And I’m sure you’ll be going to that second interview armed with “favor” and God’s “grace”, despite your willingness to lie and cheat?

My brother I go finish the gist when coast clear..

dreambound:

You didn't finish the gist

I don’t understand lie and cheat how? There is no lie there. I am using my other email and all my details will still be the same. Just figured it’s an opportunity I have before my sponsor will change is mind. And I plan to finish my master before getting married or else my husband will not Alli me. So it’s sensible

So what did you say is stopping you from posting your transcript??

It doesn’t pick available dates via your email tho, remember you have to answer the question “have you recently been denied/applied for an American visa” the answer to that decides dates to pick or not

smh you think its just tied to email? don't bother wasting your time, you will most likely be denied again

The consulate does not allow those who have been recently denied a visa immediately set up another appointment for a reason... there are others behind you who have not been granted their first interview.

Using a different email address to set up another account so you can deceitfully circumvent this system is cheating... I understand as a Nigerian that is a foreign concept to you.

If your husband won’t let you achieve your goals simply because he married you then that’s slavery, not a marriage.

No need to plead.

You brought up your marriage, not me. You used it to justify cheating, not me. So it’s fair game.

Important information

Sevis fee will be increased from $200 to $350 from Monday, June 24 2019.

Anyone that needs to pay should try and pay before that date.

All the best everyone.

I only asked a question.. you concluded it was cheating. You could have explained it better. Any who, points taken. Thanks

House, is it too late for her to request an emergency date?

Sorry about that. We are here to help ourselves and we all learn from the experience of others.
So don't feel bad. You'll be surprised what you learn when you post your transcript.

See en , for those who have interview next week.....u see that question " How did u hear about this school?"
...Avoid that part that that u heard from an alumni, even if u must say so..be sure to let the VO know the alumni is back to Nigeria and working.
Stick to the fact that you did personal research and of a truth do your personal research.

P thing is shun the tension....stay confident.I saw a guy today..he was asked why this school?
Next thing he was blank...afterwards what we heard was that because dey have professional lecturers...The VO had to stop him and explained to him that every university lecturer is a professional.


Staying confident is key...

You don drop your transcript?

PLEASE DOES WES ACCEPT COMBINED O’LEVEL FOR UNIVERSITY DEGREE EVALUATION?

Me: Good morning
VO- good morning

VO- can I have your passport
Pass and your 1-20
Me: I did

VO: how many times have you been to the US?
Me: 3 times
VO: what was the longest you stayed ?
Me: about 4 weeks


Where do you work right now?
I mentioned the name of the company .
She signaled to me to repeat. Which I did. I guess she’ was trying to confirm what was on my DS-160.

VO: how long have you been working there?
Me: A year and some months



VO: how did you know about the school?
Me: it was highly recommended by my uncle who happens to be my sponsor.
I also did more online research about it. I was also able to visit the school on one of my visits.

VO: Did you pick any other sch?
Me: yes . University of Texas in Dallas

VO: what made you go with this school (University of Dallas)
Me: The recommendation from my Uncle. They offer a course I want to study Information Technology and management which happens to have a detailed course content that Aligns with my career goals.



Types for a bit with a neutral facial expression. Probably Satisfied with my answers

I think I relaxed at this point
She raised her head and asked

Why this course ?

I was honestly caught unaware. I wanted to speak then I stuttered and I started again.
I responded : The tech industry in Nigeria is a booming sector . After i obtain my MSc in Information Technology, coupled with my Bsc in Computer Science and the work experience I have gathered as a Data analyst , I would be equipped with more knowledge and experience bla bla. ( honestly at this point I lost composure )
To be qualified and fit to work in reputable organizations and also my contribute to my uncles tech company ... bla bla

She asked the question again
Why this course?

I had to find how to repeat myself but I know and remember that I didn’t repeat what I said earlier word for word ( and it’s very possible that what I said earlier wasn’t satisfactory, hence her reason for asking again)

She then interrupted and asked

What companies are you looking to work in when you return ; I said Microsoft, Intel, ( I feel like I should have mentioned just one organization) to make it seem like there’s a certain organization and post I’m looking to go after when I return with my MSC

VO : on your last trip to the US did you stay with your Uncle . I said Yes . She was the one that used her mouth to say UNCLE ( and I actually remembered that I’ve been asked this question either on my DS-160 for my B1/B2 or at the point of entry during one of my visits to the US and it has always been my Aunty)
I now said and also , my AUnty . We are also related. In the most hasty tone ever
