before sha ooo, he comes to me like a descent person though . Hakym8T
Thank you, my dear friend!
Our people have been ignoring the post. I'm most grateful.
Is it compulsory he sits for the SAT?
Any chance of getting admission with the results without SAT?
I don't think he's very interested in scholarships; admission first.
iamkingjudah: Please is anyone having issues with their bank statement for admission into western Illinois university. I have submitted my bank statement (UBA) yet they require a statement that has a bank officer's Name and phone number. The bank has said that they do not give statements like this but the school keeps saying they have received multiple letters with their requested format.
I am seriously confused because the deadline for submission is tomorrow.
BarristerAlarig: [/b]Your question is confusing. Don't you make payment with cards?[b] The only difference is that this time no otp to confirm the transaction. If there's an option for a debit card or credit card, select it and input your card details.
While I appreciate your response, there's a better way of assisting without sounding insulting.
Adding [/b]'don't you make payment with cards?'[b] is unnecessary.
I'm not even the one making the payment. Just asking on behalf of a friend. I've already submitted my own application since August.
You don't know who is who. Applications bring us together.
The better we communicate the less we conflict. Words make, words mar. Weigh your words with wisdom.
