Good evening all, please I urgently need your help. I just finished filling my ds160 form now only for me to realise there’s a mistake in my month of birth. The person filled March instead of April. Please what do you suggest I do as I cannot make corrections since the form has been submitted. Kindly treat as urgent!

Hope it has not been linked with the visa appointment confirmation, if not you can still fill it again.

Demonicide:
congrats ke, I haven't applied yet. Hopefully by June. But notwithstanding, I still claim it. I'm expecting to hear good news from your end come may.

Amen that you

Demonicide:
Hope you're enjoying CSU? Hope to join you soon.

Congratulations lady, I pray when I go for my interview in May I should be favoured. Allah help me

Julbu:
If the appointment at the embassy is written as 6.30 could it am or pm.. Pls Help in the house

it is am

goodemma20:
which of the EIU campuses where you admitted into?

I think it is Charleston which is the main campus, but I don't know if EIU has several campuses

Its been a while i hear a success story of visa here. People please post your visa interview transcripts to boost we that are planning to have our interview this month or next month.

goodemma20:
A very easy way is to use google. Add the word "ranking" to the name of a school and google it. For example, If you want to find the ranking of Boston university, you'll google Boston university ranking. The very first result will tell you the ranking of the school. If no ranking shows up, it's probably a one building school and should be avoided.

Thanks for your earlier reply please what do you know about Eastern Illinois University, please people should help me out about the school. I was unable to get the school ranking online.

I have been given admission and waiting for my I-20 to arrive so am already planning for my visa interview

toluene1234:
Good morning house. I need your urgent attention. I have GRE exam tomorrow, please someone should help on how to get to JKK HOUSE 229 IKORODU ROAD ILUPEJU, LAGOS.

Your feedback would be appreciated.

God bless you all.

Thanks

Depending on where you are coming from, any way if you are coming from the island or Surulere or Yaba and environs board a bus going to ketu, alight at Anthony then cross to the other side if the road and walk backward you can easily ask anyone where JKK House is, it is not far from there but if you are coming from Oshodi board a bus going to Yaba you can tell the driver or conductor that you will alight at JKK house, some might be nice and will drop u at the front of the building but if not, you will have to alight at Palm grove then walk backward and ask.

learner007:


IMO, I would say you should stick to your dad since your I-20 bears that and that is the document needed for interview. Another thing is that if I were the VO, I won't be so convinced that a company is ready to part with millions of naira to train someone who will be away for two years with no assurance of coming back. They would rather send you on short trainings abroad and have u come back and infect the system with your new knowlegde. I'm only talking from experience anyways. I might be wrong.

Thank you brother, I really appreciate

learner007:


Thanks bro, msinus.com really scared me back then with the profile of such schools (GRE of 330+). But I Sha just did it anyway. I pray that, in your forthcoming visa interview, The Lord will grace every of your utterances. As soon as it gets to your turn, divine grace and favour shall be activated for you. I'm happy for you. Success!

Amen thanks bro

Good afternoon Gurus in the house, I will like to ask a question. On my i-20 that was issued by my school, my Dad was my sponsor but now my company is ready to sponsor me. How do I go about it because my company just gave me a letter of prove of sponsorship. If I am been asked who will sponsor me am I to reply with my company or my dad or both of them.

If I said both and I was asked why didn't u filled both on my i-20 what can I say to defend my self please.

learner007:
The weak profile I presented to UIUC that God turned to Gold!

*GPA :4.31/5
*COURSE: MATHEMATICS (TASUED)
*GRE: 310 (Q158, V152 AWA 2.5)
*TOEFL :95 (S 23 R 21 W26 L 25)
*Work exp: 4 YRS WORKING IN A BRITISH School
*Programme applied for : MS Teaching of Maths
*SOP: strongly worded with good use of professional jargons
*LOR: DEPUTY VC, lecturer and Head of School of my work place
*Application fee : $90
*Faith

Now I know that God can use an egg at times to crack a kernel. May He alone be praised

Honestly, I have just been happy and confused since this offer came in. E just be like visa approval. I can't wait for that ultlimate feeling of visa approval too. Thanks to all who have sent me private msgs of congrats. Yours will surely happen in style too. Keep believing!

Guy this isn't a weak profile, it was an high profile the school knows what they wanted. They can see in potential in you. Carry on bro, I pray Almighty God favour me in my Visa Application and grant me Visa approved. We will meet in US

Umuks:
Good morning guys,
Please I need ur advice urgently, a friend of mine made a mistake while filling his DS-160 form. His intended date was suppose to be change to 3-05-2018 but he left it at the earlier date he picked which is 30-04-2018. Though is appointment is on 25-04-2018.

Please is there anything he can do to this and does this affect his chance

Ur advice is urgently needed. Thank you

He can still edit it and then reprint

learner007:
I don't know where to start thanking God from. After BGSU decided to omit me from their funding list in their MA MATHEMATICS program, the school I applied to with the belief that I was being overly ambitious gave me a surprise offer this evening. Please join me and praise God. I'm pleased with this offer. God be praised!!!

Glory be to God, bro you have all reason to thank God.

pmax:




Thanks for your response.

My age: 30
University of Bridgeport
Sponsored my in-law, enough cash to sponsor 3 persons,
I have a HND graduated 2015, couldn't go for direct masters so I had to apply for transfer program.

@alayomini was your visa granted the 4th time?

As an Undergraduate students, American give high chances to ages from 18 - 22. I think this is the main reason why you are been denied. Why not go for a Masters degree since you are already a graduate already. If you cant go for Masters directly, there are college you can go for upgrade before your masters. You can make more research online or check www.collegeweek.com the website will really help you.

kidUrbane:

3. An international institute reputed for ranking universities across the globe, Webometric of Spain, has rated National Open University Of Nigeria, Top 23 University in Nigeria And 193 in Africa.
