How can you have a statement of your dad and you don't what is inside it. I doubt if your certificate is even real. Some people are really funny.

The wise ones here have said some and some will still tell u more.
Be smart to understand them and ask them for interview transcript...

I think the first flag was the course.... what can social science master do for you that will be applicable in naija. Even in the US how easy would it be to get a job with social science. ..... the purpose of F1 visa is with the aim that the student returns back to naija so if they feel it not a relevant course then that creates issues...[culled]

I don't think the course is a problem. I don't want people to think they have to change the course they want to do, just to get a visa. They key I believe is, being able to defend the course.

People here get visas for very esoteric courses like archaeology. Saw that one on this very thread. Remember seeing one or two other extremely esoteric program visa approvals recently, too. Also, a guideline available online from the us embassy (will dig for it if pressed) on the interpretation of home times, says they will not deny you a visa just for the fact that your intended course of study is impractical in Nigeria. Another case in point is an aeronautic engineering approval I saw too. Perhaps LagosNIV may wish to comment further on this as it is a technical point.

While i hear u , u used two courses that are practical in Nigeria. They might not be popular doesn't mean its impractical especially aeronautical engineering

Also i never said it was just the course . I gave 3 feedback and said the first flag was d course then not able to give good reason why the school then to cap it all the financial

Sure, but my point was that the course doesn't really matter if you can defend it. I am sorry for quoting just a section, but I did that because I was only responding to that part. Other potential applicants may just see that part and because they are going for an esoteric course, may get discouraged. Those were actually the people I was targeting with my response.

Congrats adunke

Congrats to rachy and others who have their visa application approved so far... I wish you well in your future endeavors. As for many of us who are still looking forward for this testimony, may God grant it to us with ease. Amen.
@rachy, we are waiting for your transcript.
Thanks.

You couldn't say something positive about your dad's statement of account. How could you defend yourself now with someone else's bank statement?

You're lucky you weren't banned. If truly the statement of account is real and it belongs to your father, then interpret it well and re-apply as soon as possible but if it's the other way round, you just have to look for another sponsor.

Good luck!

thank you , sure I will

Damn it's been almost a year and the Half I left the country and this place is still helping people out, that's nice so someone please tell me how is the visa process going is it easy or harder than before, people should share experiences and i can see if I can help undergrad I definitely have an answer but grad school I might not know, cc @walspring

papazion:
@darefadi thanks for ur point noted...So does it mean I can reapply again? also the course is wide and cuts accross other professions like economics,political sc,intl relation nd the likes.So do u advice I go with another acct,the same embassy ?

You need to take a moment breath and then dont act so desperately..Changing account or embassy might not make a change.

You need to evaluate your whole body of work. What was ur first degree in relation to ur masters. Why really do u want to do msc in social science or is just a way to travel..If its d latter they might see right through u . Your test scores were not mentioned but did u do any and what were u scores blc might be asked a second time around. U talk of account. I dont know how much was in it or if u are able to provide source of d funds but next time u have to know in detail d document u are taking and how much ur dad earns. Changing sponsor most likely would raise another flag

Nobody can predict for u how it will go next time but u need to calm down and look at your whole package
Tie everything together and prepare well on how best to sell yourself , ur experience and your future goals

Pls do i need a transit visa if my flight (Qatar Airlines) stopover in London?

No you do not need a transit if you have an F1 visa stamp and your transit time is within 24hours ......... However note that you cannot leave the airport in london . If you decided to go through immigration in UK to leave the airport, it then you would be denied entry if you dont have a UK VISa .. Make sure your arrival terminal to London and departure terminal is the same because if they are different that would mean you have to leave the airport to go from one terminal to the other .
