Of a truth, God is a good God and His mercies endures forever. This is my testimony

I started working on furthering my studies last year. I took TOEFL (102), GRE (296), and applied to only 2 schools. I actually only completed the application for one as I couldn’t get a research supervisor/committee for the second school before the deadline for the application was over. Even though it was stated that the minimum score for GRE for the program I am going is 300, I applied with faith believing God that no School will deny my admission. I focused on God, won souls for Christ fasted and prayed, and sowed seeds to secure my admission and my visa. Today God proved himself that he is not a user of man but rather he is looking for whom to bless.

I arrived the US Consulate at about 8.40am. I first joined one queue outside (where people queue up before they enter and go through security). When it got to my turn on that queue the security official said it’s not yet time for my interview as the people going in now were for 8.30 and 9.00. He asked me to wait that he will call for the 11.00 applicants soon. So I waited for about 45mins (standing all through, no chairs) before they called in the applicants for the 11.00am interview (this was like around 9.20am). So I went in and passed through all the rigorous stages of screening, finger prints, etc…..it was a very long line. Finally I arrived in front of window 3 for the interview at about 10.00am.

The VO was one oyibo lady that wasn’t smiling at all. The interview went as follows:
Me: Good morning ma….smiling sheepishly
VO: pass me your passport and your documents
Me: passed my passport, i-20, sevis receipt, ds 160 confirmation, etc
VO: What are your study plans?
Me: I’m going for graduate studies at the University of blah blah blah, where I will be studying for my Masters degree in blah blah blah. The program begins this Summer and ends next year after which I will return home and utilize the knowledge and research skills I have acquired in the US.
VO: Do you have a Bachelors Degree?
Me: Yes. I have a BSc in blah blah blah
VO: What have you been doing before now?
Me: I work two jobs. As a bleep at bleep company and a part time job as a bleep at bleep.
VO: Who is paying for all this?
Me: My aunt
VO: What does she do?
Me: She works with bleep as a bleep
VO: started typing plenty plenty things for like 40seconds
Me: speaking silently in my mind “Lord grant me favour in the sight of this lady, I cannot be denied a visa”
VO: Congratulations, your visa will be ready in 3 working days. Hands me a white paper which indicates the DHL branch where I’m to pick up my visa. She also gave me a pamphlet inviting me for some sought of seminar with Education USA at the Consulate in July. She said the seminar is for all international students.

Thank God…!!! My three days fast and anointing oil finally paid off……Thank you Jesus

I also want to use this opportunity to thank the moderators of this group and everyone who in one way on the other has offered help and advice to novice like me. Everything I know about the immigration process, interview, application, etc I learnt on this group and I am grateful to this family for all that they do. May God bless you all
Congratulations....
but wats with this bleep bleep thing; if that's wat others were doing, would you av learnt a thing or two?...congrats again

Lemme answer u the best way I can.

1. Yes, it is still possible. Most of the unis admit students on a rolling basis. Although getting funding may be too late. If u get money to pay school fees and all, it's not too late. Some schools go still dey admit till around June. This means if na scholarship u d find, could be late but if na just admission. There is still time.
2. Tips on passing toefl and gre. Well, different strokes for different folks. I am a lazy student. I didn't prepare for Toefl or GRE. I just studied Gruber for one week. I didn't fail sha. Get materials, u fit go for lessons, etc. Anyone u prefer.
3. You have to check Google out. I think the minimum na total package of 23k usd. Saw it somewhere. Go to www. Msinus . Com and check wella, there's a link to it somewhere.

Finally, u need to b sure about this cos u go spend money and time o. If u think it's possible to get urself sorted quickly (transcript, reference letters, etc.), go for it. If not, relax and prepare for next terms(spring or fall 2017).

PS: a very wonderful letter of motivation goes a long way, it could cover up for a low cgpa, low toefl/gre scores, anything. Write in an interesting manner, let the reader see how gingered u are and it could give a strong impression that u're the student they want.
....thank you very much for your response; I appreciate and God bless...but bros, u na efiko oooo.... grin u study for 1 Week go write d exam grin...congratulations on the score...

I av been a silent reader for sometime now and i'll like to appreciate everyone here; your contributions av been really helpful to those dat asked or didn't ask....God bless you much...Please I want to ask some questions and I would be glad to get response from u guys... am a graduate with 3.56/5.0 cgpa and about to round up my NYSC program this April; I wish to do my masters (construction Mgt.) in the US with little knowledge of how to go about the application processes n eventually getting admission successfully. I am yet to write my GRE and TOEFL (which'll be my 1st time) ....pls my questions goes thus:
1. Is it possible for me to still get admitted this year considering the timeline from march to application deadline dis 2016 (God's willing I score high in both exams)?
2. Any tips on passing the GRE n TOEFL pls?
3. Also, please I would be glad if u can help me with schools having low tuition fees in the US...

Will be very happy to hear from y'all
Thanks
