We both know it wasn’t this bad. The WhatsApp group was a solution. I don’t believe it is a problem. How else do you want people to do it?

yes to greedy people making money out of it.

Is the whatsapp group run by American embassy? Of course not, they are agents turning appointment booking to an opportunity to make money.

If it wasn't for money why was it not kept open here?

How else do i want people to do it? The same way people were doing it before whatsapp group

How’s this even possible?

Nobody is making money from group search dates. Only lazy people pay agents ( who still have to join these groups and look for dates on their behalf) to help them with that and there’s nothing anyone can do about this set of people. They are wired that way.

You can try doing it. Identify people who want to search for dates, allocate time to each person, and when dates are released, how do we know? Do we keep refreshing this page? WhatsApp is an instant messaging app. If I see a date, how do I quickly update the thread?

Anyhow, he nr concern me. Do as you see fit.

You can google samples of SOP in Engineering. Use it as a template. Explain why you want to pursue graduate education, why that problem, why the school and what you hope to get after you finish the program.

Side now, hope you know that MTU hardly fund students ? Not even PhD students.

Strange that this very active thread has suddenly got quiet since this issue of fraud was brought here. It goes to show how terrible some Nigerians are.

No doubt about it, the thread has lost substance over time, I try to answer as much questions as I can, if I can. But people barely come back to post transcripts or their experiences which can as well help others. So it's tiring, it's more like a place where people just seek but don't want to give back.

I for sure never supported the WhatsApp group link posting on here. It was bound to defer the focus of this thread. Moving forward, I think you should ban those who post links here.

Hello,

To pay for your SEVIS fee, kindly visit fmjfee.com to create a payment coupon (receipt). You'll need some details from your I-20 to such as sevis id, school code etc to complete the registration. When done, you'll need someone in the US to help you make the payment by simply sending the coupon to him/her.

All the best

Confidence05:



Thank you very much for your prompt response. Do you mean the SEVIS ID and Program Number on the DS-2019 form?

Please if you're gonna ban WhatsApp groups, how does one go about date search? Because really it's sad that with the situation in the country that you'll exploit someone due to your greediness, I was gonna pay an agent to get a date for nov/dec for interview, cause my mom hope is me getting there, and mind you I'm still awaiting passport which has been in production for 8 weeks now since I did capturing and already have admission to the school for spring session, do you see how many months remain until then, it will be the Grace Of God, if I can meet up. But the never say never attitude is imbibed and please let's not abstain from helping each other, please � no matter what he who does good here, will surely be repaid, same as the person who does bad. We will all get to our destination, Mafo my people

If you want to get a date then do what those agents are doing…spend time on that website searching and refreshing until you get lucky, that is what they do, no special tools or insider knowledge.

WhatsApp group has killed this thread and many others, non will be allowed here. People create WhatsApp group for anything now not just date searching .
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 17 by Boyco: 10:36am On Oct 13, 2022
No agent can magically create date, them too spend time on the site waiting for available dates to show up...i remember when i needed a date and i almost paid 150k to one agency, i was lucky enough to get sense and checked dates for myself till i got a closer date before my program resumption next year summer. I repeat, agents cant manufacture dates. They do what everybody else is doing, which is checking the sites constantly and get paid for it.

I hope you understand that this would only make things worst? If I can’t get a visa date search group here and people don’t post transcripts here, why would I come here at all when I can be proactive and help myself by joining any of the groups?

A friend of mine is in a situation, needs profound advise.

He got accepted into Uni of A and Uni of B for Fall 2022. Uni of A offered him some form of scholarship, so he decided to pay Sevis fee using the I-20 issued by Uni of A. He couldn't secure a Visa interview date at the embassy and decided to defer his admissions to Spring 2023. He got a date for visa interview for the Spring 2023 resumption (Visa interview date - November 2022). Uni of A is taking forever to issue him another I-20. He wants to switch to Uni of B for several reasons, which include the fact that he is being offered a scholarship that matches what Uni of A previously offered. Uni of B is his preferred choice was only sticking to A cos of scholarship offered.
Long and short, he wants to switch schools but already paid Sevis fee with the I-20 issued from the old school of choice. I know it is possible to transfer sevis upon resumption. Is it possible to transfer Sevis before visa interview or school resumption?
If this is possible, how can he go about it?

Thank you

It will not. If you don't want to come here because whatsapp group is not allowed then so be it.

Hello Everyone,

I used to be a regular Nairalander but moved to the US to do an MBA. (Moshom gave me tips for US visa interview, Sevis fee was from NL, even joined groups to check date lol, so basically paying it forward)

Just here to share information/tips if you are applying to an MBA program in the US. Most Nigerians here got 100% or 75% scholarship as long as you do well in GRE/GMAT. 650+/320 puts you in a good spot

You can ask any info and I'd share. Kindly tag me.

Ciao

Yes, I agree with you. They have used the whatsapp to hijacked and stole people's mind.
Mr Justwise, I wonder why this so.
Can we say the rate at which people japa or the desperation too Is high? Because, Following the links back, people had been moving out before this period.
But I'll support your saying that they are ingrate people...

Hi NLs,
A quick question to you all as regards sponsorship.

1) Can someone working with the government (LASG) and also have a good business (registered, business account, and tax) fund himself towards his Masters program in the USA?

2) which source of income is preferable to opt for when applying for schools and visa appointment?

I'm anticipating your response and suggestions.

Thank you.
