Only if you know that the chance of getting student visa as a grad student is higher than as an undergrad, you won't take the nursing suggestion. Not even after you already got BS.

Mayorboi:
Unless you have about 2 weeks to spare, I advice you paythrough western union.

Hello House, I am a silent follower of this thread and my F1 visa was delayed today at the Lagos US Consulate. My appointment was for 6:30. Window 5, A black American Woman with Long Hair (She did not smile and was typing all through the interview)

My Transcript.

V.O: Good Morning

Me: Good Morning Ma

V.O: Pass me your Passport and I20, please be fast I don't have all day

Me: Passed it sharply

V.O: (Picked my passport and scan it, without picking up my I-20) Why are going to the US.

Me: I'm going to the US to study a Masters Degree in Nutrition Sciences at the Texas Woman's University in Denton, Texas.

V.O: Why are you going to the US when you can study it online.

Me: Nutrition Science is a practical applied science that focus on dietary concerns and health issues relating to food choices, eating and medicine and going to the US will provide the best practical knowledge (V.O cuts me).

V.O: How many schools did you apply to?

Me: 3 schools, Texas Woman's University, Florida International University and Oklahoma State University.

V.O: Why this school?


ME: I choose TWU over others because the program focuses on Nutrition Intervention, Diet Therapy and also Nutrition Intervention using Evidence-Based nutrition practice which is Inline with my Career Path. I also fell in love with Prof. Vicky Imrhan Research on the role of Nutrition in the prevention and treatment of the chronic disorders like Diabetes and Cancer.

V.O: Did you do any test for this course?

ME: Yes, I did GRE and TOEFL

V.O: Who is going to pay for all this?

Me: My Mother

V.O: What does she do?

Me: She is a successful entrepreneur that owns a Food Processing Company, Cosmetics Production and Distribution company as well as a Private school.

V.O: Im sorry Bla Bla Bla...Passes the Blue Paper.

Me: Composed myself and marched out of the hall

Please people what did I do wrong.

I am planning to reapply again but I need to get it right. Kindly help!

Thanks

Choose the Western Union option.
Then print the stuff and scan to the person. well if you still want to pay SEVIS. I still have Dollars to exchange for Naira!!!

bigfrancis21:
Western union money order or western union quick pay (instant payment). The person abroad has to have the generated form i901 to be able to pay for you.

femi312:
All you need to do is make sevis payment in the next link after receiving your i20 (https://www.fmjfee.com), note that the SEVIS cant be paid in Nigeria, someone abroad has to make the payment for you after you have filled the sevis coupon in that link, then fill the Ds 160 form ( https://ceac.state.gov/genniv/) and lastly schedule for visa interview here https://cgifederal.secure.force.com/?language=English&country=Nigeria

kallowdean:
Try visit google sometimes... it helps and saves time. If you can't find most things there, then press on more info.
Anyways:
1) First step after getting I-20 is to finalizing a university from the admits you have.
2) Pay SEVIS fee for the university you are applying.
3) You need to Book Visa Date to appear for Visa Interview with US Consulate.
4) Get Bank statements ready or Student loan for Education.
5) Prepare all the documents required for F1 Visa Interview.
6) Know about Frequently asked Questions in Student Visa Interview and Prepare for those Qs.

They will see you as a lazy and unserious student.. hence you have to explain more why you picked that particular school out of all the schools in the US.. Best of luck!
