So for the delay of my Transcript
I had my visa interview on Monday August 03 at the Lagos Consulate.
After a very restless night, I got to the consulate at Walter Carrington at about 5:20am. My appointment was for 6:30am. I got into the Hall of Judgment by 7:30am. At this point, am so confidence about my interview question.

I was called to Window 12 around 8:00am. The VO was some middle-aged, white woman and the following conversation ensued:
Me: Good morning , happy New Month ma.
VO: Good morning. Place your left four fingers on the scanner.
Me: After the finger print.
VO: Where are u going too?
Me: Harold Washington College in Chicago.
VO: Who is your sponsor?
Me: My Aunt. She’s a clinical pharmacy at university of Chicago, medical center.
VO: which course do u want to study?
Me: I said Electrical Engineering.
VO: do u write any exam?
Me: Yes, I wrote SAT and TOEFL.
VO: What is your SAT score?
Me: I said 1210
VO: Why Harold Washington College?
Me: I was referred by Admission advisor at Illinois Institute of Technology(where I applied as a transfer student) I should complete my prerequisite course work at community college before transferring to Illinois Institute of Technology.
VO: Since you are already studying Electrical Engineering at Yaba Tech, why are you going to study in the US without finishing your program here?
Me: My program at Yaba Tech is a National Diploma and I wish to obtain my Bachelor degree in Electrical Engineering in US.

She type for a while and she said I was not eligible for visa. I ask her that why, she said nothing. That I should reapply. I ask her again, what should bring when coming bck, she said I should go through the blue paper she gave me. I said thank you bye. I want to deferred my admission to spring 2016 (resume Jan 11) and planning to reapply for interview in october
Pls anything wrong? I will be happy to hear from u guys back. Tnks very much.

sorry bro....refire..

brosdoncome:
I was delayed for a silly excuse by the VO. I will drop my transcript when I get my fingers on a computer. I have sent a mail to my school for deferment to Spring semester.

bro sorry....

refire u will get it next try...
awaiting ur transcript

Jesemela:
Hello all, this is my first time of posting here, though I have always been a secrete follower. My bro has been to the embassy twice now and has been denied. He got a conditional admission from the university he used to apply the first time (university of Maryland Baltimore county) to study pre nursing. The vo gave him a white 214b paper at the end of the interview which reads he doesn't have strong ties to his home country which is obviously not the case. After the denial he went to the EducationUsa advising center and he explained his situation to the advisor he met at the center, the advisor told him to reconsider his course of study, write SAT and to apply to a new university which he did. Yesterday he went for a new interview and was denied based on the fact that he changed his course of study, however, the question came as an embush. So the vo just passed him a blue 214b paper. I would like to know if he can still get an appointment this month because his school is to resume by 25th of this month and what he can say if he is asked why he changed his course of study.

you will ve to post his previous transcripts... that's the first step to solve his problem..

Sorbital:
Visa delayed this morning...
Reason: out of the four schools I applied to, two were located in the same state...he tot I have personal interest in the state, perhaps an uncle or relative I wanna run to...I tried very hard to convince him that after my researches and streamlining, bla bla bla, that it was a mere coincidence that the two were located in the same state.. He was just so mean to give me the Visa...deep down me, I knew I prepared well and answered confidently cos I really prepared...

Feeling very depressed and helpless since morning..
But what can man do?

share ur full transcript pls?

meritdee:
Here's my funny transcript....

Mind you, I'm holding a conditional admission which has 36months course completion on its I-20. Morgan State University plays too much aswear.

So after every screening and all, I was called to window 2 by one pretty chic (I noticed she's been frowning all morning tho)

Me: Good morning ma'am (with a forced wizardry smile)
VO: *frowns* can I have ur documents pls?
Me: *I be like 'what I do na?'* Gave em to her

VO: Can u pls place ur four fingers on the (didn't hear her but I knew she was talking about the fingerprint scanner) pls?
Me: Placed four fingers on scanner and was staring at her... I knew she was done, but I didn't remove dem fingers until she said I should remove them.

VO: Where are you going in US?
Me: Morgan State University, Baltimore, Maryland.

VO: How long is your course of study?
Me: (for my mind, I be like 'beht why?' this girl no dey see komot eye?) 36 months

VO: What course?
Me: MS in Project Management

VO: Who will be sponsoring you?
Me: My uncle

VO: What does he do?
Me: He's contracted to Ekiti State and Ondo State Government and he's into real Estate. He buys, sells and develops prop.. *Cuts

VO: Did you write any test?
Me: Yes I did

VO: Which one (with strong face)
Me: (Me sef give am ogbeni, calm down face) GRE

VO: Can I see it?
Me: (She just owned me at this stage cuz I was looking for the LovePeddler print out that was making out with one of my documents) Sorry ma, gimme a min

VO: LET ME SEE THE PRINT OUT! (I guess y'all understands why I used the caps here)
Me: found it and gave it to her. (Her mind come down)

VO: okay good, Why this school?
Me: Out of the schools that offered me admission, MSU is the only school that has its school of management accredited by Association to Advanced Collegiate Schools of Business. While also going through the graduate research works, I came across an ongoing research by professor Ali Emdad that centers on Addressing Enterprise and Vendor issues in Data Center Infrastructure Management which is inline with my work. I contact... *cuts me*

VO: Where do you work?
Me: I said Airtel NG, but was transferred there by one of their contracted outsourcing and facility managem...*cuts* (I for just use vendor easily)

VO: When did you Graduate?
Me: Dec 2010

VO: What did you study as undergraduate?
Me: Pure and Applied Physics

VO: What do you do?
Me: I work..... (she was staring at me straight in the eye now) so I continued and told her, I work as a Data Center support and Analyst.

VO: Dancing center what?
Me: (For my mind, I be like... Dancing Salsa ni) Data Center support and Analyst

I though I already owned her here until she asked the question that killed me...

VO: What class would you be taking?
Me: Project management class with focus on Information technology management. Listed 2 courses in this class *cuts*

VO: Unfortunately........................................ I no hear the rest
Me: (With confidence level now below 10%) I just said the thank you and my crush on her died on the spot.

I don't know, but I think as a conditional admission student, I should have told her the 9 credit courses that would have qualified me for the major course instead of the major ones.

Thanks to Juntod, Innovativeame, Bigfrancis21, Slimmy and many others here that assisted in one way or the day and sorry for disappointing you guys.

Make I go clear my ish with my HR first, me that was thinking that I'd drop my resignation letter this week ehn.

I'm down but not out. Goodluck to others

wow!!! Seriously?
I wouldn't know the the answer either...would give her same answers like urs...

well another lesson learnt....!!!

refire bro.

Thanks for that godG. Sometimes in life God will not give everybody same blessing. There is this local saying "dance I will use one leg to dance even if you use two legs you might still fall" so please life can be tough for you in U.S. Thanks for sharing with us but please try not to relate your issues with another persons destiny. Nobody or persons thinks life is a bed of roses. Leaving your country and your family ofcos u don't expect life to be easy with you. I tell you life is US is far better than life in Malaysia so please try not to stay negative even when is tough always remain positive and hope that the same God who made Obama who he is today will also make you too.

I'm telling you....Pple are so pessimistic!!!
