God bless you. May you give your Visa testimony soon what about Texas Elpaso?

UTEP is ok. Though UTA is of a better standard. Admission rate is 99%. So they always admit. Tution is about 18,000$. But I will try TAMU if I were you. You authomatically qualify to pay instate tuition which is 7000$ and it's well ranked. But I'm terms of cost of living, Elpaso is very affordable.

Ok. Most schools in Texas will ask you for TOEFL. That's the Texas school system. But for TAMU they waived TOEFL because I was speaking to them almost everyday...lol. So they concluded my English was perfect. Infact they said they didnt need it. Na my GRE finish me. I plan to transfer later to TAMU if it's possible.

Lol. No disagree o. I have been to the both physically. I have family members living in both cities, and so I got to know. If you even see the structure of the schools, UTEP can't be compared with UTA. UTEP they make it easy because of the Latinos in elpaso. People from Mexico cross the border to attend school. Though they population is the school is high. But teust me, admission ain't that xompetive. I know someone that was admitted with an OND.

You need cancel the appointment and schedule for Abuja and not Lagos

Electrical Engineering. He would do a pre masters, take leveling courses, after which he would go for the main degree. And they still gave him visa. Though he had to take some courses even after getting there, before he was allowed to register for classes.

This is my success story.
June 8th 6:30am appointment
Visa approved at 7:30am
Got to the embassy @6am, Lotsa pple r already gathered outside (even pple with 7am appointment), we were ushered in for verification, biometrics n queued for abt 45mins b4 interview proper. I was interviewed at Window 3 by a young-old American lady. Everyone (even guys wey dy stuutter) that did d interview b4 me was approved, this gave me confidence that I won't be an exception.
Conversation between VO and I.
VO: Gud morning
Me: Morning madam.
I passed my i20 n passport. *she hardly looked @ d i20 sef b4 approving me.
VO: Why are you going to US?
Me: I want to purse a masters degree in Chemistry with specialization in Environmental Analytical Chemistry at East Tennessee State University.
VO: Who is ur sponsor?
Me: I'm on a graduate teaching assistantship scholarship while the remainder of my fees would be paid by my sister and brother-in-law(VO cuts me short) *she took a glance at my i20 to verify this*
VO: What would you do after your program?
Me: I would take up an employment as a lecturer at my Alma matter. (She looked at me for a few seconds n faced the system back, *she was contended with wah I said already but I still continued talking though). I would take up managerial roles in Environmental Agencies so as to proffer longlasting solutions to environmental problems in Nigeria.
VO: I'll be approving your application.
Me: Thanks so much.
