AdekojeM:
Thanks bro, I've gotten it. U're far too kind, I was almost paying someone else for it when ur mail came through. God bless bro!!!

Hedonistically:
It depends on your motive for going to the UK. If all you want is highest quality education, then, then there's no better destination than the UK. Quality and standard of education there is top tier; better than the USA in my view.

However, if you consider your student visa a black market ticket to permanent residency and a fulfilling white collar career in the UK, then you might want to have a long, deep rethink. You're probably going to end up disappointed and stranded.

Drienzia:

imperiouxx: It's painful seeming them thrashing your stuffs at the airport I feel like slapping that guy when he thrashed my deodorant detected in my bag by that mumu scanner

ashlanddude: its good to be back after a whole month of struggling to settle down here... i missed you all. well my former id was ronald2g1 which belongs to a friend of mine that introduced me to nairaland lastyr after i started processing. This is my new id and i hope to keep on the spirit. how una dey?

imperiouxx: Haba! To God be the gratefulness. Inbox me when it's getting close and I pray I check the box on time.

imperiouxx: Why should you be surprise about the bold sentence. They don't go back to your first interview because it's already in front of them with reason for your denial. Unless in a case they just asked to test your sincerity. Also getting visa with just few days expired I-20 is possible this is not my first time of standing with this claim for whoever like to challenge it. Mind if I beg you for a small errand in Nigeria before coming..... jo mafi se'binu.

Anthonymighty: Congrats Mate.....So happy you finally got it. Welcome to ilu nla. When do you plan traveling because i know it will be ASAP! since you got an extension letter already. Like Yvette said hope you can register for classes this semester. Good luck bro.

Yvete: awww congrats Shoggie!! Happy for ya!
Hope you can still enroll for classes this semester.

shoggie: Glory be to God in the highest place. I was denied an F1 Visa today.
I was happy atleast that I fought a good fight of faith up till now after four sucessive rescheduling of my
Visa interview since the first time I booked my interview in November.

My second appreciation goes to everyone on this blog who has been contributing immensely for intended aspirants.
My special unmitigated enthusiasm goes to imperiouxx, nairaspace, walex, Yvete, mammacita etc for their PAINSTAKING effort on everybody from my day one on this blog.
I am dauntless & not in anyway pessimistic.
But to aspirants & the gurus, it is another time to learn from each other.
Here goes my Interview at 10:45, Abuja:
VO : Good morning ( he denied every living person I witnessed except one husband & wife that came for renewal)
Me : Good morning Sir ( I grinned as usualto cool tempo)
VO : Pass me your documents
VO : Sorry, please give some minutes I will be back in a moment.
Me : Calm, waited for like two minutes not even thinking about anything.
Vo : hello, how did you learn about the school?
Me : I dowloaded the best 200 universities based on US News report on university ranking & I used internet to search for those that suite my profile.
VO : Nodded
VO : So you are going for Masters in Bleep course.
Me : Yes
VO : So you what will Bleep course do for you.
Me : I love lecturing, I worked hard to graduate as the best students from my department because I wil like to work as a lecurer in any of our best universities & will also like to work as a research consultant to some of our research institutes since most of them are affiliated to our National universities.
VO : Nodded
VO : Pass me your statement of Accounts
Me : Passed
VO : He glanced through each page & Keep murmuriing sth about $77,000 on my I-20 which was the money I submitted to my school before my I-20 was issued.(possibly he mistaken it for $36, 400 for tution fee on my I-20 as well)
Me : I stayed calm, confidence & a bit indifference since I have 18million plus on the statement of account
VO : Is it only the family type who is sponsoring your study. He asked sth on this twice
Me : Yes, My brother. He failed to ask about what he does. I was waiting for him to ask me about what he does but he failed to do so.
VO : Have you travelled outside Nigeria before
Me : No
VO : Continuing typing & suddenly said your Visa is denied because your family type shows insufficient fund & that I may reapply at any time.
Me : Thank you Sir.
Am happy for one singular reason, I did not lose courage & not too bothered about whether he was going to approve or deny.
Observation : The other lady in window 6 issued almost everybody (9:1 if not 100%), even those going to community colleges, infact, she approved two guys who have graduated since 2006, No SAT or TOEFL but one kind diploma certificates.She was just too happy that we all of us knew that whosoever fortunate to meet her has already got his/her Visa approved.
I had so much time to count the number of applicants'passport on his desk who he has granted Visa,around ten but less than 15 since morning oh!Throughout my time there, he did not issued anybody visa except the couple who came for renewal.
Those going to Abuja, pray against window 7 guy, he is a saddist, too reluctant to issued Visa as if we were goig to US to steal his hard earning dollars.

zerocool: The bolded might have changed his mind to approve your visa. Thing is, when they start typing, they are typing the reason why you can't be issued already, even before they officially verbally tell you that you have been denied. He just used that question to buttress his point on their database for the reason he denied you, and having no travel experience was part of it, so the next VO to interview you, will know what and what to look out for and ask. The assistant consular general of the US embassy in Nigeria, said the same thing in a media chat late last year that most Nigerians are denied solely based on the fact that they don't have any travel experience. Wait a while before re-applying ..possibly a year or two.. make your circumstances change, try to travel to a country during that period, SA, UAE or UK.. blah blah..and re-apply, you will definitely be issued, except you bleep it up yourself again.

imperiouxx: Good to know your emotion wasn't defeated. I don't understand what you mean by $77,000 on I-20 and mistaking it for $36,400 for tuition. Do you mean total amount on your I-20 is $77,000? Well, like yvete said, the account when submitting for admission must have changed in transaction prior interview, so I don't expect you to take the same statements submitted to school to embassy. I didn't do like that. Moreover, "family" on I-20 gives you the opportunity to switch statement without any issue. Try again friend, it is well with you.

imperiouxx: Have you tried talking to them one on one? If not, call them. Hope this is your first time of going for a visa interview?

imperiouxx: When is your resumption date?

imperiouxx: @Shoggie,

I'm very very sorry I didn't read the content of your message yesterday because of an undesired issue that overwhelmed my clemency. I only checked the heading and the first line and replied you off point but now I have replied you inbox...... Perfectly I think. Cheers!
