fairheart: The issue of posting school name has lingered for long. And I see some people trying to impose their opinion on another, which I feel is wrong. I've been reading transcripts for a while and it's only recently I saw people censoring school information with "xyz" "abc" etc. - I doubt if people gain anything from such. It's better such transcript is kept to themself. I check indian blogs I don't see any of this censoring, if for any means they are always in unison in schools they apply to. I don't see any fuss in posting your school information. Some say it shows laziness in approach for those that copy and apply there, well wouldn't you rather want your Nigerian fellow with you in same school. The idea of a school "casting" like WIU or University of new haven is a weak argument. People still get their visas from these schools, almost daily. The VOs are aware that most international students select these schools because of their low and affordable cost of attendance. My deductions should be, if anyone wants to post their school they should be free to do so. Let's encourage a symbiotic environment and not a parasitic one, the sky is too big for everyone to fly. Hoarding information because "we want people to suffer before they get it" is a Nigerian mentality that's why we have things so hard in our land. Visa will reach everyone, it's only a matter of time and chance. 45 Likes 5 Shares |

Anyone can say what they like, choose to post their school or not. I don't really care! But if indeed you only wanted to know how the interview went and how students performed, then you do not need to know the school they are going. It is utterly unnecessary for your information. Your argument is useless. Have you asked: Why am I so interested in other people's school when I have my own school, selected out of a well-done home work? NigPatriot: 6 Likes |

emmanuelle27: In this context, you miss the point. You need not to light your candle from another person's burning candle. You have what it takes create your own matches box and light your candle each time you need your light. Find your own schools. I know searching for schools and finding the right one is, perhaps, the hardest task in the entire application process, but do it. It is always worth it! Some of you here are just not ready for the truth. 2 Likes |

Jukwasi: You hate what you don't understand! Hating is a thing that people without understanding and experience do, and so you are free to keep hating. I don't care! That is that for you! And let me add here, I don't have anything against WIU! I have over 12 students I personally guide and prepare for interview. The school officials themselves complained that they were burdened by the number of application they received from Nigeria alone, including people applying for courses they do not qualify for. This is from one of my people who were approved in December. GUYS, FOR GOODNESS SAKE, I AM DOING THIS FOR ALL OF YOU!!!!! WHY DO YOU ALL THINK I AM AGAINST YOU? I AM NOT! BECAUSE OF INCESSANT PRIVATE MESSAGES I RECEIVED FROM PEOPLE HERE, I WAS FORCED TO PUT THESE STUDENTS TOGETHER SO THEY SYNERGIZE AND GET THEIR STUFFS RIGHT. I AM NOT LOOKING FOR A VISA FOR GOD SAKE! Let me explain this to you: the more applicants take i-20s from a single school, the more they will refuse applicants with such i-20. If it gets so bad, once they see WUI on your i-20, they just ask you few questions and the next thing is I am sorry. Do you guys want to be wasting visa fee? wasting time? getting heart broken? I am not so sure what you guys are against exactly! Maybe y'all are having someone pumping money into your application. But if you are working your ass out to make your own money, you will invest it on application with high chances of approval. Don't you guys get it? The purpose of the f-1 visa interview is to assess your credibility for the visa. Nothing more! When 100 people takes WIU i-20 to the school in 2 days, what do you think will happen? how do you think you will be seen? They know that for such high number of students to have same i-20 from same school, it must have been cheap. This morning, I have an applicant who is going to George Washington University to study human resources management, with total cost of attendance of about $60K. Her i-20 was shared with another VO and she was still approved. While it may be her time and God's favour, one thing stands out: her school. GWU is like an Ivy League school, even though it is a blank admission! I care about you guys and not against you! At the same time, y'all can do what you like! All the best! 21 Likes |

Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 16 by tunapawizzy: 11:41am On Jun 17, 2021 |
Gbengab0b0:Ur brother in the US must have filled the same details of parents as u on his DS160, maybe same address, maybe same sponsor sef. Looks like not saying the truth contributed to d refusal. VO probably asked that question cos he/she feels u have ties in the US and have a chance of not coming back, and u attempting to cover up that information perfectly justifies what the VO is thinking. U should go again and say the truth. 2 Likes |
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 16 by fairheart(m): 11:42am On Jun 17, 2021 |
Guys, I have nothing against any of you going to WIU. My advise for you is to prepare well for your interview. Know why you pick the school Know why you pick your course Know what you will be studying Be ready to link what you do now and what the degree will do for you. Don't copy people's transcript. Tell your story as it is, and make it unique. You may be refused and you may be approved. It is 50/50! In the first place, having admission, paying sevis and visa fee doesn't guaranteed visa approval. And being refused once, twice, thrice and so on doesn't mean it is over. First week of June, I have an applicant that got his visa at 5th attempt with WIU i-20! No scholarship or funding! But I know others that have been refused as well. Now, it seems I am done on this topic. If you hate a good advise and the person who gives it, know that it is a blessing unto that person! 8 Likes 1 Share |

emmanuelle27: Wo, I pity you! ![]() There is a reason why initiative and proactivity is part of personal leadership training in top universities. Last month, a young man sent me a message from this group. He got a fully funded phd admission from the University of Georgia. His admission even came with free air travels, and other benefits, with surplus. I looked at the i-20 and I was impressed. There was another one, University of Massachusetts. I have seen a number of them, in their early and mid 20s. Even their transcripts are usually unique; they don't copy, and they are here on Nairaland. What can you learn from them? Initiative! It is a powerful quality! When you learn it, you can move things most people in your age group cannot move; you start things yourself, you push yourself, you want the best, you do your own thing. That is simply what you do when you search for your own school. It is not suffering at all, but of course, you think your so-called Nigerian elders want you to suffer because, in your head, you have identify suffering with hard work. Where on earth is doing things right a suffering? I am not saying you must do everything by yourself or that you cannot pick up something from others to assist your process or journey, but do things right. You can always ask for help, and I think that is why most people are here. Don't despise a good advise, for it will guide you during difficult times. 13 Likes 1 Share |

customised87: Thanks for the feedback, seems Q1 is a bit tricky, just to clarify, you mean I should ask Umass if they can assist with transfer of Sevis. For Q2A - Contact Person or Organization in the United States? Your U.S. Point of Contact can be any individual in the U.S. who knows you and can verify, if necessary, your identity. If you do not personally know anyone in the U.S., you may enter the name of the store, company, or organization you plan to visit during your trip. |
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 16 by Damilare68: 12:53pm On Jun 17, 2021 |
The funny thing is the OP (congratulations by the way) who gained admission for Law actually put her previous admissions and even funding details, but then hid the current one. That itself passes across a message that fleshes out the elephant in this room. But, to each their own. Hide or don't hide. It is well with everybody. A lot of I, I, I, and me, me, me, and ego playing out here. But honestly there is no pressure to even share your transcript in the first place is there? 6 Likes |
