shakol91: @ BabyMama I was in Sacramento, CA last month for a two months intensive training with the California Highway Patrol. Interestingly, we had a course named "Accident Investigation" and I want to study it further. So, I want to know if with this,I can apply to further this course in US. Mind you it is a "certificate course"not M.sc so my fear is that,I don't know maybe embassy grant Visa for certificate courses. On the long run,I will like to have this certificate added to my B.sc and with my Nigeria working experience apply for a Job in the State. Please I need all members of this thread to contribute

Babymama1:

I doubt if you can get an F1 visa ( student visa) for a non degree program

shakol91: ok Ma'm pls any better suggestion

Babymama1:

A master's degree program with evidence of sponsorship,preferably a scholarship is looked on more favorably
Certificate courses unless being sponsored by your job in Nigeria is less likely to be approved for visa

shakol91: alright. I'm aware of this

KClight: I will be going for an interview in a week time. Got an admission in Houston College for a NURSING degree But what I don't really get is the question of what have you been doing since you left school. I am a student of imsu 200 level but my department is English and Literally studies. You see, if I say to the VO that I am studying English in imsu, Don't you think English as an academic discipline got nothing to do with Nursing? Please pals I am so confused really need your help. And besides imsu couldn't give me any transcript for now. ( really not an Organised institution)

Babymama1:

OK
How did you like Sacramento BTW
Did you travel to any other cities or states?

shakol91: @ Baby Mama,the advice i gave to him was to apply for admission (I think is working on that now) pay all the necessary fees,visit embassy with documents to confuse the VO like the certificate he was given by California Highway patrol after the training,also the photo's he took in the college during training,with officers and also on patrol,he also has some CHP officers contact card given by them to him when he was leaving. Also the photos he took at the california government house. His present job employment letter, (All this just to confuse VO why he wanted to study the course and to confirm that he has truly undergone intensive training there b4. Pls ur suggestions

babymama3:

First I thought you were asking for yourself
I don't know why you kept saying "to confuse the visa officer"
That shouldn't be anyone's intention as those people are very well trained and can tell when one is trying to pull stunts
Going for an interview ,just be yourself
People can tell when you are sincere
On my very first visit to the British embassy,I was turned down and before I left I asked the interviewer why he turned me down and he told me I didn't apply correctly and that I needed to reapply for the right visa and that was what I did and got the visa
