My Transcript as follows


Vo's denied everyone before me
At this stage I was very scared

Me: Good morning ma
No answer
VO: pass me your documents
VO: how did you know about the school
Me: I did research on the Internet about schools that suit my academic career using research tools like Princetonreview.com, usnews.com and EducationUSA
Vo: How many schools did you apply to?
Me: 5
Vo: Name them
Me: mentioned the 5 and location
VO: why Winona state university
Me: because it's the only university that offers a bsc in materials Engineering and I got a scholarship from the school covering almost 50% of my Tuition fee
VO: Am not sure about that, I think a lot of schools offer this
Me: erm it's the only accredited one
VO: ok, so when did u finish in highschool
Me: I finished in 2007 and pursued a bachelors degree in Economics at the university of Ibadan
VO: so you have a Bachelors degree already?
Me: yes ma
VO: and you going for another
Me: yes another in materials Engineering
Vo: what year did you graduate from university
Me: 2012
VO: can I see your transcripts, for your bachelors degree and waec, (shows her)
Vo: did you do any tests?
Me: yes, I did the toefl
Vo:what about the sat, act
Me: No ma'm, the school requested for just one standardised test, any one
Vo: For an Engineering course?
Me: Yes ma
Vo: so what will this degree do for you
Me: It would give me the required skills and knowledge to run my Father's engineering firm
Vo: so what do you do at the moment
Me: I work as an Administrative manager in my Father's company
VO: so you working as an administrative Manager and you wanna go study materials Engineering
me: Yes ma, because I lost my father in the last quarter of 2014, I need to be well equipped to run his company
Vo: ok, can I see your statement of account?
Me: shows her
Vo: whose statement is this? (going through it)
Me: my mom
Vo: what does she do

[/quote][quote author=worry357 post=33385726]You may think that it is clever to find a school without English requirement.
I will make a prediction
It will be a lower qualiyu school.
At your interview the visa officer will see this and question you very hard, such schools are often a reason for rejection.
Even if you get to such a school any employer will know that it is poor quality and the qualfication puts you at the bottom of the pile for a jod.

Much simpler to get English qualification first!
But some reputable schools may wave English proficiency and insist you write GRE/Gmat
TravelRe: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 6 by udeyokay: 4:20pm On May 03, 2015
You have to try and write any of the exams. The fact still remain even if you got admitted on any of the schools that wave toefl and sat you are still required to proof to the Vo that you are a genue student going for study. quote author=curiobling post=33377684]i contacted wayne state university early this wk,after much emails conversations they sent me a link that exempted some countries from writing SAT or TOEFL and its a surprise Nigeria was not listed but liberia was among. i love the sch but now that i dont have toefl or sat and i thought nigeria can study in usa without test of english. i wish to continue my undagrad by transfering my credit pls how true is wayne state[/quote]

I don't think leaving your business for further studies is a bad idea.
Thanks bro
You know all these Visa officers are too smart.I was thinking may be because of my ocupation being business,was what disqualifies my student's visa during my last interview so I decided to find something withing this period before fall session Starts. Even if it would be teaching physics in secondary school.

Please guru would this be okay for the reason I chosed Western illinois university

Western illinois encouraged me with an international ambassador award certificate,
When I was coversating with prof mark s boley who handles classical mechanics, he told me about ongoing research, how autocrash test mainly depends on the laws of physics . This interests me so much because I have intension of changing from auto sells to auto safety desiner.

Gurus. How those it look like?
TravelRe: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 6 by udeyokay: 9:09am On Dec 26, 2014
dcutey:
you could say physics would help in the understanding of auto crash test in order to ensure safe design standards in crashworthiness because the crash test is based on the laws of physics (newton's second law of motion) since the government is thinking of bringing in vehicle manufacturing companies to the country and you would love to move from the buying and selling of cars to the actual design for improved safety.
Love this clue it makes sense.

Please guru in the house.
Assuming they asks me this
Vo what are u going to do with this certificate
Me: I want a career change
Vo how? This job is paying you well why would you change?
Me: I need to start planning my self,because presently Nigeria govt is on the mission of bringing companies that would start manufacturing vehicles and this would definitely decrease the demand of used vehicles in this country
So I will love to complete my education career in the course that I studied then seek employment in any of our higher institutions here as a senior lecturer.
TravelRe: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 6 by udeyokay: 6:35am On Dec 23, 2014
[quote author=Stewee post=29123094]Bros you can simply tell the VO you want a career change(If you can develop points about your passion for physics and all that good stuff)...it's a long shot but at least it's something. at least you have a sme going and that can support you... Just develop good points to back your claims.

Or, You could apply to your school for some other course that's relates to you sme then change to physics(the love of your life).

..im
But if the Vo asks me how would this my masters contribute to my present job
Then me say: No way, that the job is my present source of income I just need a career change which is inline with my 1st degree and presently, Nigerian Govement is bringing in companies that would start manufacturing their own vehicles now they are on the mission of discouragin people from buying used vehicles that is the more reason I want a career change and decided to complete my masters in my related course so that I could become a senior lectures in any of the top Nigeria universities .please guru contribute
