See the post I made sometimes ago below
Depending on which state you are going, your best bet is Lycamobile's $19 plan,its cheap and its going to serve you till when you settle and you decide to choose other carrier or plan. The $19 plan comes with 100mb data,unlimited calls and text within the US. You can also call about 60 countries too, but Nigeria is not included. You can only call Nigeria's landline on the $23 plan and higher plans. You can try Tmobile's $27 plan too which comes with unlimited call and text within US but no data, the $45 tmobile plan comes with 3gig data. But if you ask me, Lycamobile's $19 is the way for a new student till you settle and decide to choose any other plan or carrier. You can always port from carrier to carrier within 1day. If you are not driving soon, you don't need to worry about data since most apartment (all utilities included) and schools have wifi you can always connect automatically too.You should order the lycamobile plan on there website and it comes with a free sim, with that one guy in the mall wont scam you to pay activation fee/sim etc. I am always an advocate of do it yourself except the issue requires an expertise you don't have.
imperioux made mention of ultramobile or so, you can check them out too. If you have a GA or you will be receiving monthly deposit of not less than $200 I think, Bank of America checking account is the best for me, no charge, nothing. But if you wont be receiving monthly deposit in the account you plan to open, each month you dont receive a deposit you will be charged $25. In that case you can check wells fargo too but I have no ideal about there service. And mind you account in the US do enter negative and you will be charged $35 for each overdraft.

A lot of Nigerians in ETSU, kai. I was at the library the other day and I heard, from strategic locations, people speaking pidgin in hush tones. I just dey dere, dey smile, shake head. It felt good though. And quite a number of them haven't been to Nairaland. I always thought Nairaland was the 'gateway' to securing an F1 visa. The ones that have, talked about LagosismyHome. Aunty you bi celeb here o lol. More power to your elbow, you too much. Good day, my people. grin

I was giving spring 2018 Admission at cleveland state university. You don't need to DHL any document since you have applied online sending scanned copies. And already,your application is in process so you are good.

Hello.

I'm sorry I don't really follow. Do you mean you applied for another bachelor's degree in sociology? Do you already have a bachelor's degree?
Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 12 by peterderock4dei: 7:56pm On Aug 16, 2017
Yes i hv a bachelor's degree already bt i want to apply for masters after denial

I'm sorry for your rejection. I can understand why they would want to deny you. Definitely look into applying for a Masters. I think you've wasted enough money on visa application fees.
