I won't be the one to tell you to lie about the number of schools you applied to. Just so you know, many that applied to one school and told the V.O that, got their visa. Some V.O might see you as an unserious fellow if you applied to only one school as you can't predict the outcome of admissions or the school is an easy school to get admission from, example is Lincoln university/Virginia International University a.k.a Visa mill schools. It all depends on how you table your case to the V.O. If you table your case well, you will get your visa approved. Some people that applied to 15 schools have been refused visa, so it's not by the number schools you applied to. Best is to be sincere and be ready to prove anything you say to the V.O. if you lie, they might request for the admission letter. Some do lie and get free. Just be ready.

Thanks so much, this has allayed my fears. I'll definitely stick to the one school i applied to then. You never know what these people already know about you.

There is no harm in saying you applied to schools in other countries. Just be ready to why USA and not other countries.

Thanks Time2win for your response. But any advice on the part where i only applied to one university in the US. Should i apply to more to make up for numbers or will i be fine if i just mention that i applied to this one that offered me the admission?

So i have noticed that the VOs almost always ask how many universities an interviewee applied to.
Unfortunately i only applied to one in the US and i got in, the other schools i applied to are in the UK.

Is this a disadvantage for me? Also I wouldn't want to lie but i'm worried how badly this can impact my chances.

Can the experienced seniors here in the house please help out?

Your statement of result can subtitute for ur I.D card...Some institutions collected back their I.d card immediately after graduation...I graduated from unilag and we've submitted our I.d card cos we were instructed to do so...so we are using our statement of result as a means of identification and you should be able to do the same

Thank you very much.
I have my statement of result, fee clearance card and university certificates. Even my school fees receipt from yr1 to final year dey, so i guess I'm covered.

I've got a problem. I hope someone here can help me with ideas or a solution.

So I've been posted to Lagos and I've been in Lagos for some months now but i schooled in Calabar(Unical).
Now the problem is i don't have a recent id card and i can't start heading to Calabar now to get it and even if i could, i wouldn't be able to get one before Wednesday. So any bright ideas would be really appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Lagos peeps, where y'all at?
