@ bboy07 why paying ur sibling school fees when education is free down here in Akwa Ibom State
Schools are never completely free in Nigeria, however you don't expect profit made from Gala to pay a school fee.

Only God knows who is real anyway, one thing is Let then keep scamming us while God keep blessing us.

Americans do not go around asking you to file for a US visa, we line up in millions every day for it, willingly. The visas don't come for free... those fees pay to keep visa officers who receive and process your application and then interview you, the cost to run background checks on your application, print a visa for you... do you expect to receive all those for free?

You have the power to stop them from using you as a business venture, you can choose not to apply at all. I doubt America will care one bit.
I doubt anyone forced you to view the thread as well.

FYI to folks who will want to ask personal questions:

1. Note - do NOT simply copy interview Q&As that others post here. Make it your own, don't be lazy. All of you did not find alumni who recommended obscure colleges to you.

2. Do NOT send me emails for general questions that can easily be answered here or might help others. You defeat the purpose of this thread. Only send me emails on questions that you wish to keep private. You can trust that all that you say to me in private will stay there.

For those of you going for interviews soon, i wish you all the best! Be confident, spend less time rehearsing and cramming. You do not need to rehearse your reasons for selecting a school or major... this is your life, you should know it even if i woke you up from sleep to ask you.

Hi guys! Visa got approved this Monday at Lagos Embassy.

Being my first time, I got to the street that lead to the embassy very early (around 6:30am because my appointment was for 8am). I was bombarded by some mobile business centres guys who paraded me without giving me any breathing space. Not so long after the parade, I realised that some of my documents were missing. I had no choice than to engage one of those guys. They helped me print out all the missing documents at the rate of 1,000 naira (I wanted to cry though). After this I moved to the embassy entrance immediately. On getting to the police check point, I realised that mobile phones were not allowed at the venue. I look for a police officer to drop the phone with. She charged me a bill of 1,000 to help me keep the phone. I was so frustrated as that was the last card on me. At that point, I made a prayer to God that I must not go home with my passport as this stress and spending was too much. I was sweating profusely and later join the line at the embassy. Little did I know that I am going into another queuing. Anyways, after all the paparazzi, I was sent to a VO line. On getting to the line, I started observing people that are being interviewed by the VO. The VO was just denying people of visa. I was like, who is this wicked lady. At that point I was afraid and shaking. But I said to myself, I am going home with the white paper. I was tempted to change line, I discovered that other lines too were like the same. I just calm down at my line. After a lot of people were denied, I think one was approved, it got to my turn. I said, God favour me. Then the conversation started as follow;

VO: Good morning
Me: Good morning
VO: Your documents please.
Me: I gave her the documents (I20, Sevis Receipt and International Passport)
VO: Checking the documents and typing. After few seconds, you are going to illinois for doctorate degree (she was talking to herself while typing).
Me: I was looking at her.
VO: What is your highest degree of qualification
Me: BSc. First Class
VO: Really? But you are going for PhD. Okay you will be doing the masters along.
Me: I was just looking at her as she answered herself. I only nodded my head in agreement.
VO: She typed a little bit. How many schools did you applied to?
Me: Two schools, I named the schools
VO: Why have you decided to go for UIC?
Me: (Stammering) I listed three reasons as she was looking at me.
VO: What did you studied for BSc.?
Me: Chemical Engineering
VO: She looked at the I20. Okay you will be studying Chemical Engineering too.
VO: Have you traveled out before?
Me: No
VO: Why? (straight face)
Me: Because I have not had any reason to do that until now.
VO: She nodded her head
VO: What was your research area
Me: Kinetics and reaction engineering
VO: What will you be focusing on at UIC?
Me: Kinetics and reaction engineering
VO: What is Kinetics and reaction engineering? (straight face with full attention on me)
Me: (I was like, thank God) I answered her to the extent that she stopped me.
VO: What is your role at your place of work?
Me: I told her and stylishly relate it to process engineering, though they are related.
VO: Do you know anybody in USA?
Me: No
VO: Are you willing to pay for your bills?
Me: Yes. (I was like - who will say no?)
VO: Your Visa is approved. She gave me a white paper and circle my visa pick up point.
Every other things she said, I did not listen. I just wanted to leave the hall.
On leaving the hall, the police woman saw my face, among all other faces that were coming out from the visa office, she decided that she was not going to give me my 500 naira change. She latter calculated my transport fare for me and gave me 200 naira to return to Shomolu. Who am I to complain. At least I have my visa anyways. then I left the location.

The ONLY documents checked were;
1. I20
2. Sevis receipt
3. International Passport

Remark: I tried to see if I could get a science to the process, I can only say, the only thing is God's grace and favour. I prayed and prayed. Of course, I practiced with a lot of transcripts from here as given to me by my friend. I also spoke with other students that have passed through the process.

Thanks everybody. May God bless you.
Congratulations Bro
Go and succeeded!!

Of course, God works in ways beyond our imagination... we see it in the complexity of life on earth. I've also read about the early old testament kings and new testament apostles. The one thing you will notice is that these were men of deep integrity, men of virtue, men of quality, although they weren't perfect. Can YOU stand the beatings, jailings and pain that apostle Peter endured by virtue of his decision to follow Jesus? Are you comparing yourself to David who spent years in the wilderness trying to avoid death at the hands of Saul? What of Joseph? Are you willing to go to jail, be a servant, be betrayed by your own kin, all the while maintaining a joyful attitude? These were men, who even in the face of adversity, refused to compromise their integrity... can we say the same of Nigerians?

We love to claim "grace" but cannot be counted on to endure 0.001% of the pain that the prophets of old endured. Yes God singled them out through grace, but you bet they paid a heavy price for that calling. You folks can't even be counted on to stay on a line without trying to cheat your way forward... sure grace indeed. When it comes to visas, nigerians want grace. When it comes to hard work and integrity, we find them massively wanting.
Maybe you got it wrong again.

Can you differentiate between grace and reward?
I guess you forgot to consider Solomon

TWoods:
I like your last line. In there lies the irony that you obviously missed. It seems God’s “favor” only exists in countries where people are too incompetent to rule themselves. Favor is simply grace unmerited. Favor is being able to wake up when others don’t, it is being blessed to breathe, enjoy good health and long life. Favor is NOT when you obtain a visa. The decision on whether a visa is issued or not isn’t based on how long you prayed or how well you fasted. It’s based on the fact that you met a clear set of criteria best known to the VO who interviewed you. Others may not get visas, but you don’t get to see the rationale for why they were denied. You have zero idea if they had once misrepresented themselves in previous applications. You have no clue if they have prior histories of visa denials... to say you were favored over them is to perpetuate the stereotype that we are a lazy people overly dependent on the spiritual since we are unable to think for ourselves. If we were competent enough to run a corrupt-free country, where everyone does the right thing, we won’t need a visa to go to America in the first place.

Let’s get real, we pray really hard, not because we love God, but because there is no hope elsewhere. We are simply emergency “Christians”, forced to lean on the spiritual in the face of grinding poverty and pervasive despondency.

I do not depend on favor to have electricity at home or travel to Germany tomorrow. I just benefit from being part of a society where integrity and hard work is favored over endless hypocritical church going.
You're wrong Bro, maybe as you have always been when it comes to the acknowledgement of God, it's isn't a surprise because the way God works is beyond your imagination, especially those far from him.
Why not read about Peter, Joseph, David, Daniel, Solomon and other distinguished youths we have in the Bible that were singled out through this same said grace and see how they got the grace among those that still has the said breath.

God's grace appears in all manner of ways!!

I guess the number of denial with good response today alone justifies the testimony(transcript) of Cassy14 when she rightly stated the number of denial before hers showing her gratitude to God.

I dont know if God seats in heaven & carries out visa lotteries on who to grant visa like you jokingly or mockingly said, but am certain it takes Gods favour to secure one. Eccl 9:11 the race is not to the swift nor the battle is to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor riches to men of understanding nor yet favour to men of skills.

That you sleep & rise, got ur visa while others did not or you got a job and others were not as lucky as u were is not because you are better, but because a higher authority chose to set you apart. You may call it luck but I call it favour.

So if you have forgotten the place of God in one's life by reason of long stay in the USA, I suggest u return to Nigeria and learn or relearn what Gods favour truelly is. smiley smiley
