Good day every one.
Please I need assistance, My Wes Evaluation has been completed since 7 June 2023 but I am yet to receive a copy and I reached out to Wes and I was assured it was sent through standard delivery to my location but I havenât gotten any file. Another one was sent on the 14th of august but still not received it. How do I trace it since standard delivery does not have any tracking information. |

Please guys I need an honest answer. My school website have been down for like a month now and my Recommenders can't even acess their institutional mail. They confirmed it has been happening and they often send with their personal email ( gmail, yahoo etc). Note, no one knows how soon this will end.
Now my question is, if they write with their personal email will it affect my chances of being admitted and being considered for funding too? Remember, they are always ready to defend when being contacted. Have you tried contacting the institutions you are planning to attend and get them to advise if they are willing to take emails from those channels? |

I think you should work on why you chose the school. While the school is rated among the best, that was the only thing you said about choosing the school. In addition, your sponsor's finances does not necessarily support the cost of your program. He earns less than $1000 monthly and he needs should $17000 per year which is at least about 1.5 times his gross income if he decides not to spend a dime out of it. Next time, I will encourage you mention that and also include his earnings from his business. That way, it justifies his ability to sponsor you without you either resorting to working or depending on public funds. 2 Likes |

Finance was the main problem here. Your COA should not take more than 3months of your sponsors annual income (seeing as you donât have funding from the school). Again, What is his area of specialization - is he a cardiologist, ophthalmologist? Years of practice? Summary of the annual turnover from selling of the medical equipment? You could expatiate on that too, these little details make your story compelling. Your answers were too straightforward. You might also wanna add other sources of income like landed properties, you could also include your business or job stating how much youâve saved so far. For instance: (....in addition to all these I have personal funds of about 5 million in savings having worked in XYZ establishment as a.... for over a period of XYZ years). Thereâs no rule that states only your husband must be the sponsor. Better still If you can get funding from the school, then this case is already an easy one seeing as you already have hometies in the person of your husband. Best of luck. 3 Likes |

Next time include that you also have savings of x amount that you have saved up from working for X number years , that way it shows that na you want this masters and you have been saving towards it cos its your goal to move ahead and get better work oppurtunities and good salary when u return to Nigeria.

Your finances and your answer about your school killed your 1st attempt. Your responses were undergrad-grade. N600k is like $700⌠so if he saved half his income @$350, it would take him 48mons =4yrs to save. You have to do a better job of x-raying your finances. Good luck 1 Like |

Thanks for your response. I am not sure there is a number of times you can reapply for a F-1 visa. However, if it is to reschedule, I think in Nigeria, they only allow twice after which you forfeit your application fund. |
