Please be very confident. i think you should try to practice answers some questions in your mind when you are in the visa hall as that might help to regain/build your confidence. just my two cents.

I apologize to everyone not to have posted this earlier.

My interview was slated for Dec 8th and was approved. I was interviewed by the lady in counter 2 and below convo ensued

Me: good morning

VO: (not sure if she answered) what course are you going to study

Me: Management Information Systems (though I had Information Technology on my SEVIS form)but not a problem as I was informed by the school that it wasn't an error)

VO: (looks at my SEVIS form to confirm) Why did you choose NIU

Me: there's a lab that consist of current Database Softwares, built in client/server system and SAP control component system which affords the opportunity of working through many real life situations thereby gaining hands on experience and training on this course which are the tools required to excel in my area of specialization .

Also, Asides from the masters degree being awarded, a certification in SAP will also be awarded which is an added qualification .

The program specializes in Business Analytics and SAP which are both in line with my career aspirations as I intend becoming a consultant in Business Analytics.


VO: (Nods)Did you apply to any other school?

Me: Yes

VO: how many

Me: 3

VO: nods, mention them

Me: NIU, UD and Texas A&M

VO:How many gave you admit

Me: 2

VO: You got your visa when? (referring to my B1/B2 visa)

Me: 2017

VO: have you travelled( referring to if I've used the US visa)

Me: Not yet

VO: (Nods before I even finished) Where have you travelled to?

Me: UK and Dubai

VO: who is your sponsor

Me: My Dad:

VO: (checks something on her system) you are qualified for this visa, collect your passport at your chosen selection point, gave me the white paper and also another paper to attend an admission forum

Me: Thought she first of all said you're not qualified, I was like wetin and then I saw the white paper, was so elated. Told her thank you very much and merry Christmas in advance.

HINT: Please be prepared for your interview and leave the rest for the VO to decide. I listened to some interviews before I had mine that day, obvious questions where asked relating to the students intending courses and they could not answer these questions. A VO asked a student the content of his intending course and said he didn't know, another who's profession was nursing wanted to go study pre-nursing, told VO his intending course is a higher type of nursing to his present profession and could not relate both together.

Is healthcare no longer free for British citizens?

not free for british citizens who are not settled in the UK.

settled means you are not paying tax in UK, no utility bill whatsoever.

hello Good people in the house.

my wife has a british passport and wants to give birth in UK. she has already been registered in a uk hospital and has a GP.
how much will it cost for her to birth in the UK? must she pay all the bills before delivery or can she pay in installments?

Note that she isn't settled yet in the UK.

Gurus in the house, pls advice.

Thank you.
