I am supposed to get an email when my passport is ready for pickup right.

Normally you're supposed to. But check your pick-up center by Wednesday or Thursday if you don't get an email from DHL.

I was placed in administrative processing for about 42 days since the day of my interview. However, I was eventually cleared and got my visa in about a week thereafter. I met about 2 other guys who were placed in the same pool and were later rejected. You'll just have to wait cos there is virtually nothing you can do except to try and mail em once a week after 30days. Moreover, there are varieties of administrative processing and I don't know which category yours belong. In my own case, I had a successful interview and was handed a white paper ticked administrative processing and was told by the VO that they would contact me by email or phone in due course. Got their email 2 days after. They requested that I answer some questions with proofs. I guess I had a part of my data matched with someone they were looking for. And then the process went on and on. It was really crazy mehnn but I thank God. If you come out clean, you'll be granted the visa shikena. I rest my pen.

Most of them are because of their statement of account. Do you ask them how market? I can smell at least 10 years ban in the air.

I'd strongly suggest you put it in writing here as no one is an island of knowledge. You could gain immensely from other people's ideas as well. However, if you insist on calling, you can pm me. [quote author=Alfred2000 post=62764660]

Respect house,
I'm in dilemma
Should i write Dec 4 GRE or Dec 30th.
The closing date for submission of supporting documents in the school I applied to is Jan 10.

If I write DEC 4 that means I have one week to prepare

If I write DEC 30th wouldn't it be too late cos closing date is Jan 10th

Well I don't work with ETS but within 10 days your score should be in your school within US. How efficient your school is in sorting and profiling sent reports is what I don't know. Preparing for GRE within one week, you must be 'igi iwe" efiko. The one month should still give you breathing space to know the intricacies of the exam.

Good morNing people, I have a degree in Human Resource Management with some Certifications in Management and my problem right now is that Most schools require GRE and GMAT, and I can't write it presently due.to some reasons..

Besides I don't mind going for another Degree but I'm worried about the student Visa application and my questioNs are:

Will the embassy not be suspicious when you are applying for student visa with a Bachelor Degree admission letter while having a degree already?

Is there an aGE barrier? For example someone who is about 28-30 years of age going for another bachelor degree while having degree ?

Someone I met recently, told me if you are asked why going for another bsc despite the fact that you have a degree already, That one can easily respond by saying: I decided to go for another bachelor degree to augment my low cgpa because I could nt get an Msc admission with the low cgpa, besides going for another bsc degree in the u.s would make me have a solid background before stArting and an msc program.

Please, does the response above sound convincing?

And anyone that has list of Schools that are not strict with their requirement should please, drop it.

Thanks and God bless us all.

A visit to the embassy is an interview and as in all interviews you have to sell yourself well as the right man for the job or for the visa

read the above and ask IF someone tells you this . What stops you from thinking if he or she did poorly in Nigeria why wont he/ she do poorly in America or anywhere else.... poor grades are not a thing of pride and should never be said as if its a good thing or served as an advantage .

For future sake, things we fūcking don't want to hear from your transcripts.
Everybody before me was denied - why the fūck does everyone say this nonsense, yes we know you have now become a visa guru, but please keep this BS to your self

Remember the saying "anything that's worth doing is worth doing well ". I don't know about others but it's all part of the testimony,knowing u succeeded where others failed, knowing that God's favour singled u out above some people. In my case there were three people infront of me,a guy going for his masters in the US,a woman in her forties claiming she was going for a wedding and a family of five going for holidays. Everything checked out. They had travel experience to fill two passports,bank statements and they were really jovial with the VO,the student was grilled and even presented a bank statement. These three were denied and i wasn't. If I'm giving a testimony of God's favour without mentioning that he favored me above the people who went before me then what sort of testimony would that be?? I hope you understand. I speak for myself alone not others. BTW who's also going to ETSU for spring 2018?
