Abuja or lagos
Damite2ky:
Choose student or exchange.

Although, I made a mistake when I did mine, I had submitted before realizing I didn't change it from "ESTA denied" to "Student or Exchange".

My emergency application was approved nonetheless.

Just write a good cover note and upload the right set of documents.

Hello, I have applied for Lagos consulate via emergency interview and I want to change it to Abuja.. I have a question.
I heard we have only two attempts on rescheduling. I applied for emergency after choosing a random date of January 4 2024 for Lagos consulate, if am to reschedule my appointment to Abuja via emergency will I exhaust my limit after selecting a random date, or after I have booked for emergency for Abuja consulate?

Hello house, please what is the process to unlock 2020 unused receipt.
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 16 by dapsalmy: 9:16am On Jul 07, 2021
As to unlock, I want to believe you have paid another mrv fee which of academic and the one previously was for another class maybe B1/B2 or so right?. If so, book a dummy interview with your ds160 it will use the locked mrv fee, after successful booking then cancel it. Boom, mrv fee unlocked for the new receipt.

Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 16 by Jhry: 9:28am On Jul 07, 2021
Thank you very much for the information. However the previous MRV was for F-1. And the new receipt which I want to purchase is for F-1 also. When I called and mailed support_usatravel@gmail.com, I was told that I cannot use a new MRV until I use the 2020 MRV receipt. My feedback case has been escalated since 18th of February and no decision/solution till date.
Please what is the way to go cos my resumption is very close.

Good morning,

Please how do I confirm approval of my emergency application? And should I have gotten an email when I submitted my application? I didn't get any email and I can't see the emergency tab again on my home page.
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 16 by Approvalll: 9:48am On Jul 07, 2021

When you have a previous F1 mrv fee locked why did you bought another one??..... Well, just book and cancel, so you can input the new one and be good to go. Choose Abuja if you can, Lagos no get date lately. Thanks

I have added more info thank you


Good morning sir, I have seen your new post. I also saw someone else’s analysis and I must agree with the person. I honestly don’t think you can afford it and being an undergraduate student would make everything more difficult. I really wish I can help. I have been in this position but I decided to finish my undergraduate program in Nigeria. You should consider this option but I’d advice you reach out to family and friends, church members, pastors etc.

I wish you the best and I hope you get the help you need.

Please sir am seriously confused
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 16 by Tyleet: 10:27am On Jul 07, 2021
I made a mistake in my ds160. In the question, "WHO IS PAYING FOR YOUR TRIP?", I put in self, misinterpreting the word, "trip" to mean flight expenses, however, I just realized that trip actually means tuition and fees and everything. My uncle will be my sponsor. What do I do now, I already submitted my ds-160.

Hello, Good People Of NL;

I need help with some information;

- Are there good courses and good schools i can get admitted into if i apply with 2'2 (second class lower), Actuarial Science, University Of Lagos (2018 set).

- I don't want to take the IELTS, i believe i am proficient enough. I read somewhere some schools exempt Nigerians (But if it is compulsory, i definitely will take it).

- I am skilled in Data Analytics, Public & Media Relations, Insurance and Music Business. I have few works and internships to prove some.
I had previously travelled to UAE for 3 Months.

- I am sponsoring myself. No parents, no relatives. I don't earn salary. I am self-employed, i have 2 startups in Nigeria registered with CAC under my name. (A Music Agency and a Business intelligence Outfit).

What is the minimum i have to build in my account for how many months to enable my chances?

I read it's possible to get scholarships up to 70% or more sometimes. I really wouldn't mind getting one to assist me else i will have to sort for low fees courses and Programmes.

Will i be eligible for scholarship, considering i have 2'2?
Which scholarships can i apply for and how? Or make i no just waste my time?
Which relatively low-fee institution can i apply for?


I wish to apply for student Visa for Masters or Post Graduate Degree or any other. I don't mind another undergraduate degree, say; a course of 2-3 years.

I hope the right people sees this and i get help.

Thank You.

If you would want to continue with the Actuarial science/Mathematics line, you need to take some professional exams, at least, Exam P.

The Actuarial science program is highly coveted in the US, not more than 25 schools offer it at the master's level, believe me, I searched and surveyed all of them. I applied to about 2, Middle Tennessee State University and Illinois State University, but because I was coming with an engineering undergrad, no professional exam, and even with my GRE I didn't get any admission. So, be ready if you want to continue with it.

And of course, yes, you can always get funding, but it depends on the strength of your application; work experience in the field, GPA, GRE, professional exams if applicable and research interests and God's favour too.

Lastly, for the English requirement, I applied to at least 14 schools, all waived the TOEFL/IELTS for me. Sometimes it will be stated in their website that you need it, but a simple email to the grad coordinator can get this waived for you, while others state it categorically that if you are from Nigeria that you don't need it.

If you need any further information, just holla. Goodluck.

Hello bro.

Go to the DS160 access site. Fill in your details (location and Confirmation number) Simply select “Retrieve An Application”, then “create a new application”.

You’d be able to access the old DS160. Just that this time, you’d get a new “Confirmation Number”. Make the necessary adjustments and submit when you’re sure you’re done. Then proceed to the CGIfederal website, login and navigate to

“Update Profile”

Erase your old confirmation number and replace it with the new one
