Good Morning Nairaland.

Please a quick question.
In Building travel history, which countries are good choices to visit?
And are not too expensive?��

Good Afternoon Everyone...
Good afternoon NL, please is there any Lagos Search date that I can be added to?

Thank you!

dzee1:
Pls can anyone help advice in this.
Thanks

Just as you've explained here, explain to the VO.
It's a legal pathway for relocation, it shouldn't do you any harm.

It was helpful.

Sunkanmi64:
People saw June and July regular dates for Lagos today, so I'd advise you to join date search groups if you haven't yet.

Do you have the link to any sir?
We've been dropping numbers on the forum, but we've still not been added.

I really hope something is done about the unavailability of dates very soon.

To think it's the same in Lagos and Abuja, and even EA dates are farther than resumption dates.
Mehn.

Is it always like this?

Smellymouth:
Visa approved
Graduate student visa.
First attempt.
Abuja embassy.
White female V.O.
Program : Masters in business Administration.
School : University of Bridgeport, Connecticut..

Good day my people. First of , all thanks goes to GOD. Trust me guys, GOD is real..I realized today GOD is truly faithful. I have been a silent reader here for close to a year now. Decided to go offline and carefully study this thread to avoid distractions..I made sure I read through all the pages on this thread including every transcript posted here. To everyone who has posted transcripts, you guys are a blessing.

So I got to abuja late last night due to some unforeseen circumstances. I woke up to the sound of pouring rain and thunder this morning around 5:30am. Hurriedly had my bath , got dressed and tried requesting a bolt ride all to no avail probably due to the unavailability of fuel and the heavy fall of rain.. I quickly glanced at my watch and noticed it was almost 6:40am and my interview was scheduled for 7:30am..That was when panic sets in. I immediately removed my shoe, picked up my documents (placed them in a plastic folder), kept my shirt inside a polythene bag, took some money and ran out in the rain wearing just my trouser pants and a singlet to get a cab from Maitama to the USA embassy

I nor kuku send.. Fortunately I found one at Panama street, jumped inside and got dressed in the vehicle. Devil na mumu.. Werey wan use rain take stop me .

I entered the embassy and I noticed a white lanky man was dishing out blue slips to everyone he interviewed . I silently prayed to GOD not to get to his counter. Fortunately, the lady at window 11 called out when it was my turn.

ME: Good morning Ma'am.
V.O: Good morning, how are you?.
ME: I am fine..
V.O: Pass me your passport and i-20..
V.O: What are you travelling to the usa For?
ME: I am travelling to the USA to pursue my master's degree in Business Adminstration at University of Bridgeport, Connecticut..
V.O: Why this university?
ME : I choosed University of Bridgeport, Connecticut because the university offered me an admission into business administration and management coupled with courses tailored towards my career aspirations. I will also be privileged to work with Professor Greg Kogan, whose research covers multiple disciplines including economics and Business analytics. His works have been published in leading journals including International Journal of Commerce and E-business Management..
V.O: What is your post study plan?
ME : I intend to do.... Immediately village people stepped in.. I totally forgot everything...I blurted out, kaiii. Omo!! She smiled and said,"take a deep breath"

I took a deep breath, smiled, thanked her and continued. ".. I intend to do a lateral career switch from my present role as a project manager to Bleep manager within the same company. This MBA program will enable me build competency to be able to function as a Bleep..
V.O: Types endlessly then asked ,"Why the USA"?
ME: Studying in the USA will expose me to research opportunities which can't be achieved here in Nigeria. Also it's a known fact that the USA remains the No 1 in the world when it comes to innovation, technology and most especially business.
V.O: Okay. Was just typing without looking at me. Eventually glanced at me and asked, " I can see you have some fundings, who will pay the deficit?
ME: My uncle will be the one paying half of it and I already have savings that would cover the rest of the expenses.
V.O : Everything seems good here. Types , types, types( my heart was beating profusely).
After a long wait, she gave me the white slip and muttered a whole lot of stuffs. I nor even listen. I quickly grabbed the slip before she changes her mind, thanked her and literally fled.

All thanks to y'all. The journey started a year ago. And thanks to GOD, today it's a reality. This forum is a blessing. I did everything by myself without an agent's help. I gt everything I need from this thread...I painstakingly studied all the transcripts posted here and it was what I used to prepare for my interview Justwise, one love man... May GOD crown all our efforts with success.

Lemme go and buy my winter jacket...

I'm applying to the same school!

obajoey:
I will share this same good news soon, Amen.
Congrats.

Adewale1603:

Will it stop showing limited if I work with Windows 7?
I was thinking the external USB wifi card was faulty.

Adewale1603:

Windows 10

Good afternoon house.
Anytime I connect my mobile hotspot to my laptop, with a USB wifi card, it shows limited.
Connected but no internet access.

What can I do?

Malone122:

Any scholarship ?

No scholarship.
14,700

Good morning NL.
I'm an undergraduate student, and I currently got admission to BGSU.
Waiting for my I-20.

How long will it take the school to verify the bank statement and everything before they send the I-20?

Date don dey finish

TrillionBrains:
Hey guys, what do y’all make of UG schools asking for enrollment deposits before issuance of I20?
It’s really weird they ask for this even after authenticating my financial docs. I need your views on this please

Which schools asked?

Lightning360:
HBCU will be much more to your advantage, there's already an established community of black students there.

HBCU is your best bet esp for undergrads.

Now what's HBCU, it's Historical Black colleges and university, a seemly group of colleges and university in US with rafts of black students studying there.

Thank you very much.

Good evening house.

I'm having a hard time finding schools that accept WAEC, and uses It for admission.

Are there any UG applicants in the house?

Oluwatosin2000:
Thanks ��. Please can you help me with the application process?

I'm applying to that school.

LeviAckerman:
Illinois State Uni
March 1st with financial consideration
May 1st without

Does the Illinois State University accept waec?
And please what does with and without financial consideration mean?

emmanuelle27:
what type of computer school?

I don't understand your question.

Good evening house.

I attended a computer school after graduation from SS school. That counts as post secondary studies right?

Good afternoon NL.
Does anyone know about the Illinois State University (ISU) ?
Or anyone here is thinking of applying or has applied there? For UG tho.

I'm trying to broaden my applications to different schools for computer science.

dodoyinsolar202:
Hello.
Usually six month. Except the school demands otherwise.

Thank you very much.

Good afternoon NL.
How recent should the bank statement for the i-20 be??

KemLaughs:
Fill your Designated School Official's Details - DSO

Alright.
Thank you very much ma.

Good morning NL.
Please I don't understand the US contact section on the Ds-160 form.

What do you fill if you have no one in the US?

There are not many undergraduate applicants here

kastgeraldino:
Do you think the visa official knows or cares about which school is test-optional? Just apply to any accredited schools that's not an online program. But still do the standardized test just to have it.

Thank you very much for the information.

Good morning NL.
Is it a red flag when a US F-1 applicant applies for a test optional school?

Good morning everyone.
I have a quick question.
Please is the IELTS examination a necessity when applying for admission?

I'm really lost here cause I don't know where to start reading from on the thread.
Everything I'm seeing is just priority.
I'd appreciate the guidance of any experienced person.

oyinlove15:
I got a mail

Actually they had passed the medical I did for my previous application on the 13th of this month but that was because I sent webform in December that they should either use the one that has expired though days apart from when I reaplied or they send medical request. I was just about to give the day out to someone here when I got their mail.

So the Medical result has expired?

In some cases, the applicant just has to re-send the medicals slip via webform, instead of going for a medical test again.

oyinlove15:
They just sent me medical request o

Please is this the form for medical request

Congratulations.
Did you get a mail or you just logged in and saw this on your profile.
