That isn't true at all. There is a reason everyone wants to do an MBA at Kellogs or UPenn rather than Idaho State. MBA in those schools is mainly for networking. All organizations can't pay the salary of a Kellogg MBA graduate. If you finish from Idaho your own job will also be waiting for you. The current Indian global CEO of Deloitte Punit Renjen is an example! |

Please I need an answer. Istanbul8819: Please I am using my elder sister as my sponsor. He surname is now different from my own because she's married since 2002. So her statement of account won't have any name matching with mine even though she's my blood sister. Do I need any supporting documents while going to the embassy with her statement of account?
Please help me on this. |

Nicerazor: I have been seeing funding everywhere lol does that mean those without funding will have difficulty getting visa? And does it means once you have funding either full or partial it’s automatic ticket to get visa? Just curious! Please someone should answer this question. Thanks |

obajoey: I saw an opened graduate assistantship position, so I sent in my application (resume and just few lines of text in the body of the mail). Then I got a response from the director of the unit where the position is opened asking for my intended course of study. My intended course of study is among the eligible programs list. Sharparly I sent it to her and she responded by acknowledging the receipt of the update.

callthefred: It's easy. Arrange for some soldiers, 50k will do. Go and pay the family a visit and let the soldiers warn them...otherwise trouble will happen. The man who wants to build a structure won't return to that community ever again. It works! Spider112 follow this advice. Involve military men in Ogun State. Please follow this advice. It is the best thing you can do. Lawyers are businessmen. The amount you will spend getting a lawyer and numerous appearances in the court, you can channel half of that money and give the military men. You should not be cheated. Military men works! |

It is 5,000 dollars per year for a graduate lab assistant. Some American schools pay more than that. That is quite small. Hold on to it while you wait for others. But the school GSU is rated. Schooling there is very good. I wish you the very best. 3 Likes |

tonero4urch: Hello people,
I finished my master program on scholarship here in Turkey and i have just been accepted into the master program at Georgia State University for Fall 2021 with tuition waiver and graduate lab assistantship position but with a meagre stipend (not upto my expectation).
I have upto 1 month to decide to accept or not because I still have about 8 other pending decisions from other schools that I am waiting for.
I guess I should wait for a school with better offer. What do you guys think? Anybody with any idea about this school? Is it a school with good reputation? How much is the meagre stipend? And have you checked the average stipend paid to graduate assistants in the USA to compare yours? |

More dates in Lagos will definitely be opened for fall from April, since your I-20 will be ready next month, there is no need to fret. By then more dates should have popped up. If it doesn’t, you will have to request for an expedited appointment. Okay thanks a bunch |

If you want to know the old email address you used before (in 2018), create a new cgi profile with a different email and use the exact same details as what you must have used during your application in 2018 like your name and most importantly your passport number. When you try to save those information, a message will pop up showing that another profile with so so and so email address has used those exact details. You will get the old email address from that pop up message. If you still have access to the old email, you can use the forgot password button to reset your password. But if you don’t have access to it any longer, you can call the embassy’s customer care for help.
I hope I was able to help. Also, is there any part of the visa appointment I can start while I am still waiting to get my I-20? I just want to be proactive. Thanks |

easycare77: I think if they asked you to send a hard copy of the signed offer, you should. You may not get i20 until the form is probably received by them.
Some schools don't mail i20 and if they are one of them, they would send it to you using courier which you should get in days.
Sevis is $350. Visa fee as at last week was #67200.
Appointment date starts from 2022 January and starts coming down as days of your resumption draws near or as the embassy opens dates.
You should be Interviewed before your resumption date though. The emergency route too is available.
If you ask me, get your i20 first as you can't do Visa registration without it. Thanks a lot. I appreciate your input! |

Istanbul8819: I was offered full funding for a master's degree program in the USA, Illinois to be precise. The graduate school sent the contract, it has $1000 monthly stipend and all tuition waived, and I was asked to sign it and send the hard copy back to them. I am not to scan it or send it via a email. I am intending to send it to them via FedEx. I am asking if that is the way it is done, because I was wondering why I couldn't sign it and just scan it back.
I will be requesting my I-20, can I ask them to send it via email or I need to receive it via courier? I don't want any stories when I go for my interview with the VO if I present a printed on sent by email. Kindly advise me on that.
Also, what is the current price for SEVIS fees and Visa fees so I can prepare to be at the embassy. And if I start the processing what is the appointment timeline, hope I can get an appointment soon a I will be resuming in Fall.
And I don't mind connecting with would be students of the same institution going there this Fall 2021 who are Nigerians. The school is Eastern Illinois University. Thanks Someone should kindly reply me. Thanks |

samabos: Started 2slot ugwu crop circle back in 2018 december up till now I have not recieved any kobo from growcroponline. They have used the covid 19 pandemic as a cover thereby declared force majeure on the investment. The reality is that I might never recover my investment capital not to talk of profit. Just my personal experience. Trust is the most important thing in business. How can you expect Nigeria to grow if we cant even trust nigerians with investment such as this. My experience with growcroponline will rub on other genuine farm investment startup. I did four hectares in that same December 2018. They do send mails and newsletter. But I have not gotten that for about few months now. Is there a way forward. Can we form a WhatsApp group to discuss and try to take them on it. I know 5 friends who did the same cycle as I and have not been paid too. Thanks |

I drove down on full AC and no issues, except that the air vent brought out water vapor when it was very cold from the air vent. On getting home, I wanted to get somewhere after an hour. Immediately I switched on the AC, it was working perfectly but giving me this whistling/hissing/shhhh sound from the air vent. Kindly advise on what could be wrong. |
