Yes the guy is a scam o, they are plenty doing this, they run it as a cartel I think. I lost 40k to them, I paid 20k to Solomon Oche Providus Bank Account Number 6500355907. Below is the screenshot of our conversations. There is another one of them I paid 20k to who is Adai Samuel Okojokwu using Providus Bank too with the account number 6500355835.

Mbok, at that age, it's not advisable to apply for undergraduate studies.

However since you've spoken with various schools who're willing to accept you for graduate studies, why not give them a shot?

I beg, don't go to embassy with the undergraduate i20. It'd only give you a denial and decrease your chances of clinching the approval of your US visa.

One quick question: are you sure you've been following this thread since Part 11?

Thanks so much for this advice, I mailed Prof Farooq Kperogi on the issue and he said the same thing you said, thank you once again bro.

Hello Gurus in the house, please I am in a state of dilemma right now and I need advises, though I have been following this thread from part 11.
Sincere appreciations to the contributors of this thread.
My story goes thus, though it's a bit long but please bear with me:

I am a HND graduate in Accounting from one of the reputable Federal Polytechnic in Nigeria, this year June I will clock 31 and recently completed NYSC.

I have been applying for an undergraduate transfer to City University of New York - College of Staten Island (Recommended by my Uncle who is working and living in US also my sponsor) since 2017 when I was still in HND 2 but one way or the other I have to defer my admissions up till this moment due to late preparations and other issues. Though I sent my ND transcript (GP 2.71/4.0) to College of Staten Island where they evaluated it with their in-house evaluators and I was given an admission after necessary requirements were fulfilled but it's late already to apply for Visa and the school advised me to defer my admission. During my NYSC in 2018, I started the admission process again and I-20 was sent to me but it got to me late that I couldn't apply for Visa at that time again. Then someone advised me that my age might affect my chances of getting a visa due to the fact that I am still pursuing undergraduate degree at that age, so he advised to go for Graduate Studies i.e Masters in Accounting but my ND GP is 2.71 and my HND GP is 2.77, and most schools in US accepts minimum of 3.0. My one problem now is that I am not a BSC graduate but a HND graduate. I heard different informations that Nigeria HND is equivalent to BSC in US if my ND+HND is evaluated by WES but confused if it's going to be up to 3.0 if evaluated finally by WES.
On hearing this information I approached College of Staten Island that during the course of my application I was also pursuing HND which I have gotten now and I want to use it to apply for graduate studies but they told me point blank they don't accept HND even if evaluated by WES. I was told to revert back to pursuing my previous Transfer application but before my application will be reviewed I need to provide my HND transcripts because they were not aware I have it before not until I told them.
After hearing the sad news so I opt to finding other schools in the US and they accept my HND but on condition that I evaluate it by WES to be equivalent to BSC in USA. Some of the schools are Purdue University, University of Utah, Georgia Southern University, University of Houston, Stratford University, Kennesaw University, Merrimack College, Virginia International University.

Please I want you to advise whether to go for the undergraduate studies in College of Staten Island with my age or should I evaluate my ND+HND with WES and apply to the aforementioned schools? And is there any chance of I getting up to 3.0 GPA after the evaluation by WES?
Please your advice and constructive criticisms will be highly needed.
Thank you.
