If this your first attempt don’t mention her, if it’s second attempt and you have identify with anybody in US before mention her.

Omotola222:
Hello guys please I would like to know if using my Uncle in the USA has my sponsor won’t be a red flag… tho hus the one who wants to sponsor me throughout the schooling process he his a police officer ... willing to drop his US bank statement account and any other documents I would be needing in the process.
Am applying to 2 schools 1 in Vienna very close to Maryland and the one is in Maryland..

Pls note my Uncle stays in Maryland ..

Thanks

A lot of red flags �

First, your sponsor is US, that sends signal to the VO you want to go and reunite with your uncle and not going to school.

Second, your school is close to the city your uncle stays.

Then the part why you choose the school, Start with “during my search I found out Dr. bleep research interest which aligns with mine” then add other two point you listed.

All the best.

Boonducks101:
Good morning everyone,

My sincerest apologies for just responding to those who asked me to submit my transcript and I didn't. Honestly, I was disappointed in myself that I didn't come across this thread at all, before going in for the interview. Reading a few transcripts here, made me feel I didn't deserve or work hard towards preparing for the interview. Just like you asked, I'll post it and then I'm including the new transcripts I'm working on for my next interview.

Please review and put in your input. I won't mind a mock as well. I need all the help I can get.

Please @Fairheart @LagosismyHome @Pefuele @Brown2Green @Nobody @NigPatriot @Textrem @Time2win @Tesla, I am willing to learn. I also welcome anyone willing to help in this regards. Many thanks

PREPARATORY TRANSCRIPT
University of New Haven
Programme: MBA (Concentration: Global Supply Chain Management)
Funding: $3,564
CoA: $28,461
Attempt: Approved by the grace of God
Single & in mid-30’s


So what changed in your application?
I believe I was not able to provide sufficient reasons enough to convince the VO of my study plans and return

Why did you choose this University?
My criteria for school selection was primarily focused on a curriculum offering a Capstone project which I’ll leverage on to gain an international practical experience. I’ve been in communication with Dr Bleep on his research “The impact of Bullwhip effect on manufacturing supply chain when firms share their MRP”. I strongly wish to work under his tutelage as it will help me address irregular swings in forecasts that expands to large variances, which causes inefficiencies in my current job role. This is essential to my career progression as the knowledge gained will be useful for applications at work. Also, I was awarded a dean’s scholarship.

What are your plans after graduation?
My organization has made a commitment to grant me a study leave once my visa is approved. I will be returning immediately to take on a higher role as a senior corporate strategist, leading all of supply and distribution chains of the Group.

Where do you work and what do you do at your place of work?
I am a Contract and Procurement Specialist. I work with XXXXXX which is one of the subsidiaries of XXXX

1. I optimize purchasing synergies between the company’s entities and establish SLA’s with vendors while monitoring contractual activities
2. I develop distribution plan and forecast quarterly distribution expectations
3. I determine the organizations need by participating in the development of specifications, studying sales, inventory levels & cycles and access supply-side market conditions and
4. Finally, I monitor systems, purchases and policies and create value through strategic sourcing and supply chain and oversee major pricing decision.

Have you Travelled before?
Yes, I recently made a trip (I intentionally made a trip outside the country because the previous VO asked twice)

Which schools did you apply to?
I applied to 6 schools

Why did you choose to study in the US?
I took into cognizance the significant contribution the US has made towards advancement in the supply chain industry. This is a system I would love to learn from as I will be fully equipped with the knowledge and practical skills needed in solving challenges associated with the Nigerian supply chain system so as to be able to make ground breaking achievements in the industry.

Why not study in Nigeria?
Without requiring extra months of study leave at work or an extended stay in the US, I have the opportunity to modify my curriculum and take some certification courses in other fields. I won’t have that opportunity here in Nigeria.

Who is your sponsor?
My dad is fully sponsoring me throughout the period of my program. Additionally, I have some saved up funds.

What does he do?
He owns a steel manufacturing company which produces high reinforcement bars used for large construction of concrete structures, roads, bridges and more. He also has a construction company and is invested in real estate properties

How did you find out about this school?
It came highly recommended through an online community and MBA forum called India MBA discussions

What skills you will be learning from this MBA degree?
I’ll be learning management and analytical skills. I will be learning skills like Strategic management, leadership, problem-solving, decision making, and analytical skills to crunch data for solutions.

Why are you going for your studies now?
Nigeria is transforming her business processes from manual to automated processes, and the time is perfect to key into that to develop myself and contribute my quota to national building and development.

How does this fit into your career plans?
I have a wealth of experience in the supply chain industry but my career goal in the senior management position is to focus on supply chain Analytics. This specialization will develop my analytical skills so I can provide advice to Organizations in Nigeria who are involved in the supply and distribution of petroleum products within the downstream sector, while leading with management skills

Tell me about your study plans
My program is for 22months and I will be taking 25unit Core courses in the first year that includes Strategic Management, Managing in a Global Economy, and more. It has been carefully planned for me to understand an organization and it’s business impact in the society. In my second year, I will be focused on electives with 15units and subjects in Supply chain Analytics and Resilience, Business forecasting, Data Visualization and Communication, I’ll learn and apply the right tools for optimization and leverage on big data for decisions. I’ll be concluding with a capstone project which will in-depthly help me learn the mastery of my discipline before graduation, after which, I will be coming to Nigeria using the skills acquired to contribute to the system.

How will this course benefit you?
It will provide me with the skills needed to have a successful career as a supply chain professional as my current portfolio requires me using data to improve processes, efficient supply lines while shortening the supply chain lifecycle. I will be better equipped for my role after this program

What skills you will be learning from this MBA degree?
I’ll be learning management and analytical skills. I will be learning skills like Strategic management, leadership, problem-solving, decision making, and analytical skills to crunch data for solutions.




Now I feel this is exceptionally long and might bore the VO, maybe I'm too uptight about my responses but please I need your help on this

chaiks:
Hi guys,
One of my friends got expelled from a school in UK because her programing skills weren't that good and she failed one course after two attempts. Though it was online, data and network issues and Lagos long hours of work and traffic affected her badly.i told her to apply to Alabama because of no application fee. Now there is a disciplinary section to choose yes or no if she has ever been dismissed from a school by misconduct or otherwise. What should she do now please?

America and UK are two different country, her answer is NO

Davsidoo:
My resumption is January and as it is I only have July 2022 as the closest date available. Pls what do you advise guys?

I have august 18.
We will have to wait for dates to pop up.

Abuja or Lagos, which one is good for second trail? One who has been denied before.

I have option to either choose Lagos or Abuja, from experience which would likely have a closer date of November for spring 2022?

Valolisa147:


Please i have an issue. My appointment name has a slight typographical error. Please how do i correct this? Is this a bigger problem if not sorted out?

-See Valentine
-And Vslentine.

Can i make corrections or will it affect my interview? Thanks

I don’t think this is a problem, provided the applicant name matches what’s on your passport and dsc 160.

Appointment made by………. may not be a problem.

NigPatriot:


Just say you were issued the 214b because you were not able to demonstrate your intent to pursue your F1 intent.

What has changed?

I was nervous and was not able to prove to the VO that I didn't have immigrant intent.

You'll get on your second try. Don't fret!

God bless you this was the reason I log in today and you nailed it. Thanks

Adedapomola1993:
Please, on the DS-160,the person paying for the trip is the same as sponsorer right? So I can just input my sponsor details .please its urgent
