Sure you can ask
I’ve been following this thread for a while , my family isn’t in naija, I was supposed to finish sch 2020 (extra year ) but because of covid everything got rubbished . This year I collected my transcript in school (didn’t later finish the extra year) , I’m planning on using the transcript to continue once I travel. Someone I know did this same thing when he was in 300 level here and he continued his course in USA when he travelled.
What are my chances and what are the things I should do ? I don’t want to use a tourist visa, I know some of my mates that bought results to use to travel , claiming to go over there to do masters .
I don’t want to do that .
I just want to continue and grad over there .

Hello, you have a good profile already. Try to take the GRE and aim to score at least 300. You don’t have to pay anyone anything. You have all the information you need here. I repeat don’t pay anyone you honestly don’t need to. You can check out these schools;
University of Akron
University of Alabama Birmingham
Wish you the best.

I'm in a dilemma, I'm torn between continuing with my low paying job which is not in line with my course of study or quitting to focus more on my graduate school application.

I'm also planning to apply for Canadian Express entry while preparing for my master's application. But the problem here is that I don't have up to 3 years experience yet, I have to wait till next year April.


For the graduate school application, I plan to take GRE and TOEFL and I need time to myself to prepare and also run around for my transcript and recommendation letters. Working won't give me the time I feel I need to do these things. I have about #700k saved up which I plan to use for this application.

What do you advice I do in such situation

Here is my profile
Undergraduate course: Pure and Applied Chemistry
CGPA: 4.3/5

Hello! There is no Hope in Lagos, I applied for emergency since last month approximately 4 weeks now. They have not replied. Lagos is ghosting everybody, do not waste your time.
Did you apply to Abuja and how long did it take for them to respond ?

Book your flight with wakanow, even with your naira account. They are very efficient

Please has anyone ever booked a flight ticket using Quickteller? That is what I intend to do and I want to be sure it is okay. Thanks

Good morning guys

Please does anybody know where a TB test can be done here in Nigeria and the result will be accepted in the US schools?

Go to Clina Lancet Laboratory at Lagos or Abuja.

Post your transcript first. Let people scrutinize to see what went wrong then you can take the next step.

Hi all. Pls I need help in planning. I want to get this right. I'm married with 3 kids. Graduated 2011 with GPA of 4.20/5. studied Public relations and advertising
I'm trying to apply to schools that can waive both GRE and TOEFL for me.


Where I'm having issues is experience.
Served 2013-2014
Volunteered in the org 2014-2015(thought they will employ me but they didn't, it's a govt org so I left)
Learnt fashion design in 2017, I've been sewing since then.
Started working with jiji since Sept last year as a field sales rep. It's more like part time, I still sew.
I'm looking to apply for communications or specifically advertising.

Please what are my chances? how do I go about this. I'm looking at fall of next year. I will appreciate anyone that can help me strategize.

Which cohort are you aiming for? Fall 2021 (this is unlikely), spring 2022, Fall 2022?.

The process has been repeated countless times.
Decide on the schools you want to apply to.
Seek the requirements of these schools.
Get all documents handy.
Begin the application process.

But before you apply to any school especially those they require application fees, try to contact a correspondent from the school - Graduate co-rdinator, a faculty member.

Also what do you mean by you don't want to waste money? Are you referring to the application fees as waste of money or money spent on agents? If it's the latter then you certainly don't need those.

Some of us have 1.5 hrs to catch a connecting flight. So thank your stars


If you arrived at the first city in the US and your next flight is in 1.5hr. There’s a high probability that you’d miss that flight cause the first city is your point of entry and it might take a long time. Leaving at least 4 hours in between is more ideal.

At the bolded, do you have any reason why you don't want to take any of these exams, if not both at least one. You have a good CGPA, any of those exams will apparently make you more competitive, but it's still your call and your choice to make.

What are your chances for? You didn't say the course or degree you want to go for.
As for the experience, you have to demonstrate the synchronism between what the masters or whatever degree you're going for and your past, most preferably your future career projection.

Fall 2022 seems far, but with laxity it will only be a blink of an eye.

Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 16 by kastgeraldino: 1:41pm On Jul 08, 2021
I guess so, but that's what the airline got for me on my single ticket. So if my miss, they'd have to put me on another flight. Anyway, the main thing na to enter there (US). Anything else is fine

I also submitted an expedited request since early last month and yet to hear from them. I don't know how much longer I have to wait, school is resuming next month.

Please the person that just got an approval date, was it via email notification or he just saw it when he logged in?
