Yes. You can send it for free as fax. Pay for the evaluation, get your reference number and you're good to go.

The reference number is very important, if you send anything without it, it's a waste of money and time.

Best!

you can use hellofax (google it up) to fax your certificate/statement of result. make sure you use the right fax number . WES US fax number is different from WES Canada.

So for those who have had their Visas approved and are looking to book a flight. There is this App that's gives students discounted prices for flights and hotels. You will need to upload your Visa and admission letter.
The name is STUDENT UNIVERSE.
You can find it on Apple store and Play Store.
Thank me later

Shout out to everyone on here. I pray you get positive outcomes from your respective interviews. I used this site 7 years ago and got my F-1 visa. Stay positive and believe in yourself. One great advice, have a plan for life after school. It is very important not to wait till the last minute.

PS: Anybody coming to Michigan? There are loads of good schools there.

Hi
I sent you a PM

Is the $8k the total deficit i.e (tuition + living expenses) or the tuition deficit only?

Hey guys, my Visa was approved this morning at the Lagos consulate. Here is my transcript

VO:good morning
Me:good morning

VO: pass your i20 and passport
Me: *hands it over*

VO: do you have any relatives in the United States?
Me: yes, my sister

VO: where does she stay
Me: I mentioned the name of the state

VO: what does she do
Me: she's a student

VO: why did you choose to go to Mcneese
Me: Mcneese state university has an abundance of school spirit including various campus activities to choose from
I noticed she was shaking her head so I stopped talking

VO: you haven't answered my question
Me: the department of biology at Mcneese State University advances student knowledge through a wide range of opportunities to enter the work force or continue their education
She was still shaking her head, so I started shaking

VO: we know that, I need a specific reason
I got really scared so I started blabbing along the lines of "it has the technological and reseach facilities that will aid my learning"
She still continued to shake her head

VO: all schools in the United States do that, I haven't heard your reason for picking this school
Me: Mcneese gave me the highest scholarship which is why I chose to go there
Then, she nodded

VO: that is what I wanted to hear. So, who will be sponsoring your education
Me: my mom

VO: what does she do
Me: she's an accountant that works with XYZ company

VO: can I see her bank statement
Me: sure
This is where my heart was beating frantically because the money there wasn't up to the estimation of my fees but that was the best my mom could do

VO: does she have other bank accounts
Me: yes, she does

Vo: she just smiled and said "come and pick your Visa in 3 days time"
I was literally crying on the spot. I couldn't stop saying "thank you ma" because everyone who went before was denied but I didn't lose hope
So, all in all, thank you guys. This thread has been nothing but helpful to me and I hope others will benefit from this thread

So, they denied my Visa today in Lagos.

Don't bother asking about transcript. I'm not refiring on the course and School.

So, I figured the song here is the way to go (Funding is the New Ivy)... And I think the thing about Masters that can be done online is a thing too and Aunty/Uncle funding is becoming a no no... He didn't even ask for SOA.

So... I'm starting all over again... I wish I knew this page before I started...

Please....Sharwama, Lagosismyhome and anyone to put me thru how to go about funding... I will be glad..

The problem isn't funding from your uncle/aunt......anyone can fund your studies if you're able to give a reasonable explanation as to why the person is funding your studies.......the problem is the fact that you're doing a course that can 100% be done online and without full funding from the school.

I am really sorry about your denial, my heart goes out to you. I will advise you to take a couple of days/weeks off and cool off.
Then we can restrategize and target fall 2020. You would have to deeply reflect on your choice of course, if you want to proceed with that, you would have to sit for standardised tests if you haven't, and then we can target great schools that are generous with funding for your intended course.
Forgive yourself for your past mistakes, it wasn't your fault. You are wiser now, you know better now, you can right this wrong, you will rise from the ashes.
For now, just breathe my friend and breathe some more.
