Oga it is impossible.

If you want to advertise date or date search go ahead of the admin allow you. Don't come and advertise impossible stunts because intelligent Nairalanders will not agree with you . You just asked a question today and all of a sudden you are teaching us impossible possibilities.

She got visa today jumped on flight to the U.S. next day , okay how long does it take to collect your visa after approval? As it stands, the fastest OIS Premium pickup cannot deliver your visa in 1 week except if there is no much deliveries they need to do.

NOTE: I am not against anything you want to do if you are permitted by the admin but don't preach impossible stunts. People have been sent back to their countries (not Nigerians alone) from Point of entries for arriving way too late to school after the start-of-class. Let people who want to defer do so. Many students or family relied solely on the information they read on NL, so we should always say things as it stands. 👍
So somehow how I managed to graduate with 3.89/5, I feel this is uncompetitive for a funded Msc or PhD the GPA is well below my capacity. I'm being told that if I do a credential evaluation, it may push me to around 3.4/4.0 or 3.5/4.0 which can give me a competitive edge for Masters or PhD

I'm keenly and have already sent my credentials via my school to Spantran , how true is this please?

[quote author=teejerny post=136363902][/quote]My name is Precious Efe, and I am writing to express my keen interest in the possibility of joining your Antimicrobial Discovery Center at Northeastern University as a graduate student (MS or PhD) beginning in Fall 2026.

I have been deeply inspired by your recent work, particularly the landmark review published in Nature titled “Sophisticated natural products as antibiotics" (July 2024), which presents elegant mechanisms such as self-promoted entry, resistance evasion, and supramolecular complex formation—particularly in compounds like teixobactin and darobactin . Additionally, your recent involvement in discovering clovibactin, a potent Gram-negative antibiotic derived from previously uncultured soil bacteria via advanced technologies like microfluidics, underscores your lab’s pioneering approach to antimicrobial discovery .

I hold a BSc in Microbiology (CGPA 3.45/4.0) from Delta State University, Nigeria, and completed an undergraduate thesis investigating the antimicrobial activity of Tridax procumbens against E. coli and S. aureus. In this project, I led plant extract preparation, conducted susceptibility testing, and applied statistical analysis using R and Python. My research experience as a volunteer research assistant further deepened my skills in environmental microbiology techniques, PCR, microbial culture assays, and scientific communication.

Your group’s focus on rediscovering natural products from uncultured environmental microbes, identifying persister cell mechanisms, and applying microfluidic screening to massively scale antibiotic discovery aligns profoundly with my interests and experience. I am excited by the prospect of combining my background in plant-derived antimicrobials with your advanced discovery techniques to contribute to novel antibiotic leads or microbial therapeutic strategies.

I would be honored to learn whether you will be recruiting graduate students for Fall 2026, and whether any funded positions or assistantships are available within your lab. I have attached my CV for your consideration and would be happy to provide additional materials such as transcripts or references upon request.

Thank you very much for your time and consideration. I would welcome the chance to contribute to—and evolve within—your cutting-edge research on next-generation antimicrobials.

Warm regards,
Precious Efe

YOU
Please someone here should help mentor me, maybe there's something I am doing wrong or I'm not just lucky.

Everyone God created has element of luck. You are doing something wrong.


YOU
I have applied to schools and the story have always been the same rejection upon rejection.
See the mail I got from a professor at Grand valley State University.

If you are genuinely qualified, one of those schools would have admitted you. U.S. institutions operate Equal Opportunity for All, and admitting international students gives them a reputation.


YOU
While I have been on this since 2021 , I'm trying my best to keep reaching out to professors, I recently reached out to a professor at Texas and we had a zoom session, the session lasted over an hour and since then she has ghosted me , no response from her even after asking for recommendation letters that I sent to her.

As I mentioned above, reaching out to professors or having hours with a professor on Zoom and sending application materials does not guarantee admission. Your overall academic standings doesn’t worth the department you are seeking, and that is what the Texas professor concluded , therefore, getting back to you is not necessary (though she might still get back as profs are usually busy).


YOU
What should I do? Somebody should mentor me.

This bank work don tire me ooooo, I want to practice my passion and do what I really love.

I can not accurately direct you until I discover your academic background, i.e., cgpa, course of study, intending program, etc. You may also need more wisdom and concentration in sending out your admission applications. You may also have a problem in the area of SOP and recommendations. 👍
I studied Microbiology and have a cgpa of 3.89/5.0 and converted it is 3.25/4.0

Your refusal is not permanent based on that slip. Quickly go to your social media (especially Facebook or the ones you listed in your ds-160) and make some privacy settings to be public.....

eg " Who can see my friend list ?
Religion... Christian or Muslim ?
Who can see my Date of birth ?

●▪︎▪︎ The answers to the above must be everybody, indicate religion, and everyone respectively. Some people will chose only me or friend of friends, some will say i prefer not to say my sex or religion. The U.S. embassy wants everything to be public at least during your visa application. 👍

I secured an MPOwer Loan for fall2024, however I didn't go ahead with the process.
I have an offer for Fall 2025, I'm concerned about the chances of visa approval with M power loan.

Please is it advisable to use MPOwer Loan as POF or use someone else's account for proof of funds.

I need your guidance guys, I need your wisdom to navigate this.

Hello everyone, I have been in the operations unit of tier 1 bank and have spent 4 years and currently an ABO the highest cadre in my unit is the Group head who's a DM and have spent over 20 years, I noticed promotion is extremely slow in operations and have decided to switch to sales retail banking .

What's your advice, is this a good move? I also notice other banks pouched Relationship managers more than Operations staff.
While I know marketing can be mentally demanding , I feel operations is stressful and rigid and the exposure to cases of fraud is high.

Before throwing the baton to my line Manager to exit the unit I need advice on this please

[quote author=Tiwasplug post=106884345]Maybe somebody with some tangible advice here, I'm 26 with a degree in microbiology and currently working with one of the biggest banks in Nigeria as an Executive trainee, I'm interested in pursuing a Masters in public health as the growth process in the banking sector is extremely slow . My father feels getting an msc from an American University won't guarantee a job. I tried porting to other banks to get the next level but I work In Transaction operations as Vault custodian and as such it's very difficult to port to other banks unlike marketing.
Please someone should advise as to guarantee of getting a good job after MPh programme.
I have excellent grades at first degree and can easily make a distinction for second degree.
