You should talk more about your GPA than the class of your degree especially when it’s related to studying in America. Your GPA and your last 2 years where you did your core courses are what matter

Hello guys, if i was self funding myself for my program, with bank statements showing more than enough funds, would this affect my chance in anyway?

Employment history and maybe age matter a lot in these situation if you don’t have funding. If you checked these two, you are good to go.

Thank you.

Thank you.

I presume that you're an F1 student, so you should fill in I20. DS190 is for J1 students I think.

Still waiting for some advice


Yes it makes you appear as a potential immigrant but you can overcome with some other home ties, like you spouse and/or children (if you are married), a good job waiting for you to come back (maybe with promotion), a business you run and so on.
In short, there's no law that says you cant use your bro based in the US, you just need to prove home ties

Good day house! I've been follower of this thread and I must say that it has been educating, all thanks to everyone of you contributing his/her little idea. I'm awaiting my interview appointment at Lagos consulate. In the meantime, I'm kinda confused about the amount of money available in my sponsor's SOA although it was approved by my school.

The total estimated average cost is $25,219
While the available balance on my sponsor's SOA is $27,880.
I don't have any scholarship.
Please what are my chances at the interview with this funding?? Or do I have to print an updated SOA showing a higher available balance even if it's not going to reflect on my i-20 since I've received it already??

Suggestions please. Thanks and God bless�

He has said it all. US system doesn't use class but grades. You have to evaluate your transcript to 4.0 us scale to know where you belong.

Also, funding depends on your proposed school and field of study. Generally, STEM fields have higher funding rates than other fields.

Lastly, mail your graduate or program coordinator of the proposed schools to enquire about funding.

P.S. if at all you will get funding, it cannot be a FULL FUNDING because the higher graders aren't even getting it all.

Warm regards.

I think the fund is too small. You dont have any funding from the school and you can only show just a teeny little over one year's estimate. Do you think its enough to convince a consular? Secondly, who is your sponspor? If it is uncle or other relation, how do you justify an uncle giving you all the money in his account for studying? Please mull over these

1. Yes, many schools waived the GRE while some still insist on it

2. Yes you have a good GPA, but I think there is a separate procedure for applying to pharmaceutical courses for a masters degree. I am not quite certain. Do more research.

3. Your age is okay
