Course: Nursing
COA: $26,411
SOA: $344k
Visa approved.

V.O: Good morning
Me: Good morning, how are you today?
V.O: I'm fine, please pass me your documents
V.O: lifts up my passport and types in her computer and then says “your parents applied with you”
Me: No, I applied alone
V.O: repeats the same thing
Me: I realized what she meant and I responded “Yes, my mum, my siblings and I applied for the B1/B2 in 2016 but we were denied except my mum”
V.O: Where is your mum?
Me: She's in Nigeria
V.O: types for a while and asks me “What's your mum's name”
Me: I told her.
V.O: Why are you going to a community college or for an associate's degree?
Me: I believe it's the degree I need now, it'll help me fulfil all prerequisite courses to be admitted into the nursing program which I intend to do a dual enrollment with University of Maryland.
V.O: What are the prerequisite courses
Me: Biology, Chemistry and Physiology
V.O: Why do you want to study Nursing
Me: Nursing is a career path that aligns with me and things that I'm passionate about and I know I'll do great.
V.O: Who'll be sponsoring you?
Me: My Uncle
V.O: Why is your Uncle sponsoring you
Me: He supports my dreams and would like to see me go out there learn and come home to make a change
V.O: That sounds rehearsal (she had me here lol)
Me: Oh no not at all.
V.O: types for the longest while and then asks how many schools did you apply to
Me: 4 and I got accepted into 3 of them
V.O: Why didn't you get accepted into the last one
Me: I didn't meet the schools requirements.
V.O: What secondary school did you finish from
Me: Called the name of my school
V.O: Oh it's a good school
Me: Yes (hoping it'll help �)
V.O: Why is the money this much? (She was wondering why the SOA had 344k when I only needed 26k)
I was thinking if I should tell her that it's his company account
Me: That's the money there is in his account.
V.O: Okay, you have family in Maryland
Me: no.
V.O: What of your brothers
Me: they are here in school
V.O : So you do not have any family members in the US
Me: Yes
V.O: Your visa has been approved and all that.

I had packed a whole file of supporting documents but I didn't have to use any one and it can only be God.
I think the V.O was majorly looking at how truthful one is because while I was on the line a few people were approved and some weren't and from listening to their conversation, you'd hear were they twisted the thing and you'd know when it became messy.

Thank you for everyone who has posted their transcripts here, I've learnt a lot here, I pray that everyone would achieve success in their pursuit.
