Hey guys.

I cried all night and still crying after being denied yesterday.

I totally tended up and blanked out.

Last night all my responses kept flowing in my head and sounded like I was muttering gibberish.

I feel so hopeless.

It was like someone else possessed my body as all I heard rehearsed flew out of my head.

I sent an email to my program director and her response brought more tears to my eyes.

She said she will keep the admission open all through next year, hoping I can join them.

I am afraid to book another date and go through another heartbreak.

I am hiding in my office toilet as I type still crying.

I feel so sad
I can assist with a mock interview and possibly prepare an answer for you

1. Yes the i20 showed that the balance will be covered by "Family funds"

2. For ordinary 3,400? Lol no pls, most consular officers won't ask for such a small amt.. Even guys with scholarship of 6k and deficit of over 25k wasn't asked to provide acc statement.. He was asked who's funding d deficit, he stated. VO said ok and turned down the applicants offer to tender acc statement saying it's not necessary.

These things aren't cast in stone last last
Thanks

Finish ur MSc and get a proper / legit job. this will guarantee ur stay in d USA.

U can do side hustle during and after school.

BGodsonMay:
Thanks for your response. Please, what about Mississippi State University?? I want to be sure it's a GRE/GMAT/IELTS waived school. Thanks once again.
TOEFL / IELTS, GRE /GMAT can be used to apply to USA schools.

In my case I have about five years experience post NYSC. I also have 7 IT certifications so those were part of the reason why they were waived.

Good evening everyone, please I need a list of schools that are language testing waivers for a master's degree.
Thanks and God bless.
Once again, congratulations to everyone that was granted Visa today.
UALR - English Language and GMAT/GRE may be waived based on
1. language of taught
2. interview with program coordinator
3. Years of experience (GMAT n GRE)
4. motivation letter
