Hello house,
I deferred my admission to fall 2026, I was advised by the course representative to defer to fall 2026 in order to to increase my chances of retaining my funding . My MRV expires in April 2026, when can I possibly be on the look out for dates taking into consideration the visa validity thing and when I can enter the US for the resumption in August.

Thank you for your input, I have a very little deficit, which I plan to self fund already on my i20. Is it advisable to add up funds to my bank statement in case the VO wants to see it?


Not really. Health insurance is not a mandatory requirement for the F1 visa itself but having adequate health insurance is important for you on campus .

** Your school takes it more serious (perhaps they dont want litigation as a result of death or illness of foreign students on campus) and wants you or your sponsor to take it as one of your arrival plans.

That being said, the consular on seeing that on your Form I-20 wll expects a higher POF from you or whoever is funding you. 👍[/quote]

Hello everyone, there’s a remark on my i20 about my needing health insurance. Can questions arise from this remark during my interview?

Hello everyone, please who got admitted into Kansas state university how did you go about the vaccination documents (TB etc). I would like to also like to know anything I can do about accommodation.

Hello everyone, please how can I utilize the part of explaining why I was previously denied in the DS160 to my advantage.

Thank you very much.


Hey 🤠

1. Yes it's possible but it depends on your kind of card. Why not visit your bank physically for clear inquiry?

2. There are also virtual cards through apps which you can purchase solely for the payment of international application fees. Your bank staffs can also provide you with further details of this.

3. If your application fees is above $100 you may ask the school for account transfer . Few schools accepts bank transfer of application fees from $100 upward.

There's God. Don't give up .

Thank you.

Hello house, if one has two sponsors ( husband/mum) how will they be mentioned on the Ds160 because on the 120 their names are written, sponsorship is not indicated as family funds. And it's just one space for the sponsor on the DS 160.

Hello house, who has been admitted to East Tennessee state she and gotten a tuition scholarship, how did you go about it. Please any contribution is appreciated.

Hello everyone,can someone pls suggest schools that he or she knows gives/ has masters degree funding for IT related courses like data analytics, management information systems, information technology etc… I appreciate your responses… I am also doing some research on possible schools

@ everyone, how does someone answer the question
" Why do you think this is the best time to go for your masters"

While trying to book an appointment, I didn't get to see the option Regular or Previously denied to choose from, I went ahead and picked the date I saw. My appointment carries Regular. Who has experienced this?

Greenpoint park- no animals but free and they'll enjoy the landscape and swings for kids.
Check wikideals for deals on zoos and co. There'll be a lot now because of school breaks


Thanks so much , I appreciate.

I believe so. The rule will be "Cut your coat according to your size"
If they are tourists, then they should explore low-budget places to visit such as Iziko museum, Zeits museum is free for Africans with ID card on Weds. Table mountain experience is not cheap so they need to prioritize their sightseeing. Feeding and movement should come first since accommodation is sorted. If this money is including shopping then they need to set budget boundaries. All in all, the money is reasonable.

Oh, thanks alot, seems you have good knowledge about there. please which child friendly place can they visit with their child, the child like animals.

Hello everyone , a friend needs help urgently please.

Hello everyone, if someone defers admission from fall to spring, will a new admission letter be issued? If the SEVIS payment is not more than a year hope no issue. Again can circumstances change regarding funding?

Lagos high commission.

Please I would love to know if truly taag Angola won’t allow one to fly because I already have ticket booked for 6th of June which is on Tuesday


I already booked with them before I saw nasty reviews on net from customers. I just hope I'd be lucky to get a nice experience this time. I don't think Taag Angola flies on Fridays.

In most cases, sevis name for your course is what reflects on your i20. Eg my course is Exceptional Learning concentration on Applied behavioural Analysis but Education is what reflected in my i20. My course in education department and that is the general sevis name for my course.
VO asked why PhD in Education, I told her all about Exceptional Learning in relation to education

Thank you for your input.

There is no way the program you are going to study will not be captured on your i-20.

If it's not in the i-20 the school send to you, contact the school immediately and have them correct it.

Alright thanks

Hello everyone, on the 120 form will the person's concentration ( master's program) reflect? What if it is not indicated how does one defend this if asked during the interview?

Does it operate in Nigeria?

Finally got my passport after missing my US interview. Please who can help with affordable airlines Lagos to Capetown.

Hello house any early date for Lagos today?

@everone, what does this message imply" your application has been assessed by the south African high commission Lagos and is being returned to ...."

It's not an oversight.

That is the SEVIS name of the course your friend is going to study. It's not an issue at all. Every course in any University in the US is attached to a course code/name in the SEVIS system.

Thanks TEMI🙏

@ everyone, my friend applied for Master's in Computer information systems, but when issued her 120 the major written was Computer information systems security/auditing/ Information assurance. Is this an oversight from the school ?any explanation for this.
