Applying as an undergraduate would make it worse. Once you can explain to them why you choose to go to sch this time and you are convincing enough, you should be fine.

VO: Why did you choose Emory Univ?
Me: During the course of my research, I came across Emory. It's highly ranked in my field of study. The school of public health is ranked 7th nationwide and it has one of the best Global health programs in the US. It's also affiliated to the CDC, Global health institute.. bla bla
VO: What do you do?
Me: I'm a medical doctor
VO: What kind of doctor are you?
Me: I'm a general practitioner for now
VO: So why are you going for a masters if you're already a doctor?

VO: What does she do?
Me: She is a contractor. Executes construction contracts for govt projects and private individuals.
VO: Do you have a bank statement from her?
Me: Yes I do *hands him d statement, letter from bank and letter from sponsor*
VO: *peruses docs for a while* Honestly I have a problem with your statement. Why does it repeatedly go from almost nothing to millions?
Me: It has been run as fixed deposit. If you look at the description on the debits and credits, it clearly states fixed deposit contract. The bank withdraws the money on the customer's instruction, trades with it and pays it back after 30days with interest.
VO: I still don't understand it
Me: Pls take a look at the financial certificates from the bank for the fixed deposit and the letter.
VO: I have seen them. I still don't understand where the money goes. I'm sorry I won't be granting this visa.

Pls I need advice and input from the gurus. I don't know how somebody won't know the meaning of fixed deposit. I'll be going back next month. What shld I do different?

imperiouxx:


Question: Let say you're in US now, can you make school payment like right away from this account? This is something you have to address properly before your next appearance at the embassy? Not everyone would be convinced that the money gone just before the interview and would be back in 30 days after the interview. And all they want to see is immediate available fund for studies. You were denied for insufficient fund.

Thanks for the response.

Please, have you used them before? If yes, do you mind sharing your experience?

Thanks

In as much as i changed plans and opted to go to the UK since my Undergraduate GPA didnt favour me, i still love everything about this thread, cos one day,after my Masters in the UK i will still come here and testify of visa approval to the US.
Please guys, i still need some info from you guys. I believe it will be of help to others too. Will appreciate answers to the following:
1. Please now that most banks have started withdrawing the use of debit cards for International transactions, whats the alternative if one travels out and how best can one access his or her maintenance fee? How then can one have access to the money in his or her Naija bank account?
2. Please i might be a novice but it won't be a bad idea if i asked this. Please can someone please explain what domiciliary account is. Whats the use of it to a student travelling to the UK for studies. I will admit that i don't know what it is.
Thanks.

Tods:
Ejo o nitori olorun, how long does it take a school to process form i20. Someone is getting fed up here.

aadeyi:


Q1. To be able to access the funds in your account, open a dorm acct and sign up for online banking, that way u can easily transfer money from your normal acct to your dorm acct or money can be paid directly into your dorm acct by anyone.

Q2. A domiciliary acct is an acct that is denominated with a foreign currency. A Nigerian dorm acct can be denominated either by $, £, or €. So in your case as regards UK, u will need a £ dorm acct. The dorm acct allows unlimited withdrawal from anywhere in d world. There might be charges though, depends on your bank.

As a student your funds from home can be made into this acct and the rate will be the CBN rate. Also you can transfer into this acct from an international bank acct and vise versa.

Hope this helps.

Fizzile--

I'm not saying you should stop your UK application but I still think you didn't do your HW well. All you need to do is go to msinus.com (don't go to grad café, those folks profiles are intimidating). Look for schools that accept a GPA of 2.0 and 2.5, and you will be fine.

Well i think those who know about my case will understand. I did virtually everything possible but like i said, anyone who knows about my ish will sure know that was the only option.
