i would loved to be considered for this. i do actually meet ur requirements. considering a Phd at NMSC. how do i forward my academic background to you

arTiculaTe01:
I noticed something awkward here...

Even after bringing to the notice of the VO that full funding (+stipends) was offered, the VO still went on to ask "who is your sponsor"?

Is that normal?

Yes, it's normal, with funding, there might still be some deficits in your i20. Even with no deficit, the VO can still ask who your sponsor is because you'd still need funds to book flight and money to settle down before the stipends start kicking in.

Please I’m interested sir. Can I pm you?

Dear All,

Trust you are doing good. Please how best can I get waiver for English and GRE test for Ph.D.

Got:B.Sc Urban and regional Planning
M.Sc by research in view Civil and Env. Engineering.

1 book chapter published.
2 Review Articles -under review 6.1 and 8.1 ISI impact factor journal
4 Experimental still writing and to be published in high impact factor as well.

Hello all, i’ve been an observer for quite a while.I have been denied twice,I’m weighing my options and wondering if I should reapply.
On both occasions, no documents were checked.
Tuition is $35k no funding
Sponsor: fiancé
I’m beginning to feel the sponsor might be the issue, because that’s usually the last question.

Why are you dodging the necessary requirements? Even if you find schools, you might be asked at the embassy to prove you are truly a genuine student. @Shams040, go mand write those exams.

Hello all, i’ve been an observer for quite a while.
I have admission to study MBA at University of Illinois. I have been denied twice,I’m weighing my options and wondering if I should reapply.
On both occasions, no documents were checked.
Tuition is $35k no funding
Sponsor: fiancé
I’m beginning to feel the sponsor might be the issue, because that’s usually the last question. Now my Dad is willing to sponsor me (I didn’t involve my parents until the second denial), so I’m considering using my Dad now or both of them.
My concern: would this be a red flag?
Changing my sponsor

Why don't you provide the transcript of your interview for proper guidance?

Good morning guys.

Do they still allow applicants to bring their passport photo to the embassy if they were unable to upload the photo prior to submission of DS-160?

PM me

Boss i did try PM u directly but its not working

£35k with no funding has a very high chance of falling out of status because that money is no joke in naira....then couple with the fact that the sponsor is Fiance.... it very hard to convince a Vo that you won't fall out of status...a parent would definitely be more credible or target a school with no funding

Thank you, I’ll do that in a bit

Why are you hiding your school. Do you realise your school might have been the red flag and not providing the necessary details will not give people the full details to advice you.

I sent you a mail.

Walspring:
It’s been a while my people here both old and new and also to those who contacted me via email many weeks or months ago asking about discounted offer for TOEFL TEST and GRE TEST and I promised to notify them if I hear from the benevolent guys, am pleased to announce that is available but limited offer and for those who knew within them they can’t afford all the cost but wants to write it to get GA or TA or RA or scholarship.

Kindly notify me back and I will reply even with my busy schedules.
