My department offered me a GTA after I have submitted my affidavit of financial support form. I am amazed to see that the GTA support was not included in my I-20.

How do I strongly defend my financial support without an evidence of GTA offer on my I-20 ?
Please HELP!!!!

You can request for a new i20 if you still have time which I doubt. However, that is not a problem, once the VO ask you how you intend to fund your studies, you can now chip in that you got a GTA and make sure you print the award letter stating how much the GTA will offset in your Tuition bill and stipend as proof. You are not the first and you wont be the last. You should be fine.

Ask the school if they can redo the i20 to reflect it .... if time is short and they cannot then take a printout of the GTA for your interview and if any question arises about who your sponsor is then state you have GTA but its not reflected on your i20 because it came after and present it

Just work on your answers on why the school , why the course ...once you prepare well and with grace you should be fine

I submitted my DS160 before paying visa fee.
joeluv:
My own DS-160 had no education or language question. Though it has US travel history question. I don't think it has anything to do with payment of visa fee. But you need to at least pay your visa fee before submitting your DS 160. It's just logical you do that.

It's not so graphic though, maybe you're not used to watching epic, horror, action or adventure movies that's why you think it is. Well it's the still the world's number one series grin

Lol. Maybe you didn't take time to watch it well and understand the movie, if you key into it you'll look past all the tragedy and dirtyness.lol. Maybe you started from season 1 because the beginning was boring, graphic and dirty. But subsequently it reduced and became very interesting. grin cheesy

Get a Bachelors first. It makes it easier. This is merely a suggestion.
Also, I think some go through the Associate Degree route, but it's more dicey, visa wise.

There are bad reviews and there are bad reviews. With this review you've just posted of Delta airline, I'll still go with them. Yes, it sure looks like they fell short, in a way, in the area of customer service but you need to factor in a number of circumstances when you choose to fly with an airline. There's no glaringly obvious terrible event or person in this review. But then, there's no established metric for quantifying what exactly is 'terribly bad' in terms of customer service among airliners. My judgment may be subjective.

That said, I posted that review of Royal Air Maroc because I found it very disturbing and didn't want any NLer to experience such. If I find a similar review of Delta, I most definitely will let this e-family in on it.

It seems you like to eat dinner rolls and chocolate bars in the middle of the night. Then get the agriculture department after your bags for whatever food your brought into the country at Atlanta. If trying to cut cost is the reason, well, do Delta but if not, don't waste your money.

@ lagosismyhome... I have always wanted to study nursing but due to pressure from family just to enter the university I went with computer. Now my husband wants me to study a second degree in nursing. We have both being to the US last year. But he is back in the country and he is sponsoring me. I already have a b1/b2 visa. Spent 1 month in the state last year.

In what did you have your first degree? And are you going ADN or BSN? Nursing is one of those courses with high number of starters and high attrition leading to few graduates. Schools (mostly privates) make lot of money from those students.

Congrats bro. All praises to God alone. You were well prepared for it and God got you.


scoreall:

Sorry 4 d late posting. Visa approved 7:15am today at Walter Carrington. The big white guy interviewed me. I can’t remember is window no. bt I knw he’s beside d old lady. He denied d 1st, approved d 2nd before me. The interviewed goes thus:



VO: Gud am

Me: Gud am

VO: ao u doin today

Me: m gud nd u?

VO: Gud, so why ds school ?

Me: (stammered a bit, b4 getting my balance) their Applied Comp Science Curriculum fits into my …VO cuts in

VO: I don’t want any of dt ur pretext information, why r u chosing ds school?

Me: (Still said same thing bt rephrased)… ETSU Applied Computer Science curriculum fits perfectly into my past experience nd my future career goals as a Software Quality Analyst… VO cuts in

VO: tell me bou d curriculum den?

Me: (4 my mind; God don catch u today) it comprises of courses like software project mgt, software engineerin,…. Which comprises of technical know-how required 4 me to become Software Test Automation Engineer.

VO: wah av u bn doin after school

Me: I worked in a sch as an IT instructor during my service year after which I worked in a firm dt consults for an electricity distribution company as an IT/Application support b4 finally joining d bank where I work as a Software Quality Analyst were I test core banking applications b4 dey rolled out 4 use.

VO: I see uve got a scholarship, ao did u get ds?

Me: I belive d committee in charge of d scholarship board were impressed wt my profile wich consist of my UG CGPA,SOP nd test scores.

VO: wah test did u take:

Me: TOEFL nd GRE

VO: ur scores

Me: TOEFL 88, GRE 287

VO: (so den d magic word came in).

Bros, I tot guys were jes exaggerating wen dey said u won’t hear anything again after the first magic word. I jes see say baba jes circle d white paper ni.


All thanks to Almighty Allah for making me among one of doz dt would post a testimony here, nd also making me remember wah dey call Nairaland. cos I knew NL since its inception nd av bn using it for info resources during job hunting. Bt it never crossed my mind during my application process. Bt I thank God I still found my way back.

My first appreciation goes to d founder of ds great forum Seun Osewa, cos without him lot of us would av bn lost nd duped by agents, me being no.1.

My esteemed regards goes to Cmbagwu, ds guy calls me as if he’s my father. As if he’d be at lost if ds thing go otherwise. The surprising thing bou ds guy z dt I never knew he hasn’t even gone 4 his own visa yet. Where an average Nigerian would be fightin 4 his own head. He still called me ds morning 4 a quick one. I salute ur selfless act boss.

Texrem!!! Ds dude is an angel. He told me last nty: “Guy, I want u to wake me up wt a good news” after our concluding mock session. Ur contribution is unquantifiable; from my payment to mock interviews. I don’t fink u alone will be able to finish ur reward on ds earth, ur offspring will continue reaping from wah uve sowed.

My profound gratitude goes to PrinceG& Shabol, I thank u for everything. Ur impacts are unquantifiable.

To other gurus in d house (lagosismyhome,oludare01 nd odas)dt I knw, it wz due to d fact dt deir hands were full tats y dey were unable to help me. Bt ur contribution is unquantifiable, it also complete my whole. Keep up d gud work.

I used to be among d ones dt tot Nigeria can never be great again, bt ds forum proved me wrong. Let's replicate ds to d outside world.
