Efetobore1980:sorry I’m reading your response to her. Would you advise me to go ahead with my bro Canadian account (he is on work visa ) or my a family friends account here in Nigeria (I would say my uncle on paper) or it really doesn’t matter. my bro is work visa as his wife is schooling in Canada. I really don’t know what’s best because the responses I’m get is just very conflicting. One told me since he is not a relation I should stay clear. Another told me so far as my bros account is legit it doesn’t matter. But how do I explain I have relatives abroad. Please can you help. |
Godgivenchild:Hi ! Thank you so much. But I don’t have extra funds to pay for percentage, as I’m doing this on my own, with little to no funds. But thank you nevertheless. |
[img][/img] Efetobore1980:thank you so much. That’s really the only option I have. And I was given time to request an I-20. I didn’t want to use a foreign account but I don’t really have a choice |
Please is it advisable to submit my brother’s account for bank statement He has 7k dollars in his account which is about 4k American dollars and my deficit is 2.7k American dollars. I was awarded full funding and stipend. Please can anyone advise/assist me. Thank you |
LCMedia:Hiii I couldn’t get the money to self fund my 2.7k in my account, so I’m just gonna use my brothers bank statement but its a Canadian bank statement. And I was given deadline to submit. Is that okay please ? |
Taal17:Hiii I couldn’t get the money to self fund my 2.7k in my account, so I’m just gonna use my brothers bank statement but its a Canadian bank statement. And I was given deadline to submit. Is that okay please ? |
Taal17:You’re absolutely correct. Thank you so much. I’ll keep practicing potential interview questions. |
LCMedia:Okay thank you so much. I thought they usually check this type of things, when I tried applying for a visa in 2015 an agent told me to keep 10,000 pounds (2 million) in my account for about moths which I did. Also, ive been working for 3 years now. But i will put money in my account and use the bank statement in my I-20 |
Taal17:okay thank you so much. I joined this thread after getting my admission and funding, I read through the entire thread and a large percentage is getting denied visa. So I’m trying not to make mistake at all. I will deposit a specific amount in my savings account then. And then go from there. Thank you for your assistance! I really appreciate |
Wokeupandslayed: |
Godgivenchild:Okay I will. |
Taal17:thank you so much for responding. I just have a little question, will it be weird that the money was just put in my savings ? Also, would it be sketchy again if I have let’s say 5k dollars or 4k dollars in account ? Like the equivalent of 4k or 5k dollars in naira. |
Godgivenchild:It’s not possible to use my parents. If it was, I wouldn’t be in this dilemma, unfortunately I can’t use their account. That’s why I’m asking |
Efetobore1980:so you’re saying that I should declare personal funds ? |
Godgivenchild:They can’t be of help. |
Can anyone please help me I have a deficit of 2748 dollars, my health insurance and general fee was partially covered. But my tuition, non residence fee, some other fees was completely covered alongside a $13,400 stipend too. I’m currently filling out my I-20 paperwork and there’s a part that says “Does this amount cover the total financial support necessary for your first year of study as outlined above?” When I say “No” I’m asked to provide a bank statement. At the same time I can’t say yes because I have partial general fee and health insurance My uncle was supposed to let me use his bank statement for his deficit but he said he can’t be of help anymore. Someone advised me to be self funded. I should put about $5,000 in my savings account and send over my bank statement for my I-20. Please would you guys advise me to do that? Because I know when filling a de -160 form I would be asked about my salary which I would say is 150-200, So how is it possible I have 5000 dollars in my account. Also I can look for a way to get the money by next week. It would reflect on my bank statement that I just put the money. Would it not be sketchy. ? Please can someone advise me on what to do Next ? Im really confused. |
Agape123:Okayyy |
resolution2020:lmaooooooo I got rejected. I wasn’t even accepted with no funding. Outright rejection. I got the email on 18th Feb to check my application portal and i didn’t get in. I applied on Dec 15 the deadline. I do hope you get in though. I do believe they send out people that got in their acceptance way later The uni I got into with funding my email came in 4 and a half month after the Deadlime. But others got their email wayyy before me. So be hopeful and keep praying like your life depends on it |
resolution2020:I applied at UMass for fall 2025 PhD |
Agape123:How do you check dms ? |
vivalavida:Hey you absolutely have to read and prepare like you are writing an exam. You will be asked what kind of research you want to do, and your previous research experience. What faculty member you’re interested in working with and why. Based on what your type of research is on, you will be asked questions on that reason. Like why do you want to do that particular and your goal with conducting such research. Basically what your plans are for your study. What concentration? Why that? You have to be very thorough, if you care about finding anyway. Dont forget you’re competing with Americans, Russians, Chinese, Indians, Turkish and Pakistani people and more! So read very well and be knowledgeable on your course and faculty. Be confident. Getting admission with funding required me to READ A LOT. So tap into that. Above all Gods grace. I wish you good luck. |
Agape123:Thank you so much. It’s a teaching assistantship! I didn’t write any exams. No toefl, (very difficult as I didn’t school in Nigeria, so a lot of universities didn’t wave toefl for me) also no gre, no gmat I have a very high gpa though (graduated with high honors/ first class my bachelor’s program.) I submitted 3 letters of recommendation, resume and statement of purpose ONLY. |
Hello everybody. I secured a fully funded masters to America. Covers tuition, 13k stipend and partial health insurance . I have a 2700 deficit though from health insurance, general fee and other fee.A friend told me to check Naira land to prep and get information about visa. Omo I read this entire thread and it has made scared. The amount of people getting rejected even with funding. I’m so scared I don’t know what to do. |
