Why does he need a co-signer for a house worth more than $200k? Probably on a 20-30years? Brother, I can help anyone, but I can’t cosign for anyone. This is not about trust or anything, it is about principle and staying out of drama. If it’s a car of 5-10k that’s easy to pay off. But you want a co-signer for a Car of 35-50k? Once missed payment hurts your credit as well?

In this present State, it’s not about Nigeria or Africans, I can’t for anyone Tom Dick and Harry.

You not co-signing is a personal decision,but him coming to a public forum to state why would anyone trust a Nigerian is very offensive and a racist statement.

You'll surely get a school with the help of Google, and also prepare to write GRE and get a good score to boost your chance.
You saved up to 7M during your undergraduate? Your dad must be a senator or a governor of a state in naija but you try sha

goodemma20:

Yes they do, some schools may waive it for graduate studies but there's hardly any good school that'll waive it for undergrad.

Thanks a lot man

kindaguy:

All schools are affordable when you have a good sponsor

oduzbaba89:
good morning fellow nairalanders, I want to make some inquiry, please does the school upload application documents on the sevis record if sevis is activated to enable the embassy see the application documents.

thanks

I'm not too sure about that, Lagos mummy can answer that cc Lagosismyhome
but make sure you go to the embassy with the documents you sent to school for admission, I guess thats your reason for this question

If you think they are, let’s see you leave your bank account number here. We are a nation of the dishonest... you wouldn’t trust anyone here with your money, for all your feigned disgust.

Your opinion of my reasoning or education is your problem.

If you were an American, would you carelessly leave your financial details in an American forum, dishonest people are everywhere bro

No reasonable school would admit you for a masters CS program. you are lacking a lot, i mean a whole lot of prerequisites that even a an undergrad CS freshman is expected to have. If you're looking to make an IT switch, you can try Tech related options in your field of geology, probably something to do with simulation, signal processing, image sensing, Transducers/sensors et al. While you're waiting for the admission process, you can start getting your hands dirty with relevant programming languages (NumPy, MATLAB, C++ etc). It'll probably boost your chances for getting funded, by joining an active research Lab.

Information on the "visa lottery" is found here. https://travel.state.gov/content/visas/en/immigrate/diversity-visa/entry.html

sorry to ask but as a Nigerian can i apply ? Besides they said the site is down for maintanance. What does it implies ?

Do not fear, UNILAG is very efficient with this. Transcripts are never prepared unless there is a request; once your results are uploaded by CITS your transcripts can be prepared the next minute. I got mine within two months of completing my final exams, even before convocation.

Thank oga, I really appreciate this.

femi312:
There is no point rushing, what is worth doing is worth doing well. If you are writting GRE next Jan/Feb, just plan towards fall 2019, dont waste your money. Most good schools would have closed their applications by then.

I get your point sir and I appreciate your reply, but is it still possible for me to get admission for fall into some schools. Thanks

My nairaland people & mentors (the list is too long) I just got my Visa approved at Walter Carrington- 6.30am. I cannot thank God enough.
I was the 1st person that got approved today.. if you were at Walter Carrington this morning, I was the guy on an ox-blood shirt. I sha know I stood out

As per your second question. I think there are several private loans you can subscribe to incase you couldn't pay up.

Reasons like this is why most schools will request you submit financial statement before offering you an admission

If my financial statement is very good and i was given the loan and i was not able to pay when due.... will the account be penalised?

goodemma20:

Yes they do, some schools may waive it for graduate studies but there's hardly any good school that'll waive it for undergrad.

Not really true very good schools I've come across don't even have that as one of their requirements.

CockpitSense:
Thanks a lot ...
Do US schools require TOEFL/IELTS for undergraduate admission?

Some do and others don't, use Google to check for those that don't.

@walspring good morning, plz what's your email handle I would like to email.

thanks for this post

slimmy2005:
I cannot co-sign for anyone except my wife or kids. Before I co-sign for my kids, they have to show they are worth it and I wouldn’t co-sign an amount I can’t take care incase everything goes south.

I consigned a student loan for my lil sister, wasn't easy and then again, I couldn't see her fall out of status. You can only do that for your blood relative. This shot my debit to income ratio of the roof. Her student loans always reflected on my credit report. It was worth it thou, she is gainfully employed now.

dannyfrank1:

whyqueu:

Joan011:
Not really true very good schools I've come across don't even have that as one of their requirements.

So which other possible way exists for the school to access your proficiency in English?

Walspring:


With the way you emailed me back i got confused.

Try and use the context box and type there and not subject box.

Dear I tried but it won't send. Please I want to write this month & next month
