Amefrica: Bros I have been frequenting the post office like 2 times a day. Those guys are just lazy... if i call and request to speak with the SEVIS coordinator they will connect me to a voice mail, you can imagine. Who wants to speak to a machine when I need my I-20 |
Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part5 by conyema12(m): 9:23pm On Dec 10, 2013 |
De Tus: @Conyema12, the letter should be like this: Hi again, it is quite unfortunate and totally uncalled for that I have not received my I-20 for couple of weeks now. I am totally disenchanted simply because I do not have time anymore. And I have not scheduled for my appointment yet. The US Embassy requires time for each applicant at its Embassy. Please do not let my dreams go in tatters. I need a new I-20 as soon as possible. Hope to join you guys soon. I even have problem with them replying their mails. |

Conyema: Which of the schools are you going exactly? When I asked here, you said University of Houston. On another thread, you said University of Texas, Arlington. I think you need to be consistent with your info bro. I have friends in both schools who can work straight to that Int'l students office and make enquiries or complain on your behalf. Heaven they say helps those who help themselves. |

mos4phy: Hello house, is it all schools in Nigeria that wes needs to re verify that is send back to the school after you send your transcript to them at first?? . I am afraid this will be time consuming as the deadlines for transfer admission for the most of the schools am applying to is March to April, and transcript is the only document setting me back cos of the strike, so if they call of the strike and I send my transcript to them and they have to re verify again, I think I might not meet up with the deadline. .need answers please |

This is what the SEVIS coordinator just replied to me now after I have mailed her and I informed her of my deadline : Hello Conyema, Thank you for your email. Your I-20 has been issued and mailed out to you via USPS. According to USPS, the document will be delivered to you. Best name SEVIS Coordinator These people are so so funny. |

mos4phy: need answers please This is how wes works, u send them ur official transcript, once they receive it, they send a copy of the transcript to the issuing institution for verification,this might take a month or more since they are sending by normal post(approx. 6weeks). Once your skul verifies it (depending on the skul ,so u might have to go to your skul regularly to have it verified in time) they send it back to wes.once wes receives the verification, it take anoda 7 to 9 working days to evaluate the result. To save time, use courier service. |

Obajamie, On a lighter mood, the only probable cause of decrease in production in the Niger Delta in the next 10 years would be militancy. I don't foresee a decline in production even in the next 20 years. Though, oil and gas are non-renewable, geologists will keep studying these reservoirs, identify by-passed zones, and also make new discoveries. The engineers will use advanced techniques in bringing these hydrocarbons to the surface in an environment-friendly and cost-efficient way. In a world where a source rock can be "fracked", and turned into a reservoir rock, anything is possible. 1 Like |

domex: Thank your stars that you posted your sample answers before going for the interview. There are a lot of flaws in your responses. - Tobacco smoking is not a SIN here. Pastors here smoke because of the cold weather. - Your TOEL score is low, you can't brag about that. Just say you wrote the TOEFL and wait till he asks to see it. - I don't think the course will provide job for you in Naija when there are a lot of IT gurus with masters, PhD and bad certifications. - No company will sponsor you for a BS because they lack computer experts (an exception is if you are going for an advanced degree). There are many foreign graduates begging for jobs in Nigeria. Most companies also have capable hands they can send around the world for one or two weeks intensive training. Also,you are contradicting yourself by saying you plan on staying for your masters when you earlier said you are coming back home because your uncle's company is sponsoring you? Be consistent. - You graduated high school in 2010, and you started work as a computer operator. That doesn't sound convincing. Does this mean that your uncle denied you education for 3 years so you can serve him? You need to bridge the gap between 2010 and 2013 with a more convincing "story". I hope other members here can help with what to say you've been doing within those years. - Do you have any relatives in the US? NO You are a STEM major and I don't want you to miss your chance of studying in the US. Stay on this thread and be aggressive with your enquiries, I see a bright future. All the best. 1 Like |
