Do not ride on your hubby’s luck… neither should he. He’s done Masters… let go PhD or Master-PhD…Abeg apply for F1
Why settle for crumbs when you can own the bakery ??

Hello bro,

Kindly advise, can I use my gf sister who's an American citizen as sponsor for my F1 Visa? What would I state as "her" relationship with me?

PS. She's willing to support me.

But you’re required to report to the school in order to be in status? Why dont you apply to the same cheaper school from here-Naija? You applied to only one school with shaky funding.. your case is very weak

Then keep that plan to yourself. All in all, try and get some funding to make visa application easier.. Alla the best.

You could… but gf tie is not strong. If u break up, funding is gone.
Being an American citizen does not increase your chances.. cos if she makes $60k and your tuition is $20k… she cant afford to sponsor u

But they recently posted a GA ad for Mechanical Engineering for the Fall 2023 term. Yeah.

Also, you can try Virginia tech..they love engineers. There, even though they listed the WES as a a criterion, people I know only just sent the one they did with the gpa calculator...

I just checked their website. It's a bit expensive, do they usually offer graduate assistantship?

Hi, please in what format did they send the GPA from the free calculator?

As a screenshot or they downloaded the mail WES sent to them and emailed it?

Like this??

Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 17 by PRYCE(m): 6:00pm On Feb 05, 2023
And please who has used IERF for evaluation?

They are cheaper and accept transcripts from your school through official school email as opposed to that ''Sealed envelope'' BS

Are they as magnanimous as WES with the final GPA??

Thank you.

However, can't I refer to her relationship with me as that of "aunt" while filling the form?

PS. she earns sufficiently enough, reason I'd prefer to use her as sponsor.

Either which way you want it, it is ok.

Hello everyone,

I have a question/ need advice:

I and my husband (newlywed) will like to travel to the states through student visa and the other one will be F2, my husband has masters degree already. Thinking he should do PhD or another masters, and I be F2. OR we should both be F1 holders, so I can also work. (Ps: My sister is also in the states)

What do you think is better please. I am open to ideas, advice and suggestions.

Thank you!
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 17 by chibertha(f): 8:36pm On Feb 05, 2023
Wrong information.
BigIyanga:

You’re more than likely not going to get approved. You applied to only 1 school and dont have funding. Good luck
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 17 by chibertha(f): 8:46pm On Feb 05, 2023

Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 17 by chibertha(f): 8:57pm On Feb 05, 2023
A lot of schools will accept you.
How do you find them?
Get a pen and note book and start searching on Google schools in each state.
This can help

Now, all three people (2- Virginia tech, 1, Binghamton) I know, did not do this directly with admissions, I must let you know. They wrote to profs, who accepted to take them under supervision and asked for their official transcripts. They gave excuses to the effect of our country wasting time and blah, but offered the WES calculator gpa, saying that they knew they were in good standing..and that was it. I believe it was the mail edition.

You caused your denial. Someone being a vice-President-elect has no single weight financially.

It's like vice-President-elect of Nigeria Bar Association, Lagos chapter. The person doesn't receive any salary. They are usually paid allowance.

And being "elect" means she's yet to take office. So, there's uncertainty.

You should state the business she does and how much she earns annually. Being a vice-President of an association cannot be her business.

And for the fact that you are married and still depend on your mother to sponsor you may raise a red flag.
