Sorry about your delay but it's unfortunate that you went with associate degree i20

Kindly apply to a university and and work on your lapses, trust me you will get your visa and you will come back here to thank God and not me.

I hope it's not an agent that helped you with this CC?

I would advise you to defer and apply to another school for spring 2017 or fall 2017, you sevis fee is still valid for one year as from the date of payment.

bayocanny:
Yes, its possible mine is on transit as well

With which airline and where is the stopover

nikiihardehx:
was only asked if have travelled to US before

After that section there is another section where you will be asked if you have travel to another country maybe within the last 5 years or so..

Are you saying you didn't see that section ?

Venek:
I wish d was another centre , I would have given u directives on how to register by urself......sadly none

Are you saying if he registered online by himself with this card the center won't allow him to write the exam over there ?

Abeg those people at the center are saying gibberish and they want to make more money via him.

imperiouxx:
No, they only stand a better chance in Lagos and Abuja.

Reality and true talk!

tolanibb:
l'm sure you understand.

I don't think so to be candid.

KPhantom:
baba, thank you, duly noted... I'm sure many will learn from this..

Let's give the thanks to God

morgan2006:
pls is it true that F1 applicant stands a better chance of visa approval in Abuja consular office? kindly advice

Where do you hear this from?

You stand a better chance at any location provided your prepare well and proved to VO that you are eligible with the Favour and Grace of God

dickoflife:
lol. My bad... i have accepted my mistake.

Wonderful!

Christian129:
Hi all. Abeg can someone apply to two different schools in the same city. For example, University of California and California State University. Abeg, won't those send a wrong message to those guys at the embassy..

Sure it will send a message that you have someone there and you might end up not going to school and stay with the person in CA

But you need to prove and convince the VO why the two schools are in CA only

nikiihardehx:
Pls @just wise and others,
I have an expired UK visa, and a valid UK visa, but while filling my ds-160, there wasn't any question on it... Like. "Do you currently hold a visa or something" was thinking it's gonna be an added advantage......
Or is it wen am in for interview that the v.o will look up ma profile..... Just curious....

But you are asked if you have travel to any country before in you ds160

nikiihardehx:
Hello everyone.... Pls I nid help, my interview is soon
1. I got accepted to a private college dat run associate, bsc degrees on trimester base. But I was accepted for 2years associate degree course in computer information systems (major is computer/information technology services administration nd management). After completion of the course I plan to proceed wif bsc.in information technology... Just gonna ve to do a year top up in d same skul.

2. I graduated 2010, got into a private uni here but stopped due to d poor lectures and facilities, also did ijmb program, got admitted to a federal school here but for education course so I didn't go, also did computer training.
*the question is how do I explain to the v.o, and for my D's160, I only entered high school
Pls help me out with tips
3. I have a valid UK visa is it right to tell d v.o dat i will b visiting ma dad nd uncle in UK for like 3wiks before resuming skul in oct 1
4. My dad also have a valid b1/b2, he hasnt use it alt all, it will expire april nwztyear, is it safe to tell d v.o dat my dad might be going wif ma dad frm london
Pls help

Why 2 years with your profile because the energy, effort, resources that you used to apply and admitted for 2 years can be used to get admission for 4 years, because since 2010 till now is almost 6 years VO will be interested to know what you have been doing since then..

Make sure you try and give answers to what VO ask you and don't tell VO what he didn't ask, i.e if you are ask about US talk about US and not UK. Moreover if questions comes from that angle then you can answer it but if not i do not see a reason why you should talk about it.

If i am not wrong what you planned to tell VO like computer training is just 6 months out of 6 years, In your words you dropped out of private university and didn't attend the federal university, Don't you think that VO will reason the same that when you get there you will do the same since that was the trends you did here and there is probability that you will do the same.

You have work to do..

Flosslive:
My Visa was approved on Monday morning. After the first denial. I scheduled for August 8 I used the same old DS-160 and I was turned back. I believe everything works for a reason and God favored me after paying the third visa fee. Thank you to everyone that scolded me after my first interview. I went back did a research on the school and contacted @Lagosismyhome I forwarded my revised transcript and she was glad to effect some changes to it, after roasting me on the phone saying I bleeped up. Lol
But I didn't shy away from her scolding. Contacted walspring a day to my interview, baba ginger me gave me some hints also.

Me: The Nigeria school curriculum focuses more on the theoretical part and does not offer hands on research opportunities that gives detailed knowledge for my preferred course.
VO: what year did you Finish school?
Me: my high school?
VO: yes
Me: I finished in 2008
VO: it says here you have a diploma in science laboratory technology, does it mean they don't offer medical technology in Nigeria?
Me: There are schools that offer Medical Technology here, but the Nigeria school curriculum focuses more on the theoretical part and does not offer hands on research opportunities that gives detailed knowledge for my preferred course.
VO: What do you want to do after graduation?

VO: did you do Germs?
Me: yes
VO: when?
Me: in my first diploma
VO: your visa have been approved................

Congrats and enjoy your stay in Obamaland

@Bold

I still remember analyzing something on that and what if VO ask about the two ND degree and why not the course for your UG

nellyalph:
I don't mean to support his claims but I think he meant "no school today"..

or no class or lecture for today

tomisinobbm:
It's possible. A pal got his decision this month for spring.
But he was working towards fall, and told them to defer as he didn't want to rush things.

Sure its possible

Christian129:
off? Student dey get off? I smell......

Smelling what

You dont know maybe the meaning is that he doesn't have class or lecture for that day..

SAMUELS3:
Thanks baba, you too much.

Let's give the thanks to God

gunther6:
I see dickoflife is the trending topic here, although I would be the first to correctly deduce dickoflife is an oaf he did not lie about being in the states. We left the same day and met at the boarding gate which was his last sane day I'm afraid. I don't know what he is or isn't lying about, been in the States isn't one of them @warriboy. And he probably isn't lying about the ITIN too at least in Maryland, anyone can apply to the office of the Maryland comptroller and get it in 3 weeks, I leave you to deduce why he needs ITIN.


NB: And please no one should mail me asking redundant and seriously offensive questions about my 'relationship' with purplesummer , it was and off-cuff joke, get over it and if you like her tell her or if you want to know ask her, I will not be replying such mails again.

No be small thing and nah wah...

It is well if our people are still doing this..

tolanibb:
some people like to carry unnecessary wahala for head like gala sha.

abeg explain....

Christian129:
Are you serious? What University is that? Admission for spring in August?

Sure it possible in some schools

Ruffy147:
Hello house..... Pls I need your advice... I did applied for student visa... Applications submitted on May 5 2016 and medical June 16. and I tracked my application last week and it says dispatched to Lagos and since then i haven't recieve any message from Lagos. The school I applied to will be resuming in 3 weeks time.

You posted this in a wrong thread.

I guess you wanted to post this in the Canadian thread

LagosismyHome:
Hehehe what kind of LIE IS THIS

ITIN is not for F1 Student .... . U are funny oo

Foreign students on F-1 are eligible to be employed in the United States, and are therefore eligible to apply for an SSN if they are actually employed in the United States..... so ITIN is only for people who cannot apply for or eligible for SSN. ....

2 months entry, so u are turning to pinky toes that you forget the 30 days rules so how can u have been there 2 months ago . When your previous post said you are a fall semester student

You never hear the new discovery that 1 day in Bubaland is calculated as 2 days in obamaland due to the change era

dickoflife:
oh my so sorry just checked it also. I think it was middle of july but dis is 18th of august abi thats still more than a month abi.. no worry jere i guess was just calculating july and august..

Correct!

Your head don boot now..

dickoflife:

If nah joke, abeg stop am..

Its not up to 2 months... if i am not wrong you left last week in july and we are about to approach last week in August..

Maybe you don approximate am

dickoflife:
ITIN costs 200 dollars and ready in 3 weeks. I been here for 2 months do the maths

Its not up to two months..

Try solve the maths again, maybe typo error

surgeonheric:
please gurus in the house I try to search for cheap school in USA I hardly see it, can someone help me with the list of some cheap one

make use of www.usnews.com

Chiznonso:
Pls When does the admission reply usually comes for Spring admission? I need the answer urgently please

It depend on schools..

Most schools attends to deferment first before new admission.

Most schools will start attending to applicants 2-3 weeks after resumption for previous semester.
