Abacino007:
If one reschedule appointment what is the implication? Will I have to pay another visa fee?

Response please I am seriously down and confused because I don’t want to break the rules

Pls help me out...
Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 14 by Enasdan(m): 12:59pm On Dec 14, 2018
Abacino007:



That statement looks somehow. You can talk about your potential GA but I think you should dwell more on your financial capability of paying the fee even without the GA opportunity because you are yet to have it. Don’t give the impression that you are relying on it. Discuss more on what you have to sustain yourself for the second year. But if you have a letter to back up the claim that they will be give GA for your second year then you can state it that way. I hope this would help a little bit
thanks for your advice, but I don't have a valid letter to back it up, the school promise paid internship for international students for the second year,

Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 14 by Kirusky4life(f): 2:37pm On Dec 14, 2018
I had my interview on 4th December at Lagos Embassy.

V.O: Good Morning, Can I have your Passport and I.20
Me: I obliged.
V.O: What course are you going to study?
Me: Am going for my graduate studies in Computer science at TAMUC
V.O: Why Computer science:
Me: I did computer science as my under graduate course, during that time, I developed a penchant for programming. It has been something am very passionate about, so I decided to get an advance degree and specialized in the field.
V.O: How did you hear about the school?
Me: I was doing a research online on school that offers database administration as an option in computer science, TAMUC was one of the schools I came across.
V.O: Why do you want to specialize in Database administration?
Me: (I didn’t prepare for this, but I had to come up with something). Database insecurity is one of the major problems facing Nigeria at the moment, we hear every time about people’s account being hacked in and the issue of cyber-theft is not left out. All these challenges are cropping up because of the poor implementation of the database servers. I want to specialize in this area so that I can contribute to combating these acts.
V.O: Did you apply to other schools?
Me: I applied to three schools, MTSU, Illinois state university and TAMUC
V.O: Did they all admit you?
Me: YES
V.O: so why TAMUC?
Me: The computer science department at TAMUC has a research area that most interest me and can benefit Nigeria if well detected. That is on Database SQL Injection and The implementation of ACID property of a database. Also I was awarded $1000 scholarship which also qualifies me for in-state tuition.
V.O: What is SQL Injection?
Me: SQL Injection is a technique used by Database hackers to add their own SQL code to the database via website input thereby making the database work out of the normal ways and work as they intended.
V.O: (He types something that looks like forever and continued). How did you hear of these research?
Me: My course advisor told me about it during one of our conversations.
V.O: and what did they find out after the research?
Me: The research is still ongoing, which is why am keen to know more about it.
V.O: Did you write any standard test?
Me: Yes, I wrote TOEFL and GRE
V.O: Who is sponsoring your trip?
Me: My cousin
V.O: Do you have is statement of account?
Me: Yes. Passed it on.
V.O: (He looked at it and returned it, then started typing again and brought out a white paper, wrote something on it and returned it with my passport and I.20). Your scholarship is not reflecting on your sevis profile, update it and submit your evidence and passport to us via DHL. No need for you to come back here to submit. Go through the paper I give you and see what you have to do.
Me: Okay. Thank you sir

I just sent the updated I.20 today and the dhl said it will be delivered within 21 working days. Please any1 sent additional documents to the embassy recently, How long did it take to deliver it. The thought of that 21 days is killing. school starts on 10th January.

Hello friends, please, my school resumes 9th of January and the closest available date is 7th of January which I have chosen.

1. I want to write to the school to request for a latter allowing me to resume on a later date. Please what's the latest date permissible for resumption/entering the US without having issues at the POE. I intend to request the school allows me to resume like 16th (that's a week after normal semester start date). Hope this won't give issues at the POE. Meanwhile, I am steadily refreshing the site to see if any good Samaritan cancels his/her appointment so I jump at it.

Your advice please!

Not all schools require toelf and GRE
Timotee:


Most competitive programmes require the GRE. A few schools may waive the GRE but I will not advise you to apply to such schools. On the flip side, many good schools are now beginning to waive the TOEFL exam for candidates from Nigeria (e.g. Univ. of Arizona, Washington State Univ., Colorado State Univ., Texas A&M Univ at College Station, Univ. of Texas at Dallas, etc). It's easier to get a good school that waives the TOEFL test than get a good school that waives the GRE.

Could it be that there is a premium service pack for delivery whereas you paid for the normal courier package?

I mean a premium service will ensure you have your package delivered within 3 to 5 days.

Hello guys, I am a graduate of statistics with a third class degree. I guess getting admission into any US Post graduate program will be tough. That's why I have come here to seek for advise. How should I go about it?

Basically, there is an aspect of Statistics that you are good at. It could be Statistical Theory, Probabilistic Theory, Applied General Statistics, Design and Analysis of Experiment, or whatever field it is. Focus your search on schools that focus on this aspect. Write the GRE and do well on it, write good statement of purpose focusing on your strength and how the program would help achieve your dreams including other co-curricular activities you have engaged in to show you are well rounded. This will help to boost your profile and then apply to such schools.
I wish you the very best.

Nice interview transcript. Has DHL picked up the I-20 already? If not, 21 days is too long and I would suggest another courier instead.
