I made a mistake in my ds160. In the question, "WHO IS PAYING FOR YOUR TRIP?", I put in self, misinterpreting the word, "trip" to mean flight expenses, however, I just realized that trip actually means tuition and fees and everything. My uncle will be my sponsor. What do I do now, I already submitted my ds-160.

Approvalll:
Please guys I just applied for emergency date but I only submitted my I-20 and no other documents will I get approved for the emergency appointment?

Themaths:


If you would want to continue with the Actuarial science/Mathematics line, you need to take some professional exams, at least, Exam P.

The Actuarial science program is highly coveted in the US, not more than 25 schools offer it at the master's level, believe me, I searched and surveyed all of them. I applied to about 2, Middle Tennessee State University and Illinois State University, but because I was coming with an engineering undergrad, no professional exam, and even with my GRE I didn't get any admission. So, be ready if you want to continue with it.

And of course, yes, you can always get funding, but it depends on the strength of your application; work experience in the field, GPA, GRE, professional exams if applicable and research interests and God's favour too.

Lastly, for the English requirement, I applied to at least 14 schools, all waived the TOEFL/IELTS for me. Sometimes it will be stated in their website that you need it, but a simple email to the grad coordinator can get this waived for you, while others state it categorically that if you are from Nigeria that you don't need it.

If you need any further information, just holla. Goodluck.

Hello,

He was denied USA visa F1 and F2 , and he wants to reapply, he has paid for the MRV fees and started application, but he can't Edit the F2 Ds 160 number on the cgif portal.

Please has anyone experienced this issue before?

Themaths:

1 Full funding and a number of tuition waivers. My mistake was, I applied mostly to PhD programs when I should have faced master's first. That was a bummer.

Tyleet:


Thanks so much. Will I have to pay a new visa fee and will they see that I changed something in my ds-160 form?

OlAfredd:
Good morning,

Please how do I confirm approval of my emergency application? And should I have gotten an email when I submitted my application? I didn't get any email and I can't see the emergency tab again on my home page.

shams040:


What did you get funding for Msc oPhD?

I feel it would help the guy. But I would advise that the guy asking question should take IELTS or anyone plus GRE considering his grade to boost his funding chance.

OlAfredd:
Abeg oo, I need response, so I can take next appropriate action!

Hello! There is no Hope in Lagos, I applied for emergency since last month approximately 4 weeks now. They have not replied. Lagos is ghosting everybody, do not waste your time.

This particular question has been causing lots of confusion to many of us, especially if you have funding, i checked online for the definition of trip, it means accommodation, flights and feeding. I am surprised that people are including tuition and fees as part of trip.

Please i want more explanation on this

@justwise, is there a way I can ask this question directly to the VOs. I saw there are past VO threads, but the VOs are no longer active on those threads. Is there a currently active thread to ask a VO a question?

Themaths:


Lagos or Abuja? When it your emergency request is approved, you will receive an email stating so.

OlAfredd:
Abuja.

Oh okay, just so I'm clear:

I don't get confirmation email for completed emergency application.

And there is no way for me track its approval or denial, till they send me a decision via email.

Exactly, you just have to wait for their decision.

pebes:
Did you break your flight yourself or it is a single flight to Dallas with a layover of 3hrs 25mins?

kastgeraldino:
Some of us have 1.5 hrs to catch a connecting flight. So thank your stars

So when going to the embassy, do I have to take ONLY the confirmation slip of the new one or I need to take both the old and new confirmation slips? I see you mentioned it will it give me a new confirmation number, meaning I now have two slips with two different confirmation numbers. I looked online and people are saying if you make a change to the ds-160 after submitting, when going to the embassy, you must take both the old and new confirmation slips. I'm wondering why take the old one, isn't this going to show them you made a change to the ds-160?
