Have you tried checking the US embassy website?

"Hello, I'm seeking guidance. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Educational Management Economics (Second Class Upper), a Master's degree in Economics Education (4.38/5.0), and a Ph.D. in Economics Education (4.51/5.0, Faculty Best Student). I have 10 publications in education and five conference certificates, plus two international workshops and trainings. Currently single, I've applied for a Doctor of Education and Ph.D. in Educational Leadership at universities in the USA. All the schools I applied to waived English proficiency and GRE requirements. What are my chances of securing admission, assistantship, and scholarship?

Additionally, will being single and holding a Ph.D. in Economics Education (different from my desired Educational Leadership program) impact my visa interview?"

DanteSilva:
Makes a lot more sense... I appreciate you

Try to have a story on that you do now and how your degree will help move the company to where you anticipate. That way, it makes your conversation smooth and helps you answer coherently no matter what the visa officer asks.

Pls I have a question
I was denied last week.
School was lamar university, deficit 19500.

Now I got admitted to Georgia State University with graduate assistantship (tuition waiver and 6k stipend)

Can I reapply again.? Is it a red flag that I changed school?

Please May I know how you went about the tuition waiver and stipends? Every efforts to get that has proven abortive. Thank you for your prompt response

Yes, but I do not quite clear on the right steps I should take to apply for visa without any hassle. I have been seeing series of complaints in this space. I need a proper guidance on how I can apply for a visa and get an appointment.l with the vo. Thank you.

Will you be declaring that you already have a PhD during your application? Why don’t you find a PostDoc position in the US? Why another PhD? You have a very good profile between.

Computer Science. Haven't gotten i20 yet

Hello gurus in the house, please who knows universities with open admissions for the moment. I have a BSc and MSc degree already. I am looking for uni with high acceptance rate

Mathew2307:

Okay, thanks bro. I’m also waiting for I-20 too which I guess will be available this week.
I sent you a pm, can we discuss more about preparations going forward

I’m applying for a second master’s degree and will be using my first master’s degree as my main credential. Will they still require an official transcript from my undergraduate degree, or will my higher degree transcript alone be sufficient?

yes I have.

Is Abuja too now beginning to have preapproval request delays? Folks applying to Abuja, please kindly let us know so one can make informed decisions.

This is my fifth week of preapproval delay from Lagos, all just to get interview waiver letter from them (I suppose) and know my business is now with OIS.
