DeeTus:
Don't address me as bro. It doesn't sound so good to me.

slimmy05:
what about Akwa Iboms Monday, Tuesday, Saturday, and Sunday

ScholarAkassi:
This was exactly the question I was about to ask bbdd. What if I mention two or more schools and then she requested for my GRE scorecard and discover that I applied to only one school> Do you think my reply for the reason I choose one school is not going to be convincing enough? Secondly, pls answer my question about the timing for the interview. Will it commence at exactly 6:30 am

Bro I've noticed ur high level of understanding in this thread. Thank u very much. But is it advisable to book appointment like June 15. Seems too desperate?

portelli:
See dude I appreciate ur concern. But did you read my interview transcript very well. because if you did, u wouldn't complicate this issue. If you read without comprehension, feel free to ask qstions before condemning my post. So, with all the schools that I listed, they sound like community colleges to u, talk less of noncredit course in US. I said it, no slanderous statements, if none can say what's expected, don't quote me, I'm okay with what I have had so far.

DeeTus:
Good. That's very wonderful. After reading his interview, i was so sure that the school he chose wasn't right and mentioned a lot about change of institution and some folks thought otherwise and said he should stick to the previous school but I thank God is evident now.

OjaP:
Ooops !!! Maybe I didn't understand him well. Thanks for the correction.

In any case, he should write the SAT and go back to the embassy if he was admitted for a bachelors degree.

sirRiddy:

Slimmy: You are so on point.

Portelli: Let me be honest with you, you may never get the visa unless you change to an actual degree. We say it many times here that V.Os seldom issue visas to older community college applicants, yet you think they will issue a visa for a-3-months non-credit course? Although there are exceptions to this which you will find later in this write up. But first permit me to point out some flaws in your answers to the V.O.

- You mentioned that U.S degree is widely accepted and respected. Yes it is - no doubt. But are you getting a degree? You are not even going to get any credits for the classes you would be taking according to you. This is contradicting.

- You said that you will become employable and a-sought-after engineer upon completion of your non-credit class. Please forget that. An OND and 3 months training won't make any difference. There are many unemployed engineers in Nigeria with a first class degree, masters degree, several certifications, and even a Ph.D. I am not sure any employer would hire you simply because of your training. An exemption may be if the job being advertised is mainly for an OND holder. So why would you spend so much to go to the USA, come back to Nigeria and get a technologist job and earn way less than an HND or BSc holder?

People who get visas for a 3-month training or class are people who are established already. Engineers who have a job and only going to add to their knowledge or get certified and in most cases are sponsored by their employers. Your case is different. You are just starting life and have no job. Why would you waste your money for a 3 month non-credit class?

I am surprised the V.O went this far with you. I agree with Slimmy that he is probably just messing with your brain. I am also surprised that you got admitted into UMD, NJIT, University of Bridgeport, and SUNY for a non credit class which means they will be issuing an I-20. Or do you mean you got admitted as a freshman? If the latter, why not go with any of the schools that offered a degree admission instead of the 3 months non-credit class? On a second thought, I remember you didn't write the SAT and these highly rated and selective schools would ask for that before considering you for an admission. I am not sure if your OND would suffice in lieu of the SAT but you never mentioned this so I will assume you didn't submit any of them.

I will advise you to apply for a "proper" degree, write the SAT, and go back to the embassy.

I wish you good luck.

You registered on the 14th and you already calling a spade a spade,. Besides, why are you trying to revive gone issues,..Anybody can make a joke on what suppose to be joked on, its left to a mature mind to take up the joke and this is what bartino didnt realise at first...
See Mr, We need to take it easy in this life and always make ourselves happy,. This life is just life making tea, You must boil your ego, evaporate your worries, dilute your sorrows, filter your mistakes and get a taste of happiness..

luciouslyon:
sometimes we need to call a spade a spade,most of us come here for one help or the other and u all might not know the urgency of the situation at hand and even though you might be the only one who seems to have a way of rendering that help let's do it without making jokes out of it first . First impression matters a lot. Yes, he is been helpful here but he should know when to joke cos actually some peeps final decision depends on the info they get from this forum.

bartino:
hello man ain't here to joke, if you can't assist or say something of importance get your comments of my post please.okay and act like you got some sense,thank you.

slimmy05:
If you as a person with this clear and matured way of resoning in situations of this nature. When you get here, don't drop this skills or be swayed by the reasoning of most Nigerians you find here.

Not everyone here is coming for schooling and from their comments it's not hard to tell.
