Also, you didn't prepare for these aspect

1. " what will this course do for you/ what will you be doing with this score?"

2. Tell me about your school?

wish you all the best, Alcorn is a great school.

Seems everyone has money to fund their education, no one talks about scholarships or grants? Especially for average students.

I have been on this platform for a while and i have learned so much from peoples experiences in their visa interviews.
I had mine today and my visa was approved.

Below is my Transcript

****

*We said good morning to each other*
VO: Pass me your passport and I20 please
Me: "OK". *I pass both to him*
VO: What course are you going to study in the US?
ME: I will be studying Information Systems and Management
VO: Why do you want to study this course?
ME: I have an avid interest in tech and a strong tech background. I also have a degree in Physics and I currently work as a telecoms Engineer. I am working on building a career as a systems analyst and this course will be relevant to my career path. ( I actually prepared something more comprehensive to say but everything was just jumbled up in my head).
VO: How long is your program?
Me: The program is for 21 months. I should graduate by May 2020
VO: Who will be sponsoring you?
ME: My Aunt. I also have some personal savings which I intend to invest in my education (my I20 shows both my aunt and myself as sponsors)
VO: What does your aunt do? (I dint hear him quite well at first so i asked him to please repeat).
ME: She is the COO of ***** and she owns a couple of Gas fill plants in Lagos
VO: *Nods head*

*I even received a housing scholarship but i forgot to mention that* What tension can cause.

VO: Are you married?
ME: No im not married
VO: Do you have any children?
Me: No I dont
VO: Types some things into his computer and says "I will be approving your visa, you will be contacted with 2 to 3 business days to pick up your passport (He circles the location on the white paper)

I came out feeling like I was walking on air.
I expected many more questions or even request for statement but he didn't ask for any thing else.
I wish everyone the best

F1 and F2 Visas approved this morning. We were the third to be interviewed by a guy with headphone; he granted the first and denied the second guy, the first was a lady and her young son for B1/B2 and the guy was for F1.
Once he was done with the guy, he signaled us and Wifee and I stepped forward.

Us: Good morning

VO: Good morning

VO: Your documents

Me: I passed both passports and I 20s

VO: Which school are you going to?

Me: I am going to the UConn School of Business in Hartford, CT

VO: So what will you be doing after the program

Me: So I presently work in the investment management industry, I will be returning to Nigeria to work briefly in the investment management industry and later set up my own investment management firm.

VO: Why did you choose this school?

Me: I just smiled, first the program fits my interest, I work in the investment management industry and I am going for an MBA with a concentration in investment management. So I applied to four schools and got admitted into two, so my other reasons will be relative. The other school I got admitted to is in Boston, so it is more expensive to live in Boston than Hartford, I got a Graduate Assistantship that comes with complete tuition waiver, monthly stipend and a subsidized health insurance which is better than the $65,000 scholarship I got for the entire duration of the program in Boston and lastly, both programs have a student management fund, the Program in Boston has an Asset under Management of about $500,000 while the program in Hartford has an AUM of about $2,000,000. The advantage of working with a larger fund is that it allows you to invest in more stocks and sectors therefore increasing your experience.

VO: He faced my wife and asked “will you be staying with your husband for the entire duration of the program or you will be travelling in between?” (This was the only question she was asked).

Wife: I will be staying with him all through sir.

VO: Now facing me, how did you know about this Program?

Me: So the schools I applied to all match my interest, I used the FT 100 MBA ranking and the US News ranking I combined them with insights I got from several orientation from the Education USA and The MBA Tour held on October 7, 2017 in Lagos.

VO: I can see that you got a loan

Me: Yes, from MPower Finance.

VO: Do you have kids?

Me: No

VO: When will you be travelling?

Me: I will be travelling by the end of this month, so the orientation is scheduled for August 13, 2018. (Wifee told me on our way home that it is next month and not this month, so it was a mistake on my part)

VO: I have approved your Visas

Me: Thank you sir

Thanks to everyone on this thread, what is going on here is priceless.

Congratulations. I must have sighted you in the hall but didn't take note of the person after me.

That guy does not have problem.

Our aunty, the black lady, on window 2 was doing what she knows how to do best. She was the first that came and rejected the first lady, the second lady told her she has interviewed her before and requested to be interviewed by another officer, the VO took her passport to confirm what the lady said and asked the security guy to direct her to another window after the confirmation.

Azzin the guy no get wahala at all. I noticed the black lady too. She asked them so many questions. I salute the bravery of the second girl that asked to be interviewed by another person.
I noticed the security guy wasn't sending so many people to her either. Maybe its cos she was taking so much time.

Even the second white lady also rejected 2 people that I saw

We thank God for everything. See you in America!

VO: Types some things into his computer and says "I will be approving your visa, you will be contacted with 2 to 3 business days to pick up your passport (He circles the location on the white paper)

Azzin the guy no get wahala at all. I noticed the black lady too. She asked them so many questions. I salute the bravery of the second girl that asked to be interviewed by another person.
I noticed the security guy wasn't sending so many people to her either. Maybe its cos she was taking so much time.

Even the second white lady also rejected 2 people that I saw

We thank God for everything. See you in America!

Congratulations bro. God bless your new journey.

That second lady was our choice if we had our way because we met her during the VO session at the Education US orientation last Wednesday, but when I saw that her questions were much, I just thank God that I wasn't directed to her.

The second guy she was interviewing was mixing things up, like he didn't take any test and was not straight forward with his responses.

The guy I feel for most is the guy that was interviewed and rejected before me, his responses (the ones I had) were on point, maybe there is a lacuna in his profile.

God bless your trip.
