Type this on Google: US embassy Nigeria customer care, the first number you see is the number. You might want to call them right now cause they would soon leave office and you won't be able to contact them again until Monday

Thanks for your swift response.. So must it be paid before going to the appointment? Does the VO request to see SEVIS fee receipt??

Thanks once again


Brown2Green:


Not necessarily.

Stevenssen:

but you didn't actually study agriculture, did you?

For the benefit of everyone , from the 24th of June, Sevis fee will increase from $200 to $350.

Point I'm making is once it shows 'English Proficient' there is no need of requesting any letter.

Yes I do. Simply reply "I decided to study nursing because nurses are easily filed for"
You are most welcome.

Good morning lovely people. It's been a week i was denied visa at the US embassy in Abuja. To say i was devastated is an understatement. I thank God for the support system i have in terms of family and friends that encouraged me that all things will work together for my good. I had to come out here to get advice on how i went wrong. I applied to 6 schools, 5 admits and all for Masters in Public health. They offered me admission without funding. I reached out to them but there was no assurance i will be given a GA position. I decided to go for West Chester University, Pennsylvania and the total amount on my I-20 is $29,525. My aunt who resides in US is my sponsor. I prepared well for my interview and ensured my documents were complete. Below is my interview transcript on 24th May:

ME: Good morning
VO: Good morning, pass me your passport and I-20
ME: Sure
VO: Why did you choose this school?
ME: I chose this school because i'm interested in an ongoing research by Prof xxxx on xxxxxxx. Also, the school mandates it's MPH students to complete a 6 credits, 300 hours community service course called Bleep. ( The VO cuts in)
VO: What do you do?
ME: I'm a pharmacist working with xxxxxxxxx
VO: Who is your sponsor?
ME: My aunt by name xxxxxxxxx
VO: types for some seconds and handed a green paper to me, that it will explain my denial of Visa.

All these, didn't last up to 5 minutes. I was shocked because i expected questions on Why US? Why MPH? What are your plans after the MS program? Can i see your SOA? which she didn't ask me.
Please, where did i go wrong? Mind you, i didn't stutter cos i prepared well for this interview. My school starts in August and i don't know what to do.

Your points on why this school is not well articulated.
Why are you interested in the professor research?
The information you supplied does it tally with your DS-160?
Are there some questions in between that was asked by the VO that you couldn't remember or that you answered by talking toooo much?
Does your aunty have a clean travelling record?That's family history....

Abort! Abort!! Abort!!!
I was kidding oooo. I think you should search yourself, no one can answer that question for you but I could give you an example.
My friend decided to study nursing because when her father was terribly ill and admitted at the hospital, he was ignored by the nurses and eventually died. In that pain she vowed that she would become a nurse and the change she desires would begin with her...
This is not super story. My point is you need to find the answer for yourself, by yourself so when you are responding to the question, it would flow freely from within and not some memorized or generic gyitubglprdduzxcb!
I wish you well.

I went to the mountain to fortify myself for the task ahead. The atmosphere is charged, the angels of visa approvals are hovering around and there's an approved visa story with my name in it. Glory glory glory grin grin grin
Let's go get that visa!

Hi guys. A relative's visa interview is scheduled for June 4th. The initial closure date on the visa website was June 5th. Now that the FG has declared June 4th and 5th as public holidays, what's going to happen? Can he reschedule for a new date?

If there won't be consular activities that day, they'll mail your relative to reschedule for him/her. The person doesn't need to do the rescheduling, they'll fix a spot.

Good day all, I got my I20 today. How do I pay the Sevis fee?
Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 14 by Juzzywezzy(m): 11:50pm On May 31, 2019
Good evening everyone. Here’s my profile, I was refused F1 visa last year July in lag. It was my first time, I didn’t sit for any standardized test at that time, nor have I been outside Nigeria at that time all these the V. O at that time asked me tplus I stuttered a lot and wasn’t loud with my response also my SOA wasn’t in order at the time.

Fast forward to today, I am going for interview again this coming week.
My profile: sat for Toefl and GRE.
Traveled to another African country last year.
Got admitted to another school different from the the previous one! UNH now.
Also got some partial scholarship 20%
Remaining deficit =27706$
Course = sports management MS
I am 27.
I have a SOA from my uncle about 10.4m and a refrence letter from his company.



What could you suggest in my case below is my intended transcript.

Me:Good morning
V.O: good morning
Pass your pspt and i20 form.
Me: sure
VO: where are you going to?
Me: UNH for masters study in Sports mgt.
VO: how did you know about the school?
Me: An alumni told me about the school, and I discovered according to Princeton review it’s one of the top ranked universities that has an active research status in southern New England region.
VO: how many schools did you apply to?
Me: 5
VO:how many admits
Me: so far 3 admits, 1 reject and 1 pending
VO: did you write any test?
Me: yes GRE , TOEFL
VO: scores ?
Me: 284, 83
VO: why UNH?
Me: Apart from the partial scholarship, my course adviser Dr Ceyda Mumcu is keen to have me work with her research team she’s currently conducting a research in the area of sports facility management and this aligns with my undergraduate final year research work as a graduate of project management. So this will serve as a step for me!
VO: what will this course do for you?
Me: after completion when I must have garnered the required knowledge and professional skills, I will be working as a sports facility manager in Nigeria sports institution like the NFF, to help tackle problems of poor facility management and poor maintenance operations. Also in the long run I plan to establish a sports camp or recreational park where I can work to promote physical fitness among children and adults in my community.

VO: Tell me about your research Area?
Me: I will be focusing on the area of Sports Facility management. I will be working under supervision to deal on analysis of sports facility management and its impact on financial stability of sports institution.

VO: who is your sponsor?
Me: my uncle,
VO: what does he do?
Me: he owns so so which has branches in bla bla cities.
VO: how long has he been sponsoring
Me: since 2010 my undergraduate days.
VO: congratulations your visa is approved
Amen!

Please constructive criticism is welcome. Let me know what you guys think.
Gurus in the house please! Time2win, fairheart, Lagosismyhome, bracelum, Shawarma. I am sorry if I left anyone out it’s not intentional. God bless.

My heart goes out to everyone who got hurt in here today. I wish I could hug you right now; you didn't deserve to be "casualties" of a war of words that should never have begun in the first place, a war you neither saw coming nor was "prepared" to fight.
People often say "sticks and stones may break my bones but words would never hurt me". That's not true. Words spoken or written can hurt a lot.
If someone gets hit by a bullet, chances are they'd survive if they get swift medical attention. I mean they could undergo surgery and the bullet could be taken out, right?
But when words hit you, especially hurtful, harsh or bitter remarks, who do you run to? I mean surgeons can't stitch emotional wounds, they can't even see it, to start with.
You are the only one who knows how much it hurts and where exactly it hurts.
Sharwama believes words should be used to build people up and not tear them apart.
She wishes people would be more careful with their choice of words.
It's okay to call a spade a spade but HOW we call it, is also very important. No one has ever died from giving or receiving constructive criticism, maybe we could choose that more often. Maybe we could choose kindness more often. Maybe we could imagine walking in someone else's shoes more often...
Once again, my heart goes out to anyone who got hurt in here today. I'm so sorry. I see you, I wrote this for you my friend.
I hope this gets to you in time, I hope I'm not too late.
May the force be with you!

YES...A US CITIZEN can be ur sponsor. you'd only have to convince the VO as to why he/she is willing to foot your bills.
Documents required are mainly the SPONSORS STATEMENT OF ACCOUNT.
Your latter Q depends on the schools policy....If u are requested by the school to make tuition part payment. Then you.will...
if not required...No need.
