Law in the US is a graduate program - there is no LLB here. Better to try the UK.

Thank you plenty.

If you’ve done your research, you won’t be looking for an undergraduate law program.

If you don't have an answer to my question,why not overlook it .I hate rude people

I have worked with my company for 5.6yrs now and part of my routine work is to ensure that the output of uniform batches of our products conforms to establish specifications interms of Purity, identity, stability, strength and Potency. I ascertain the potency of our incoming raw materials,processing materials and finished products.I train students on intenship in our laboratory(wanted to say more but she cut me off).

Me: After my masters,I will be coming back to NIGERIA to attain a higher position in my current place of work which is Quality Assurance manager and my employer has issued me a 2yrs payable study leave. I have this good working relationship with him and i have been the company’s Quality Control Analyst for years now,so he told me he needed someone internally for this new role which entails the supervision of the Quality Control activities, the whole production processes and also in ensuring that there is a good manufacturing practices. But on the long-run, i will be leveraging on my membership with the Nigeria Institute of Science Laboratory Technology which I have obtained licence to practice from them since 2013 ,this is to enable me setup a standard laboratory in collaboration with the standard organisation of Nigeria.

I said thank you Ma and left.


I was so down after the first denial but i didnt give up,instead i resulted to prayers and started looking for a solution and i stopped asking God for visa approval instead i started thanking him in advance. Luckily for me,one day i came across a post from facebook blogger who posts about students visa journey, contacted him,so he directed me to Nairaland and from there i joined many groups.Joining NL opened my eyes to somany things and that was when I realised that i literally went for my first interview without having the knowledge of how it works.I applied to only one school which gave me admission, never knew one can apply to more than 2schools .It was when i defered my admission that I applied to two more schools.

I'm grateful to God for leading me to the right path after the delay(I always pray with matt.7:7)
Did so many vigils,Fasted,been doing mother of perpetual help novena(I never missed this novena for 2yrs now)
Divine mercy prayers and thank you Jesus prayers(@Elvis I can't thank you enough for being a channel to God's kingdom,many thanks).Thank you Dayor,my Tenesse U.S friend from NL for all your helps especially with my ds-160.@⁨Nairaland Awosemo Rasaq⁩ for helping with my transcript and mock.@Moshkom for putting me through with my ds-160 and my social media handles.

Not only that. He gave generic responses to questions. For example, he said he wanted to "to proffer solutions to the world problems through computer science." Which problem in particular?

He also said he chose the school because their "level of support shows the school loves me and i love them." The School loves him? How? And lastly, the number of hotel question. He needs to prepare better responses for his next appointment.

Even though grace works cos its quite obvious he got denied for not knowing the no of hotels the Dad has

Why is no one answering or helping out with information on the WhatsApp date search group?

Even if the group is full, someone who belongs to that group should at least say something nah. Why the silence? We are here to assist each other. It was someone who added you to the group, so assist others.

I randomly logged into the portal on June 8th, at exactly 4:44pm, and saw many openings for June 10, but before I could click on one, my network hanged and logged me out. By the time I came back, that was the end. It took me to 2023.

Only to come on Nairaland and see there was an earlier information about it which I never knew of cos I just joined this forum today. What a missed opportunity.

Please, this is the third time I am shouting here, and will continue to shout, (cos I don't know where my messiah will come from)...... SOMEONE SHOULD HELP ADD ME TO BOTH THE ABUJA AND LAGOS WHATSAPP FORUMS FOR DATE SEARCH.......08092135888.

Wow! I was expecting to see a lot of transcripts posted today but.....well.
Let me post mine.

In Jan,2022, I joined this platform because I had a challenge which I sought for help on this platform.
I had applied for B1/B2 visa renewal for my family and I since May, 2021. While awaiting the interview which was scheduled for May 2022, my son got admission for a Bachelor's degree in the US. We tried to switch his visa category to F1 but we were informed by the embassy that our previously booked appointment may be cancelled automatically, if we initiated the switch. The advice was to wait for our interview in May, but he wouldn't show up for the interview. Afterwards, we could now switch his visa and reschedule him.
Fastforward to May, we received messages fastforwarding our appointment 3days earlier.
We attended the interview and got our B1/B2 visas approved with a few questions asking when last we travelled, how long we stayed, why one person was missing from the group appointment, if we had changed jobs in the last 2years.....
This was on May 23rd.
May 25th we tried to reschedule my son's appointment after re-filling his DS160 with his old MRV fee but didn't pick a date in May 2023 until the 3rd of June,(last week) just after his account was frozen for 72hours.
That same Friday,3rd of June, we decided to apply for Emergency appointment as his earlier start date is July, 24th with the necessary documents. 5mins later, we received a mail denying the emergency due to shortage of staff in Lagos consulate.
My son was so downcast and discouraged, pleading we switched to Abuja consulate. I just told him there was still time and that he should calm down. We prayed and continued trusting God for an appropriate date to crop up while he joined appointment dates groups for both Lagos and Abuja. Note, we had only one reschedule lifeline left.
On Tuesday, the 7th of June, after trying to check the portal for dates for the Lagos group, someone dropped the alert of opened spaces on the whatsapp group. Instantly, he logged on and secured today's date- the 10th! Several slots kept dropping- over 100 openings.
That was a miracle as he had seen June 10th when he applied for Emergency but he was denied. Like joke, that date eventually jumped back at him. Phew! oro po! grin grin.
Out of the applicants today, he was singled out with a few ppl and taken to a room to meet an elderly VO. He sat down to chat with the VO and his assistant.
Anyway, bottom line-
VISA APPROVED!!!
Transcript uploading soon though it probably will not apply to alot of people as this is for a Bachelors degree program and applicant has US travel history.
Nothing is impossible if only you can believe! From the switch to F1 visa to search for dates to denial of emergency appointment to eventually getting a favourable date and ultimately, visa approval!
God wey do am for us go do yours too by His grace. grin









Amen,thank you for these words of encouragement

Good day everyone I stumbled across the thread please welcome me. I’m in the process of filing my DS 160 and I have a question

Is it fine for to use business a business account as SOA

I work for my mums business and the business is sponsoring my VISA

I have also been granted a scholarship of 8k…I20 as been issued before the scholarship happened so it’s not reflecting, do I need to contact my enrollment officer about making the scholarship reflect on my I20 or should I carry on with my interview without it.

Lastly there are 2 spots on the I20 about Jobs

The first one says primary occupation
The second say employment for the last 5 years

Are my supposed to tell about Job status in both cases.

Thanks.





2jobs on I.20 or in ds160 form?
If you currently working ,fill it in on the primary occupation/current work ,then if you have worked in the last five years,click on previous work and fill them in.
If you are filling that you do business as your occupation, I hope the course you re going to study aligns well with the business,its very important.

Pls firstly,ensure you mail your school to update your I.20 with the funding, its mostly important.

Does the business account carries your family name or business name.Better to use an account with a personal name on it.

Good day all. In keeping with the spirit of this thread, I share my visa interview experience below.
Waited for 60 days to resumption of my program and applied for EA. Approved within 3 days,

Arrived 7 am even though my appointment was for 8:30 am. No body paid any attention to this discrepancy and we were gingerly ushered in. After all the checks, it was time to face the visa officer, a Caucasian female. Biometrics done.

Program: Masters
Center: Abuja

V.O: Where do you work?
ME: I work with ---- (Federal Government Regulatory Institution)
V.O: Who is funding your study?
ME: I received $17k no strings attached scholarship which comes as a tuition fee reduction. I will be funding the balance my self
V.O: What would you be doing when you complete your studies?
ME: I intend to do a lateral career switch from my present role in Information Technology to Bleep within the same organisation. This program will enable me build competency to be able to function as a... (stated the role here).
V.O: Do you have a guaranteed job with this agency after your studies?
ME: Most definitely, I have been working here continuously for nine years, so I am qualified for study leave per the organisation's policy.
V.O: Are you married?
ME: Yes maam
V.O: Children?
ME: Yes, 2 kids, boys, 3 and 6
V.O: Is your wife working?
ME: Yes
V.O: Where?
Me: She is working as a medical doctor with a a university teaching hospital
V.O: Would you be going with your family?
ME: No
(Here the V.O started typing furiously for quite a while and I started wondering if I have overreached my self and closed any avenue for my family ever joining me. An idea came to me, so I cleared my throat to get her attention. She ignore me and continued typing)
ME: Although two years is such a long time for one to be away from family, I foresee a situation where they could come for a short stay, during children's school break and when my wife is able to secure her annual leave with her employer.
(The V.O stopped typing, looked at me briefly, nodded and smiled and resumed typing)
V.O: Everything is in order and I would be approving your visa.
(She reached for the white paper and handed it to me)

Hope this helps. Thanks peeps. See you at uncle Sam's. Oh Philly here I come!

Good day everyone,

Please I have a question;

I am trying to book an appointment and after filling my passport details and all, I submitted it and then I got this pop up. This account was created for me in 2019 by an uncle then who helped in filling it, but now I am doing everything on my own and I intend to create it from scratch. If I don't transfer this new account to the previous one as stated in the image below, would I have any issues going forward? anyone done similar stuff before without any negative effect?

Yea your option is to transfer to the previous account or write to cgi to cancel the previous one,if not you may not be able to continue

your response should go like this, I believe I know myself pretty well in terms of what works best for me while studying. I am a firm believer that quality study is far more effective than sitting down there reading for hours upon no end. Quality study involves writing down key learning points from each lessons. Also I have since discovered myself that I am more effective studying at evening time of the day during which my level of concentration and assimilation is always at is peak. So, I have already have plan in place to make sure that my studies are effective and utilize my time very well while at the university.

Others too should contribute


No please.

Check the courses you will do ,the number of credits loads total and per semester.Your research topic with the Prof or advisor you would be working with if you have one,the years of study etc

Went for my visa interview in Lagos,

VO: Good morning..
Me: Good Morning
VO: Where are u going to?
Me: I'm going to South's Plains College Levelland Lubbock Texas to get an associate degree in business administration there....(VO cuts in)
VO: Have u traveled out before:
Me: yes, back in 2014 I went on a family trip to London with my family...
VO: Do u have any relatives in London...
Me: Yes, my mom's sister,my aunt...
VO: How old are u?
Me: I'm 17
VO: When did u graduate from High School..
Me: 2021, October
VO: types and keeps on typing..
VO: How did ur brother get his green card?
Me: Marriage
VO: What is ur brother's wife's name?
Me: (says name)
VO: How long has he been married for?
Me: 2 to 3 years...I'm not all too sure about the exact number of years...
VO: Do they have kids?
Me:No, not yet anyways....
VO: I'm sorry I'll have to deny ur visa...
Me: Is this denial related to information about my brother?
VO: check the letter ....PS: I know already what is there .
Me: Did anything go wrong during the interview...I'd like to know to make corrections when I reapply...
VO: I'm sorry I knows it frustrating, check the letter... I'll have to call the next person now...
Me: leaves in utmost shock and surprise

On the letter the reason for denial is Section 214(b) of immigration and nationality act.

My elder brother got married there after going in with an F-1 visa back in 2015. Does this mean all members of my family will be unable to get a US visa for this reason, majority of my family lives back home and I wasn’t asked about them but got denied due to ‘lack of home ties’ I just felt it was unfair I didn’t get a chance to actually talk about myself or what my degree will do for me. What can I do before reapplying?



The VO probably refused you cos of your brother. I advice that next interview,if asked about your brother,say they have atleast 3kids or 2kids with the woman he married cos VO believes is an arrangee marriage and probably why they have no kids in the union.
