Oga Twoods Oga Twoods!

You guys should keep encouraging his rude responses. He has information or he’s experienced with a process doesn’t necessarily mean he should respond to harmless (even if sometimes rhetoric or stupid) questions harshly. Truth is if he doesn’t contribute some other people will step up to assist.

I don't see any rude responses. He is telling it how it is. Last I checked, people don't like the truth. Imagine someone coming to the thread and asking "how do I get admission to study in USA". The best response to that kind of question is what "oga Twoods" has been giving.

TWoods:
Yours is a frankly idiotic post, written by someone who obviously cannot read. Here is her post, expressly stating that her sister has no papers.

Oga Twoods is not sparing the rod these days o.

Dalek:
look at them praising Trump, but if Buhari did same dey will start foaming in their mouth vibrating epileptical shouting tyrant, that he as no respect for Media or media is not safe.

we are all hypocrite in our own ways, and soon we admit that the Better. everyone knows the press love latching on the controversy and would taunt you with questions to see ur reaction. unfortunately for Trump being a dull fool fell for it.

another win for CNN.

so you want toco.parents Trump and buhari? Trump doesn't want liabilities to come and destroy his countries. Buhari allows Fulani herds men, whom I tag as liabilities, to destroy his country.. Shaking my head for you.

bedspread:
CNN are now a Bunch of Jokers and comedians......

Right from the Election period, CNN has being against the Trump presidency...

Presently a Full scale Genocide by The Fulani Herdsmen is going on in Nigeria and CNN called it a mere Land argument fight... " Wickedness of the Highest level".. I am beginning to see clearly that CNN is A Demonic and Devilish media house filled with Lies and looks for sympathy when scolded... We know CNN and their likes are yet to recover from the Unbelievable Trump Presidency.....

GOD BLESS DONALD TRUMP
GOD BLESS ALL WHO STAND FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS...

Only people that never see the truth and never speak the truth will hate on Trump. America is his country and he wants the best for America. If he does not want you in his country how is that supposed to be an issue. The question we should rather be askiing is this, did Trump accuse anybody falsely? Are African countries not shit holes? Even David Cameron said something good similar. Fantastically corrupt. Was he telling a lie too?

BlackAfrican:
Shut up.... Did Trump make the useless comment or not??

Yes he made the comment. Now over to you.. is Nigeria a shit hole or not?

LagosismyHome:
It always good to have a backup plan .... when i was a student I knew over 20 Nigerians who did the canada thing just as a backup with hardly any intention of using it

Then came the finanical crises when many people lost their h1b status and job. Having that backup came so handy and a lot have moved to Canada. Some have their citizenship now and have ported back to the US . .. I always recommend having this back up specifically .

You never cease to impress mama lagos. Thanks joor. Trump wahala no be here o.

So basically, towards the end of my program I start applying to jobs in Canada. Or is iy while I am on my opt?

Lovelywings:
I did understand your point, and was saying that an executive order isn't even needed because the H1B Visa process will wean most people out. So far, you've called me unnecessarily alarmist, contrarian and "too know". Not my arguments, but me as a person. Any more veiled insults you want to lob at me?

I'm sorry but using the European post-doc (aliens of extraordinary ability) as an example is misleading because in order to sponsor yourself for a GC you have to prove that you are an extraordinary alien and I guarantee you that no one on this board fits the bill. If they did, they would'nt be looking to Nairaland for advice. One of my more senior coworkers did this - she had to send newspaper articles written about her, as one of the first Kenyan women to get a PhD, and had household name leaders within our sector to write letters saying she was demonstrably a unique expert in her field. This is the track that people like Lupita Nyongo and the like use to get a green card.

I don't think its fair to imply that this is a viable option for people.

Clearly you have some experience with the US system. But clearly so do I. We can agree to disagree. My disagreeing with you does not make me contrarian (that implies you are the expert ). It means I have a slightly different experience than you do.

Lovelywings leave our Twoods for us o. He has been giving us expert advice for a while now.. if you vex him and he stops writing on this thread can you fill the void that he will leave... better leave our Twoods o. Shey you will not come and be going. But on a serious note. Can I finish my MSC in the USA and get a job in Canada? This trump wahala is too much sef. Please reply o.

kenneth4000:
Which university in usa can accept 2.96/4 Gpa for master program in engineering

Good question

TWoods:
Also, there is only so much executive orders can do. The OPT and H1B are enshrined in law and only congress can make substantive changes to them. The president can tighten a few screws with executive orders here and there but there is a limit to his power. Left to Trump, the diversity visa lottery system would long have ended and you would no longer be able to petition for an immigrant visa for relatives... but again, this requires legislative change and there is nothing he can do to this. This is not the Buhari government.

Twoods has spoken. It is what it is.

Teedawg:
lol better arrive quietly and mind your business oh if you choose to speak like them na your choice if you don't na your choice I wonder how you are able to talk sef in this cold

TWoods:

sunshineluv5:
bro please what's st. cloud state uni code for sending toefl test score?

I don't know own bro. You have to check toefl website for that info.

SireHamlet:
Per month?

Per month because na me kill Jesus. For the session or for my whole stay I'm not certain. But it's not per month.

bchi:
How did you apply to the school.
can I pm you??

You go to the school's website
Stcloudstate.edu

One thing I noticed since my arrival in the USA is that all Nigerians try so hard to talk like the Americans. I think it's a bad orientation. We have Americans in Nigeria and I don't see them trying to speak like us.. I think it's a slave mentality by the way. We feel inferior. I will retain my African accent. If I have children in the USA then they can claim to be Americans but I am a Nigerian man.

imperiouxx:
There are unforseen circumstances that can prevent one from attending the orientation. Schools will tell you orientation attendance is important to retain scholarship or GA. Still people would come up with many reasons. I've never attended any orientations before and I've missed GA orientation before. If you're close to the school, you should attend. But if you get your visa days after the orientation or you couldn't make it to U.S by the orientation date, as an int'l student who has to pass through immigration procedures, you've a reason....... nothing would hold your scholarship.

A Nigerian I met here told me that when he came in, it was the same thing.in fact he's was stricter. They made it clear that if you don't come on the orientation day that you would forfeit your admission. So I still think it varies with different schools.

kolly4gunn:
Bro i don try and check google but i didnt see the right link

Use wes.org to evaluate your OND and HND transcripts. Then you can use the equivalent to apply to most schools.

LagosismyHome:
Do i look like google ........... .

Some people are funny , so without even knowing your course or history, if it 1 or 2nd degree or budget i should do all research for you . what happened to your hand ?

Go and check joor . All schools information are online .

Heheheheheh first time I seen Lagosismyhome get mad. Maybe he thinks you are one of those online customer support people. He said thanks for the quick response.

femi312:
Same way there is no law that bans you from doing OPT after your studies for 3years if you are in STEM, but when they ask your study plan at the VISA Interview, we 'lie' that we will come back and never mention OPT.

.
A staff at my school's center for international students mentioned that the OPT program is under review. I then remembered that TWOODS already said that here. Make Oga Trump no mess with me o. Me that supported him all the way. I hope it doesn't affect STEM programs sha.

imperiouxx:
Forget about orientation. The most important date that you dont want to miss is whlen class starts.

The orientation is not that UNIMPORTANT. My school stated that in order to be granted the scholarship, one has to attend the orientation. The scholarship also qualifies you for the instate tuition plan. So it's your choice... whether the scholarship is important to you or not. This may not apply to every school sha..

Hi. I was searching for topics relating to WAKANOW and I stumbled on this post. Please how did you make payment for your flight? Was it through their bank account or interswitch/quickteller?
I paid into their GTB account since yesterday and I haven't gotten my e-ticket since then.
I'm just worried my booking doesn't get cancelled and have to re-book at a high rate.
Kindly enlighten me how you went about getting you e-ticket same day.
Thank you.

Hello dear. I paid through my ATM card. I did not get the ticket immediately though but the same day.

Teedawg:

TWoods:
Visas, visas, visas... a word of advice... those wishing to study in the United States should do so now, likely there will be changes to the h1b and stem opt programs in 2018.

Who has pdf versions of pacesetter novels Thanks!

Welcome back Bro. you went on ghost mode in a bit. i Want to personally say thank you for your time. I got my visa approved. I made it about myself just like you advised me. Thanks. The changes you are talking about, will it be buhari kind of change or the other kind?
Thanks again.k
