Stevenssen:

Your gre score will help you determine the schools to apply to. You have to write the exam first because you will also use your scores to apply to the schools.

As for your wes, use their online conversion tool https://applications.wes.org/igpa-calculator/


I'm much grateful sir. I wouldn't know maybe it the combination of the two exams TOEFL and GRE that will be helpful for me in getting scholarship or GRE alone. Please I need advice on this. My course is MBA with concentration in Marketing or Operation Research

Apply for an emergency date on the site. Explain to them the reason you need the emergency date, also attach a copy of your signed i20 and SEVIS payment confirmation.


Thank you very much bro. I will do that immediately. Hope writing that to help me get enough time for preparation and settling down before program starts it is a tenable reason?

For those of you applying to BGSU, kindly look forward to their January 7th online program. Participants application fee would be waived.. I participated last month and I saved me some bucks.

Goodluck

Of course, you should write the two exams to improve your chances.
MBA generally requires higher TOEFL scores than most courses, so don't take TOEFL lightly.

I wrote IELTS last year but my score was 6.0 overal. Is it sufficient to secure an admission with funding?

That's just a language test. Go for GRE if interested in funding.

Hello all,

I have been a silent reader on this thread and I really appreciate your individual contributions.

However, my F-1 visa was delayed yesterday at abuja consulate office. My school is resuming 13th of January 2020 and I wish to reapply as soon as possible.


When do you I need start filling a new ds-160, I was told i can only reschedule after three days. Please do I need to start a new ds-160 now and pay for a new visa fee so I can easily reschedule on that Friday. Friday is the third date which I am eligible to book an appointment.


Please i need your individual advise

Drop your trancripts so that it can be critiqued.

Let me ask you one question: what would have changed in your application next time you are interviewed?

Please if schools say average GPA is 3.5 and you have 3.4 does that mean you are not qualify for admission?

3.5 over what? you have 3.4 over what? There are two grade systems, the one we use in Nigeria and the one the US uses. You can use WES conversion to convert to the 4.0 scale
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 15 by Geojnr(m): 11:44am On Dec 11, 2019
White lady

VO: have you been to the US?
me: No

VO: why are you going to the US
Me: I am going to the US for a masters degree in mechanical engineering.

VO: why this School?
Me: apart from being affordable, they have the best research lab which would be an enabling environment to gain quality knowledge in enhancing my skills

VO: what do you do currently?
Me: I work as a technician at xxxxxx

Vo: Who is your sponsor?
me: my aunt

Vo:What does she do?
Me: she is a senior legal advisor at xxxxxx

VO: do you have any relation in the US?
Me: No

VO: sorry you're not eligible blah blah

I think I wasn't audience enough, then in filling my ds-160 I used myself as the one paying for the trip and also I didn't include my current job there.

This changes I intend to make


Please I need your advise, should I start filling my ds -160 now? So as to schedule when the time frame is due

Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 15 by Picricchem: 1:10pm On Dec 11, 2019
Thanks for the update. You didnt respond to my mail. I sent my documents as requested.

kallowdean:
UPDATE:

I received almost 60 emails and I tried my possible best to respond to almost everyone, even within my busy schedule.
I faced so many challenges as many entries/applicants/students failed to provide the actual details of documents I had initially requested.

NOTE:
**There is a difference between WES Credential Report and WES iGPA calculator ( I did NOT request for an iGPA)
**The GRE is sufficient irrespective of the score, but many gave me a score where I could not even see their names.
**This assist is for STEM students
**The Application fee must NOT exceed $60. I expect students to have up to 3 different college choices.

Feedback:
FOR NOW: I have only selected 2 person(s) but will reach out to them before Xmas to finalize the login and pay their application fees.

Other STEM students having a complete authentic WES report and GRE score may still reach out to me.

Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 15 by morgang(m): 1:16pm On Dec 11, 2019
I know I have a long way to go, but here is my profile.

Session- Fall admission
Undergraduate GPA: 3.28/4 (Political science)
GRE- 318 (verbal- 156 quantitative- 162 AWA- 3.5/6)
Intended course of study- M.A Political science

Schools-
George Washington University
University of Kansas
Kansas state university
Cleveland state university
Georgia state university
Bowling Greene state university
Texas tech university

Toefl is out of my interest for now.. Although the afore listed schools don’t require English proficiency for a degree earned in Nigeria... not a so good GRE score, but hope I stand a better chance for funding ? Kindly help recommend schools with promising leads for funding and other interesting packages for international students.

Thanks
