Hello everyone!

Please those that travelled recently I have a question.

Please is it still required to carry some amount of dollars from Nigeria to US?

I ask because my friend is confused since GTB told him that he could use his ATM card there to do normal transactions.

Besides banks no longer sell dollars.
He also wants to know if it won't be an issue at the airport
Please suggest what he can do.



Please we need help on this regards urgently

TIA.

[color=#006600][/color]
If he can get cash, even up to the max of $10000, let him/her do. These banks wont tell u somethings; its when you get here that you will realize that there are some other subtle charges wen u transact here or use ATM here. Also at the current dollar exchange, its not economical at all.

If you are referring to money for upkeep for some weeks before you settle down, I think the maximum you can have on you is $10,000 (not sure).

You are on point.. Just $10,000 and if it's $10.001 it must be declare

Has he checked Wahl 8467 Super Taper Hair Clipper $61.07 on amazon? Only if his beard is not made of wires, Wahl Deluxe Chrome Pro 25 pc #79524-5201 $34.92 (amazon) is good too. I've been using it since 2012 and it still cuts fine till today.

Evening house, I have some buddies that we applied to this school; California University of Management and Sciences (Calums) for our MBA Business Administration. We were admitted but have not gotten our visas despite that we have applied 3time 2time 1time respectively. Please I really wanna know what is wrong. Please kindly help check if this school is among those US school that have REG FLAG. This school has a small students body and don't require TOEFL for admission. I heard some students do apply to schools, get admission and visa and they run once they landed in USA. I'm a genuine students, I just wanna know if this is what is really affecting my chance of getting visa with this Calums school. Thanks

Please ladies and gents in he house.

I plan to apply for 2017/2018 session this year through scholarship funding.


My question is this, would I need to apply for only GRE or ToEFL or both?

How much will each cost me?

When is the best time to apply for it as regards the session and the time I'll be applying?


Thanks

Strictly my opinion (I might be wrong).... But I will suggest you switch schools.

CALUMS is a one building university in Anaheim, just a step above VIU, Sillicon Valley, Everest and the rest. I guess because it had the name California University gives it some kind of leverage but it's still a private, for profit university. Why waste time and money?

Like I said, this is my own opinion. Someone might have a counter opinion. Peace.

Maybe you chose the cheapest product. I use CONAIR and it works fine. I learnt a valuable lesson since I came here, don't buy stuff because its on sale at ridiculous price, buy what you need and make sure its quality. Walmart and co selling cheap stuff, its rare you find long lasting goods from them. Most of their products are temporary,
As per Amazon, read VERIFIED CUSTOMER REVIEWS, very key before making purchase. It might not be the same but you'll have an idea of what you want to spend your hard earned money
