Jakey59:
You'd be asked on arrival if you'd like to work and school... If you say yes, a work permit will be handed to you... I am a student of algonquin college, i see you applied here too, I've reached out to you via email. You know what to do.

I just paid my application fees to the school, i need more guidance on how to do it myself, here is my mail, jabitatosin5@gmail.com amd my number is 07080556463

emmalextemtop:
Co- Algonquin, you welcome here buddy!
Same course too.
Please to meet you.

Well to add little to your question, you might use your job as your career progression sha, showing a relatable job with PM, so the VO can see you are going for study not from your past academic achievement but from your recent employment and definitely must be in line with PM.
Peace.

Please, I just paid my application fee to the school and i am about to begin the application process, can tou give me your number for guidance and additional Vital information. Thank you.

I hope we succeed in dragging them, I'd love to join people who are working on a low key to drag them.to efcc. I have someone at my office who married the junior sister of Adenl, I've informations too, please we have to do everything to get those bastards. Really unfair

That's the Adenl scammer. Her picture should circulate

Gregs8s:
Guys, I have joined naira land to sensitise innocent and aspiring travellers to be wary of people they deal with.

Stream Sort EE and Nissub Associates are shady organisation with no motive but to reap an average and desperate Nigerians. I have loads of evidences/proofs to back up my claim.

They have defrauded millions of Nigerians with their ‘no refund’ strategy.They silenced applicants by creating a pseudo Whatsap group and banned members from airing their opinions.Presently, plans are under way to see how these people will be dragged to the EFCC.
I strongly hope this post will be allowed to stay.
A word is enough for the wise!

johnsavy:
This is the whois data i fetched for the scam adenl website
A good place to start tracking this scammers is the phone number on the record.
This has to reach EFCC and Interpol.
500million is not beans!!!

The numbers on the site has got nothing to do with adenl, they are just web designers and i have reached out to them but this is madam Adeyinkas esther number 08026521081and this is her sister number which is still going 07085546927 her name is ebunoluwa. If she can be tracked so as to lead us to her dubious sister.

Can we all gang up and report to the bank where you guys paid money to. If it is fidelity bank that you paid to then lets gang up to fidelity bank to report

johnsavy:
You won't find anyone in their office... they already absconded.

Streamsort website is already down...they didn't wait till Nov 5.

Thank you for this information, even my agent isn't picking her phone calls and her number has been switched off, Yinka Davis. If we can report to her bank to freeze her account or something

johnsavy:
This is professional scam guys!
Adenl website is down already
Streamsort website will be expiring November 5th 2021 ( 3 weeks from now). Its all planned mehn...
Watchout 3-4weeks from now you won't ever hear anything from this scam shit.


To think of it ...they have scammed roughly 400-500 million naira....jeez
Taking to consideration that about 5000 people applied for this shit scam....

Fear naija...

Wow, this is so gross and heartless. The next thing iw to storm their office at ikeja to ask for a refund. This is pure wickedness

Caphulk:
I don't need to
That's all I have to say
If you wanna ask anything
Ask
If it's not discriminating (not for me though but cause of .y source)
I'll reply

I applied too and i think i have been scammed because why are they just having issues and being investigated when it's time for biometrics, Why were they not investigated before they started collecting people's money

The company is having issues as we speak and it's boldly written on their site, I am also an applicant who has done medicals since my application has been successful. But waiting for biometrics to no avail yet as the stream sort ee centre site is partially down

Thanks for the insight bro. A guy also said Netherland does same too. I hope Usa does same too coz my program director is yet to reply my mail

CuteRedd:
yeah read this on quora sometimes back. Happened to a Nigerian too. He was denied visa to Columbia University. Then the school wrote to the embassy and he was given the visa.

Are you for reals?

Ubah1:
Only in Netherlands

LagosismyHome:
No school can force or demand a Vo to issue visa. It at the discretion of the Visa officer .

You can ask the school to write and come and share your experience with us so we can hear but most likely that letter is nothing

Thank you. Will do just that

Hello guys can you tell your school to send a letter to the embassy to issue you visa once they give you admission because i have a friend who said the school sent the embassy a letter to issue her visa.. Dont Know how true this is..so i want to confirm from the house. Thanks. I'm on the verge on mailing my program director if they can issue a letter to the embassy, i was denied dec 12 and i dropped my transcript here.

[quote author=domex007 post=74392894]hi guys

i have been a nairaland follower since 2013.

i am sorry my testimony is coming late. i hope it helps raise the hope of nigerian youths seeking greener pastures here.

i have been denied USA student visa in 2013, 2014 and 2015
i then turned my dreams to canada (paid my school fees in full and was still denied student visa in 2016 after waiting over 3months)
at this point my money was almost finished and my family started advising me to start studies here in nigeria

i enrolled for yaba tech part time program while i also chased my travel dreams in Germany. i was also denied visa to germany because i couldn't raise the 8,800 euro blocked account.

at this point, i was frustrated and desperate, but the work load from yabatech and my business kept me from depression.

immediately, after my graduation in Yaba i decided to give USA one last trial knowing fully well that i will be denied but i kept on pushing forward

my interview went thus:
first, my interview was for 6;30 13th august 2018 but for the first time i got to the embassy very late and i was not scared or nervous. it rained heavily that day and the rain no pity me at all.
i just protected my documents and went it. i was very cold and feeling sick. i just wanted to do my interview and leave. i was bending down to make my self warm and was almost sleeping before the person behind me told me that it was my turn.

My interview was very long.........

my interview: (a Beautiful black american woman):
VO: Hi there. are you okay?
Me; Hi. yes i am fine. i am just cold. with fake smile on my face.
VO: oh okay why are you going to the USA?
Me; for my undergrad studies in Business Administration and management
VO: when did you finish high school?
Me; 2012
VO; what have you been doing since:
Me; I went for a computer diploma program for a year. then i started applying to Universities in US, Canada, Germany and Nigeria. Things didnt go as planned with the Abroad studies so i went for my National diploma in yaba that took me 4years.
VO: Why did you choose to continue studies in US? why not nigeria?
me: the educational system in nigeria is really poor even though it is affordable to study in nigeria. my program for example is suppose to be a program of 2 years but due to the strike and poor educational amenities it will take me longer time to graduate here in Nigerian university. And i believe in the proverb; "what is what doing is what doing well"
VO: Why do you Change your course?
Me; briefly after my studies i open a Human Hair Business with the financial assistance from my uncle but i need more board knowledge in the field of business. thats why i decided to change my program to help me business grow when i return to Nigeria.
VO:how many Universities did you apply to?
Me; A lot
VO; sorry i meant how many gave you admission?
Me: 6
VO: wow, name them
Me: saint peters University, University of central oklahoma,Troy University, University of manitoba, Canada. Conestoga College, Canada, and the last one Westfallen, Germany
VO: can i see some other admission and I-20
me: *i smiled because i know she didn't trust me. I passed them to her and apologized because they were a bit wet.
Vo: passed them back and asked how i found out about Saints Peters University
Me; My cousin who is a US citizen studied there and he has nothing but praise for the university.
VO: what classes will you be taking?
Me: I smiled because this question was the reason why i was denied the 2nd time. I answered them sweetly
VO: what will happen to your business when you leave Nigeria.
Me; Presently, i have filled my sister in on the basic things she needs to know to keep the business alive until i return
VO: can i see some of the business documents
ME; i passed her CAC document and business bank statement with just 400k in it
Vo: who is paying for your studies?
Me: my uncle?
VO: Why?
Me; He has been the one funding my education due to the death of my father in 2007
VO: what does he do?
Me; He is a medical doctor
VO: Can i see his bank statement?
Me: Passed his bank statement
VO: he is in the US?
Me; Yes ( at this point i thought i will be denied)
VO: what is his legal status
Me; He is a citizen
Vo: do you have his tax clearance?
Me: Passed them
VO: flips through and returns them


*starts Typing endlessly as i was waiting for my denial letter*
God surprised me as she raised her head and gave me the White paper and said the magical words

VO: Congratulations and goodluck in your business
Me; *straight face* Thank you so much ma

Me: stepped out in the rain. the jubilation in me chased the cold away
My family cant still believe it until the day they excorted me to the airport with tears of Joy in the eyes of my Lovely mom

I got to US on December 4th, Cold has been dealing with me since....

My dear brothers and sisters,
I give thanks to God for the delay i faced before because He was using it to help me build a business for my self here in Nigeria.
i wore simple native attire, went last with so many red flags and still got the visa. It can only be God.

i hope my testimony boost your hope. Give it your best!

I also thank all Nairaland members especially Amefrica, Gravinton, Stewee, Kunlebal, Walspring, even Justwise as i Welcome myself to AMERICA



This is the best transcript i have read so far since the time i joined NL last year l, i was denied dec 12, 2018, i was depressed, lost faith in God and this is someone who tried fir 3years, this just increased my faith that Gods time is the best. we try again this year and no matter what i won't despise God. Thanks for sharing this bro. you have helped a lot in your own little way.

[quote author=Jibola10 post=73972816][/quote]Abi please tell them o, tbh i am using study as a route to leave naija, although i will complete my school there assume i was granted visa but i don't intend coming back To Nigeria. what has Nigeria offered me? nothing.. everything keeps getting worse in this shithole country. even some people on this platform has no means to balance the remaining funds despite the scholarships offered to them. let's call a spade a spade. Best of luck guys. 95percent here are intending immigrants but them no go talk. issokay.

Ubah1:
That's a different thing. Schooling nd getting a better job over there to recoup your money is different than using f1 visa to escape and fall out of status. Once you are going to attend school when you get there, you are a genuine student else you are not genuine

..
Ok thank you for making understand this part. God bless you fam.

Olalekank:
Most of "us"?

You.included

lol do you plan to return after studies? how many has returned on this platform? Let us keep deceiving ourselves.

Demonicide:
make it a date with the consular officers.

upon everything, it's what is on their mind they will still do..it's time our government makes this country a better place..everyone is using study as a route/plan to leave the country, i won't blame them much tbh, because most of us here are really pretending to be real students but God knows best. All the best to tye rest who are yet to have their interviews conducted

GboyegaD:
Why are you concerned about what she is dishing out? Did you go there to supervise them or to get your visa?

bro i was just stating the obvious. i didn't say i was there to monitor anyone, i did my interview well but probably God said it's not my time yet. will try again and refire.

Ararume2:
sorry about that. God's grace next time.

Are you for real about the 'No GRE, No Visa' thingy?

no jokes man.. just a white woman at window 5.. so gross and mean..wicked sef..till i left..just sipping coffee and dishing out blue papers

Osinachi1:
Please Post transcript.

Sorry about your denial.

why are you going to the usa :
me : to study for my masters in public admin at the uni of southern indiana

why this school
me : the mpa program director has been nice to me and always been there to show me great assistance through out my application stages

how did u hear about the school
me: it was recommended by my course adviser after which i did an extensive research where i love the concentration on public sector

what will this course do for you
me : will help me get a job with a reputable government parastatals as a public administration consultant

then idiot guy brought out blue paper and that was it

first time at the embassy today. just four questions then denied straight. answered with a shaky voice. but today the visa officers were just dishing out blue papers today. damn, especially that window 5 white woman. no gre then you're gone lol.

[quote author=slamcole post=73512895]Good afternoon here. Visa approved today at the US consulate in Abuja this morning. Here's my transcript

ME: Good morning ma'am (with a wry smile)
VO: passport and 1-20 please.


VO: why USM
ME: It is classified as a R1 institution by the Carnegie foundation. And the Biological Science department has a diverse approach to their graduate program where researches provide solutions to problems affecting one health

VO: number of schools applied to
ME: 3. I named them.

VO: Why the choice of USM
ME: Aside from the fact that I got a GA, there's also am ongoing research in the lab of Prof **** which is in line with my background as a veterinarian.(not sure I mentioned the scope of the research)

VO; Do you have a letter from the school indicating the funding offered.
ME: YES. Gave it to her

VO: What similarities are there between your background as a vet and molecular biology
ME: As a practicing Vet, an added Knowledge of molecular biology will not only help me better diagnose animal diseases but also develop preventive and curative approaches to the disease, with emphasis on zoonotic diseases.

VO: Plan after graduation
ME: Upon completion of the MSC, I'll have acquired adequate research knowledge, and practical exposure as to enable me pick up a faculty position made available to best graduating students like me from my alma matter upon my return to Nigeria.

VO: Travelled out of the country before.
ME: No I've had no reason to go out of Nigeria

VO: Do you have any relatives or siblings in the US
ME: no I don't

VO: Congratulations, I'll be approving your visa

Things I ensured
1. I ensured I cleared my mind of the interview worried the previous day and assured myself it's not a do or die affair

2. I practiced multiple times in front of the mirror and also with individuals. As a fast speaker, I ensured I learnt the art of clearly stating my statements

3. Upon arrival at the venue, I interacted with people and get to know few.

4. As previously advised(dont know how true), applicants are been monitored upon entrance into the premises for appearance, posture and gestures that could make them look not confident or jittery. So I ensured I maintained a bossy outlook (even when I'm not), ensured my hands were at akimbo and also did not lower my gaze.

5. It's advised to find a way of putting one's strongest point very early in the interview process. As in my case, the VO did not even bother to check for any information on my 1-20 nor did she ask if I got funding until I made mention of it.

6. Lastly as it has been mentioned here, do not forget the GOD factor.


I hope this helps someone.



You were asked why you chose USM twice? what if you gave the same answer hope it won't raise a red flag? like you saying like i said earlier then same answer.

100kobo:
Your response on Why USI is very shallow and would fetch you a zero score.
What are some of those courses they offer and how are they relevant to you after the program. You didn't need to talk about weather, as it's nonacademic neither was the issue of internship necessary- USI is not the only school with opportunity for internship. If I am not convinced as to why you selected USI, be sure the VO won't adjudicate your response any different.

What will this course do for you? You may need to mention in specific terms, where exactly you fit in with this degree. Mentioning "public agencies" sounds rather generic. Again, this is an opportunity to talk about the personal appeals that motivated you into this graduate program.


Post-study plans: When you mentioned "Lagos State Secretariat", you sounded too sure you'd get it. Anyway, you need to present yourself as competitive and willing to give your services to jobs that deserve your quality. I am bewildered as to why you're leaving your job with CEO Africa and switching to Lagos state Secretariat. It doesn't show purpose and consistency.

You can expect more questions including riders to the responses you provide.

Work on these...Peace!

thank you bro.. how can i work one on one with you? would really appreciate your assistance, i have out alot intothus application and i don't want to to just go within a twinkle of an eye.
