"Me: yes I'm going for my MBA in xyz cus I was given promotion as Head of Operation that'll be leading my team on a new project but I need an Intl degree in project mgt before I could assume my new position."

I think the above fetched you the denial. You claimed that you were promoted to a job you are not qualified for. After the promotion to the Head of operations, you now want to go to the US for 1-2 years to acquire the qualification necessary for the job. Haba...how nau?

Typically, people go on to acquire additional skills in preparation for a higher position. But in your case, it is the reverse. So you need to fix that part.

All the best.

Me: yes I'm going for my MBA in xyz cus I was given promotion as Head of Operation that'll be leading my team on a new project but I need an Intl degree in project mgt before I could assume my new position

VO: who's going to pay for this

Me: my husband, he's a medical doctor and own a hospital here in Lagos with a staff strength of 28

VO: what do you do

Me: I work at Xyz as a risk analyst (didn't talk further cus she wasn't paying attention)

VO: are you married

Me: yes

Which information are you trying to change. If it's from ds160, you can reapply for the ds160 and update the info on the CGI website.
Check their FAQ and see.

Pls I have been looking for dates of May or June for Abuja and I am yet to find.

Can you help out or suggest anyways j can get?

I earlier chose a date in October for Abuja with the hope to get an earlier date for May or June cos my admission is for Fall 2023 but till now I am unable to get a may or June date so I can reschedule.
Or do ih have tdd o change to Lagos? And if so, how do I do that change cos I heard there has been May and June dates for Lagos

there is no trick to getting early dates all you have to do is join a date search group for the embassy you are going to that updates regularly . So once slots are open you can sharply log and pick a date and schedule the time. p.s the slots released earlier today were mostly first timer applicants. and a few prev denied managed to some slots.

You are not writing an exam, you are only sending your transcript to them to evaluate it for you. I paid $258 for evaluation in October last year

What can be done? Hope there won't be an issue ?

please I need your honest opinion and corrections on this 🙏

Hi, I feel like you could rephrased your answers a little better. 1st, does a promotion really hinge on the probability of you getting an international degree? I don’t think so and probably VO can call BS on that. I know you probably prepared your speech on home ties or why you wanna study in the us as against Nigeria, but I believe you were to quick to answer without even being asked. My take will be:

1- simply answer VO questions, and not questions you are not asked. It’s okay to expand but stay on the same path.

2- Rephrase your punch line of your promotion needing an international degree, I smell BS on that.

3- Head of operation to manager a new project? So the project will be on pause for two years while you study and come back to continue?

4- something along the lines of: I am the Head of Operations in xyz, a people leader role that will highlight my technical skills especially in project management, and building/executing project roadmaps, I intend studying abc in xyc to gain technical skills and hands on experience (add your own line and how it transfer to your work)

5- you have two careers? you mention two careers in your transcript

6- lastly your can scarp the staff strength path of your husband medical practice.

Just my two cent.

Thanks,
