Sorry about your loss. If possible, gather strength emotionally and re-evaluate yourself before applying again. Its not easy to lose a loved one but you'd be fine.

titoakala:
Thanks for the info! You have any idea of schools i can choose?

I don't because you preference might not be my preference. People pick based on location, ranking, climate, scholarship/funding, private /public, size, etc.
So I don't know your preference.

Cheers

titoakala:
Sorry about that, am new here thats why. Want to go for undergraduate and i just finished my ND in computer science.. have not taken any test yet, just want to register for toefl.. Thaks

Alright. You'd definitely have to take SAT and TOEFL. Some schools can waive both, but that's a one chance stuff.
And if you need funding, you have to take tests definitely.
After that, your applications follows, after that, your i20 arrives, after that you go get your visa and viola, you are in the abroad!

Cheers.

titoakala:
Congrats bro, pls i need help on some infos about how to apply for student visa and which school is okay to apply to.. Willl really appreciate ur help. Thanks

The reason you're probably not getting a response is you're not been specific, you want a student visa and schools to apply to. Are you going for high school, undergrad or postgrad? You didn't tell us course. You didn't even say anything about you whether you'd love funding or not, whether you've taken any test or not?

Cheers.

Walspring:
Try you card and it will work or send me pm to help

His card won't probably work. I once had pay an application fee over the phone.
That's how man ended up looking like a credit card scammer

emma1996:
Am using my dads company's account for my F1 visa what do I need to show to the consular?

adup:
Ask ur dad to go to his bank for statement of his account for the last 3 to 4 months and take it to embassy,dey might request for it and dey might not.... Stand to be corrected

See Ehn, take any document that relates to whatever he does to avoid stories that touch.

Cheers.

You'll need sufficient data to download all the materials.

Hello ma'am. Been thinking of this, why don't we post the link for the GRE materials, toefl material and visa transcripts and any other thing on the first page of the thread so we just refer to the first page when the need arises. It'd be easier that way.
Someone with a spot on the first page can volunteer to modify his post.
My 2 cents.

Cheers.

Help guys.

From my little knowledge, if youre a STEM person, you could stay back for 36 months.
If you're lucky to get an employer or job that's willing, they will file your working visa.

I stand to be corrected.
Cheers.

VISA APPROVED!!!!
First, idobale fun obaluaye. Hearer of prayer.
It'll all started this time last year. Thank God I found this visa paradise. You guys are truly a blessing. A day to my interview, I land for obalende, book one random room for lewis street. Next moved out straight to Walter carrignton(me wey I nor sabi anywhere for lag), lost for road. Thank God for that Nigerian Samaritan that helped me out. Naso I land for the us consulate. Asked the security if the place was actually us consulate, he said yes. Told him I have an interview the following day, he advised I come early as people are fond of coming earlier b4 their appointment( my mind say make I sharply put street o.t. but I couple say make dem nor deny me before my interview). Fast forward second day I was there around 5.10am, people don dey there aidy, wonder if people nor dey sleep . immediately I saw the security working towards us, I just do a Kenny . So, I was the second person on the queue. We do all their normal parole. Now in the maim room where future are decided. We do the normal scanning then straight to the next line, still the second person. Found out na window 6 I go dey(looks Chinese bakan bakan young guy) immediately I remembered some folks said he denies and don't give time for explanation. That moment I prayed that God should do the best. The guy in front of me was approved. Next, Gods own scholar(these folks are a wonderful family) second born. Nazo I stand like one professor of mathematics lol, d comfy come.

Me: good morning, how was your night.

VO: good morning. (Didn't answer night, I sha couple say nothing dey happen)
VO: so why are you going to us?
ME: to pursue my PhD degree in mathematics at the university of Memphis after which I'll be coming back to take up a lecturing and research position at futa.

VO: why this university?
Me: am keen on joing prof Thomas hagen research group because he has an ongoing research that matches mine( this time I dey use hand dey describe, dey smile like say I won lotto). The purpose of my research with him is to understand the interaction between turbulence and wave which I believe will help me provide measures that will help reduce the effect of man made and natural disasters that befall our coastal ....vo cuts in....but I nor mind I complete my sentence ....coastal areas in naija.

VO: What are you going to do after your studies?
Me: I'll be coming back to Nigeria to take up a lecturing and research position at futa. Am also going to become a research consultant to Nigeria environmental management agency with a view to carrying out a research that'll improve.....vo cuts in again...(this point he stared at my i20 again and start typing like he's been doing since the interview Adam)

VO: so PhD in maths. When did you get your MSc?
Me: ooh actually b.tech was in 2014.

VO: (looks at i20 for some time) Do you have the letter from your professor confirming this funding?
Me: yes, I gave it to him

VO: (after reading for some seconds) this is so nice
Me: yes very great. Thank you. **I wan talk but I reason the guy nor too like talk**

VO: **types for some seconds**puts my passport in that kolo...you'll need your i20 at point of entry. Pick up your visa at this point. Congrats.
Me: thank you so so much. Thanks again.

Walked out and started jubilating nio....was like chai nah me be this. One random lost boy finally given victory.
NB: it not a complete success yet without my FAM christian129, Adebimpe and all my Gods own scholar family visas. Pray God grant you guys your heart desires(admission, funding , favor, anointing etc).
I will never forget your undivided attention and concern walspring. My love wishes goes to lagsmacrib for your love, care, time, experience (I dey solicit for more than Nairaland and mail sontin o...u understand na ). Oludare, mehn this guy DOPE. Thanks for the ginger and insight. God father Kenny, chai...window seat abi naso we go roll. Friend turn blood, CHRISTIAN129 this guy is from another planet, (your visa is a success aidy, and nor forget our parole. that big Disney cruise for Bahamas). Gods own scholars you're the best. Wish you all success in your visa hustle.

Walspring:
Why lieing and claiming you have arrived when you have not even start at all

Baba, forgive him. Him don humble himself.
Once again, thread with caution.

God bless us.

OluDare01:
Walspring don enter professional level for MMM

Boys are not smiling. Abi you don't know there's economic "reception"

LagosismyHome:
The bold can never be a crime. it a legal means of transportation like a plane .

Alright.
Just as you advised one to have plans for connecting flight. Do you need to buy a ticket before hand or its something you can do on arrival?

LagosismyHome:
Are you sure you are really going to school .....lol joking
but i think going 30 days is fine . there is no law against that and yes it is possible to go spend time with a friend or family before you resume . The POE might not ask for your connecting flight but have it in case they ask

Thanks for the response and as per connecting flight.
Is it also a crime to opt for bus instead of flight to save cost? Not minding the distance. The koko is sha to get to the final destination.

Cheers.

itunu8:

Sha don't do like the others that would tell us "transcripts loading" and we wont hear from them again until they have problems.

Cheers.

Hello house, is advisable to enter the states exactly or about 30 days before resumption?
Someone was telling me its a no-no and might raise suspicion at the point of entry about where'd I'd be staying before school resumes and advised about two weeks before resumption. I declared I don't have family on my ds 160 so there's no point saying I'm going to visit any uncle or aunty. But I intend to stay with a friend before resumption. But he isn't in the same state though. Or is it a crime not to go to your school's destination straight?

Walspring:
You need help and you are going from one brothel to another? Its deliverance that you need if i am not wrong!

Infact God is our help in ages past, i don't know if you can sing that song.

The truth of the matter is that the bad eggs have spoiled the good ones and we can don't know the good eggs, so many things had happened back stage and offline in this thread, also if you had joined MMM community since last one or two months ago who knows maybe you would have GH worth the cost of SAT fee..

Lastly i find it hard to believe you because sent me another wrong SAT login. I guess the handwriting is boldly written on the wall for me to see clearly

Bros, you understand the term GH?
Izz like you have joined MMM gang already?

Did you just walk in there or you have some insider?
Also what's the financial implication?

Mr exchanger, you too want to go to amelika
Abi you are no more buying payooner and PayPal?

youngmoney416:
I have been saving, it hasn't been easy for me. I am aware of other expenses but making high score in SAT gives me hope of full ride scholarship. Am sorry for always asking for help late just like the last i seeked for help. I have no negative intention or what so ever, am not that kind of person. If you read all my post, you will see I have the passion to pursue my dreams abroad. I only lack the support and I work to support myself. Please bear with me.

Alright. I understand. I wont be help out financially though.
Email me tolutimehin@gmail.com my PMs doesn't work. I just went down this route and my brother is doing the same at the moment.

youngmoney416:
I will definetalely pay back

Not trying to be pessimistic here but, SAT should be least of your concern here financially, you still have to pay application fees, TOEFL is there too, you might evalaute too, etc. How are you going to cope? And you know this stuff is time based.
Push in your applications late and schools would be telling you stories that touch about how funds have finished.

Dude, I'm not trying to pick on you but your past posts contradict the way you portray yourself on here.

Goodluck once again.

youngmoney416:
Please, I need your help in paying for my SAT which the deadline for december series is tomorrow. Someone from this thread accepted to help me for the november series but wasnt possible because I didn't complete my details including passport and am really desperate to write this december series. Please help me out, I believe with a good SAT getting full ride scholarship will be easy. I have been saving but what I have saved isn't just enought yet, please a brother.

Oga, no offence.
But why do you always come at the last minute. You should have done this since.
Goodluck sha.
