Monaboo:
Is it possible for me to get Admission into a BSN Accelerated program in USA with fully funded Scholarship?

You have your work cut out for you, it won't be easy. I haven't seen any fully funded BSN programs, but that does not mean it does not exist. I'll say keep searching and if you don't find one, search for schools with affordable nursing programs.

Good afternoon all,
Please is it possible to get a GRE waiver from a school that states it as part of their requirements? If yes, please how do I go about it and if otherwise any recommendation of schools with GRE waivers for Phd prog.

Thanks

Some departments have different requirements than those stated by the school. Contact the department you wish to apply to or read their requirements posted on their specific website.

He didn't state that his brother is in the USA that's why.
When he supplied that information then I believed him.
15k is small money if you are making it here in the states. judging from what I made in my last summer internship.

Nne, biko where you do your last summer internship because $15k per month is no small money even if you are earning in dollars. And I can confidently tell you, most companies in the US won't pay a summer intern up to 15k per month.

Babademmie:
I'm an HND holder in Computer Science and I'm 32years, I apply to Milwaukee School of Engineering for BSc Computer Engineering (Fall 2023).
I was given admission with 40% ($25,000) scholarship each year. The tuition is actually $61,446.
What are the chances that my Visa will be approved considering my age and the study gap of 8years, although I have 8years experience in the field?
Please advise and help.
Thanks.

There's nothing wrong with your age, you are still young and the chances of visa approval is between God and the visa officer. Sometimes you can have a perfect case and still get a denial. So it's better to take a chance rather than no chance at all. Secondly, you already have a first degree so that should not raise an eyebrow, I also don't see anything wrong with your age, like I said, you are still young. As for the study gap of 8 years, most Visa Officers are more concerned with what you were doing in those 8 years rather than the gap. If you were getting experience in the field, that's actually a bonus instead of being home doing nothing. I would advise you to take your chances, it is better to have a YES or NO, rather than a WHAT IF. Best of luck.

Boyco please should I use bank rate or aboki rate to calculate it because I am working on 21m.

My first question was not attended to plsssss

You are using the official bank rate to calculate not the black market rate.

Hey guys,
I know most of us are desperate for closer appointment dates at the US embassy. I encourage everyone to tread carefully so you don’t get swindled by those promising you closer dates for “a token”. It's easy to fall victim to scammers when you desperately want something. I’ve seen people on this platform get scammed by those promising them closer dates so please be careful and be smart in your dealings. Don’t let desperation becloud your judgment.

I think you can, as long as a decision hasn't been reached by Canada. I also don't think you should divulge it during your US interview, except if you are asked. No use over information spoil your luck

Dammyvikky:
Please, I need clarification on something….is it possible to be applying for a US visa and still be processing Canadian visa simultaneously!

Please if you know anything about this, I would love a response ��

I know tension and anxiety can make you forget everything you had planned but next time, please think of how much this means to you. All the resources and effort you have put into this journey.
The VO is a human being like you, don't let them intimidate you.
And also practice, practice and practice. It might help you ease the tension next time. Now you have an idea of what to expect, stay prepared, and don't lose guard.
Delay is not denial.
Hopefully, next time will be better.

I don't think it's relevant to the interview if you applied to schools outside the US. I would say just list the schools you applied to in the US.

Chilexeve:
Please regarding questions about the number of schools one applied to, must the schools be in the US only, or can one mention other schools he or she applied to in countries like Canada and UK?
