Your case is so simple. You didn't prepare well enough, a bit of uhm.... errrm.... brain booting makes you sound like an unprepared and an unserious student. Prepare well again and refire.

Flaame:
Hello NL family,I guess it is time to upload my transcript,my visa wasn't approved on aug 24th. It was my first trial,date was initially on aug 15,2018 but was rescheduled to aug 24th. It was a cold n rainy morning. All aug 14,15,16,17,18,20,23,and 24th applicants were scheduled together to 24th,all 7am,7:30am,and 8am applicants were joined together. Queue was like that of judgement day queue....the one we usually see on jehovah witness books of people going to hell. My time was 7am and I came before that(abuja).
Was interviewed by a nice white guy in his mid-thirties or later than that at window 10. After praying silently not to be interviewed by a mean white skinny woman at window 6. I escaped her though.
Vo smiled and gave me a thumbs up to come quickly,I smiled back and came.
Vo: good mnin,you hear english right?
Me: yes,sure(surprised)
Vo: pass me ur documents(I did)
Vo: so you are going for an F1 visa?
Me:Yes
Vo:so.....where is the sch?
Me: st. Cloud(waited for a sec wondering if he meant state or city)
Vo: No,I mean state.
Me:minnesota
Vo: what are some of the courses you would be taking?
Me:physics,gen.Engr,maths,statistics,chemistry...basic chemistry(I corrected,was doubting if chemistry was really there).
Vonot bothered)so this sch is a 2 yr sch,right?
Me:no,4yrs....(see this mumu o,u wan fall me)
Vo: He asked again
Me: i said 4 yrs
Vo: sowhat does your sponsor do?
Me: he is a professional lawyer who owns a law firm...beside that,he has acres of lands in two diff locations he leases out to commercial farmers...he gets a lot of income from these(both law firm n these)
Vo:what percentage of your tuition will he be covering approximately cos ur sch fees is 29,00usd.
Me: about 60-70%
Vo: how much does ur statement read in usd?
Me: about 55,000usd
Vo: can you approximate how much he earns...like monthly?
Me: i cant be specific but I can assure you it runs into millions
vo: so u said u would be taking statistics,physics n basic chemistry in program?
Me: Yes(guy physics n statistics d dia now na wetin be ur own,was basic chemistry really there I realized it wasnt later)
Vo: why this course?
Mewaited for like a second for my memory to download)....I have this plan of setting up an ict firm somewhere in lagos or my state after my program... So with this course.....(he cut me short)
Vo: why the sch?
Me:[still recovering from all the abrupt cut n join interview....the guy no d wait make u hit am] as an ..*ABET*( I corrected and expanded the meaning),the engineering curricula at st.Cloud is so standardized at bachelors level and it ensures students(he cut me short again saying ok)
Vo: thank you....u can have your passport,nice time(put the pink paper in my passport,kept a kind of sorry face...like u almost made it).
Me: but where did I go......
Vo: the paper will tell u....feel free to reapply anytime
Reason for denial in pink paper: said I didnt prove I would be coming back to naija after my studies...That my intention for travelling wasnt clear so I appear as an intending immigrant.
BigFrancis,lagosismyhome,naughtyvirgin,nahum,freshstarz,walspring,roenix(my dear)......where did I go wrong Could it possibly be the chemistry I mentioned? But that is not home-tie.

You can have two sponsors. You must be able to explain their relationship to you and why they choose to sponsor you.

Sophiaugo:
,a co sponsor like additional funded account statement with sufficient fund? Her aunt is willing to help can she go with her aunt statement of account also?

Yes, with a 80% chance of not getting your visa on financial ground except friend gets lucky. Why not leave luck for the birds, try to get a Co-sponsor.
#OkayBye

Sophiaugo:
House pls,asking on behalf of a friend she is due for interview on thursday,her school request for a minimum of 5million nd she has 4m in her sponsors account, can she go with it to d embassy like that? Pls your reply,thanks.

I sent you a PM. I had similar issue a month ago.

OpeTestimony:
Hello house,

I have a bit of a situation here.

Went for visa interview about two weeks ago, the interview was short with just a few questions, and the VO seemed to be interested in approving my visa, until she claimed my bank documents weren't sufficient for study, I tried to convince her, but she said I should instead get additional bank documents and submit them as soon as possible.

I submitted the documents on Monday, and I've been tracking with the CEAC tracker.

Been on "Administrative Processing" since then till yesterday when it changed to "Refused", I wasn't happy about this and couldn't understand why. Also the Embassy has not contacted me yet.

So I went online to read up about this and I got a lot of mixed messages.

Now I want to ask if anyone has had this kind of experience, and what does this mean.

Thank you.

Iffahear. If you know, you know.

MENTORCH:
It means that professor peller made a lot of money then, for his son to be this rich and open a major club in VI.

You have a good point. I am only against the statement you keep using "I denied you". You could have just waited for him to post his transcript then we can see where the flop came from.

roniex2:


You are not God you are not God. That's what they will keep saying and not take to corrections. I don't know what the boy was expecting when he came here to ask for approval or denial over his mock. At the end of every mock interview conducted, they approve you or deny you. I have done it several times and people are approved or denied then you work on your lapses.
It's not difficult to understand bah?

Oga! This your "I delayed you" statement is condescending and infuriating at the same time. You are not a V.O, you are not God. Everybody here only give advise to the best of their knowledge. There are no perfect responses when it comes to Visa interviews.

Please just let this slide.

roniex2:


I understand how you feel now but please don't transfer your aggression on me. In your words, you came here and asked anyone who had an opinion to state it. You particularly said it might be approval or denial.
I read your transcript and I 'delayed' you and also gave you my corrections. I told you not to use generic answers and sculpt out unique answers of your own.
Even if the questions you posted here weren't asked, you probably used one of those generic answers I advised you against.

Next time, if you are not ready to hear the truth, don't ask for criticisms.
I hope and sincerely pray you get it next time.
Goodluck

The funny thing is this "some" won't actually tell the complete story.

LagosismyHome:


It so so difficult....... even at working 24hours is very difficult. Some claim to have done it but it not a smooth or easy journey

Na so!

@mhizdee congrats. One of the most natural transcript I've seen here in a long while. You were able to prove beyond doubt to the V.O that you're a genuine student

You don't get the point still. Stop spamming the thread. Stop asking the same question twice within a very short time interval. Post responsibly. Have a nice day.

KAMSITO:
Some people wan kill me because am asking to know pls spare me i want to know better its the sick that needs the doctor if your ailment is not healed u keep visiting the doctor and taking drugs

Let your Samsung phone screen break. That's when you will know it cost more to repair the screen than to buy a second-hand.

BanevsJoker:

How can the screen alone cost more than the entire TV?

Applying again is a waste of time. He's banned already. He can only try to appeal The decision within the next one year (Don't know how this is done or how possible it is). The case is beyond worse.

sospunky:
This looks bad.....
But try applying again...this time if the issue comes up try to give them strong reasons to prove your case.

I want to ask if you're still in use of your Gotranscript account.

AnonyNymous:

Just saw this, what's it about?

Could not get a professional job, not side jobs.

Hanseel1:


but you realize he couldn't get a job because of the criminal records and not laziness?

Bro! Please I sent you a PM. Kindly respond.

AnonyNymous:

If you can combine it it's not a crime. But most can't. They don't show up at their place of work at all and collect salary from npower. Heck, I even know some students in my school that get free 30k from npower. What is wrong is wrong. The people abroad that someone used as an example show up to both of the jobs they're paid to do. Its easier for them because they're paid per hour. If one job has a maximum of 40 working hours a week then it makes sense for them to add another job if they've exhausted all the working hours and still need to earn more. Maybe npower should switch to hourly payment too.

But please let's learn to condemn what's wrong and stop trying to justify it.

I'm a guy inbetween. lol

BLESSMME:

Thank You so much for this comment. How I have longed to see an unbiased comment both on Facebook and failed to see for so long. You are a good person (I don't know ur gender) Lol

If you watch the movie non-judgementally with an open mind, both of them are to blame but the lady has the most blame. The man ignored little things he should have been doing while in the relationship. He was a bit selfish, he shouldn't have ignored little things he could have done to make the wife happy while broke.
There's both short term dream and long term dream. While working on his batteries, he could have support his home with some side jobs too, his own only worries was his batteries and batteries alone leaving all burden on the wife working two,three jobs.
He could have also showered more love to his wife while at it. So many things to learn from the movies.
The film also tells us that being a good man or good woman doesn't mean you'll reap the dividends of being good.

LordsApostle:
After seeing that movie acrimony, the Tough me felt like crying; Iean I could relate with everything, and it teaches a very huge lesson to the female folks..
Obviously the man has No blame at all, he did all every reasonable man in his shoes would have done... The man really has No blame, he is a very good man. My kind of man...


-The Apostle..

Good opinion. But from what I've seen here, the GRE is not that bad to get him denied a visa.
His overall package might not just seem right to the V.O.
Taking another GRE to scale through visa process is a NO, No.

fabyom:
If you would not mind. please take the GRE exam again. I think your score was what made her to denied you. For someone trying to engage in that course of yours you need a better GRE score. My opinion though.

Stop spamming! Sevis fee is valid for a year.

DanteFixo:


Please do I need to pay another sevis fee if my visa was denied and I want to reapply ?

But wait O, the ranking of CMU I just checked on Google now is a top ranked school if I'm not mistaken. Let's be careful of the advise we give out here.

shayhune:


Your inlaw got rejected because of the school he applied to. The rate at which applicants who apply to such one storey schools like CMU, VIU etc is high. Tell your inlaw to apply to a better school if his intent is to study.

We need to stop this self-pity or don't know what else to call it. It hurts when visa is refused but we should stop whinning about it and look for the best way to go moving forward. Generalizing it might only make you feel better for a few days but it won't take the pain away. Rate of denial has always been high here in Nigeria and will continue to be, yet some people still get their visas.

Ubah1:


It has always been like this. Don't use that as a excuse not to pursue your dream. Ofcourse they are making money with the refusal. If You are prepared enough and hopefully favoured to meet a V.O that's not too strict, You will scale through. So prepare well and leave the rest for God if you are not an atheist

Guy! Better no let your village people hear this one wey you talk o.

yeyerolling:
Nothing like village pple. Mk una stop this nonsense

Bro! I will like to know if you tried using the free WES evaluation online before you proceeded for to evaluate your result on WES. Was the two outcome similar?

lasthero:


Undergraduate course: chemistry education

Proposed course at masters level: MBA with concentration in general business

Scam alert. If you know, you know.

Boys don wise up.

Differentials1:
i can help

Let me help you guys finish your fight @nahum777 and @4peace4

You can say all the right things and still get refused your visa but you can't say all the wrong things and get the visa. End of discussion.

Hello bro. Have you been able to get any account either Gotranscript or crowdsurfwork. I'm also in dire need of one. Please let's relate and share ideas.

khelvinharris:
Anyone who knows how to create a gotranscript transcription account or who wants to sell one or knows someone who would like to sell should please contact me with a price.

Thanks.

Rate of refusals has always been high any day, anytime. Nobody has ever gone to the embassy here in Nigeria and say white paper was flying around.

I sent you a PM bro

Saveasoul:
i have someone who is selling drop your fb username

I saw this on quora few days ago how the V.O
Secretly admired an interviewee native attire to the interview. The thing is wear whatever makes you feel great and confident about yourself. And you should really look good while on it.

Sorelee:
There are no rules against wearing native. if native makes him comfortable he is so good to go... infact i stumbled across a former VO comment some 2-3 years ago about what to wear for your interview and if native was allowed and then she mentioned that they are all secret admires of people wearing native during their interview and and then she mentioned how she admired a lady that wore Ankara.......

It's pure sarcasm for sure. I loved how every comment flowed with the sarcasm. If you know,
You know.

Apina:
The comments sound weird coming guys becaise the world has made it look as though women alone can be in a position of vulnerability

Thanks. Working on my GRE already.

Olalekank:

Anything is possible. There are schools that accept your CGPA. You can boost your profile with other documents like the SOP (where you can explain the reason for the supposedly low CGPA), LOR, research experience, high GRE and TOEFL scores.

These would do a great job in improving your chances of getting admitted amongst other applicants.
