You can use any account provided it has a good cash flow and the balance is equivalent to or greater than the stipulated annual fee.
For your vaccination, a friend at Texas A&M-Kingsville did his own at the airport for 1k while leaving for spring 2013 (trust naija with sharp business as you have qualified doctors in search of daily needs). You can arrange 2k maximum while leaving but, don't wait till you get to college station unless you are a rich kid. My little contribution @my oga's at the top, you can add more pls

I am also in the same shoe... I have not seen hard copy of both my toefl and gre scores and I have gone to the post office more than 5 times , they said it has not been mailed... although school has seen it and i have got my admission but I am still looking at what to present at the embassy. please what can i do?

U can use the online print-offs. I've not seen my GRE's hard copy (I did on Oct 29,2013) but I'm using the print-off.I'm heading to Down Under though.

so got there around 6am, we filled in as usual...i got into the hall and had to submit my I-20 nd passport to the Nigerian support staffs in the hall..the woman was so rude nd sounded like some bitch from the pit of hell..well i am not some1 to be intimidated...i replied her sharply and told her not to shout at me (tho i was wrong by not signing my I-20)..so i took my seat and waited for my number to appear on d display screen...meanwhile today was a good day..many visiting visa's wia issued and a few denied (those denied where deservedly denied.) Nigerians who go to deliver in the US, una better pay una bills complete, else na for consular dem go enter you.so my number appeared and i stepped forward, omo meeen...make una guess who i see inside cubicle...it was d dreaded chinko woman..i was like my own don pee today...

ME-Goodmorning
V.O-so what are you going to do in the united states
ME-well i am going for a masters in safety management, at West Virginia University, Morgan Town.
V.O- SO when last did you visit the US
ME-last year May
V.O-what did u go do there
ME- I went for my cousins wedding in illinois and also visited West Virginia Uni( the second part na lie o)
V.O-(putting that green card inside my passport) so what did u do in ur first degree
ME-Computer Engineering (i don dey dance azonto inside me)
V.O- did u apply to any other school
ME- NO
V.O- did u bother checkup some other schools
ME- yes but WVU was d only one that offered Safety Management with research interest in OIL and GAS safety which is my area of interest
V.O-(handing me the pick up card) Ok, come back for your visa ........................( i swear uptill now cant remember what she said)

NB: well it looks so simple ryt, my analyses is that the fact dat i av bn to d united states nd came back in due time stood me a good chance...my tourist visa expires nxt yr may. but dis analysis is just human...above all it was Gods favour. i ddnt do GRE but i did IELTS but she ddnt ask for any, obviously my travel history was enuff for her.
meanwhile i will advise you write standard test like GRE,IELTs and TOEFL cos she denied virtually all the guys that went before me for student visa...they ddnt write any test plus dey applied to community colleges..even other V.Os denied all d community college applicants...i know dis cos i sat in d front row and i was eavesdropping all d cubicle. lol
imperiouxx, bigfrancis and co always say the truth by warning on some random schools and not taking test...it may count against you... going back to bed, c u in a jiffy lol

mr swagger:




@technolee, which of the airport did ur friend do the vaccination, is it the international airport or local airport.

And also, do they do this particular immunization at the airport; ( Measles, Mumps, rubella) and Hepatitis B.

My school require this before you can enroll. But I intend doing the immunization before I leave for fall 2013 session. Please shed more light on this bro. Thanks. One luv

@Oga Bigfrancis and evryone in da house I greet u all.

FIZIK: @winbyforce.
I am currently in Anambra.
Went yo the Anambra state university teaching hospital(ANSUTH) a few days ago. They admitted to not having the vaccine. Where did u get yours exactly?

Does anybody have an idea if my Statement of Account must be Current instead of Savings?

Have you tried University of Nigeria Teaching Hospital (UNTH) Enugu? They'll more than likely have the vaccine.

I don't really know much about undergraduate credits buh you could quickly check that by visiting the school's website and looking at the degree structure/plan etc. You'll definitely see what you're looking for there.

pawn89:

fall semester 2013, no funding or am not sure about how to go about the funding. if theres anything you could say on that i'll appreciate. That is if its not already too late, however i think its a yearly thing so if i miss out on this year funding i should be prepared for the next.
thanks

Yea, by getting on campus this semester, you can then hunt for a position for spring semester.

@Ferdimako thanks for ur response. Actually, it is nt necessary for it to be Business Admin. I just want to have an idea of the total credit hours for undergraduate studies in US.

I will go on their website and check it out.

And also @Bigfrancis I want to say a Big thank you to you for the help you rendered me regarding the payment of my application fee with a GTBank mastercard.

You were so sure that the GTBank mastercard would work and it worked perfectly.

I used my little brother's friend GTBank mastercard to pay for the application fee for my school in US and it worked perfectly.

Thnx bro.. One luv!!!

Don't mind me my brother. I actually replied and I don't know what ensued. Anyway, he did the vaccination at MMA (meningitis and yellow fever). He had the mind of doing it at Texas as a rich kid but, he saw doctors at the airport administering the test (man pikin must fetch for daily needs you know!) and he paid 1k. In your own case, you can arrange for like 3k,try it out and get back to the house for us to have a sure place of getting the vaccines when required. I am on standby for any other clarification. One love

Hi T-Leo, don't get confused pls, SAT last for 5years before expiration while TOEFL last 2years, so u can still use 2011 SAT for whatever.

@T-leo001 and @Find out, I'm sorry for the wrong info I initially stated above. SAT scores are valid for 5 years and NOT 2 years..

But you can still mail your chosen university to confirm and to make sure you are on the right path.. One luv bro!!!!!!!
