Pls everyone in the house ,can someone help with me some schools in the state that accept tuition deposit from international applicants.Thank u
You don't need that. Why do you wanna waste your money? What you need is schools that do not require any deposit.

Be smart!

Guys, I got a new application for tomorrow. I was earlier delayed 28th July and i dropped my transcript.. The school resumes on 17th. I am able to get a new date for 11th.
The issue is.. I am filling a new ds160. i was asked

"Have you ever been refused a U.S. Visa, or been refused admission to the United States, or withdrawn your application for admission at the port of entry?"

Explain?

Please what should i write

IT IS VERY URGENT (please you understand the capital letter)
God bless

Were you refused a U.S. Visa or asked to complete another application DS 160. if you were asked to complete another application only, that's not a refusal. your answer will be NO but if you were denied a visa and asked to to complete another application then your answer will be YES.

I Think the one that should be answered is if "you were denied a visa", because that is what embodies the rest of the questions.

and definitely you know better, YES!, you were denied a visa, The rest doesn't apply!

The best is to cancel and rebook again ,don't ever go with wrong ds-160 number because u won't be interviewed which will be waste of money because u have to pay another visa application fee and probably won't have a closer date. For the advice someone gave u no one is above mistake,don't listen to that ooo...even If it's just a letter in your name u made mistake they won't interview you.

Pls advice what steps to take.
My plane is about leaving to my final destination from dubai - JFK - buffalo. However I have only $600 on me though I have money on my master card. Something happened on Friday that posses me off, most banks told me they wernt selling PTA. 1st bank directed me to Oba Akran & assured me I'll get, on getting there they told me they don't have. I later went to my 2nd bank after touring the whole banks on Allen & Oba Alan Ikeja.
The Customer care told me they sold $ & they had upto $4000 available, she called the manager on fone and she confirmed it but she said they would close the portal by 2pm. Time was 1:30 but the money was in Gtbank close by. I had no Internet so hurriedly went to gt to do Internet transfer then rushed back & submitted all necessary docs just b4 2pm. The cc then told me the money hadn't reflected cos it was my access acct that would be debited. I hurriedly ran to withdraw 800k cash but saw the credit alert on my access acct.
To cut long story, after scanning all my docs which was well past 2pm around 2:20 they still uploaded my docs online, the manager them said they don't have upto 4k. That she has $200 . I knew she was playing games as she had seen I was travelling wkend and won't b around on Monday, I rapped her to sell for me even @ higher price say 205 cos she knew I was desperate. Also told her that she didn't tell me all this till she took my info. She then said she'll check & later said she had additional $1k. I waited till 3pm b4 she changed mouth and said the portal had closed.
I was like u didn't know it has passed 2 since but yet you took all my info so u can buy it with my info and sell to aboki later.
GUYS, I just wanna stop her from using my info to buy @ 200 and sell to aboki. Her name is omotayo olarenwaju @ access Allen branch. Not so sure about her first name sha.
Pls advice

Dubai isn't a US Point of Entry. Abu Dhabi is. You only go through Abu Dhabi if you fly with Etihad Airlines (the other national carrier of the UAE). If you fly Emirates, you go through Dubai, which is Emirates' hub and their is no US POE there. Which means your POE will be on US soil.

Almost all Canadian International Airports have a US POE though

Okay! Firstly, I want to thank every member of this thread for your levels of contributions towards the success of my interview today...Honestly I can't mention names at this moment as soooo many people were involved in my case.

Visa approved this morning after a previous 5days ago.

VO:Me: Simultaneously....good morning
Me: with a smile..
VO: typing....typing... Typing...typing
VO: pass me your documents
Me: Here we go....passes them
VO: Here we go
VO: we would proceed by verifying your finger prints
Me: Okay....places finger for scanning
VO: typing... Typing... Typing while perusing my i-20 at the same time
VO: what are your study plans
Me: (Totally off balance, Jesus, no be so we talk say him go take start o...
Me: stuttering... I plan to study MS in Chemistry, with specialization in Air monitoring... The degree with equip me with desired skills and techniques required to monitor the quality of both ambient and indoor air, that way, I would be very knowledgeable about the extent of pollutants that I'm exposed to at every given point in time, ultimately, I plan to take up lecturing job in the school where I obtained my BSc. Cos they really lack environmental lecturers..
VO: so you have a first degree
Me: Yes
VO: when did you get the degree
Me: didn't hear her well...university of Nairaland... Then I heard her right... And attached 2011
VO: Why MTSU
Me: (Now you start....During my undergraduate project research on atmospheric pollutants while searching for related publications in chemistry journals , I bumped into an article written by Prof. Ngee Sing Chong – further researches on his publications revealed that he teaches and researches at MTSU, the article was so instrumental and very useful throughout the period of the research and so I became so interested in other publications of his while closely monitoring other research interests of his that align with the background study I did on atmospheric pollutants...
During our correspondence he mentioned he has secured grant supporting on his newest research on atmospheric monitoring of biogenic terpenes... and there we discussed about the possibility of me joining his research group. He then advised that I apply as a graduate student in MTSU or possibly join as a full bright scholar in which he promised to write a good recommendation letter on my behalf...
Then after going through the curriculum at MTSU, I discovered that the syllabus aligns closely with my career and research interests, then I decided to give it a shot.

VO: what have you been working as

Me: didn't hear her very well...I work in .......co.pant ltd

VO: You have been working as

Me: senior business executive

VO: what are your job functions

Me: I help sales team to meet and exceed sales target, I equal research market information and make sure that we are not lagging in any capacity..

VO: You have been working in business environment, and now you want to do a masters degree in air monitoring...

Me: Cuts in, actually after my undergraduate studies where I graduated with a first class degree, I was to be retained a lecturer, but that wouldn't happen except I have my MS, so, instead of staying doing nothing till I obtained my Masters degree, I decided to....
VO: she started nodding (O bago...

Me: I didn't even finish the sentence again when I realised that she has bot into my talk

VO: Who is gonna pay for your studies

Me: confidential level 200%.....my dad

VO: what does he do:

Me: I told him

VO: types for a very long while

Me: prays for very long while...

VO: brought out a white paper and a Biro And said some things I didn't hear nor cared to hear.

Me: Jesus, Na like this you dey?

Meanwhile, while standing on the queue b4 the interview, out of more than 25people that went b4 me, not more than 4 were approved...I was like, I have prayed Na, so are all these ones that were denied....I didn't know if I should continue praying or not..I was so fidgeting till it gets to my turn...I only became confident when I was the first on the list...I didn't notice the line moving cos I was lost in thought monitoring other's interviews and transcripts and stingy VO's...
Of the truth, at first, I prayed not to encounter the VO that approved my visa, but at a time, I prayed to encounter anyone that wouldnt give me back my passport today...

It was just God's favour

My advice is to para for them in that bank and let their head office be aware of it...

There is one unique line in each ban that you can call and report any of their staff for wasting your time and not treating you well but the sad thing about this is that the staff could be sack and i dont think you want that staff to be sacked

But you can shaka her that you will report her for wasting your time maybe she will cooperate
