Location: Lagos Embassy
School: University of Cincinnati
Funding: N21,000 +
Deficit: N23,000
Sponsor: Uncle
Department: Aerospace Engr

My initial fears
- Brother in the US
- Source of funding is Uncle not Parent
- Not married
- No travel history



I interviewed with the loudest VO there. I saw that guy reject so many people and the fact that his voice is loud did not help. Man, I was so scared, I wanted to shit my pants. Anyways...

VO: Good morning. Pass me your passport and your i-20
Me: Good morning, sir.

VO: Tell me about your program and your plans.
Me: I am going to the University of Cincinnati for my Masters's degree in Aerospace engineering and Engineering Mechanics. My research area is going to be on Advanced combustion methods and alternative fuels. This basically looks into unconventional modes of combustion that increase the efficiency of gas turbines and also reduces the emission of certain toxic fumes. Since I currently work with steam and gas turbines in the Nigerian Power Sector, I am aware of the challenges that plague gas turbines and I hope my master's degree will equip me with enough knowledge to at least solve some of these challenges. (I might have mentioned the application of Gas Turbines in the Power Sector too.)

VO types and types and types. He didn't even make eye contact with me.

VO : Which family member is funding the rest of your studies. (My i-20 has "Family member" as a source of funds)
Me : My Uncle, my dad's brother.

VO : And what does he do?
Me : He's a director at xxxxx and he owns some property in xxxx which he rents out for both residential and commercial purposes.

I thought he was going to ask for SOA, but nope, Jesu mi o je.
Na so baba separate my i-20 from my passport. OMO, as I see say he separate am, I burst smile .

VO: I will be approving your visa. Make sure you take your i-20 with you to POE. Yada yada yada... I no even hear again. I just dey smile like idiot.
Me: Thank you.

VO: Also make sure you get some jackets because Cincinnati gets cold during the winter.
Me: * for my mind "Oga, no worry about that one, I go pack plenty jacket"


Tips:

1. Go with all required documents and supporting documents. Don't pay attention to those photocopying street guys, they will confuse you with different document names and then ask you to print with N2000 per copy. Complete your documents at home and stay focused. No lose guard.

2. Be confident. I know, I know. It is easier said than done, but it is necessary. That place is designed to stress you. You will be hearing people get rejected. You will see people freeze out of fear, but do not let it throw you off. Don't be tempted to change your answer last minute.

Imagine, the first thing I heard when I entered the hall was someone's rejection. In fact, I saw someone froze in front of the VO. He couldn't speak properly, his voice was quivering, and I know it wasn't for lack of preparation but fear. O' boy, fear hook me for like the first 5 mins, but I had to just calm down. Start to sing in your head if it will help you calm down; it helped me calm down sha.

3. Prep like your life depends on it. I had like 15 mock interviews in the space of two months, no joke. Be able to answer certain questions in your sleep. Especially questions about your research area and its link to your career plans IN NIGERIA.

4. Of course, if you believe in any form of deity, pray to it. I can't deny the place of grace in my experience.
Anyway, I wish everyone good luck.

Hearty Congratulations

When I got here, a lady in the same city drove to the airport to pick me up. She found me on this thread to assist her hubby in preparing for his visa, after 2 previous denial. We got in touch and he got his visa. When I moved in, she came to pick me, free of charge, drove me around and all. Today, we are good friends. I have linked people to meet family friends, other students that connect with me from here that are in the U.S. The network is growing big--all because I extended the idea to connect with other people. You see, this is how life works, but unfortunately, you have refused to open your mind and learn from people you have differences with. And so, every opinion and views that don't align with yours is wrong. When will you grow your small mind?

Also, I know your pain! Remember I tell people to leave my DM alone. I never hide it that I work part-time as a study-abroad consultant and give advise and counsel? It doesn't make me a bad person! If you come to my DM to ask me to do for you what you couldn't do by yourself for one reason or the other, I reserve the right to ask anyone to pay for my time and efforts. I have written so many instructions here on how to prepare for interview, how to create a good transcript, how to get admission and contact department for funding--far more than your pathetic mind ever conceived. I do it so that people would not be coming to my DM for questions that take time to answer--time I don't really have! Yet people still troop to my DM for assistance, to edit transcript and guide them. We all see result and I have never rob or scam anyone. There is no where on earth that a person becomes a criminal for placing financial value on their time and knowledge. If you don't do it, it doesn't mean other people doing it are bad people.

It is my time--my life--and I can ask anyone to pay me for it if I feel so. I have equally helped many people for free, even pay application fees and edit SOP, etc. How earth does that make me a criminal or a bad person that you are fast to attack? Meanwhile, I have helped far more people with my time and resources for free than you will ever do if you are to live for 200 years. That is despite my busy schedule! Get that into your block head and leave me alone!

You always see things with your rigid mind, and assume everyone else must be wrong if they can't see things and do things the way you see or do them.

EducationUSA has membership fee, and it has not become a satanic organization for charging people to access their services or support. You are just an ignorant person.

An agent that charges 50,000 naira for holding mock and editing prospective clients transcript. Is that not a wicked heart? Just drop the facts that you claimed to be helping people freely and announce to us that you’re officially an agent and we will accept that from you but sidelining prospective students that can have access to the info’s here freely but through your manipulations you decided they need to be paying for your charges was totally wrong

TWoods:


lol a leopard doesn't change his spots. He is basically using this forum as a business recruiting enterprise. Using the unsuspecting and desperate to make money to fund his own education.

He can’t deny the facts that he doesn’t charge money at the exorbitant rate. So where is the help he’s rendering for Godsake ?

That is why I have told him to tell me the school he Dey in USA but refused and run away

fairheart:


Na the white lady you trick into marrying you that you'd later divorce I pity. God is my witness, our ideals are not the same!
The distance is too much. You do not measure up at all.

Which school are you sir ? I know you’re online now and respond to me but I am 100% sure you will NEVER tell us where you are schooling rather than you are an agent using nairaland as a conduit pipe for your dirty, immoral and fraudulent activities.

TWoods:


If anyone has been coming online to feel like a "god", it is you and those who think you have the answer to everyone's problems... offering to "link them up", boasting about who you've put up in some Nigerian home for the summer bla bla bla... all because you got lucky with a US F1 visa. Oh wait... have you responded to what school you are yet? You dodged that question so hard the last time... What are you charging for mock interviews lately? What a fraud.

He dare not to tell us where he’s schooling as he is not in school . I know him sir and let us leave him to his stories, bants and rhetorics.

Let him continue to charge people and hide under the circumstances of helping them. Obviously, he is a bad ambassador!!!!

JavanElsevier41:
Having waited for a response from Lagos embassy with no response. I decided to switch to Abuja. I applied just yesterday and I got a date today. August 18. My school resumes September 1st so I still have sometime. Although I'm still gonna try my luck with EA for Abuja.
Actually I got a lady at the embassy to help me fast track it.

.please how did you change to Abuja

Ah! Check the last time I commented here. I have over 5 messages I have not responded to in weeks. Some I ignore. Why not let God judge me if I am predator? Why do you speak for Him? I thought you said you are a Christian? And you still have to go this length? Whatever a man does will follow him. If I have done bad, it will follow me; If I have done good by being here, it will follow me. No man will escape the consequences of their evil or goodness. If truly I am here to take advantage of people and not to help, God will judge me.

My heart is clean. I am an happy and free man. Over to you the Judge of Nairaland! I rest!

Man, just try and change your illegal ways of life and STOP extorting people irrationally. Period

Juice2Pac:

Lol bad guy, he married white woman to get Green Card. And you are always attacking people saying it’s obvious that they are not going to U.S to study now see yourself now, that’s what I was trying to say if you talk too much, you say stuffs you not supposed to say, see how you open your yansh now. Now who japa to U.S to settle down now if not you….. Married white woman in just 3 years, that was fast. You dey part of those wey dey make visa difficult sometimes. smh

Young man you better go and get your visa approval on time before the date fill up rather than you engaged in what doesn’t matter to you

To be honest funding will be difficult, but try

May I ask why you think funding will be difficult for this person?

He has above 300 in GRE, undergraduate gp is good too.
People have gotten funding with way less, so please do not discourage him/her.

Please can someone help me with dates for appointment, do we still have dates in Abuja for 2021. Or what date can one get in Lagos now. Thanks for the Swift response.

psychologyshuby:
You are a very heartless person... what gives you the right to talk to him in such manner?? Just because he was bold enough to post that he has been denied several times?? If you come for people harshly you will get 10 folds of it.

Your opinion doesn't count. Your lies and blackmailing will not stop me. Have you seen where a weakling grass stops an elephant? No! Your pursuit of bringing me down here will bring you misfortune! So stop it! You can call me anything you want! What is important is that I know I have not done anyone any wrong! I know deep down that I have helped several Nairalanders for free, without kobo! Stupid people only talk about what they don't like in other people, not what is good in them and the good they have done for others!

I never force anyone to pay me. I always tell people who reach out to me I have no time! Nobody has been forced at gun point. If someone is offering saying they want to be paid for their time and you cannot afford it, leave them alone and get your information and help elsewhere. FAIRHEART IS NOT THE ONLY PERSON HERE! My antagonists are here too; contact them for help. They are the help those who needed assistance needs.

There is no rule that if anyone ask for your time and resources you must give it for free; that others are doing it doesn't make them a bad person.

Y'all can say whatever you want; I don't give a shit. Isn't that beautiful?
It is funny how those who are doing less than you are the ones that attack you.

STOP extorting people that is what I am telling you and nothing more rather than you portray yourself as a saint by claiming you are helping them pro-Bono.

Nigeria is hard man, help them if you can and don’t charge them 50,000 naira for editing transcript and holding mock interviews. Take care and Rest well !!

Lastly, I am still expecting your response to know where you are schooling if at all you are in school rather than nairaland agents as you’ve ignored that part but can write a big grammar

If they combine you and your entire family, they are still not going to be as intelligent and bright as I am! Whether you know my school or not is of no use to you. Go use your time to do something to improve your mind, because academically, you'll never match my level. You will never go beyond the retarded level you are.

Are you not ashamed that all your time on here has been used to trolled me? Come on! There are books to read, people to meet, personal goals to pursue and attain. Use your time for that, so that your children and family can be proud of you!

You are still not getting the point. Are you stupid or what? Nobody has been forced! If you need a glasses and the store says it is $2 and you are looking for it for free, you simply move on! In other word, please help people do what you claim I grossly charge them for.

Stay here to help with answers to questions.
Encourage them to send their transcripts to you.
Do personal and group mock for them.
When they beg you with heaven and earth because they have worry, stay on the phone for several minutes to hear their concerns.
Encourage them; be your brother's keepers (since that is not what I am doing).
Do these and touch lives. You have said I am not doing these, please do for these people what you expected me to do for them for free.
Do these and let peace reign.

I am disabling my account and I need you to take my place. If you don't, if you refuse to give your time and what you know, may you receive dishonor in the place of honor in your efforts. Ase! But if you do these for them, free of charge, may heaven and earth bless you. Ase!
