Pls gurus in the house

You don't need to appear again at the embassy but just mail your school for deferm and obtain a new I-20 and you are good to go

Naughtyvirgin:
I can't say if this is genuine or not but the reason stated which proposes that PMB asked visas not to be issued due to elections that are up coming seems awkward and invalid.

Not sure about elections, but I think he said somewhere he is not too happy about nigerians running away

But I may not totally agree because when PMB went to Paris he told them that they can't vote until they return to Nigeria.So one can infer he may actually want people to stay for elections.However,PMB's desire for people to stay may be unconnected with VISA denials...we can take a 1percent truth in it...

Yeap,when he went for the Paris summit.

Votes wey dem go rig again....well so as not to digress, i pray the genuine ones who intend to study gets their visas approved and hopefully someday we wont need to troop out of our country to a no man's land.

this is just wicked. What was your countenance like were you smiling and informal or you were serious and formal? What were you going to study and how much was the cost. Were you interviewed by the black woman?

Wait o, is it a crime to smile during an interview Haa

Visa denied at Lagos embassy yesterday;

Me: Good morning, how are you doing
VO: Good morning

VO: passport, i20
Me: passed

VO: why do you want to study in the US
Me: cos USA has one of the best educational system in the world

VO: what state is UB located
Me: Connecticut

VO: why UB
Me: UB has a center for career development which will help in elevating my career, has smart technology-equipped classrooms. Also, it gives the opportunity of a dual degree. I can run MBA program with it.

VO: why management science
This got me cause the course I'm going for is 'analytics and systems'. Though it's stated on the i20 that SEVIS calls it management science.

Me: It's 'analytics and systems'. It's stated on the i20 that sevis calls it management science. (trying to explain to him)

VO: blue paper

Open for constructive criticism and suggestions. My background is statistics.

Saying sevis calls it management science means you don't know the course you are going for. Business Analytics & Systems is under management science. You should have explained why you want to study management science with concentration in business analytics and systems. Well next time you see such difference in your i20, try to link it together and not put blames on sevis

I think your answers were too generic, especially why the USA? Look here for Kirusky4life transcript, it might inspire you.

You should include them

Afterall, you did the course(s)

As for the evaluation, it's going to fall within that range

I don't understand oooo they should start issuing visa to genuine at Lagos embassy biko

I tell u

Hmmmm, somebody is toying with the system. I booked an appointment for 24th December over a week ago and I went arranging some other projects outside Lagos, never checked my appointment scheduling page since. Now, I just logged in and see that my appointment has been shifted to 9th January 2019. I didn't get any notification to that effect and I just came back to Lagos yesterday night to come and prepare myself for Monday morning. My program starts on 10th January. This US embassy are starting to act funny/undemocratic and need to be checked before it's too late. They show no regard for us and I don't blame them because we really don't respect ourselves as a people.

Good afternoon great family,

How can i correct an error on ds160 form that I have filled, signed and submitted?
I made an error in that “WORK” section, the primary occupation aspect. I was suppose to select OTHERS but I selected BUSINESS. How can i correct this?

Hello house please in a bad state, my uncle that was supposed to sponsor me, called and said he doesn't have sufficient money again, so he can't release 6 his bank statement.... Trying not to worry but I'm down right now, eyes are swollen. Please what do i do can i use someone else? My interview is scheduled for 9th of January

Wooa, I am so sorry for that. But you know what? This is not the time to be down, you need to find an alternative as this is the only possible way for now. Do you have any other person close to you that may be of help?

YoungIncredible:
With the current high denial rate at the USA embassy of recent even when students demonstrated pure intention and some with full funding still getting denied.

Except you have another ulterior motive in America, a real student applicant who truly desire to further education should simply BOYCOTT the USA and try out other countries like Canada, Australia, New Zealand and some other better countries who will evaluate you based on your presented documents and not through "scammy" 2mins interview that will end up in rejection.

There are other countries with good educational system and will also offer PR after studies. All you need to do is extensive research.

Just look at the thread, for over 2 months, I could count up to 40 people who shared interview transcript, just 3 had an approval. I'm not talking about the ones who aren't bold enough to share their delayed transcript, not to talk of the ones outside nairaland.


It obvious that these people don't want us anymore. Even people on administrative processing with authentic bank statements are getting denied afterwards, then why should we continue to dash them 60k all in the name of re-applying?.

If you have been denied twice or thrice, bros, research other countries with good education system that will lead to PR if that's what you want. Like I said, other countries will judge you based on your documents. And even if you are denied, they will tell you the exact reason so that you will know what to work on.

Only the US will deny you with a generic blue paper, tell you that you are free to re-apply again. They will still re-deny you and still re-issue the same generic blue paper.



We know some people have made the whole thing difficult, but my people, US isn't a do or die affair. If they don't want you in their country, simply try another country who will gladly accept you.

u just said the truth....I was denied last week despite paying 60 percent of my tuition fees and my course was aeronautical/mechanical engineering in a school within top 50 public schools and I had good travel history...out of over 40 people that were interviewed,only one guy in from of me was granted visa,simply because he had great travel history to USA.its obvious USA and Canada doesn't want Nigerian students..i alerted the school and they asked me to reapply.i just told them I don't have any intention of going to USA after losing hope due to rate of denial.i asked them for a refund of my tuition fees.... I'm looking forward to furthering my masters in a European nation.

I don't want to discourage others here,but I advice aspiring applicants to look elsewhere instead of wasting their hard earned cash on US education/visa application

it was my first attempt tho

Ubah1:


Other countries you mentioned are not cheer givers in terms of scholarship and funding plus well recognized degree. Secondly, you will be asked to pay some percentage of your tuition fees in those countries before applying for visa and the tuition fees ain't cheap. USA schools made the process easy for many, that's why students are trooping in to USA. Also, getting visa in those countries you mentioned is not easy too. So there is no where it's easy. Keep trying for any one that works for you, that's all I can say.

Ur first 3 lines were superb but you failed to give alternative now that USA visa is harder than other countries the dude mentioned...mind u,other countries wouldnt deny u when u meet their criteria

Ayobami12345:
Today was good i should not say any other,the population at Lagos Embassy was crazy and yet only two was given in my presence based on the fact that they have been to USA before and a lady right in front of me was denied after she has been to USA and also UK three time and claming that she has two brothers.....Not scaring others but this people don dey SCAM US oooo now after all their questions and shit they will know say we are sorry.......The long and short of this story is that for now No history of you entering yankee before forget is Damn Slim but not scaring others ooo,wish una all the best

I think that's now the criteria of granting visa.the guy in front of me was the only one granted visa out of over 40 people that were interviewed b4 me...the guy told the VO he had been to USA before and even visited the school..the VO checked his system and verified his claims

Yes i have another option, but i already filled his name on my Ds160 form, so i don't know how to rectify that

You can fill a new DS160 and then update your 'appointment' profile (or page, cant recall precisely)
