OMOLARAO: My concern is i hope the fact that am married and my dad is paying for the tuition does not in anyway jeopardize my chance.
Your marriage cant jeopardize your chance cos it shows a strong home tiers and pls go along with your marriage certificate.

Since its ur dad that will sponsor you it wont but all you have to do is to convince the VO why your dad is your sponsor so that it can give u more creditbility and chance.

davton69: Wow wat a great forum...

I worked with an oil servicing company in Lagos during that time I applied for OTC conference in the US which I wanted to sponsor myself but its quit unfortunate that I was denied. The visa, Reason: no strong ties in Nigeria also am single.....

Now I left the company to another due to some personal reasons, thou where I am now pay less but I have peace of mind...

My issue is this, am applying for my masters program in the US and personally I can sponsor myself cos apart from my salary I still own a company that do handle some projects. (There is enough fund) but I want to seek for the advice. Of the house pls... Should I apply for my student visa as a self sponsor or do I get a sponsorship letter from my company stating that they will sponsor my program even thou we know am gonna sponsor myself....

What's the best way to apply and get my visa approved??

Thanks

Awaits ur response ....
As for me i will advise u to do GRE and Toefl.. After that when you are appearing at the embassy, get a study leave letter from your company so that it can help u to prove strong home tiers

Since u can sponsor yourself, maybe u tell the VO that out of your personal savings, is what u will be use to sponspor yourself and if ur school grant u GA then u can also state that along with it.

OMOLARAO: hello house, good day to you. Am new here but i need your urgent advice.
i was denied a student visa at the lagos office last month, am married but my dad is sponsoring my masters program.
i think this is the major reason i was refused.
i need your advise as i intend going back to the embassy.
is it possible that i was rejected based on my sponsor and marital point cos i believe i nailed all the other questions asked.
If i may ask do u write toefl or gre before u went for ur interview cos marital status is one of the key way to prove home tiers.

Can you just write how you were first interviewed and that will help us to point out the errors there...

Chatters: Thanks, that was helpful. I'm really perplexed. I only ticked a box during toefl registration that I wouldn't mind receiving messages from their partners. I hope to get other opinions so it wouldn't be that i have wasted my time on them.
thats good and try get other opinions/options and pick the best for yourself and moreover there is nothing as good as scholarship/funding oooo

Chatters: Good day house, you are all doing a great job here encouraging each other. I have a situation I would love the house to help me resolve. I have constantly been receiving messages from the university of Notre Dame to apply to their master degree program. First was a message from the graduate school. Another came from the department. Yet another came from the program coordinator. Then came a message from the departmental graduate recruitment committee members. I know I didn't apply to this school. They said they got my details from toefl after scoring 102 in the test. My question now is this: is the university of notre dame a good school? What are my chances of getting admission? I have an undergraduate cgpa of 3.6 and my final two years of study produced a gpa of 4.2. It was stated in their website that the average cpga for admission is 3.6 out of 4. I emailed them about this and they replied that cgpa is not what they base their admission on alone. I asked them the possibility of offering admission since Nigeria is not allowed to write GRE in the country. They replied that I should get ets to send them a message that I was not able to test.they even sent me enticing messages like being offered over $26k funding on being admitted to their research based program. please house what should I do? Should I go ahead and apply? Is this for real?
Its possible for u to recieved message from schools you listed on your toefl only if u filled that when registering for the toefl.

You can go to your school website to read more about the school or you try google.com or usnews.com etc to know more about your school of choice.

That your cgpa is good for you to get admission in any great schools in USA.

You can also write GRE in contonu or ghana, just check as from page 45 to present page u will see how to go about it.

Sicne they are given u funding, i will advise u to go for it.. I hope this help before other guru's write more..

kessyur: Hello Gurus, please your candid opinions on my concern will be highly appreciated.

I was denied the student visa in July 2012. I feel greatly that the reason cos i did told the VO thati have a sister in the states who is a citizen as filled on my ds160. Hence i had no choice than to say yes when he asked.

Again, i have another interview on Dec 6th, 2013. This time around i completed a new ds160 indicating that i have no relative in the US. And if asked, i intend answering that i used to have i has since left for Nigeria in Dec 2012 to a pick up an appointment.

Guys what are your stakes on thishuhhuhhuh?

thanks for the upcoming responses.
Dont lie pls and stick to what u said in ur first interview cos everything u said earlier was documented oo...
If i may ask is ur sister living in the state where the skool u applied for is located?

Von Bismark: 6 hat tricks and was still nt the highest goal scorer, what did cr7 achieve last yr that made him deserve the award more than messi which record did he break precisely?
Guy i sabi ppl like u well.. FYI let me take u back to CR7 2nd season in la liga do u realise the guy was more outstanding than messi and messi was given the award? Even this previous season messi record does not lift him to be this year world best, if u think messi hogest goal score record he set will be use, u are sitting on a leaf cos that record had already been used in order for him to win last year award. So talk abt another messi record..

If i may ask u, how many hat trick has messi scored in his career?

Cimbi: why not a chelsea player last 2 season when chelsea won the champions league
Ask urself which of chelsea players played better during that year? And how many goals, assist, etc did the play pulled out..

Let me tell u this award has been hijacked from its original vision and goal by fifa/uefa since it was invented.. Maybe u should read the history of the award..

Lastly, ppl vote for their personal choice of player and not what the play had played in a year. because some coaches, players and captain just voted for the players they love and they like but they didnt look beyound/above which most ppl here are doing now and that remind me early dis year wen some ppl said mikel or moses should given CAF MVP when i said pritoria is better than 2 of them during the tournament until CAF gave it to that guy.

PurestBoy: Bros compare the statistics of Messi & Sneijder in the year 2010 from Jan 1st - Dec 31st. The award is not a seasonal award nor a team award but individual award. Messi beat anybody hands down in 2010. Milito won the best player in seria A, best player in Inter team, won the best foreign player, Robben won the best Dutch player, so tell me how Sneijder should win world best player? If Chelsea had won the CL the last final they played Man U, CR7 would still have won the world best player cos of his outstanding performance that year, why didn't anybody advocate for Chelsea player to win world best even when they won CL and Europa? This is best individual award & there's no way anyone can tell me Sneijder was better than Messi in the Calendar year 2010 cos Sneijder faded after the World Cup while Messi was redhot while the year continued.
Guy i disagree with some of ur post here cos if its individual awards messi did not deserve the award the year ronald score more than 6 hat tick in a season, broken la liga records etc.

Well i cant imagine u saying sneider faded award after year 2010 and messi still redhot because 2010 reocords wont enter 2011 records so why u comparing the 2 together. Shey kaka play better after 2007 when CR7 won the award 2008?

I want u to stop being sentimental here even last year in terms of individuality CR7 still pass messi and i can state it for u if u want references. We should stop doing like fifa on this thread because most of us here dont watch back of TV.

Jenkizo: Christiano Ronaldo is a better and complete striker to Messi anytime anyday though FIFA have been playing bias umpire all along by sentimentally handpicking Messi as world best which Sepp Blater recently admitted. That been said, if Messi and Christiano can exchange clubs, messi might not score up to 20 league goals in R Madrid but CR7 may end up scoring 100 league goals for Barca in a season. Barca is a collection of talents. CR7 should be voted the best in the game in 2013. Messi won world best when spainish team and Inter-milan won FIFA World Cup and UEFA Champions League respectively. CR7 deserve the prize.
I tire oo.. I think say nah only me sabi say messi no worth world best for the year 2010..

There a alot of learners here who started watching football just a year ago and those people are anit-ronaldo and barca fans.

I pity fifa and fifa be like nigeria national assembly cos they are corrupted bunch of bias thieves. Can someone tell me why blatter no wan leave fifa president post if not for bias?

Have u people even imagine pele comments concerning fifa world best player whenever a brazilian is involved? That is when fifa will give it to brazilian play and i am still waiting for pele's comment in 2 years time when he will say neyer is world best and messi is not and by that time we will all know weytin fifa dey hide cos pele go open their yarnsh.

Haters, i want u to know that CR7 better pass Messi in everything for football.. (shot power, jump power, speed, free kick, body, height, heading, ariel ball, even diving.. Lol) etc

Tell me weytin messi play for 2010 to make him elligible to win that award 2010? I still have another year i can point out to u that messi didnt play better but he was crowned world best.

Manchester United won their fifth consecutive home match against Arsenal, their best top-flight run against the Gunners since Feb 1964-Oct 1967

David Moyes won his 1,000th league point as a manager in his 634th match

montelik: It wasn't so much that Jones played anything special, before some start getting carried away and over hyping him. The problem is that the 2nd half we were playing with a half fit midfield partnership as it was clear neither Cleverley or Carrick were fully fit (particularly Cleverley who looked almost unfit). By the 2nd half Carrick was getting gassed and added to Cleverley's lack of fitness we couldn't continue or 1st half approach effectively.
Bro, i would have asked if u watched back of TV cos i dont know why u said Jones wasn't so much played anything special.. Cant u see that the marking for in that middle reduce in 2nd half when the unfit cleverly came in and it makes the job to tired carrickk.

All i know is that anytime Jones plays from the midfield, he is always hardworking and excellent.
