What will he end up doing? Than to study there, I mean do his undergraduate there and after that, he can further more if he want to do his Masters. And by doing that, he will also be working. Except for the language barrier. And there are some people I mean Nigerians that are also there, and they are okay. And after his studies he can relocate. Abi what else?

And moreover, am just suggesting.

Or do you also have an idea of what he will end up doing in US?
You are not God nah.

8. CONSULAR: Why Do You Need this Masters or What Will this degree do for you?

ME: Working with companies in the past, I realize the importance of Big Data Analysis. And this Masters Program will help me advance from being a data analyst to becoming a data specialist, equipping me with advanced and sophisticated skills and methods using more advanced tools used in processing Big Data.
Which in turn will make me competent and valuable in my field as a data specialist and as a consultant and i will be returning to Nigeria to take up a new position proposed by the company I work for, as their Data Specialist, and eventually over the years as I build in my career as my own personal goal, I’ll be setting up a Data Consultancy firm to serve clients and prospective customers especially now that there's significant boom in the IT/Financial technology sector.

11. CONSULAR: What’s this course about?

ME: The program is Data Science, concerned with the collection, screening, storing and presenting of data. Now, when we talk data, we mean Big Data from companies like MTN, Nigerian Stock Exchange, Facebook and the likes, which will help them in decision making for the now and future. Data is money, and companies that have Big Data without good analysis is losing big-time in the money market. These type of data is how Facebook is able to monitor users online behavior, and come up with deciding on what business to propose to their users and display in their screens. Most of these comes in form of ads.

And I will be offering courses like software engineering, operating systems, computer architecture, technology and networking, analysis of algorithm, among others.

12. CONSULAR: Can you not continue your education in your country?

ME: No, it'll be somewhat difficult, as that will not make me competent.
Reason is, education and academic calendar in Nigeria is either always interrupted or not well delivered.
I'll prefer to be exposed to a global standard, be competent, bring that training and idea back here and do better for myself.

Hello everyone,
Please how likely is it that you’ll be able to get EA if you had a visa denial in August. It says on the website that EA can be requested 60 days to your program start date and if you haven’t been been denied a visa in the last 6 months.
I want to know if I should put my mind on January or just wait until Fall 2022.

chaiks:
hi.
What if the referee fail to submit a reference by the October 22 deadline?

kunlevski003:
Your referees can submit later. Just ensure you submit the application before the deadline. In fact, you can add and remove and send reminders to referees after submitting your application.

Valolisa147:

Laworldz:
God bless you for saying the truth. It’s like people enjoy being lied to. Going for an undergrad at that age is extremely hard getting the visa. If he has money, he can go to UK or EU and find his way to where he wants from there. That’s an easier route. If it’s a masters degree for that age, better chance.
But all these ones like people feeding their emotions.
