Tohlou:
To my best knowledge I think it’s not necessary but you can take it along just in case. No VO will take your sponsor letter.
Another advice take all your documents you have in this life as you can’t tell which you will be needing really.
Best of luck

This is utterly incorrect. Someone's original copy of a sponsor letter was taken and not returned by a VO. Its advisable to take the original and a photocopy.

Ubah1:
It depends on the course. I may mention some schools and they might not have your course. Try lousiana state university, embry riddle aeronautical university,Prescott, university of maryland, Baltimore but you have to mail the graduate coordinator and ask for application fee waiver

OK thanks, Nwanne m
The course I intend going for is masters in economics or agricultural economics.
Thanks

US embassy don't stamp passport for denied f1 visa

thanks, but when an applicant have been refused a visa before, when reapplying in his new DS-160 form, in asking the question have you denied an US visa, what should be answer,

The answer is quite obvious. If you are planning to fill in NO, I strongly advise you not to do so because you will be denied again for lying. Just fill in YES and it is very possible the consular officer will not ask you about the previous denial during the new interview.

I quoted your post and I got banned too lol..

Was thinking...
I think u shouldn't ve led the vo on with the question, u sounded like u prepared a transcript for him n wanted him to follow it. I guess that's why he asked if u had a letter from em. Sounds like he's used to seeing that pattern n Would ve exerted a kind of negative vibe towards u. I'd love to hear other people's comment too sha.

Not condemning, just feel u can also work on that towards yr next interview.

mayd16:
Good morning guys,
Visa Delayed this morning 7am

Firstly i will say there should be no discrimination about type of schools, i got plenty condemnation for picking a community college or going for an associate degree, so far you can defend your choice of degree ko matter. My interview was smooth until my past hunted me due to agent assistance the last time.

And also dont give anybody any document at the USA embassy gate until you enter.

Transcript:

Me:Good morning ma
Vo: Good morning, pass me your passport and i20
Me: here they are
Vo:where are you going
Me: Jamestown Community College Newyork
Vo: Tell me about your program
Me: I am going for an associate degree in Network and system administration, which is a 30credit unit with 9credit electives and 21core course
Vo cuts in ok.....while nodding
Me: Do you want me to tell what this program will do for me?
Vo: sure go on, nodding
Me: After the successful completion of this course i would be taking a promotion seat back at my place of work.
Vo: oh you already have a study leave
Me: yes
Vo: Can i see a letter showing there support
Me: here you have it ma(passed the letter)
Vo: nodding head, why are they sponsoring you
Me: i have been ablebto change the hospital operation by introducing hospital software bla bla


Now here is my Bleep up

Vo: do you have friends and family in the US
Me: No ma’am
Vo: but you were here the last time you going to visit your sister
Me: i went through an agent who messed my application up
Vo: so do you have a sister in the us
Me: yes ma
Vo: but you said you dont have
Me: I thought you said friends
Vo: i mean family, what does she do
Me: shes a nurse
Vo: (in pity face) sorry at this time bla bla bla blue paper


Issues:
I had gone through an agent for a visiting visa,(the agent worked everything out) but this time i did it my self but in my ds-160form where they asked do i have any relatives i selected no

Should i differ my application and put yes or reapply again before resumption.

Note : he will request for money to release the previous information given to me last year
