Spring2019:


Me I already said I will stop coming to nairaland as from Friday o. At least I have paid my dues, I av read each and every transcript from part 3-14. I am even still around to see if there's going to be any transcript this week. Once it's Friday me I Don go o
All these denied, delayed left and right would only be giving someone negative vibes although that's a reminder that it's no child's play and you have to do your best

Bruh we are together o... mine is even as from 10pm today

Predstan:
Can I Appear at the US embassy with another I-20 of a different school with a Fully Funded G.A. Position 6 month after being denied twice? What would have changed is the Graduate assistantship position. Is that enough to convince the VO?

More than enough. It could sell your story well if you use it to your advantage.

I think its high time the US embassy stopped requiring folks to go for physical interviews. they should revert to some points based system like the Canadians; submit all your documents, they process and vet them, and get back to you pronto!. All the circus show that goes on at Walter carrington is dehumanizing biko.

What is the best way to prove home ties, if the current company you work with isn't related to the degree program you are going for. Will it be a red flag if i tell theVO I'll be coming back to get a job, or I must have the job at hand before traveling

To get adequate ideas, what is your profile? What do you do? What program are you going for?

A lot is caused by our people as well.... the fake unspoken is high coupled with the way politicans have destroyed the economy that pushing people to find any way for a better life . It bound to have a ripple effect .

Yet we clap hands and praise their stolen wealth. In a normal country should Atiku or Buhari be given a second chance

That been said Us visa was never easy . They might have relaxed a bit and even allowed so many women give birth there and tightening up now but it never been easy

very true.. never knew of the birth situation

EZEIGBO1OFIMO:

very true.. never knew of the birth situation

Even giving birth , initally our people start to abuse it because we must abuse and spoil things for others. Many will give birth and not pay until the embassy became very serious about cleared balances and receipt then our people behave themselves small ....

that been said I still blame politicians for this mess. Until we start holding them accountable no change is coming. We make noise on social media a lot but then it ends there .... And then secondly the change starts from me and you and every other person

I sent you an email. Am still expecting your reply.

Thank you

Then, there is a relationship between your first degree and the MS you are going for. Any other concern?

Honestly Atiku shouldn't campaign again to rule Nigeria, a different person would have been better.

1, I haven't seen anyone here going for the same degree so it gets me a little bit worried lol. Regarding home ties, below is what i have prepared to say if asked what are my plans after my degree. I'm still compiling my transcripts.

After my masters degree, I'll be coming back to Nigeria to work with Nema (National Emergency Agency) and also partner with a NGO, and I am currently working on a project that i will submit has a proposal to the agency, which will contribute to the emergency preparedness of every citizen in my country.

Is that okay?

Hello guys, Please I need some advice.
First, I have gone for interview before, was placed on Administrative processing but was later denied. I felt maybe it was because of my statement. It was my Uncle's and it had the required minimum amount and a few more millions. required was 12m. I went with 16m.

I felt maybe they wanted to see more money. My interview is next month. I plan on adding my sister as my sponsor including my uncle. I am also thinking about getting another uncle of mine involved.

My question is. Will adding My 2nd uncle affect my chances or should I add only my sister?

Please I need advice from you guys.

Thanks

Which kind wahala be this na
I wan dey go there now until I saw that... Mhen. It's getting messier day after day. God dey!!!

For masters you must have first class or 4.0+ cgpa and they selected university also, you can not just go there that you are a graduate of a school they are not in support.

please gurus help a poor boy oooo. I applied for an expedited date but I was denied. Please what can I do to get a date earlier than the one I have picked before which is January 4th. My school is resuming on January 10th and we on GTA are told to be in school by 7th of January.

Please what can I do

Good day house. I want to apply for Graduate assistantship/Graduate teaching assistantship/Graduate research assistantship position and I have been told to submit my resume but that there are just few positions for the spring semester. Please how do I put in a competitive application to help me secure a position.
Thank you

Wealth7:


Ooh okay thanks ...Buh honestly, I really don’t see how that’s gonna be feasible consedring the amount of people that applies for visa daily. Best of luck to future applicants

It is no difficult task. All they have to do is batch per bank.

Gloryemo:

hmmmm, but why should it be so hard? people want a better standard of education and after putting all the necessary efforts, they get denied.. not so fair to be honest.

Does America owe anyone their Visa? It is for each applicant to put in his/her best and hope s/he is granted the visa.

Hello house, how should a sponsor letter be, like the statement and content of the letter, kindly assist with a response

Let someone not in Nigeria do it for you (UK or US....)

How often do you see a diamond? Rarely! Your program is cool. Just prepare well. As for the proposed transcript, it is cool and we can fine tune it. Anymore issue, you can write to me.

You have to find someone who will go to Bank of America and make the payment. Look for someone here, if you can't find any, you can write to me. I can help out.

Well, what you read here is exactly what you will see at the embassy. If you have not done any interviews before, please read the posts here. It will prepare you well for the interview. It depends on you though. But i think its better to overwhelmed here than at the embassy.
