RIP

Good then, check for regional acredited schools in the USA some of them accept gpa of 2.75.... its also very important that you evaluate your result with WES, that way you are sure its 2.75

JoeBazz:
After using the information you gave me to calculate my GPA using WES calculator my GPA is 2.75/4...thanks so much bro

It took you 5 years to get your degree due to the extra year right? Then its 5 years for course duration.... Although one thing i am not sure about, is how the extra year grades would be calculated because i never evaluated my result using any external evaluation service...

JoeBazz:
Thank you...I still have questions about the WES conversion. My course is 4years but I had extra year(repeated some courses) should I use 5years on the course duration? Or should I replace the failed course with the newly passed course after the extra year?
I need information on this please

Now that you know your cgpa in US standard, i will advice that you search on google for schools who will accept 2.59/4..... you will have to contacts graduate cordinators of the departments you will be applying too first to be sure, some schools offer conditonal admission with such low CGPA.... you can PM me for any additional assistance

JoeBazz:
After calculating with wes tools I got 2.59/4

Longest time my people... a whole lot to catch-up with... if you need help as regards ur transcript/interview hit me up, it feels good to be back.

No approval transcript

30watts:
Please I may not be able to enter the US before my program start date what can I do. I can only enter the US before classes begin.

Abeg SOS!!!!!!, has anyone had this issue in the past. The white paper I received read that one cannot enter the US after the program start date but classes only begin a week after.

Congrats... and yes Aluta Continua, Victoria Ascerta! this reminds me of the good old days in the University

Go and succeed and be careful of those Americans Aluta E

Sorry about your denial. failure to pronounce Where your dad worked correctly caused you and that is really unfortunate and that was why he said your dad doesn't work there. He took the stuff in so has to clerify things further with his seniors. what you should have was just done was to prove that your dad works there... infact he knows Schlumberger is the world's largest oilfield services company, it would have just taken an Administrative processing to prove that your dad works there instead Of defending your self on why you had to pronounced it that badly. Why he asked you if he had travel to the states was so he could check from his computer at that moment. you would have just told him to further confirm this and put your application on AP....

FriendlyTop:
Denied today at Lagos embassy.. Am a silent follower. My confidence level boosted few minutes before the interview. There were many stammerers,
Some people don't even why they chose their courses.. A guy was asked d difference between CAT 5and CAT 6 (mere Ethernet cable oh), he couldn't answer. Another guy says his company is a solution provider in software and he doesn't know about any programming language, he said something about Microsoft (I laughed) the Chinese guy was trying to help him sef, he answered most of his questions for him, he still got denied. I was hoping to get the Chinese guy cos d guy is good and knows a lot about IT.
My interview
Was directed to window 3.
The guy wore Ankara.
Vo: Good morning
Me: morning
Vo; pass me ur passport and I 20
I did before he even landed.
Vo: how did you hear about the school
I didn't hear him properly, told him to repeat and he did.
Me: After I made d decision of going for masters, I used internet tool to search for schools, listed out some school online with software as d keyword, took it inside Kimberly Clark (an American company). Fortunately for me, d present automation engineer inside d plant did his masters there so it's more like a recommendation.
Vo: what do you do
Me: am an automation technician
Vo: so u write code in c++
Me: am not really good with c++, but I write c#..as an automation person, I basically write PLC programming from Rockwell automation (he told me to repeat Rockwell).
Vo: who's ur sponsor
Me; my dad
Vo: what does he do
Me: he is into oil and gas
The vo guy laugh scatter
Vo: explain further
Me; he is a professional project engineer with schlumberger oil field services in ph
He corrected the pronunciation of schlumberger. I said that's what I call it right from time.
Vo: do u have his bank statement
Me; showed him
he perused through it and took it inside for over 7minutes.
When he got back
Vo: has ur dad been to US before cos of his job
Me: no he has been to Istanbul and UK
vo :you couldn't pronounce your dad's company well which means he doesn't work there.
I laughed and repeated that's what I call it since its German, he said he has never heard anyone pronounced it that way
Me; ok
Vo:what does ur mum do
Me; she's into real estate.
Vo: how many siblings
Me; 4 am d second born
Vo : I believe you are a genuine student but you will be paying 40k USD as tuition fee and am not sure u can afford it
And he gave me blue paper and I left.
Am not reapplying until I find a good school with moderate tuition fee and the course has to be related with software programming cos that's d only course I can defend cos of my job. Any recommendations
Thanks in anticipation.

did you make corrections to the bolded before your interview?? this might have been the problem

Hello everyone, below is my transcript 2nd of August, 6:45am though not well arrange but still comprehensive.Even though I posted my proposed transcript several times, no one responded .i want to post this cos I learned from transcripts I got from here. Thanks.
VO-Where are you going
Me- Etsu
Why-
ME- to pursue MA in Liberal Studies
VO-WHY LIBERAL STUDIES -
because it by nature an interdisciplinary program, it will give me a week rounded education rather than training me to succeed in a particular job (she nods)
Vo- I see you have a GA
Me-yes
VO-What will you do after graduation
Me- I'll take up an academic position in my Alma mater, having graduated as the best student in my department, they are willing to take me
VO-What course will you be lecturing
Me-English (she nods)
VO-What will you do with the GA
Me- I will teach foundational courses during teaching hours, grade scripts and proctor tests which will prepare me for a career in academics (she nods again and says oh... OK)
VO-Are you married
VO:Do you have kids
VO:Who will be sponsoring the rest fees
Me-my uncle Mr RajiLookman
VO: What does he do?
Me-too he's an educationist, he owns a school
VO- Why will he be sponsoring you?
Me- well, he has always been sponsoring me. When I told him about my plans to study abroad, he told me to come up with a proposal. I guess he was convinced and he saw how viable my plans are, that's why he'll be sponsoring
VO- She just passed me a white paper and said I should get my visa in 3working days
VO- Oh... She asked if I did any test, I said GRE and told her the result without bringing it out
VO-She also asked for statement if account, she looked through, she calculated and returned it to me�[/quote]

I think I already answered your question Senator material is cool....

Enasdan:
thanks, what I meant is like a senator (material) kind of dressing, will that will advisable for an F-1 student visa applicant (MBA)

There are no rules against wearing native. if native makes him comfortable he is so good to go... infact i stumbled across a former VO comment some 2-3 years ago about what to wear for your interview and if native was allowed and then she mentioned that they are all secret admires of people wearing native during their interview and and then she mentioned how she admired a lady that wore Ankara.......

Enasdan:
A close
person of mine, is having his F-1 Student interview this month of August, MBA, he is choosing to put on native material for the interview, I have this notion from some group of individuals that putting on native material and cap like the Yoruba type of a cap to the US embassy for an F-1 student visa interview (Master's program, MBA ) is very wrong, please house how true is this, do putting on native to the embassy for interview is it a bad impression? I'm trying to advice someone as well for the best. thanks.

You are not looking for trouble but you they ask about trouble ? You know like as the thread they peaceful so

lasthero:

lalahhh:
Im sorry but my post will be long. I decided to post this after seeing that my AP status changed to issued. First I’ll like to thank God for everything, Sorelee I thank you so so much, words can’t express how grateful I am to you. Ubah1 thank you for encouraging me. Kekenation thank you too. You guys are amazing. I have been to the embassy 7 times , 4 times last year and 3 times this year. I don’t think my last year’s transcripts would be necessary. So here’s my first interview transcript for this year.
Me- Good morning
VO- pass me your I 20 and passport
VO- where are you going to?
Me- North Carolina Central University, Durham, North Carolina for my masters in( VO cuts in)
VO- what are you going for?
Me- My Masters Degree in History
VO- how did you get this assistantship?
Me- The department’s Chair was impressed with my GRE, my transcript, statement of purpose and essay.
VO- so why did you change course and school ?
Me- sorry? I didn’t get that.
VO- the last time you were here you were wanted to go to Arcadia so why change to NCCU?
Me- Arcadia gave me partial scholarship while NCCU gave me the full ride and in NCCU, I get to minor in courses related to Peace and Conflict Resolution.
VO- so who would pay for other expenses
Me- I have family funds
VO-which family?
Me- My Uncle
VO- what does he do?
Me - he works with the Kwara state government, at the Lower Niger River Basin.
VO- where does he live?
Me- Kwara state
She looks at the I 20 for a while then drops it
She asked for bank statement which I gave to her
She stared at it for a while , typed somethings ... In my mind I was just praying , then she asked
VO- why is your Uncle paying
Me- my parents sent his to school so this is more like a more thank you and he has the money
VO- how many siblings do you have ?
Me- 5
VO- which Uncle would be paying for them?
Me- I am the last child
VO - what’s the name of your Uncle
Me- I said his name
Then she picked up the I 20 again .... looked at it again and asked
VO- are you married?
Me- NO I’m not
VO- do you have children?
Me - No I don’t
Then she finally said I’m sorry you are not found eligible at this time.
This was lagos embassy. I was advised to try Abuja embassy and I did. Interview was for June 30th.
VO- Good morning , Pass your I-20
Me- Answered her while passing it.
VO- I see you have been denied in Lagos , why come to Abuja ?
Me- after being denied I informed the school and I was asked to please try again but I checked Lagos embassy and I couldn’t get an early date but I got here in Abuja.
VO- while nodding her head, what are you going to do in United States of America
Me- I’m going for my masters in History in North Carolina Central University
VO- how many schools did you apply to?
Me- 4. University of Wyoming, Texas A&M, North Carolina A&T and NCCU.
VO- I see you have full tuition waver
Me - Ohh yes while opening all my 36
Then she picked up the white paper, in my mind I was saying Ohhh yes, come to Mama... I’m right here baby , then she looked at me my heartbeat increased rapidly.
VO- where is you sister
Me - Confused n lost .... sorry?
VO- I said where is your sister?
Me- she’s in USA on OTP
VO- why isn’t she back? When did she travel? When is her date of birth? When did she travel?
Me- ahhhh I don’t know the answers to all these questions.. we are not so close
VO- wait I’m trying to help you out here
Me - shaking, already disorganized
Then she finally said it ... I’m sorry I won’t be issuing your visa.
Me - why? What’s wrong?
So I got home, with the mind of this is the end , called my sister and explained everything to her . She explained the part I mixed and begged me to go one more time, reluctantly I said ok. Luckily for me, we got July 19th on that same day. Truthfully I wasn’t so hyped about the last interview, I was dressed casually. I got interviewed by this middle aged woman on Ankara. A very nice woman I must add infact the nicest VO I ever came across. So here is the third transcript
Me- Goodmorning
VO- Good morning, you passport and I-20 please
I gave it to her
VO - ohhh NCCU
Me - yeah North Carolina Central University
VO- so who’s sponsoring you?
Me- I have full tuition waver and family support
VO- family support?
Me- yea my uncle.
VO- what does he do?
Me- he works with Kwara state Government at the Lower Niger River Basin
VO- Kwara state?
Me- yea Kwara state.
VO- where is that on the map? While looking at her map
Me- can you see Oyo state? It’s right beside Oyo state.
VO- ohhh wow , I can see it now .
VO- I see you have been denied twice , what has changed about your application?
Me- the last time I came here , i noticed the VO kept asking me questions about my sister that I didn’t know about and she ended up denying me. I went home, called my sister and she explained everything to me.
VO- so explain it to me too
Me- I did . Told her everything
VO- you see the main reason why you have been denied all these while is because of your family history, you sister finished school and she didn’t return.
Me- but she’s still in OTP and that’s my sister not me
VO- i know and that’s why it’s called family history . il do you a favour , il overlook it
Me- thank you so much
VO- wait
Me - in my mind, mo daran kilotun sele bayii
VO- il place you on AP , if we find anything fraudulent about your documents, you will be banned from entering the USA for life.
Me - No wahala , they are all real.
VO- Are you sure? make sure you travel before classes starts or else you will be turned back at the port of entry.
Me - ok ma’am. Thank you . Please can I pick up a tissue
VO - sure please do, take as much as u need .
Me- picked up the tissue and left
I might have forgotten some questions asked sha but this is all I can remember. I have found this thread really helpful. The main thing is be well prepared, be organized and learn from people. Thank you so much once again
Sorelee
Ubah1
Kekenation
Ekebs I really hope they issue yours too soon.

Dos people can over kaku dem dey try run more checks on you as per your profile... It will end in praise

patsodek:
That is what I'm thinking bro.

I think I remember you, you are the Doc working with a popular Governmental security agency right? Your AP has got to do with that not just your bank statement....

patsodek:
Nothing yet. First bank.
This looks more than verification of account.

I honestly do not know so give it some time more

ghs007:

Is it a normal procedure? I was told that my visa is approved.

Give it some time or were you told that you would be placed on AP yesterday if No then give it some time

ghs007:
I just checked my visa application status on the CEAC website and it is showing Administrative Processing and it was updated today. My visa was approved yesterday, the consular officer told me that my visa was approved. She gave me the pickup letter and did not circle any location ( I think she didn't circle the pickup location because I think she was rushing because I was the last person to be interviewed yesterday in Abuja). I hope there is no problem because the status showed Application received earlier today.

Ma No, but you look more of a serious student if you applied to more than one school. assuming you were to write jamb will you choose just one skol when you have an option to choose 3 more ?

Incomparable:



Sir, is it a must to mention more than one school, when you are faced with the question of "how many schools did you apply to"?

It doesn't guarantee your visa approval

AusterHeights:
Guys, is it advisable to pay tuition (for masters) before visa interview?

Tobigspice go and collect your visa... your why US first answer is good that's sud do, how did you hear about the school nice but make it shorter not sure you did be given all the time to say all that you have a edge with your funding use it for your reason for choosing ETSU

TobigSpice:

Please guys I'm still waiting, it just seems like no one is ready to respond...Thanks

Vo: when did you finish High school?
Me: 2014
Vo: what have you been doing since then?

Presently, I am a laptop technician at. **** Company and my responsibilities include setting up hardware and installation of software and drivers and also troubleshoot system failure and bugs to restore functionality

Your above answer prompted the question she asked you after because you already mentioned that you were working after your training.

you just needed to have continued from what you were saying cos your answer prompted that question let say for example since you already have trained as a computer hardware engineer you have develop a strong interest for not just the practical aspect which you have learnt during that time and which you have also put into practice but you believe strongly that at this time that both theoretical and practical if earned in a university is of great importance to your career/ future goals as a computer engineer and that is why you are pursuing a bsc degree in computer engineering at bla bla bla ( just an illustration I hope you understand what I am trying to say) pls ignore the typos phone screen got cracked earlier today and it's been messing up ever since



vo: what will it do for you?
me: This degree will equip me with the knowledge and skills to develop *cuts in
vo: which knowledge

She asks what knowledge because that answer was too generic so work on what the degree would do for you


After you have prepared better give it another short.


I see that the black VOS are really intelligent to be honest. guys be ready to back up any thing you say with smart answers if you are interview by them bc they are really smart with their questions

All the best

A very strong and convincing reason for a change of course is the key

[/quote]

The above bolded in a simple sentence. they all have small size student to faculty ratio.







Interview can be subjective but let me say something today for other future applicants that are working, and might gain from it. It impress most VOS to see that aside that you have a sponsor who is willing to spend millions on you, you have also been able to save up some money for your education depending on how long you have been working tho. You see, it's your own very certificate and ambition not your sisters, brother, uncle or parent it shows how fully committed and determine you are

I insist that TOEFL Is a standardized test it is written boldly on the site as a standardized test for non English Natives has a Nigerian she is not a English native

And before you come back here to start arguing unnecessary like other people before you this was an interview done recently here by a member of this forum his moniker is whyqueu

Ajibade105:
@Ovitbaby, TOEFL no be standardized test... I think the reason for your refusal was; there's no correlation/relationship between your BS and your proposed/preferred MS program. You need to convince the VO more this time around. Success Ahead in your next visa interview.

Go ahead and tell the VO you wrote Toefl, Though your score is below the 80 mark of most schools I think 77 is not that bad. So if you are asked about standardized test then tell him/her you wrote toefl and yes toefl is a standardized test you can only answer no if you were asked if you took the GRE or Gmat

Jaked:
PLS ANSWER ME.......I need your help here....please I went for f-1 visa interview in june and I was denied due to what I dont know or could it be that because the VO asked me how Many school and I said 1?
Secondly I have reapply now and on my confirmation page I wrote that I will travel on the 10th of august which have submitted and cannot be change..then getting to book for appointment i couldn't get before the 10th .the earliest date i got for interview is 13th of august...hope there is no problem about that...thank you

I saw your quote before u removed it. Do you seriously want me to pat you on the shoulder for doing this ? You asked for a review and i criticize you for that error I will do same to my blood. This doesn't make me a bad person.

Temitayo1949:
no

SMH You lied and you were not even smart about it you gave the VO wrong details, you have put your usa visa approval in jeopardy. I am not God but this is a costly error . if I may ask you what's the name of this school ?

Temitayo1949:
Now i know my mistakes...I fumbled

So what can be done now...Cos i want to do a reapplication with this school or should i just get another school. and since the ..Cos actually i just said what came to my mind...Never heard of the school from a colleague...I actually chose the school cos i have someone who stay at that location in US(which ordinarily they wont want to hear)...

...Should i just forget about this school and reapply to a new one or rephrase my answers...Thank u

According to the question he asked you why do you want to study in the US and not what course you were pursuing or what the course will do for you as you answered ... when questions are asked, take 3-4 secs to understand what questions were asked before you say anything and when you don't understand or hear those questions correctly due to the VO's accents do not be shy to ask that the questions be repeated

something like this as an answer would have been better ...

The US is at the forefront of scientific and creative innovation. Institutions in the USA, offer opportunities for students to work side-by-side with their professors and apply what they are learning in the classroom in the lab or workshop. You will be benefiting immensely from this

This colleague of yours what is his current status?

Temitayo1949:

VO: Good morning
Me: Good Morning Sir
Vo: Pass me your passport and I-20
Me: handed it over
Vo: So why do you want to study in US?
ME: I actually want to pursue my masters in Information Security.I currently work as an IT Auditor and i believe getting the degree will not only improve my technical skills but also improve my competence.
Vo: What is two factor Authentication?
Me: This is an authentication process that involves combination of two factors for security basically what you know such as passwords and What you have(Bio metrics,fingerprints)
Vo: How do you know about the school?
ME: Got to know about the school from a colleague of mine at my current place of work...
Vo: is he an F1 visa recipient too
Me: Yes
Vo: Whats his name again(Said bla bla...Asked me to spell the name i spelt it)...To be sincere i didn't get to know from anybody just mentioned a name that came to my head cos the basis of going to the place was that i had someone there i could stay with
Me: Spelt the name
Kept typing...
Vo: Are you married
Me: No
Vo: Kids?

After typing for some time.............

Tell your 'friend' to do a Google search. It is that easy. No matter what is suggested here, your 'friend' will still make the final decision.When you do the bulk of the research yourself, it is then productive to get useful suggestions here.

By the way, why didn't your friend attend American University of Nigeria since you own the school? Lol �
