imperiouxx: May I ask which course were you admitted for in the school? I guess no GRE, GMAT, SAT, TOEFL or CGPA/Grades required for this kind of admission.

Well, you know the reason(s) + answer(s) yourself. Just pray it's your lucky day because US needs what will benefit them even at worse after the applicant's finished studying. Though nothing is impossible but dis fit tey to be posibu o!

flynbird: I just hope it wouldn't be an hindrance cos it looks like I have to take a 6months history bank statement sad
Stop saying negative stuffs, You have to claim the exact thing you want.

Hold your passport and prophesy onto it, that it shall be retained for your visa by the VO.

If You need spiritual guidance on this, send a pm.

You are blessed.

GboyegaD: It is the OPD. Once you come in through the main gate, it is the main building to your left. Just tell them what you want to do and you would be directed further. Please try to get there early enough say before 10am.
Thank You so much my brother, will get there early.

flynbird: I don't understand this 6months statement thing. Does it mean if he prints out the bank statement today then it must show transaction starting from Febuary 10 till July 10 ? I'm Kinda confusedhuh
Nope, I don't think so.

I think it means the time range between the printing of the statement of account and the interview should not be more than 6months.

Let my oda ogas say more on this sha, I might be wrong 'coz I'm a learner myself. smiley

bigfrancis21: Olarwarlay, congratulations to you!

Did you say a Nigerian woman attended to you? Or was it the black american lady you're referring to? Cos a friend of mine was there today at the embassy and he said a black american lady interviewed him. Is it the same woman you're referring to?
Sorry about the misconception, I think I mistook Her for a Nigerian.

My bad!

My interview experience......

Got to the embassy some minutes to 7, forgot to drop my phone with my brother so i had to go back looking for him and that took sometime. Finally got back for the security check and all other stuffs. Got in after all the rigorous checks and had to sit and wait for my ticket number to show up. Let me quickly add that i had Sanyeri sitting right beside me and we chatted till my number showed on the screen grin grin, he's a cool guy...

Was interviewed by the Nigerian woman in Window 5, she was asking lots of questions from applicants but would issue visa if you answer well. After placing my fingers for the prints,

VO: Where is your school in the US
Me: Minnesota
VO: When did you finish high school?.
Me: 2005 (i already planned to add my diploma program to fill up the space, but something told me not to)
VO: And what have you been doing since then?.
Me: I obtained a diploma in business and commercial law at University of Jos in 2009(and then stopped again)
VO: And what else?.
Me: I then joined (named my brother's company) in 2010 and work there as the Logistics Analyst.
VO: Did you take any standardized test?.
Me: Yes i took the TOEFL test and the SAT exams
VO: What was your SAT score
Me: I boldly told her, 1270 [s](I know i fumbled in the exam 'coz i wasn't so chanced to read for it, but i said it with confidence)[/s]
VO: Why do you need a degree in Business Administration?
Me: I have a basic legal understanding of business and will like to add on new skills for effective operations and distribution strategy so as to advance professionally here in Nigeria...(Yvete, God bless you for this grin)
VO: Do you have your WAEC result here?.
Me: Yes
VO: Can i see it?
Me: I gave her and then she asked for the online printout, told her i didn't bother printing it out online again since i have the originals.
VO: Tell me the names of the schools you applied to
Me: Minnesota State Uni, Arizona State Uni, Murray State Uni, Georgia State Uni
VO: Why didn't you apply to any Nigerian University?
Me: No reason, i just didn't apply to any because i already got admissions in the US
VO: Who's sponsoring you?
Me: My brother
VO: What does he do?
Me: He's into telecommunications and a trade partner with MTN Nigeria and Globacom Nigeria(quickly explained what exactly he does for both company)
VO: Checks through her system(i guess she was looking at my ds160) and asked, so you work for your brother right?.
Me: Yes, i do
VO: Do you have any relative in the US?
Me: No, i don't.
VO: Okay, if you feel you are been treated against your rights in the US then you'll need the info on this handbill. Hands me the pick up paper, retained my passport and told me to pick on thursday.
Me: Thank you very much Ma and have a nice day ahead.

Notes:- The only thing she asked to see was my waec certificate. She didn't check my admission letter, statement of account, letter of sponsorship or my not so good SAT score report. cheesy

To all prospective applicants, please pray very well ooo. I prayed like tomorrow wasn't gonna come, fasted for almost 21 days prior to my interview and didn't blink my eye all through yesterday night. All i was praying to God to give me was his favor and a sweet testimony.

While you are waiting for your number on the screen, calm your spirit and just keep thanking God in advance.

I pray everyone else gets their visa approved in Jesus name.

God bless Imperiouxx, Yvete, GboyegaD, OjaP, Kpolli, Lisadem, Seunbunmi, Babsharon, and everyone else on the thread that i can't remember to mention now...

You guys Rock!!! wink grin

Ricky Rozay: Bro, you forgot to Add something here.. It is not that easy as the way you just stated it here.. Lol!!

Seriously, because he will have to attend his current school for atleast a semester before he can be able to transfer his credits to his New school. Hope you know that.

And this also means he will still have to pay the first semester tuition fee for his current school which is stated on his i-20 before he can be permitted to transfer to another college or university in the US...
A transfer is possible without attending first semester at your university, Uncle Gboyega is very right 'coz i've done my research too and ma Sis Yvete also confirmed that.

Thanks for the love bro..... Cheers!!!

GboyegaD: What state are you heading to? Like I said which Imperioux had also reiterated, start looking for your Community College from now.
I'm heading to Minnesota State but looking at making a transfer to Dallas, so I can be close to my cousin for a start.
