Walspring: They don't reserve space there ooo.. When someone is asked to go and drop items that are not allowed to be bring in inside the embassy, the person will go back and queue afresh...
technolee: Shola, on your appointment confirmation print out, you have all these instructions there. In my time, I went with my documents, transport fare, and ATM card. When you get home, you will update us on your success. Spend your time more on preparation rather than thinking of a failure that doesn't exist. Oau no dey carry last now. Where is Kofsy BTW?
Abeg who be dis? Obviously, you're of Great Ife. Kofsy is fine. She is busy with some other stuffs for now.
Walspring: You can go with it now because there is place now where you can keep your belongings but you will pay for it.. I think is the army post that place is located..
njokusboy: I wonder why Tayo hasn't cracked this sheet YET...
Uti has won BBA before, he is a successful actor/ presenter, why should he be brought back to the show to replace you 3 weeks to the end... makes little sense.. If Tayo's brain cannot outrightly tell him it's a BIG joke, he should atleast be patient enough to watch as events unfold on sunday instead of Talking too much... Nawaoh
I am still surprised how intelligence is ascribed to Tayo on this thread.
(Before Tayo's ardent fans start quoting me) Intelligence isn't everyone's strength. That doesn't mean he isn't street-smart. Not being 'that' intelligent isn't an insult in this context. And intelligence doesn't necessarily win you big brother...I know that.
honeyad: I know of a school that does same Colombia southern university(CSU), Alabama... I'm not even sure they issue i20.. Stingy people... Tell them to send you i20 so u can apply for visa sha
I've been sent the I-20 joor. Interview is next week.
Walspring: This school must be stingy or running out of money.. I cant stop laughing jooor
If i may ask do they dont accept application fee abi But even schools who accept payment upon arrival still print your admission letter with I-20 and send it to you via fedex...
Even CC will print admission letter along side I-20
Looool...na u sabi oo.
Btw, you must be a very troublesome person offline.
stevecrun: Why you confusing yourself?Walspring,was right..schools don't send out i20 nor admission letter through email for you to print out and go with it to the embassy. No school would do that.
They would only send you a copy through the email for you to preview and see if your personal details..etc are correct before they have it sent out through courier.
Wow! Really? ? My admission letter (or rather certificate of admission) was sent to my email and it was clearly stated that a hard copy will not be issued.

decanta: Ellah deserves the money more than idris,her shower hour alone is more impactful than any thing idris has done in that house..... Have you seen that girl naked?
I still believe Tayo can win to be honest. Though, he isn't my favourite (Idris is). All it takes is for others to mess up their 'game' (For example: Ella seemed to playing the winning game until these ex-housemates came and showed some variations of her.)
Tayo is already a stand-out. If he could work out a certain arc (not necessarily his active doing; like housemates ganging up on him etc etc), he just might win.
And what's with all these stuff I see on this thread: 'Nigerians are loud ppl...blah blah'. Pur-leaazeee!!!! One young man (even though he was handpicked from 200 million people for a greater cause a la BBA) is not a representative sample of the average Nigerian, rather, that of Denrele's(/Uti's) caucus. I won't say more than that.
Ofunneka wasn't loud.
Cc: Beverly, Lilian...etc etc....Melvin is an exception though.
