I would write them if I feel it's taking too long. It's either they reply you or not, nothing to lose but I'm sure they will reply you with a good reason. Have you checked their website to see how long it takes them to make decision?

Thanks bro

olenime:

yea, i understand how killing is could be, but have it that you will surely be contacted. keep praying and keep being positive! i disturbed my school last year about my decision but denied. pls have patient like NEW me...lol
you can as well check http://thegradcafe.com/survey/index.php for any update about your school. it a forum to see if they have started sending admission decision to others.
i hope this helps....

thanks very much bro, that link was helpful, i found out that some departments in the school i applied to have been receiving admission, but none from my department (Computer Information System). My hope is high thouhj. Thanks once again

sureb0y:


Most of them always write that contacting them RE: your admission status could slow down the process and delay their decisions. It's always better to wait for them to do their ish at their own time. If you're very impatient like me sha, you could just send them an email and ask the question in a general way (I didn't send any mail to ask o). Like you would like to know when they usually make decisions. Don't quote your case, just ask them when they generally decide. My advice is to wait though. I hope this helps.

Bro, it wasnt stated on there website that one would be penalized for requesting for information, but i am just curious nani, I even have a very good rapour with the Graduate cordinator, i will still try and mail my counsellor, thanks bro for the advice, really appreciate.

Big bro, I need your candid advice on something. I just sent you a mail.

hello imperiouxx and other gurus. my friends wants to go to usa tru studnt visa, he doesnt intend studyin and he already hav his visa.. but the school asked for a deposit fees so that when he gets there his id card and other documnt would be ready which he hasnt paid, he wants to pay when he gets there. my questions are
1. is it possible for them to ask for the receipt of the deposit fees of the school at the usa port of entry?
2. even if he pays the deposit fees and gets to the school, if he collect the i.d card and move to another state asap, will the school report him? ... because he needs the i.d card for working
Thanks

Olacombs23:

Thanks

Yes the school will report you and cancel your visa (by notifying immigration that you have broken your conditions.)
The i.d. card will be on record and will ring alarm bells wherever it is used.
No legal work will be possible so you will only be able to take jobs on minimum wage that no one else wants.
You will spend every day watching out for officials and police.

Enjoy your stay.

Please people I need your advice... I was rejected at the Abuja embassy on Monday for student f-1 visa and I just paid another application fee and plan for reapply tomorrow but my questions goes thus

2. What are the chances of me being given since I was denied already?

Please I need advice and criticism

please can you let us know how your interview goes?

imperiouxx:


And for you, one question you need to address is why the VOs always ask "how many schools you applied to" during student visa interviews. It's not because they have no more questions. They ask to see if you're really serious about the admission. Generally speaking, one school is a unique pattern among the unserious applicants.

And saying you got admitted to one school while you're in the process of applying to other is laughable. Don't forget that we've been through this application process too. If your target is fall semester for example, almost all schools start making decisions around the same time. Rolling admission is not common, probably your one school doesn't even doing rolling. Tell me what time you have to wait for the outcome of decision from the one school before you start applying to others? By then deadline date is already passed.

Therefore, if you're thinking this's what would be your reply to the VO during your interview....... I'm sorry, you've entered one chance, they know too well better than you do that such claim makes no sense. I'm not discouraging you but work more on what your claims would be if you're asked.

We could go on and on about arguing, but that's not the reason for the thread. the highlighted parts are up for scrutiny, I won't criticize dem here, just re-read them and do a self-critique. Like I said, different people and different circumstances. The same way applying to one school could be seen as unseriousness, applying to many schools could be seen as desperation or being unsure of your study plans... keyword: could. Another thing you should consider is this: you make it look like some things are impossible. some things defy logic but they happen. Many roads lead to a market. You're more experienced than I am on this matter, and I acknowledge that fact. I'm just saying there are unique circumstances and you should always consider each case separately.
I'll give you an example of a circumstance. Mr A. wants to study a particular course. That's what he wants. he has missed the admission deadline of most of the unis, just about 3 schools left. he applies to one cos GRE isn't compulsory, the remaining two... he puts on hold till the GRE result is out. before GRE result comes out, the school offers him admission with funding, bro... he has the freedom to choose whether to apply to the other two unis or NOT. Do you think explaining this confidently to a VO, would be nonsense just because lazy students apply to one school? Now I believe you understand what I'm trying to say. There are no right or wrong answers, different people and different circumstances. I THINK the key is to be able to justify whatever you've done/decided. why you applied to one school, why u decided to go for a particular course, why you did x or y, etc.
Argument OVER! I could be saying rubbish sha, na just wetin I think. No vex sir. Pardon my inexperience.
Abeg, I need to send money order or check to Georgia State Uni ($50). you fit help? I'll pay the Naira equivalent. Thanks.

Been a while o..hope you're good.

Amefrica:

Mild isn't appropriate. It was as though there was no winter. Not around all through January though but reports had it that it wasn't bad. I only hope summer wouldn't be too harsh.

I'm trying to. I might call you on Saturday.

Hey Richiebay, I read your transcript and you did not sound convincing enough, and you applied to a single school. Saying you did not consider another school, sounds like there is a motive.
A net search is not a convincing answer, you should have specified the web you used for your search.
Stated you applied to more than one school, two or three.

Anyway all i can tell you is to go and pray as you apply again.
I don't know you well, but all i can tell you is that, all you need to do is pray.
That did it for me.

Fortissimo:


Which state u dey? E make sense.

I'm in Canada.

Hi guys, I studied Electrical Electronics Engr, (HND)
But now, I want to study Nursing in USA,

1. Im I eligible to apply for transfer student or for freshman?

2. Can any one recommend any school that will likely accept me as transfer student?

3. Do I need to write english test exam ?
(Note)I dnt need visa, I have US resident.
I only admission.

Please help
