I pity anyone that take this advice. You think you're only one that has competitive profile. Alot of people are competing with your prof's inbox.
Even my GC do tell me to remind them at so so time for more update about internal happenings.
Don't just over do it

Admissions is different from funding. Or are you assuming everyone here is a prospective PhD student? You can't bomb admissions to give you a decision because indeed, it can go southwards. It does go southwards.

It's like when you try to press these schools to tell you, the outcome of your application, they send you love letter

Shebi I told you before, you were saying one thing one thing...ntoin..and ndo

I checked google already. But the smart thing to do is not to rely on Google alone.

Google will surely and smartly answer 80% of your questions. Good luck

It's actually very helpful to have a good rapport with your Graduate Coordinator, as it can be very helpful in securing funding.

Abeg, I wanted to have closure. I almost knew nothing will come out from that school because they only admit PhD students when a Professor agrees to be their advisor and all the professors I contacted, either did not respond or told me they are not taking PhD students. They also do not admit PhD students without TA/RA and it is the professors that appoint TA and RA. It was among my free schools, na money wey I use send official GRE scores nai just pain me.

Pele.

Hope you got one you are holding for the meantime?

You’ll have to explain the gap in your yr.. like why pursuing pol science at 26 as ur 1st degree when most people finish university in Naija b4 24?
How is US political science more superior to Naija pol science?

Hi great people,

Please help me with the WhatsApp link to check for f1 visa dates in Abuja.

I’d like to join the Abuja group too. I have trying to secure an interview date Abuja for a while. I’d appreciate it if the link can be posted.

Good afternoon house,
I want to ask, if I don’t have a deficit’ on my I-20, do I need to go along with my bank statement for my visa interview? I’ve a full tuition scholarship and I used a student loan to cover the cost of attendance. So I’ve no deficits

In that case use this

I never asked for list of all the universities and colleges in the US. I filtered my request. All the same thank you.

Thank You. I spent several weeks searching for conference in my field that I can use as means to apply for the US B1 visa. I couldn't get what I precisely need from Google. But fortunately someone sent me a link that fit and I used the conference to apply from Norway here. I got the B1/B2 visa of 5years now.

There is google and there is networking.

This your smart response energy could have been channeled into University of Google. BI/B2 is soo different from
f1/F2… the fact that you had no success with google during your B1 does not mean that you would face the same problem with F1/F2.

How about you take your time and search on NL about this same topic.

You still have to do the work of reseaching and Googling… You have to reach out the universities to determine your eligibility for full funded scholarship… it’s hard for folks to tell without knowing your unique qualifications, skills and circumstances.

Please recently while checking the dates on the website they are asking me to change password?
What do you think please, should I go ahead?

Go with your loan and bank docs…Too many docs are good for you before a VO.

Since you don't have a deficit, why do you need loan

Okay thank you. Noted.

Hello house, please all advice will be welcome thank you in advance.

I will be having my court wedding ending of next month. But my wife want to apply for admission now. Please hope this won’t be an issue when applying for F1 and F2 visa as I’m the F2 applicant.

And also is it advisable she use the name on her first degree for the application or my own surname she will be using after the court wedding.

Thank you In advanced to you all.
