Since the VO specifically requested that i get an updated i20 that shows the TA, and she also saw my bank statement that day, do you think it will make any difference getting bank statements
that covers my tuition without the updated i-20 they requested.

AydotNX:

You simply need to get an updated I-20 FOR the new session (maybe Spring 2022) with same T.A you got for FALL. Just contact your sch for that. And I hope that your sch will still offer you the same T.A they gave you for FALL. If not, you will need to present money that will cover your program for one year to get your VISA.

The TA was course based and I let her know that my mum is my sponsor for the program she even asked for statement of account which I gave then boom, "i am placing you on administrative Processing, you need to go back to the school and let them indicate how much funding they have for you as per this TA".

Meanwhile, I told her already that in the TA they didn't mention full tuition waiver I was only informed about stipend of 4899$ for the duration of the course (3 months).

I wonder why she is still insisting to have it on my i-20 when I had already told her that I deferred my admission and couldn't take up the TA since I couldn't find a date in Fall 2021.

There was no mention of the TA on the i20. I have contacted the school but there hasn't been any response for now. Let me still hope that something nice comes up.

mojolajesu:
does the school input in the i20 that you have TA?

I think that has to be through the admission letter huh?

So I went for my F1 visa interview today. I got the white paper but the VO told me she will be placing me on administrative processing until am able to ask my school to give me a new i20 with the TA I said they gave me in fall 2021.

But i think she didn't really hear me well. I told her i had a TA but couldn't continue due to the fact that I didn't get an early date.

Please what could this mean gurus?

No, not at all. Just don't mention it anywhere in your application. Nothing links the two!

Oh, OK bro. But is there any disadvantage using father in-law?

Good evening guys...

Please who is better to be used as a sponsor, my mother who is an administrator at a university here or my father in-law who owns a big construction company with track record. Is there any disadvantage for using my father in-law. Both of them have the requisite amount to cover my COA. I am asking because am about sending my SOA for my I-20 for Spring. Thanks guys.

I was about to write this same thing before I saw your comment. It's a pity seriously....

Illumined9933:
If others had provided you with this sort of non-detailed transcript, would you have been able to understand the dynamics of getting a visa approved?

Just a honest question I'd like you answer.

You may not get answers to that here bro. You need to learn how to use Google. If you ever dream of full funding pls take your time and study for GRE except you have an exceptional CGPA. There is no magic in these things... Good luck.

Bellings:
Good Afternoon everyone please I need a link where I can check out all approved American schools online to be able to narrow down my search especially those schools that wave GRE, SAT ETc please I will appreciate your effort thank you

Please I just received my offer of Admission for Fall. Do you think it's worth continuing or I should just defer to Spring next year?

Your Atm card - Debit Card (master card or Visa) would do the jobs.

Favour1998:

Please I need to submit a school application and i dont have a credit card also I dont know anyone in the US that can help me.
Which other way can I pay with a credit card??

Would appreciate your response guys

Tough nuts to crack bro lol. I hope the person applying to these made first class hahaha

walepepe21:


Good! Kindly apply to this schools ;

Harvard University
Cornell University
UPenn University
Stanford University
Dartmouth College
GaTech
Duke University
Yale University

Thank me later.

Which department did you apply to and what degree? Morgan is not that generous with funding. Perhaps they are looking into your funding request that's why you haven't gotten the admission letter yet. This would be a huge commitment to the school hence they want to take their time.

I applied to Morgan too but had terrible experience with WES and my stupid school here in Nigeria. Their lousiness made my WES evaluation to linger from Nov. 2020 to June 14th 2021. Though, the department keeps reminding me that they are still waiting for my credential to make a decision.

I hope it comes with funding too no matter how little and I doubt if I can still meet up with visa processing and all this year.

kenwizy:
Hello house,
Please is there anyone here who is currently studying or just got admitted into MORGAN STATE UNIVERSITY, should kindly DM.

I aplied for a scholarship in MSU and Was given an admission and since I have accepted my offer letter, I haven't gotten an official admission letter. I've sent severals of mails to the school but they kept telling me to exercise patient as they are working hard to my decision out. We are starting admission process and orientation soon while I haven't gotten an official letter..

Please can someone advise me or dm if you currently in MSU.

Thank you.

Yes, I do bro. Thanks a lot man.

ObodoNaija:


Nawaoooo! I pray it favours you. Hope you have other options?

Hear Fire! She kept doing MIA until the admission passed. But we are still in talk. Having an interview with her soon. Though my interest is off due to her antics.

ObodoNaija:


How far? Hope you have finally heard from her?

Thanks a lot, that's why I have strong confidence is this thread.

Ifedolarpo:
No, you can use your cousin no problem about it as long as he has the money. They really don’t have to know that he’s not really your cousin as long as the money is genuine.

Yes you can still apply for the visa if it comes out this month.

Thanks for the response bro.
I was just asking if I could use my cousin - the guy owns a bank or my father in-law whose account has been updated (but currently less than the COA - although this can be updated with time. But am scared of sudden lump sum to the acc).

My qs is this, my mum hasn't really travelled before, so I plan to claim that this cousin of mine is my Uncle to make the blood relationship firmer. Wil this hurt me? Or should I just use him as my cousin.

His truly my cousin and my mum helped raise him. But I don't know if the embassy would believe this cos we bear different surnames.

I already applied for fall 2021 but yet to receive admission decision cos of WES delay. Though the school is still waiting for my WES report to make a decision and I have identified and done a successful interview with a Professor.

Do you think if my admission decision comes out positive this month that there is still time to apply for VIsa?

...And would using my cousin as an uncle help matters or worsen it?

Thanks a lot bro for you time.

Ifedolarpo:
Your father in law as long as he has the money to show for proof of funds or your cousin. It doesn’t matter but for me go for your father in law. The embassy won’t know they financed your brother in law before.
You have to confirm from your course how much is the school fees, that means your proof of funds should be more than the school fee and for phd most times people get full/ half funding for it. Inquiry from your school sha
I think it might be late to apply for fall but you can try.
Your I-20 will include the sponsor

Hello guys please who would make a better sponsor;

A cousin of mine that bears a different surname from mine (but I plan on claiming his my uncle - mum's brother) or should I rather just state that his my cousin.

Or my father in-law whose account has been recently updated for my brother inlaws visa attempt in August.

How much should the sponsors account hold normally. The program is a PhD.

I am looking towards fall entry but have not applied yet.

Also, when the school sends I-20, would they include the sponsor I indicated during my application or would I be asked to fill that out as I would want to change it since I didn't get the scholarship I filled there again.

The school sent their denial finally on the 13th if may. But surprisingly, this Prof. Is still in communication with me. Infact, this is the message I got from her yesterday:

Are you available for a zoom call next week? If so, please let me know what time zone you are in and if you have any time constraints (e.g., summer internship hours, etc.)


Do you think anything tangible would come out of this?

cliffton:
Thank you so much brother... I would keep reading her research and let you guys know if anything changes.

So, be aware that full funding with stipends is highly competitive and it takes time to make those decisions most times. Although, this is relative with respect to your degree or program of study. Between my GRA interview and funding was exactly 11weeks. And I still did a review of one of his 1999 paper that he didn't send me.

Bear in mind that those professors are mostly busy but next time, your very first mail with your POI should have your CV attached. They love it that way.

I would advise you to go and download more of her papers, do as much reviews as you can, attach and send them to her. Let her know of your research interest and prowess. Then tell her how you aim at contributing to her current work. I feel you'd still get the offer. Offers could come up till the 2nd week of June. Start mailing her twice a week as a means of reminder. Monday's & Thursday's. Do not worry about admission deadline. You've already applied.

Okay thanks. Am only worried that the admission deadline is 15th of may and also she too dey do MIA. But I will just keep my fingers crossed. Thanks mate, I really appreciate.

ObodoNaija:


I wonder too, and it can be very frustrating.

I think since she asked for your CV and has given you survey of the research, it simply means it is positive. I guess she likes your profile and would want you to work with her. Just give her some time, dont bombard her with emails. Your admission might come with funding since it is under review and you are already in contact with a Prof. I will advice you to wait till month end before you send her another email.

I just wonder why they are taking so much time. I applied to Iowa State University been contacted by a Prof for a possible research area. I replied and she asked for my CV which I have given her over a month now. I had to keep sending series of emails to her to know if she got my CV with no luck. Only for her to come back this Monday, gave me a survey she did on that research area for my further reading. I read the paper sharperly and responded Wednesday, as usual, she has gone silent again. T
The admission deadline is next week Friday and my application is still showing under review by graduate department.

Is this a positive or negative sign as am really worried. That school is the only school I applied to.

ObodoNaija:


Oh! Nawaoooo. Thank God you have plan B. I am yet to hear from my dept. I pray it should to be positive.

Please is there anyone that has recently gotten admission to this school... Please I need answer to this, thanks.
