Dear @Lagosismyhome @fairheart @walspring and other gurus in the house that has been source of help.

I am kindly soliciting for your help. I recently got a Graduate entry Nursing program with 50% scholarship on conditional offer to meet up with ielts 7bands in all before I could get the unconditional letter.

Attached is the previous exam I registered and took on March 27th 2021 not meeting up the criteria.

I intend writting on 20th May due to deadline issued to submit the Result.

Here I am soliciting for help, I have 20k the exam is 79k currently. I have spent alot really need support on this one especially will really appreciate this.

This forum is not for soliciting funds. For all we know, you could be making things up.

Go and meet your pastor, imam or traditional leader and ask for help

These courses of study above are all good. But I have a question

Someone said it is only those who studied STEM related courses that would be able to apply for Optional Practical Training (OPT) extension and in future H1-B visa

So what are the benefits of studying non-STEM courses ??

I am asking because my younger sister wanna study criminal justice and I’m advising her to go for a STEM course to be on the safe side in legalizing her stay after studies.

Shadomaan7:
Thanks for responding.

Yes I have financial document for that. My undergrad GP is 3.95.

That’s my fear too. The VO might think I’ll follow my brother path and that is bothering me.

I don’t know if they have a technique to detect if I say I don’t have any siblings abroad.

I heard they always try to run the parent name in the database to see if it brings a match. Not sure if that’s true tho.

I’m just trying to get opinions here to see if anyone has been in this kind of situation and what they did in this scenario.

They have records of everything. And whatever you fill in your application, their database will search for anything matching it with other profiles.

For example, a guy in my area travelled to US in 2018 with visiting visa and he did not return

The address he filled in his application was their family house address

His younger brother recently got denied of an F1 visa. He used the same family house address in his application unknowingly. When they pulled up his profile, his brothers profile came up too. Since they both had same address.

The VO told him that his brother travelled on a visiting VISA which was valid for 6 months and didn’t return. The younger brother was shocked how they knew because he didn’t mention it in his application that he had a relative in USA.

The VO denied his F1 visa based on 2 things
-Withholding pertinent information from DS-160 application form. (not revealing he has a relative in USA)
-No strong ties (he might abscond like the brother)

If I would advise you, in the place of parent, fill in your uncle or something else

Think about this, what of orphans wey no get parents nko? What would dey fill in that place??

This is to let you know that, that field of parents on DS-160 form is totally irrelevant. And you can put anything there.

Your GRE and GPA is okay, don’t let your bro’s case jeopardize your study dream.

Which uni did you finish from ?

Oriyomi234:

VO:who is sponsoring you?
Me:my stepfather
VO:what does your stepfather do?

VO:How many room is inside the hotel?
Me: 30 rooms

your transcript is incomplete

After you said 30 rooms, what happened next ?

mayDtolu:
How would you think of things like this? If you can’t write GRE yourself, That means. You don’t need it and graduate school is not for you.

Mind your business if you can’t help

I don’t need your advise

Welcome development

118M for this thing that looks like a child’s Christmas watch

See all the many colours

Doesn’t look mature at all

EmeritusR:
It will be well, no worries at all. I got a friend who was approved yesterday at Lagos (undergraduate). So grateful! He will share his transcripts soon.

Congrats to him

Is he a fresh high school graduate? Or what year did he finish

veave:
God will bless you for being the only person who is telling us the truth. Imagine others saying cold is too much. Mtchww

Most Nigerians in the US will try and discourage you from coming with all sorts of lies and excuses because they don’t want more people here, they want to have it all to themselves

Don’t let anyone tell you lies. US is filled with money making opportunities

Evii:
Hello bro, congratulations.
I'm happy for you. Do US still issue visa under this COVID? Secondly, are you going for studies or tourism?

They give more of student visa

But if you can convince them that you really have an important conference to attend. They will issue you B1/B2 visa

Tourism and conference falls under B1/B2

bazzyblings:
Congrats . Please what package did you go with ? School or visiting visa ? Please did you do it yourself or you have an agent .. thanks

You can apply yourself.

Look for a conference and apply for online

Go to the Nairaland travel section, lots of tips are posted over there

GeneralPula:
Hope you’re not up to scamming people..

Yankee is good but you don dey sugar coat ham..

Be careful and do not send money to anybody to help you process any traveling on this forum.

Shut up. I don’t need to scam anyone

The millions I’m making in yankee is enough for me

Haryoureendey4:
pls what route do u go through?

I applied for a conference and came in through B1/B2 visa

USA is the best.

There are many low key states here where Nigerians have not flooded and the job opportunities, educational opportunities and business opportunities are maaad!

The Bulk of Nigerians in the US live in
Houston, Texas
Dallas, Texas
Atlanta, Georgia
New York, NY
Chicago, Illinois
Los Angeles, California

My friend recently moved to Nebraska. Very sweet state. He keeps telling me to come over here, because there are lots of opportunities in the state with less competition, as Nigerians have not flooded the state

US na the way ooo

kizonero:
Congratulations brother....what are the opportunities over there

One can easily make money here in the states, send money home to Nigeria and build mansions and buy a lot of properties

Plenty jobs and business to do
Educational opportunities too for those looking to further

Many things mehn

Come and see for yourself

God is the greatest

DAramis:
Bro, sorry for quoting you here. Can you give me an idea on how you were able to process your conference application and the exact website you use.

Majority I saw are claiming it to be going to happen online. I will so much appreciate your run down of the steps you took till the final visa approval. Thank you.

Think out of the box bro.

I started searching for conferences in October 2020. 90% of the conferences were online because of Covid.

I streamlined and rephrased my search and went looking for conferences that must require physical presence and attendance. And I found a few.

Even though Covid is a barrier, there are still many conferences that require physical participation.

I will post more info here later on the processes I followed, so everyone can benefit from it.

Hey guys

Quick question!

I’m currently in the states. I entered 2 months ago with a B1/B2 visa for a conference.

I was stamped in 6 months at the POE.

Now I wanna study, but the school I went to here in Illinois told me that I cannot attend the graduate program (MBA) I intend to study with a B1/B2 visa, that I need an F1.

So guys, can I apply for an F1 visa here in the states, or I will have to return to Nigeria and apply for it.

Basically, starting all over

Or can anyone recommend me any school in the states that would allow me do my masters in business administration with my B1/B2 visa. I’m currently in Chicago, but I don’t mind relocating to another state, so far a school there will accept me.

Spaxon:
Hello. I dunno if I can get help. I don't really know the specs of these cars. But I believe we got people with great experience here. My Dad's retired and wants to get one of these and we are actually inexperienced with cars outside Toyota.

Spaxon, Do not go for Acura ZDX or BMW. Their parts are hard to source and are very expensive like Mercedes Benz parts.

Honda parts are all over Lagos and very affordable

Anyways, We got this clean 2012 Honda Crosstour available at 4.8M

Ogbeni off ur mic
Who is north?
Wen something trends on twitter like fire.

North is part of Nigeria, so we can’t cancel them or erase them when making such judgments.

They must be involved in all calculations and statistics

Guys, please what’s the maximum I can receive to my GTBank domiciliary account via World Remit.
