MackyNaija: Oga Macky! You being the mc of an event means you must've mastered the art of speaking through your nose. Please how did you cope with the accent and all. Even though I got a decent speaking score in TOEFL, I found out that whenever I call grad cords, they don't find me audible enough. |

RexCheeng:I naturally do not have 'an accent acquired through any Nigerian language', I deh try even though I no be ajebo. I have remained normal, I don't get conscious of being 'too correct', I speak in clear English, ensure my tenses and grammar are correct and don't apply phonetics - maybe in 5 to 10 years time something might change. |

MackyNaija there are some questions I'm gonna throw at you and please I want you to answer yo the best of your knowledge. - After coming in with my F1 then I don't go to school for the first semester, and I go looking for a job what are the possibilities of me getting a job? - Or I go to school get my Student ID and I stop going to for that semester to work and head to school the following semester, what are the precautions? - Is it mandatory to contact USCIS before I can work outside my school jurisdiction? 1 Like |

Dremca: I'll prefer MackyNaija or anyone who's also schooling in the US. I believe opportunities shouldn't be misused and they should used wisely without causing harm to yourself or anyone? 1 Like |

MackyNaija there are some questions I'm gonna throw at you and please I want you to answer yo the best of your knowledge.Sorry, I don't understand what you are talking about. - Or I go to school get my Student ID and I stop going to for that semester to work and head to school the following semester, what are the precautions?I still don't understand what you are talking about. - Is it mandatory to contact USCIS before I can work outside my school jurisdiction?The F1 visa terms state that you will come into the US, go to school and do only on-campus jobs. If you apply for work authorization based on 'economic hardship' and present strong evidence, you can be approved and can legally work off-campus. You should have spent 2 semesters and have been in active student status. 6 Likes 2 Shares |

Wiseoldman: Check your school site they should have an off campus, and cost varies due to location, but for a single room for your self have $400-$600/month and ensure you look for a furnished apartment it's better so you avoid the cost of buying mattress, bed and furniture. You'd just spend cash on utensils. And you'd pay a security deposit between $200-$400. The security deposit is refundable though. It'll be paid back to you when you leave the apartment and all is intact. |

Re: Naija to Yankee Thoughts And Experiences by Nobody: 8:56pm On May 17, 2018 |
DavidLoves: most US universities ask for TOEFL as compared to IELTS. i can't say on the level of difficulty between both. You know exam difficulty/simplicity is relative, what might be easy for you might be difficult for me all the best man |

MackyNaija: I recently got admission to tamuk and i literally couldn't believe i stumbled on this gem of a thread by you. You've exhausted a very wide range of Valuable experiences and opinions. It's incredible. I have a question I wasn't given an out-of-state tuition waiver but you made mention it is still possible to get one upon arrival, depending on how you pressure the office of graduate school. Can you detail that a bit? You made |

Heisenberglos: Bro did u write GRE also u could write to grad cord... didn't get the in-state tution waiver immediately after addmission was offered but i just got the offer not long ago. |
Re: Naija to Yankee Thoughts And Experiences by Heisenberglos: 8:39pm On May 18, 2018 |
Geedhey: That's cool. Did you You personally write to your grad coordinator and recieve an out-of-state tuition waiver? |
Re: Naija to Yankee Thoughts And Experiences by Geedhey(m): 10:02pm On May 18, 2018 |
Heisenberglos:I did not write but i asked why I wasn't offered when I called admission office to enquire about my status |
Re: Naija to Yankee Thoughts And Experiences by Heisenberglos: 5:08am On May 19, 2018 |
Geedhey: Alright. I've written to my grad coordinator *fingers crossed* |
Re: Naija to Yankee Thoughts And Experiences by Heisenberglos: 11:13pm On May 19, 2018 |
Geedhey: So after you aaked them, they granted you? I'd assume you have an above 300 gre score? I asked the admission dept too, the lady told me my gre score didn't qualify me. |
Re: Naija to Yankee Thoughts And Experiences by Geedhey(m): 11:58pm On May 19, 2018 |
Heisenberglos:GRE score 300.. they just told me they have reviewed and if I qualify for any of the aid I will be given as at then I was not offered... so I didn't think about it until I saw it surprisingly so just hope it migh land never say never |
