Hi
Will emergency request be approved if i fill previously denied on the DS160?

Yes. I think so

Good afternoon all. Please, I would need guidance on how to make my application fee payment for University of Maryland. The options are eCheck and credit card, which obviously are not our normal debit card here. I want to ask from those with experience if there are ways to make the payment from Nigeria.

I would appreciate your kind response.

You have to pay for you servis fee and also visa, book the nearest visa appointement you can find on the available visa date. Then on your left hand section of your page, you will find request emergency appointment, upload the required documents along with a letter explaining why you need an emergency date. Wait for response afterwards.

I want to register a lil bro.

Please respond. What's your take on this result?

1) ENGLISH LANGUAGE. C4
2) MATHEMATICS B3
3) ECOMOMICS C5
4)GEOGRAPHY B3
5) CIVIC EDUCATION B2
6) YORUBA LANGUAGE C6
7) BIOLOGY C5

9) PHYSICS D7
COURSE TO OFFER GEOGRAPHY

LANGUAGE C6

Be blessed.

This result in my opinion isn't bad, and you should try evaluating it using the WES free calculator too. All the person needs to do is to try ace the SAT to guarantee some sort of scholarship.

SAT to my understanding is registered just like TOEFL .
You should check this guy out for the registration. I have not tried him before sha ooo, he comes to me like a descent person though . Hakym8T

I got a place to park, which they collected 1k but was a bit far from the place of interview so I asked one guy is can park someone closer which I later did and pay another 1k

Omo your passport photograph should be the standard size required, your ds160 should be the confirmation page gan gan you print and not the one sent to your mail then make 2 copies of your international passport.

Make sure you note all this because if you don't you'll pay heavily for the service outside the consulate because those guys dey para well.

Make I just skip the interview

No questions relating to the school.

Hello, gurus in-house.
I would like you to help me out with this question...
I applied for Fall 2021 but I couldn't travel because my emergency date was denied and I was asked to stick to the regular date given to me by the Us embassy in Lagos which is dated Jan 20th, 2022, I never went for the interview at all...so I immediately emailed my school to tell them my situation and they told me to defer my admission to spring 2022, which have done that and a new I-20 has been created for me, and Spring classes start on Jan 18th, 2022.
So I decided to change my location from Lagos to Abuja and the date I was able to get now is June 28th, 2022 which is far from my resumption date...presently, the emergency request tab is not showing on my CGI page... So I want to ask/know whether I can still get an emergence date or not? if yes, what are the steps am going to take? Thanks...

Joeonel:
Pls I need your help. Am trying to book a visa interview appointment date. I keep getting from August 2022. My resumption is 10 January 2022. Pls how can I get an earlier date like November or December 2021 interview date

You've not been reading posts here, if you have, you won't be repeating this same question.
You have two options...
1. Accept the August 2022 date and apply for emergency interview 2 months before your resumption or
2. Check at nights (12am-3am) for earlier dates.

Try to be reading page by page or ask your questions on google then tag 'nairaland general USA visa enquiry'

Good morning guys, abeg what are the next steps for applying for another appoinment date after visa fee?

Be like they are just keen to collect visa fee twice this time around. Why are all the denial transcript same questions format?

I think the decision was made immediately you said you have not travelled out of Nigeria before, the rest of the questions na wash.

Try to reapply and hopefully you’ll get it this time.

No questions relating to the school.

Yes,
You have to send your transcript to the body that will reevaluate it after which the body sends it to the school. If your grades after reevaluation meets up with the school's cut off standard, then you will be considered.

Qpearl:
Hi folks, I've applied to Bowie state University. But I'm yet to pay, part of the requirement is that I send in my official transcript. My question now is: will my transcript has to be delivered before my admission status is being decided upon?

Sorry you were not able to convince the V.O that you were a Credible student. Your Answers were not convincing enough.

domex007:
Hey guys!!!
Happy to see that this waxing strong ��
Shoutout to y’all for helping and learning from each other.
I want to use this opportunity to encourage my fellow youths.
A quick reminder of my visa struggle;
Got denied student visa in 2013, 2014, 2015 denied Canadian visa in 2016 and German visa 2016. I got admission to yaba tech and started my business on the side. Against all odds, I applied for US visa in 2018 and was approved after answering a zillion questions with a very calm face and a face that hoped for the worse.

I’m in New Jersey and will be graduating in December.

God has been with me through all my struggles in America.

It can only be God guys. I hope this helps someone on here.
Keep the faith and keep grinding.
God bless America

Which school?

Owenuneed:
Sorry you were not able to convince the V.O that you were a Credible student. Your Answers were not convincing enough.

He was asked basic questions not even related to the course he intends going for or even the school and he gave answers. You're here saying he wasn’t convincing enough

No! It's neither about convincing the VO or not. I think the VO denied him/her visa based on profiling. The questions were just mere formalities.

What else do you want him to say bro?? Those are basic questions, do you want him to answer what he was not asked? From your profile you're still looking for visa so I'm wondering how you now became an authority on the best answers to give a VO as a credible student, Abeg leave this matter, accept that non of us knows why.

This is sad the rate of Japa is becoming alarming and they are aware. This country is messed up.

They keep saying one should reply like it's free. Lmaaaaooo

And they won't state the particular reason for refusal so one could work on next time.

you pissed the vo off with ur shallow answers. You want the vo to be reading ur minds for answers. I work for Lagos state government is not specific. My uncle has chain of store is neither helpful. What does he sells? What he deals with determines whether he can sponsor u. Next time avoid ambiguous statements.

Thank you, my dear friend!

Our people have been ignoring the post. I'm most grateful.

Is it compulsory he sits for the SAT?

Any chance of getting admission with the results without SAT?

I don't think he's very interested in scholarships; admission first.

I look forward to getting a reply, dear brother.

Thank you.

hello my people please is there anyone here that can put me through on mock interviews?
