3 offers of admission, no funding (I have written to all professors possible). My sponsor can afford Missouri State, not others. I heard it's not good to choose school based on only affordability that once you can pay the first semester, you'll find you way around. So now I'm thinking which to pick. Please I need advise Thank you Cost of attendance Missouri State - 25k UNCCharlotte - 40k UMassDartmouth - 40k 1 Like 1 Share |

Hello everyone, First time here and I'm having a bit of an issue with my visa appointment date. I have all the required documents, the start date on my I20 is for August ending (this year) and I picked the closest available date which was for January 2022.... Ha! I went through their website and the only solution is to book an emergency appointment (which I do not qualify for because it is not within 60 days of my program start date), and I do not want to wait until June ending to book emergency appointment, because it might be harder to get it then and I also want to start making travel arrangements now, because if I wait, my accommodation and flight ticket would be more expensive. Any advice ![]() 1 Like |

Malone122: Do you have a source for this? maybe on their website or something, because I called their help desk yesterday and what they told me is that everyone gets only 1 emergency appointment request. |

Drhay: I'm not 'sir' abeg. You can look at the EducationUSA website to get an idea https://educationusa.state.gov/your-5-steps-us-study but the ideal step is to evaluate your high school transcript or WAEC, register and write the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) and create a CommonApp profile through which you'll apply to schools or you can choose to apply through each school's portal. Each school has their own unique application process and requirements so you have a lot of research to do. How do you find scholarships? Well, Google is your friend. You're an international student so you should know the keywords to input while doing your research. A lot of factors come into play when you're seeking a scholarship- your age, your leadership experience, involvement in community services, background and so on. Just start from somewhere. You can also ask yourself some sincere questions to avoid wasting your own time. How old are you? How long have you been out of high school? Do you have the money to process this? (Even if you get a full ride, you still have to pay for a lot of things out of pocket) Do you have alternatives in case this fails? Are you motivated enough to score high on the SAT? Do you have a support system to aid you? Be very realistic. Good luck! |

Hello NL. Gurus in the houses, please help me review this transcript and give your honest assessments. What has changed since your last visit? I believe I wasn’t able to properly articulate what the course would do for me and what I intend to do when I return to Nigeria. I have a better grasp of what the course would do for me now especially in terms of my career progression and what I intend to do when I return to Nigeria. So what would this course do for you? A masters in Management Information Systems will equip me with knowledge to ensure data quality, transmission, processing, and storage that would facilitate good decision-making and general operations for companies in Nigeria. In working across banking, energy, not- for-profit and health organizations, I realized a common problem - the lack of strong data management and Research has shown that Countries that invest in and successfully derive value from their data will have a distinct advantage over countries that do not. To accelerate development and make good progress economically as a Nation, we need to develop technologies for capturing and storing data. With a master’s degree in MIS I will be empowered with high-level analytical skills necessary to manage complex computer and telecommunication based information systems for government and organizations. Why Abuja? There were available dates in Abuja for this period and fortunately for me my friend is getting married in Jos. So I figured that since I will be on vacation and in this axis around this period, I would just schedule my appointment. Why UIS? I chose UIS because they offer the best fit for my career growth in terms of curricula content which include courses like Fundamentals of Business Analytics, Project and Change Management and Business Process Management and Process Mining. Another important factor that attracted me is the fact that most of my professors have a lot of industry experience and teaching experience what that means is they would be teaching practical insights that can immediately be applied at work. Tell me about your course? Management Information Systems (MIS) is the study of people, technology, organizations, and the relationships among them. Businesses use information systems at all levels of operation to collect, process, and store data. As an MIS major, I will learn how to design, implement, and use business information systems in innovative ways to increase the effectiveness and efficiency of organizations. Also, As an MIS professional I will be responsible for creating information systems for data management (i.e., storing, searching, and analyzing data). In addition, I will manage various information systems to meet the needs of various internal and external clients in companies including managers, customers and staff. What is Management Information Systems? Management Information Systems (MIS) is the study of people, technology, organizations, and the relationships among them. For Instance, I had to fill out data on a system for this interview which you have access to and are able to make informed decisions from, that’s using information systems. Virtually every business using some form of information systems or other. What is Economics? Economics is the study of the use of scarce resources to satisfy unlimited human wants. Economics is the study of given ends and scarce means. It’s the study of how best to allocate scarce resources amidst several choice and alternatives. When did you finish high school? 2009 What have you been doing since then? I got admitted to University for a Bachelors in Economics, graduated in 2015, Did an internship with the Electronic Payment team at Guaranty Trust Banks and then another internship at an architectural company and then I came for the compulsory 1 year National Youth service here in Abuja. After my NYSC, I went back to Lagos and resumed at an Oil and Gas company as the Personal Assistant to the Managing Director where I was responsible for tasks such as providing administrative support to the managing director and expat senior managers, hotel and travel logistics and procurement of office supplies and then I moved on to my current organization as the customer service officer responsible for Communicating directly with all customers and ensuring their experience in the hospital is pleasant, valuable, and memorable and managing billing and invoices using the company’s computer-based information systems. What is Information Systems? Information Systems is an academic study of systems with a specific reference to information and the complementary networks of hardware. Information systems are also networks of computers integrated to work together to achieve specific objectives. There are different objectives - such as decision-making, storing & archiving, organizing office tools. The aim of information system is to support business operations, management and decision-making. Some components of Information system include Hardware, Software, Data, Procedures, People, Feedback. Some examples of Information system are management information system, intelligent system, enterprise systems, enterprise resource planning, geographic information system. How is Information Systems related to Management Information Systems? information systems is simply the physical hardware, data and software that functions while management information system which is a component of Information Systems is one of any type of computerized information systems used in business organizations. The diverse services of an MIS address the specific information needs of the departments, or functional areas, found in most business organizations: Sales, Marketing, Finance, Accounting, Operations, Human resources, Information technology services. Each department has distinctive information needs. For example, the sales department needs sales reports; the accounting department needs updated financial statements; the marketing department needs a customer relations management system, or CRM, to manage all touchpoints where prospects and customers interact with the business. What courses would you be doing? Fundamentals of Business Analytics, Management of Database Systems, Systems Analysis and Design, Data Communications and Networking, Business Process Modeling and IT Governance, Business Process Management and Process Mining and Project and Change Management. Tell me about the program at UIS: I will be studying for a Master Degree in Management Information Systems and gain understanding of computer hardware and software systems to ensure the data quality, transmission, processing, and storage necessary to facilitate organizational decision-making and general operations. How did you know about the School? My Brother informed me about Education USA’s fair in September 2019 in Nigeria. UIS was one of the schools that attended the fair and I got connected with the international students counsellor, Tracy. She sent me a brochure and several mails on how UIS is a choice university so when I decided to apply to graduate school, they were on top of my list of schools to apply to. Why the switch from Economics to MIS? It’s not really a switch because Economics provides good knowledge of business processes and operations and because Nigeria is moving from manual systems to automated systems of operation, It’s important to have knowledge of Technologies that drive those processes and operations. Tell me about your study plan? My course is for 24 months, and I've got to complete 36 credit hours before graduation in courses like Business Analytics, Database Systems, Project Management and Process Management. What do you do? I currently work as Customer Service Officer where I am responsible for Communicating directly with all patients and ensuring that their experience in the hospital is pleasant, valuable, and memorable and Manage customer billing and invoices. We provide health services to some of the biggest banks in Nigeria, top oil and gas companies, Insurance companies and High-Net worth individuals. In addition to my responsibilities, I assist the Medical Director in putting together monthly claim reports for insurance clients. How would you be paying for this? My older sister would be paying. What does she do? She works as a senior project engineer with ….. She’s also been managing my mum’s assets since she passed last year. I will be approving your visa…… @justwise, fairheart, texrem, Lagosismyhome, walspring 2 Likes 1 Share |

Stevenssen: Okay, thank you for this. If I may ask, how can I know when new interview dates are available? It's not like the embassy would send notifications to everybody that new dates are available and I don't really know anybody else applying for an F1 visa. Because next month is a really really short time (in visa appointment wait time at least), and the people that have interviews next month should already know themselves. |
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 16 by Nobody: 4:30pm On Mar 27, 2021 |
Heyjessay:the only way for you to know next available dates is by checking your CGI Account But don’t spam the site checking plenty times a day at least twice or three times a day with intervals if not they would block you out for 72 hours 1 Like |
