Got the place very early n was surprised to still see ppl there before me.I was the odd one out cus guys n ladies were all putting on suit while I am having on a blue native attire(no flamboyant design)

Security was like something from prison break.Was interviewed by the white man sitting behind window 2.The follow conversation took place.

VO:pass ur passport pls
ME:ok sir
VO:matthew(he called me by name)y do u wanna go to Kentucky?
ME:To complete a master degree in masscom

ME:i have been working with Cornerstone educonsult
VO:what do u do there?
ME:Am the public relation officer

ME:he is a farmer sir
VO:he stopped typing n became interested.What does he produce"?
ME: maize n cassava in large quantity n he also rent out tractors

ME: the weather sir.Its more like lagos.It is always warm most times(o never reach Yankee before not to talk of ky)i sounded conbinving

worry357:
I he wants to succeed he must very clearly put right the thing for which he was rejected last time.
or he will just be rejected again.

Pay Slip, Salary SOA, and Letter of sponsorship doesn't take decade before getting

justwise:
He needs to apply for student visitors visa and not ordinary visiting visa.

Since his university is sponsoring he it's important that he gets letter of sponsorship from them, plus other documents you listed above

Ok... thanks. so if he get d document ready he can reapply immediately. Cos he was denied last month

justwise:
Sponsoring him for a study in the UK or holiday?

Studies. It just a month training program

justwise:
What was the reason/reasons for the refusal?

A university in Nigeria wer he work is sponsoring him through (ETF). but you know school processing, it going to take weeks before its approved. so he decided to use his company account cos he also has a company.

He said he was denied because
1. He did not use is salary account
2. He did not include his pay in slip
3. That he as to get a letter from ETF.
Thanks

Why not talk about peace and conflict resolution as an area you are interested and only two schools in US offers that area of specialization. You need to talk intelligently, stop muddling things up. Post your pre interview response here and CC me, I will help you edit it and give a better response.

Oga Slimmy I dey hail u. Hope u neva 4get me.

curiobling:
i contacted wayne state university early this wk,after much emails conversations they sent me a link that exempted some countries from writing SAT or TOEFL and its a surprise Nigeria was not listed but liberia was among. i love the sch but now that i dont have toefl or sat and i thought nigeria can study in usa without test of english. i wish to continue my undagrad by transfering my credit pls how true is wayne state

You are still asking how true is it wen u already got ur response from reliable source. I don't thinks we have any staff or the admission officer of Wayne state university on Nairaland.

sammynwaGod:
Good morning my people am back again I got admitted to a school in California which my resumption date is 13july, my problem now is that the school hasn't sent me mt I-20 and they are already telling me that my school fee is due by June 1. Is it advisable to pay the fee even when I haven't gotten visa?

Wait till you get ur I-20, probably it as already been sent but as not gotten to u. It might be sent through regular mail which take weeks or month b4 it arrive.

It not advisable to pay ur fee without u getting ur Visa yet, even d embassy discourage that. But if u know ur faith is strong that u will surely get the Visa and u have enough money, u can go ahead and pay. But make sure u ask ur graduate coordinator of there refund policy incase.

worry357:
Ok Mr clever
Why don't YOU answer his question instead of just critisizing me?
Let's see YOUR answer to the poster.

I wasn't criticising you. Was only telling u 2 read post very well. Probably u only glance 2ru initially.

worry357:
You won't get a visa until you pay the fees.
Bt your post is confusing, it is not the school that issues a visa, you must apply for that when you get admission .

Read d post very well. He's asking if it advisable to pay d tuition fee even when he's yet to apply for Visa. I don't know what u are confuse about, and he did not say the school issue Visa.

slimmy05:

Hi..
I have gone through the pages of this thread and the old ones and none answered my question so i had to register to ask my question..

Please i just got admission at Sunderland uni. My aunt stays in sunderland and will be responsible for my accomodation, meanwhile i have enough maintainance funds plus accomodation money in my account to take to the embassy and apply for a visa..

My question is at the port of entry into the U.K, if asked where i would be staying, do i tell them i would be staying with my aunt till i get an accomodation??

Yea u can tell them you will be staying with your Aunt, make sure u av d address and the phone number, cos u might be ask

EdetMavo:
Gurus in the house, your help is needed urgently....

Do I print a new bank statement for my visa interview, or I should use the one that I sent to the school in order for them to issue I-20?

It advisable you print a new one, cos it will be up to date

icedbeatz:
Thanks, guess sevis fee is $200 while visa fee is #31,200. As one who wants to reapply do I need to pay the sevis $200 before the visa fee ?

No you don't need to pay SEVIS again
