Hello Everyone!

Please kindly help me with the names of the schools that I can apply to, that the tuition fee are cheap and doesn't require Gre , TOEFL , etc for Bachelor degree.

Thanks very much in anticipation.

GRE is for graduate studies. No school in USA will require GRE for undergraduate studies

Hello Gurus

Thank you.

The reviews here will make you decide if it's a good school or not.

I applied for Masters in Industrial and Systems Engineering.
Hope the profile is complete....lol

Funding for your program is highly competitive. I hope they fund you

I see alot of "lazy" questions that many can get by reading this thread. Take out your time and read the thread, also make use of Google before asking questions here

Good evening important people, please i want to ask a question,
I got admission in A community college in the US.
They didnt require SAT scores or IELTS and co.
Buh I knw that when asked of how many schools i applied to byvthe VO I should say 3 or 4 , so the question is thus:

1. Incase I say 3 or 4 and i mentioned other universities, then when asked did I take exams please what should I answer the VO, should i say yes or no?


2. Does the Universities in America demand exams like IELTS , SAT and co before giving admission to students over here, or do they demand them after giving the admission? Note: I'm going with O'Level

So i can knw the right answer to give, if I need the exams before gaining admission in Uni so i can look for a score tell them wen asked, coz I'll tell them the Uni gave me admission but i took the college for some reasons.

So i can be on the safe side!


Please its urgent

Be truthful or else u land yourself in a mess. So you mean to tell them that you applied to other universities and chose community college over a university? Nawa

mayDtolu:
Thanks bro but is it really a good school for MSc?

They have few courses and they are good in the courses they offer.

Pefuele:
Good day peeps,

Please who has an idea of the cost of ordering i-20 from Texas to Naija?

AkAbiola:
Wow wow wow!!!
I'm so glad to jam this forum this morning in my despiration and in Yoruba (Nigeria ti su mi) meaning I'm tired of Nigeria.
I saw the previous parts (or should I say seasons ).

Please, I know my questions might not resonate with the current flow of issue on this platform but try and help a brother build hope again and provide guidance. God help us all.

I graduated from FUNAAB 2017
BSc Chemistry, CGPA 4.47/5.0
Finished NYSC 2018

I do Have a resilient passion for MSc in Chemical and Process Engineering and if not together, only Chemical Engr will do in the U.S. (BSc Chemistry is eligible for MSc Chemical Engr ), Due to my no sponsor at all situation, I would need a concrete assistanship over there and I go survive somehow. I know you guys understands the step by step strategies of abroad schooling. Abeg help your brother

Since July 2018, job job job, ( to gather money for GRE and TOEFL cause people say it is needed) but No!!! All my country industry want is a Chemical Engr... Most of them... And I wouldn't let go of the Industry, it's my dream to be a Chemist for industries, proceed to being a process and R& person, formulations and Co. And the Engineering part will cover up for BSc Chemistry weaknesses

I have made up my mind to gather the money for those exams by God's grace.

So friends, as u can see I need a thorough foundational knowledge on MSc in the US. I've got to further. And I'm 25 will be +1 this June. Time is running.
The best give u can impart to me now is Knowledge... It will *MAKE* me

THANK YOU FRIENDS....
WILL BE ANTICIPATING YOUR HELP...
GOD BLESS YOU!!!

There is more funding for msc chemistry and it's less competitive than chemical engineering. There are some schools that don't require GRE for MSc chemistry but you will hardly see any engineering program that doesn't require GRE in USA. My advice is for you to stick with MSc chemistry so you can get funding easily but if your passion is engineering, prepare for GRE and give it a try.

Pefuele:
In that case I dn't need to pay a new SEVIS fee,right?

Yes. You don't need to if the one you paid is not up to 365 days.

tactmayor:
No, I dont have that and do not know anyone who has

Send me a pm

mayDtolu:
Congratulations to you!! Pls, Can you share us how your profile looks like? (Your CGPA, GRE score and co)

Austin peay state university doesn't need GRE and they offer assistanship too.

Pefuele:
Ok,you mean if I have a different SEVIS no and I want to create a new DS-160 to book appointment I will just have to transfer the SEVIS ID?

Just use your new sevis ID for all the forms you are filling

tactmayor:
Na wa o. I thought here is for people to render help. I need someone to please help me send my GRE scores while I transfer in naira. I have use Mastercard, Visa, it is not going

No one is obligated to help you. See it as favour if someone volunteers to do that. By the way, have you tried gtb/access bank mastercard?

Abacino007:
Good day everyone,

I want to book an appointment but I have some doubts about filing my ds160 .

To book a new appointment, Am I to retrieve my previous Ds160 and update any missing information or I am to fill a new ds160?

Thanks.

Make your question clearer.

From what I understood, you need a new ds 160 in other to book a new appointment but you can use your old ds 160 to retrieve your previous details then edit whatever thing you want to edit.

JoeBazz:
I don't know maybe after processing my official transcript I will have to take it to federal ministry of education or education USA
For it to be certified before sending to the school or the official transcript sent straight from my school will do.

Going through the education USA route will cost you money, you have to register with them (registration fee is 200$ but i think the flat rate in naira is around 35k), send your official transcript to them and ask them to forward it to your school.

If you decide to certify it at federal ministry, you will have to get an official copy from your school and certify it at federal ministry of education. Then you send it to the school through post office which takes 21days or use courier services like dhl, ups, fedex.

Any option you choose, you will spend money. Be sure you will get the admission before passing through this stress or just forget the school.

4gunners:
Admit from USF just dropped. MSc. Civil Engineering (structure). No words on funding yet.

Wow congrats!! Their funding for msc normally comes when you resume school

JoeBazz:
Hello house...I got the below message via email from Eastern Illinois university:

I am currently reviewing your application to the MS in Cybersecurity – please know that your transcripts cannot be authenticated. As such, your application will not be moved forward.

Accordingly, I am advising you to mail us an official transcripts certified by the Office of the Federal Ministry of Education in your home country in Nigeria. You have also the option to have your transcripts certified by the Education USA Office in Nigeria. The Education USA is located at the following address in Nigeria:

U.S. Consulate Lagos

EducationUSA Advising Center

Public Affairs Section

2 Walter Carrington Crescent Victoria Island Lagos Nigeria



What do you think I should do in this situation?

Do what they asked for

brainy02:
Can one submit use two different account details without raising a red flag.

That is, submitting a personal bank statement for school applications and take maybe a corporate account to the embassy for interview?

Yes . But personal statement will work well for embassy. Why not maintain same for both since you have funds in your personal bank statement

MyAmericandream:
with full funding?

50% scholarship

Ola9292:

iwriterng:
I am interested in submitting an application (Spring) to two different departments in a university, but I am a bit worried about the implication?

Obviously, the statement of interest would be different, would this not give me off as a confused person?

I am interested in their biological Sciences as well as the Kinesiology program.

I would love to have your opinion on this please.

No, you can go ahead. It's all biology related

Giftedhands33:
Can someone pls respond

No, it's not. They have campus in Luxembourg too

SpatialKing:
Can someone help me with list schools in the USA that don't require any form of test for masters admission for course like Mathematics?

That will be very hard

Rickramzy:
u


Thanks sp very much it took me ages to get this link never knew it can be this easy, I really appreciate!

Be careful though, make enquiry well before using them

twittycutey:
Good evening to the gurus on this forum, please I need someone to clarify this for me. What do they mean if a school says that "assistantships are only available to graduate students regularly accepted into a degree program or academically eligible (must be enrolled full-time into a specific degree program )"
Does it mean that an applicant into a program ( not yet admitted ) cannot apply for their graduate assistanship?
Please I need answers. Help me a sister. This is my first time of applying?
Thanks

Most schools don't have separate application for Graduate Assistanship. So it's awarded to those admitted to a degree program. For schools that have separate application, you can apply for GA after you have gotten admission as your student number will be requested when you are filling the assistantship form.

Gospelozy:
Please guys, is taking a part time program for masters in the States a red flag or is it a normal thing?

Yes. You won't even get visa for a part time program.

JoeBazz:
Is it that I will pay $500 before getting the admission?

No, after getting the admission, you pay 500$ to accept it. They call it deposit fee.

JoeBazz:
Yes

I think you applied to a different program that's outside your first degree, reason why they want to know you and your career plans. They might likely give you conditional admission and give you some EDX courses to study and pass, then u get certification in it and submit to them. If accepted, they have 500$ compulsory fee to pay in order to accept your admission. Their scholarship doesn't pass 5000$ most times. Well the interview is friendly chat, they want to know you.

JoeBazz:
Hi friends...
I got an email from one of the schools I applied for masters that the Masters director of the course I want to study want to have a video interview with me next week to know more about me and my goal. Please what should I expect in this interview?
And how should I prepare for this video chat interview?
Can I ask the man that will interview me about funding and scholarship?
I am waiting for response from you guys because I am a novice in this aspect.
Thanks.

I guess this is yeshiva university
