LONG POST ALERT: MY VISA TRANSCRIPT
SEASON 1: The first time I visited this thread I was overwhelmed with the information overload in fact I didn't know where to start but soon decided to download the app and talk to someone to help with Mock interview as my interview was for Wednesday, July 5.

By Sunday morning July 2nd, I was hit with terrible malaria that I couldn't talk or move but by Tuesday it was better leaving me with big sores on my mouth.
Naso I found my way to Lasgidi and I called Walspring who pointedly told me I don't need a mock it's nit necessary and that he doesn't even help people with that, I said thank you jejely and moved on to Lagosismyhome, the madam just tell me say I dey do last minute rush say she no get my time and she was truly busy but not relenting Mr John sent me Texrem number and I called him.

Fiam! I knew I hit my jackpot immediately we spoke because he gave me on the spot interview and we began the journey. I called him about six different times, he would correct and I will re-practice over again, don't forget he stays abroad it was international call so I was blowing money in fact I had to just load call credit from my bank account. Till 4am, we were on it, sometimes he would deny me visa due to my performance and at times he would give me but all these sharpened me.

SEASON TWO: I left for the embassy and the powers that be ensured I lost my way after 3rd mainland bridge, uhmmm even Google Map no gree help, network run Comot and I had to be asking for directions for a road I know so well, cut it short it took me one hour to get to Walter Carrington. The official told me I was late angrily but I apologized and he later left me, it was raining and the tension was making me go to the rest room every ten minutes. I eventually did the normal routine check and finally entered for interview proper.

SEASON THREE: I was directed to the bulky Asian man at WINDOW 1. (The guy face strong no even smile atall)

VO: GOOD MORNING
ME: Good morning sir

VO: Pass me your passport. (I gave him). Why are you going to the US?
ME: I will be travelling to pursue my masters degree in Communication studies at Tarleton State University, Texas.

VO: Give me your I-20? (I gave him)

VO: Why did you choose the school?
ME: Asides from the fact that I will be recieving as a plus to my degree, a dual certificate in Organizational comm and Computer Mediated Communications, the program infuses a blend of modern and traditional methods of comm. (cuts me short).

VO: A lot of schools offers this same course in the US why are you picking this school.
(Truth is I just told him some jargons I can't remember. Then He looked at me like "e be like say this girl dey craze" and then he lost his cool).
I said why are you choosing a small school in the middle of nowhere in the US for your program? (and he looked straight into my eyes, I felt like disappearing but braced up).

ME: I want to become an Internal Communication specialist and media analyst for Multinational corporations and I have been working with Dr Jennifer Edwards from the university who is the Executive director of Texas Social Media Research Institute on a paper (he smiled and cuts me)
VO: Who will be sponsoring your trip?
ME: My aunt she owns chains of petrol and gas stations scattered all over Nigeria.

VO: Have you ever traveled out of the country before?
ME: No.

(He looked at the two papers looked at my face and just turned his face to his computer picked one paper without turning and he turned back and saw it was the white one, he gave me and told me to come get my visa blablabla, I didn't even hear the rest as I quickly grabbed the white paper and slipped out of the door before he changed his mind, you know you really can't rely on China tins � ). JUST LIKE THAT, OLOWOGBOGBORO stretched forth my my white paper to me and that's how I got my visa!!! He never finish o!


SEASON FOUR: I want to specially thank everyone on this thread who has ever answered any question, God bless you. I don't feel bad about those that couldn't help me, an adage says "To catch a monkey, you need to climb the the tree" so I just take it as one life experiences. Vinci500, and Mr John thanks big time. Texrem, I throway salute for you, for the sacrifice of your holiday time and all God bless you big, and I need to go and fight MTN they were just slashing my credit anyhow. Please If you are waiting for interview, pray for favour and be bold but practice remember "Faith without works is dead". In all I give the ultimate thanks to God who favoured me all through.

Watch out for Season5 titled, "You will Share Your Own Transcript"! can I hear an Ameeeeen!

I received my i20 today and I already sent money to a friend to pay for my SEVIS fee of which I generated the coupon since last week. I hope the coupon is still valid?
Again, can I go again and fill the DS160 and pay for visa application while I wait for my friend to pay SEVIS fee?

NOTICE TO STUDENT VISA HOLDERS:
As at last night, @ Georgia Atlanta, a student visa holder (a Nigerian and cousin to my friend's friend) was turned back home after his visa was cancelled. The reason is that he did not leave Nigeria at the date stated on his I-20 that he should resume. He had waited more more months; that is, he should have left few months back. So when he got to the port of entry, he was sent back.

I am not saying this to put fear in anybody here, but pay attention and make sure you get your ticket in time. You have your visa already, and so you have no business waiting in Nigeria --EXCEPT your school resumption date is still more than 30 days. Please be warned! I wish all of you safe journey.

I advice all of you to leave latest 5 days before your school resumption, and make sure it is less than a month before your resumption. If you come in when it is still more than a month before your resumption date, forget it, you will be sent back live and you will need to buy another ticket. Be warned! And more importantly, AVOID LAX--Los Angelis International Airport, except you are going to that area. People are having issue with immigration at this port of entry! This information is coming directly from Texas, US.
Emmanuel.

A student who is truly prepared should know the rules... you can enter within 30days and not later than the start date on your i20

If instead he travelled months after his i20 start date ... then is that a student

It is possible financial circumstances changed and he had to change session or resumption date but proper research would have told him to get a new i20 ....

Thanks for sharing. Hopefully someone learns a thing or two to avoid

S/he should have requested for extension from his/her school but i assumed dem get am from his village

You call this crap? When did you travel? If it is not useful for you because you have travelled, it is better you fold your fingers and watch. I am sure a lot of students with visas are looking for money for the ticket; I don't know why the guy got in late, even though he should have left earlier. Your comment is totally irrelevant, and I hope you will modify it.

But the guy in question should have differ if the money for flight disappeared.
