“ This might be my last opportunity “

In what context?

Kindly get a sponsor, to act as your uncle. Just to get your i20 and act up towards your visa application.

No time. God will not kill ‘our popular uncles’ for Us.

Quick Story:
One of our guy here got denied last week, within days he got a new date and went back, good news? He got approval today. Yeah; same no profile; not funded.

So, just to tell you that got a waiver; that you don’t have any excuse. There’s always opportunities when you get there, as you school already assure you.

Package yourself till you get The White Paper. This is USA path; You can do it!!!!!!!!

Good luck Champ!


Good day chief. please do you mean someone who isn't your biological uncle can claim to be an uncle and stand as a sponsor?

for instance, can a close family friend with a different surname stand as my sponsor?

Yes, your uncle's surname don't necessarily have to be the same with yours (it could be from maternal side). You can provide a letter of him attesting to your relationship with him and his consent to sponsor you

Whose details would be on the western union sender form? Mine or the person helping out? Thank you.
murtalaa:


I am at this stage too. You cannot make SEVIS payment in Nigeria. If you are from Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya Cameroun and Gambia then you cannot make debit of credit card payment. Your only option is Western Union. Here is how you will proceed:

Click of "Continue to Make Payment"
You will be asked provide further information and a payment coupon will be generated in pdf. If you have anyone in US, send them the pdf to help you make the payment and you can either repay them in naira or by a deposit to their domiciliary account.

NB: nice to hear dates are available now

Tinafusty:

I don't know where u pipo got this your six months from, have u not read of people that got denied in Dec and went for another interview by January or February and got their visa approved?

Madam calm down, do not mislead applicants.

I think you didn't read up the previous quotes. Where have you read on the US Visa site that immediately after you got denied you are also eligible to put in for regular appointment and not previously refused?

Those that went to the embassy in quick succession would have been lucky to see new dates through the previously rejected option even after been recently rejected which was quite normal during the pre-covid era.

The moment you twist things up in this stage, the VO is obliged to reject you for this reason on your interview day.

I’m using a combination of my mum and Mpower loan as my sponsors.
During the interview do I have to emphasize what my mum does cos I’m just wondering if after emphasizing it’ll seem a lie cos if she’s really ‘comfortable’ then I shouldn’t have any need to take a loan in addition.
I hope someone understands my question and can advise me.
I'm also using mpower loan and my mother as a sponsor, let's connect
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 16 by chibertha(f): 7:53pm On May 31, 2022
yes you can but ensure the gap between both schools is not more than a semester.
Laids:
Good evening house,

A friend of mine needs an urgent advice. Is it possible to use a school to get visa and go to another one on getting to US? both schools have different resumption dates and they're also in different states.

Your response will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Nozino:




Don’t mention.

I doubt if most master’s will accept a 2.4/5.0 scale for Msc. If you do have work experience, you can email the graduate coordinator and they may make an exception for you. It isn’t uncommon for people with low gpa and extensive work experience to get into Masters program in the US. I would also take the GRE/GMAT and apply to HBCUs if I were you .


If you don’t have work experience, you fit runs am. As long as you’ve graduated for some time. In this US waka, you have sell/hype yourself.


Get good references too. In fact, write your own reference and give to your references to upload

GAs waive tuition and pay 16k stipend

"Probability to get assistantship", then yes I will say you should find a sponsor and get your i-20 then proceed with your interview. You can then tell the VO, the GA wants you to be present on campus before they approve your funding. "Probability of getting on campus job", I honestly don't know how you will make $40k to pay your tuition and also go to school so I'll not advise you to bank on that. Infact, I don't think it's possible sef.

Best of luck

This, being my last opportunity means Fall 2022 applications are closing already. I have 8 other admissions with no funding.

Thank you for the motivation. God bless you

Have you reached out to these schools concerning funding?? If not, try to ask about the requirements for funding.
