Hi

Please I have a loan currently running and I want to know if this is a challenge for me if I get a fully funded scholarship ahead of Fall 2024.

Do I clear the outstanding loan balance but credit report is good as I have never missed my repayment.

BETHANY2024:
Good afternoon Forum members,

Please, if you see dates for December 2023 open for Student interview slots in US Consulate Lagos and US Embassy Abuja, please we will appreciate you let members here know so we can book.

My checking for dates still saying ''no appointments available'' at US Consulate Lagos and US Embassy Abuja.

I was refused student visa in July 31, 2023 and have got an updated I-20 from another school for the Spring January 2024 intake and have paid my new visa fee trying to get an appointment.

Thanks, and will appreciate your reply.
Bethy

This sounds like self-imposed mental toll you put on yourself. Why dont you expand your options? If schools you would love to be admitted to, dont accept your application, find a lot of other schools… las las employers dont really care about ur school once you can do the job.

@ AJOSELF...

Check Miami University. Purdue University, University of North Dakota, UC Michigan , Boston University ...etc Google Public Research Universities in the USA and pick them one by one by writing to their International Admissions office with your enquiries. They will give you appropriate answers ok ? By the time you write like 15 schools you should see your match . Nobody can do magic , we all know what we knows through constant Research and experience. Don't Give Up .

Naija loan or US student loan?

Naija loan

BigIyanga:


NL could have given you better info than your agent.. We ve have said here 1000 times… avoid agents if you’re going for F1/F2, but una no dey listen. Your paid agent messed you up… when you could have gotten some free help/info from NL members here.

You need to go pay your sevis fee. Who paid the MRV fee for you? If you did, you should have a GT emailed confirmation… if your agent did…. Ask him or her to reprint confirmation email from GTB.

Greetings BigIyanga, please what is the easiest and safest way to pay for sevis fee so as not to end up with stories 🤲🏽

NewBoyKhashoggi:


Hey !

Cool down . I will suggest you do the following . 1. Go back to GTB and reverify your MRV receipt by telling a good listener (banker all that happened ) because the VO who interviewed you might forgot to do some necessary things by just flinging your MRV somewhere .

2. Try and reverify your SEVIS fee payment online and make sure that the payment still reflect PAID online .

3. Your CGI page was locked (not permanently though ) because they thinks you want to outsmart the embassy by not following the necessary procedure of paying the MUST paid SEVIS fee ( I understand it's a mistake but embassy will see it as a fraud ).


4. After reconfirming your MRV receipt and SEVIS payment then put your whole information in one side where you will be able to view it and call the CGI customers and explain the while scenario. They will give you guidelines and rectify it. Don't email . Call them from Monday to Friday working hours. Do not panic and don't give up .

Sorry I wasn't aware that you got the admission from a uni with a rock-solid scholarship.. I thought you were going straight to a community college.🙌🏿
Does your 1-20 say associate or bs?
Is this like pre-nursing/pre-pharmacy kinda of admission?

kristian98:

zieraw2005:
Hi guys,
Please how do I pay my sevis fee from Nigeria.

I was able to pay visa fee via gtbank online and now I have gone to so many banks, they have constantly maintained that they only receive western union but can't processed western union for my sevis.

Kindly help guys.

BigIyanga:

Easiest way is to ask a friend/relative in the US to pay for you while you reimburse them in Naira.

OR
You can explore other options suggested by NL members.

Victor6677889:
Greetings everyone… please I have a question gurus in the house.

Can I apply for emergency request for date without paying for sevis fee .

Can I pay after I have secured an emergency appointment?

Please 🙏🏾
