Hi guys☺️
I'm new to this forum and this is actually my first time commenting here, I have a question concerning berea college application, I am planning on applying this year, I have a waec GPA of 3.56 with an A, 4Bs, and 4Cs, and plan on taking the TOEFL test on or before October (deadline is November 30), so my question is, can I be accepted with a GPA of 3.56 (with the lowest GPA of accepted students at Berea college being 3.0, with a 3.54 average), or I should wait till next year and retake waec or take sat.

Thanks for replying in advance :-)

And also, the college meets the full financial need of all students admitted, so I don't need sat for funding.. thanks for replying tho☺️

Hello guys,

I just received my form I-20 2 days ago with fully funded Masters program with no deficit. I booked an appointment yesterday and requested for an emergency appointment, but I haven't heard any response from the Abuja embassy. Do you suggest I still wait for the embassy, or start fall 2021 class from Nigeria and join them in spring 2022, or defer the admission.

The resumption date is 23rd August.

Since your program is fully funded, you could start classes from Nigeria and then join in person class by January.
Congratulations!

Give it a shot and most importantly, keep a positive mindset.
Read in your other post you do not want to take the SAT. I do not think this is the wisest thing to do as a good SAT increases your chances with more universities in securing some amount of scholarship to help actualize your dreams.

Kudos to the gurus thanks for all that you do. Pls has anyone applied to University of New Orleans? I will like to know what are my chances of securing MSC in Computer Science with scholarship and i will like to know about my chances of securing the Visa.
Please i will appreciate any response. Thank you bosses.

Bro, I am happy for you. Your story gave me a lot of inspiration to always remain steadfast in any endeavor.

I guess the previous VO kept rejecting the application due to home ties: no wife, no kids. But the last VO really was swayed by the current job at a Federal university.

All the best, bro. Remain steadfast both in study and in faith. God has done it for you.
So is it advisable to fill in married(even though single) when submitting applications for PhD?

It would reflect as soon as they get it (you can track your application on their mobile app). And they would send you a mail telling you that they have received your documents and if they are complete or not.
Thank you

Visa approved at the Abj embassy. (7:30 am appointment) EA approved on 2nd August after waiting almost a month.
COA: $29,000
Funding: nil
SOA: $70,000
Sponsor: Uncle (Different surnames)

I was attended to by a white male VO. There were two windows active with VOs this morning. One male and one female.

The guy had denied about 7 applicants right before it got to my turn.

VO: Good morning. Pass me your I-20 and your passport please.
Me: (I obliged)
VO: (types for what seemed like 30 secs) First time? Have you traveled to the US before?
Me: No.
VO: Okay, first time. And who'll be paying for your studies?
Me: My uncle.
VO: What does your uncle do?
Me: He's a real estate developer and property management consultant.
VO: Oh, wow. Do you have his bank statements?
Me: Yes (I passed them to him and he perused through it carefully)
VO: What do you do?
Me: I'm a Hydrogeologist. (I didn't bother telling him where and for how long I have been working. He was fixed on his screen, typing)
VO:What did you study for your undergraduate degree?
Me: Geology.
VO: Do you have any family in the US?
Me: No. (while maintaining steady eye contact)
VO: So what are your plans after your studies?
Me: I will come back and work as a consultant to my state's water corporation. I wish to help tackle water sustainability issues and other critical problems affecting quality of groundwater here in Nigeria.
VO: (types for what seemed like an eternity)
Okay, I'll be approving your visa. Pick up your passport from your designated collection centre. It might take a week because of COVID-19 rules... I believed this was what he said, that deafness that comes with this paper is not a myth at all grin



I was fighting to contain my excitement.That VO was on a denial streak and God came through for me. Thank you, Jesus. I had to bone up so the hustlers no go tax me. Lol. One of the security who saw my white paper said I should go do Thanksgiving, that I was the 1st approval all morning after back to back denials.
I'd like to point out that confidence is key. This is my second application. I was denied 2 years ago. I came back better, well prepared and more confident. If you were denied, just re-strategize and come back with a stronger application.


PS: Please, who's in Bowling Green State University, let's link up.
