Gurus and experienced ppl, I'll like to ask if I should print my gre score report for my account on gre for the embassy.

Also, does it matter if it's printed in black and white or coloured?

Dont you have the ORIGINAL score report?

IF you havn't received the ORIGINAL score report sent to your home address, then you can make use of the online one printed out from your GRE account...

It doesn't matter if it is black and white or coloured.. Just print any type you want.. But if u ask me, i will choose the coloured.. It looks more presentable..

Whichever one is ok tho!

If you're going for Biology, then say Biology. Pre-med includes studying all those 5 science courses in prep for a medical school. Biology is physical science or biomedical in some schools. Pre-med isn't a major.

Thank u for ur anticipated replies

First bold, you didn't state your CGPA but still, those schools are good and competitive. Second part, you can ask the schools about if they accept scanned copy or not as no one here can answer that.

Walspring: My Family,

I need more clarification on these 2 words below ;

Tuition and Fee

Waiting for response......

Tuition is your school fees. Tuition totally depends on the number of courses you're doing and your total credit hours.

Fee refers to any other extraneous fees you're required to pay. Such as transportation fees, library fees, bus fees, etc.
Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part5 by Ashigolo(m): 11:06pm On Oct 25, 2013
thanks imperrioux, sorry I dint include the CGPA. I graduated from AOCOED with a 4.42 in computer and 4.71 in mathematics. I graduated with a first class from Lasu (4.74). Pls can I have ur mail address?...i have some ish that need clarification.

Thanks again

All 4 schools are great. As for your chances of being admitted you'll need to tell us your CGPA, UG course and prospective MS/PHD course.

Yes you can use your GTB master card to pay your application fees. That card works wonders. I used it to pay for my own application fees during my time.

A scanned transcript copy is used/required only if the prospective school wants it. Some schools ask for scanned copies while some require the hard copy mailed to them physically. Hence, your usage of a scanned copy depends on the school's transcript requirement.
Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part5 by bigfrancis21: 11:10pm On Oct 25, 2013
Oh, I just saw your GPAs. They are wonderful. You do stand a chance. You should try acing the GRE and TOEFL exams to back up your application. Also, a stellar statement of purpose is paramount.

@ the Bold. I can feel your passion for Lone star state -TEXAS grin grin Perhaps you have relations there. How come all the 4 schs are schs in Texas? This might be a Red Flag. I will advise you yank off some of the schools from the list and add some schools of equal standard from other state.
All in all, you've got a good profile and I see you making headways. Take care.

You have to send a photocopy of your certificate to them. Your transcript should be sent to them directly from your school.

The Basic course by course evaluation, which is required for graduate school application is $160. For each copy you want sent to a school its $30, then each delivery costs $7 (one copy will be sent to your home address, its standard)

The evaluation should take about 2 weeks. But your credentials will be sent back to your school for verification -this is where the problem lies. It took 2 months for my school to verify my credentials, and I heard all they have to do is send an email to WES.

I hope this helps.

UNIXLover: Hello fam,
Thanks for the helps u guys are offering here.

Quick One,I just discovered that the school i am applying to requires WES evaluation of my transcript. How long does it take WES to evaluate transcript? how much am i paying to WES? How do i get my transcript to WES?


Thanks guys
minimum of 2wks bro, I did mine in 2wks but make you go for WES ICAP (Transcripts + Evaluation + Storage)
Course-by-Course (with GPA & course-levels) $205, don't allow your school to send your transcript through regular mail, I beg of you use courier services like fedex n co and pls don't include copy of your certificate in your transcript when sending it. Make sure you send it separately. I hope this help

Well if you say the ICAP is the best option, its ok. I did the basic one because I had sent copies of my transcript to the school already. From my understanding the only difference between the ICAP and basic is that, in the ICAP your transcript will be included in package sent to the school and also stored for future use. But in the basic, just the evaluation is sent and stored for you. I might not be right, but like I said this is just my own understanding.

It depend on schools sha, But what if you need another copy of your evaluated transcript, how are you going to get it without storing you transcript with WES. It very important to store you transcript for future use.
