Hello house.. Can the same VO who denied you previously interview you again? |
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 16 by NigPatriot(m): 9:12am On Nov 04, 2021 |
Phunmilola: To be honest. Nothing is certain until it is actually certain. Don't rely on just that. If you can: apply to more schools. Applying to one school has enough risk innit. 3 Likes |

HazelCanny: Ideally No, but in circumstances where there is no other choice, it has happened. |

Abfey: Yes, apply for emergency appointment asap, attach your I-20, ds160 confirmation page and sevisfee payment. You can add assistantship letter too. Let the content of your letter be concise |

S/he asking you to apply simply means that you are 'qualified' for admission. However, you stand to compete with other eligible candidates especially if funding is involved. For success, you need to put up a good application with strong recommendation letters. Go for it! Phunmilola: 4 Likes 1 Share |

Good morning people I have a question, I was denied an F1 visa in June, but I later got admitted to another school, and reapplied for another visa, I noticed that when I was applying for the first visa, it asked for my sevis id for the school I wanted to attend then, but now that I am going for a new school, I tried changing the sevis to the new school but I can't find it on the update profile section of the portal, what can I do, or it doesn't mean anything? P. S: I already scheduled an appointment. Thank you. |

Sorry for the denial. I was wondering, do you mean no funding of any kind at all for the PhD and your field is STEM? Lordjones: |

Ellawhyte55: “ HOW TO SEARCH AND FIND GOOD SCHOOLS FOR YOUR PROFILE. 1 Google is the first place to start. And cost of attendance and profile of the school should be on your mind as you begin. First, you want to go to a school your sponsor can afford. Secondly, you want to be considered for funding that will come with monthly stipend to offset living expenses, so that you will not worry how to survive (especially if you can't get adequate support from home while in the U.S). Thirdly, you want to study at a school that offers courses that will equip and prepare you for the next phase of your career. You need specialty, broad knowledge, internship opportunity, etc. Remember, I am talking to students who genuinely want to study in the United States and are willing to do the work. Now, the three points should be in mind before you begin your school search. 1a, Be creative about it. Use search strings that is worded with your wants, i.e affordability, funding, good course., etc. Let me give you a list: AFFORDABLE UNIVERSITIES IN THE U.S FOR MASTER'S IN CHEMISTRY (For blog posts and sites that catalogue affordable schools for chemistry). BEST UNIVERSITIES IN THE U.S FOR MASTER'S IN AGRICULTURAL ECONOMICS (For top ranking, research-driven universities for the mentioned course) UNIVERSITIES IN THE U.S WITH ASSISTANTSHIP FOR MASTER'S IN MATHEMATICS (For schools offering assistantship for mathematics). As you would see, search string contains what you want Google to show you, and that is what you will see. The more creative you're, the better. Your search result will bring up blog posts and sites that discuss and list universities for what you want. Then, you visit site by site, and from there, make a list of the schools you see, and keep away. When you are done, visit those schools one by one. You could make a list of 20 schools, or as much as you want. 1b, Get your schools by choice of U.S States. If you were to go to the U.S which state would you like to study? California? Texas? New York? Tennessee? Etc! Select best 3 states of your choice or that you have a family member or friends. Go to Google and type, for example, ALL UNIVERSITIES IN TEXAS. Google will bring up sites and blog posts with list of these schools. I advise you look for Wikipedia page for all the schools on the list. As a study-abroad consultant, Wikipedia [/b]page for all schools in each U.S state seems the most resourcesful. There, private and public schools in the state you search is catalogued, so you get to see list of public and private schools in that state. You see their acceptance rate as well. All you do is open those schools in new tab, then read about it and get the school website directly from them. It is simple, except you are not computer literate. [b]2, CHECKING FOR ASSISTANTSHIP: When you open the school webiste, go straight to academic and you will see undergraduate and graduate programs. It is always under academic. Click the one that applies. Check list of programs offered and pick the program (s) you are interested in. Check program courses, and look for assistantship/scholarship. Every program page has information for assistantship/scholarship. If your master's program department offers assistantship, you will see the information there. Read it and understand condition for selection. If that school is okay, make a list on a paper and keep. You can do for as many as you want. 2a, Immediately you review your program webpage, look for the "Graduate Coordinator" or "Program Director". These are the faculty members with information on funding. Your duty is to contact each school before you even apply to them. I always advise my students to contact their program coordinator before they apply. Get the email and name of this person. Take your time to write a 3-5 paragram message detailing your course, undergraduate GPA, that you are interested in the program for so, so admission term, and that "what is the chances of being selected for a graduate assistantship or departmental scholarship if admitted into the program." ALWAYS CONTACT YOUR POTENTIAL SCHOOL BEFORE YOU APPLY THERE. 2b, If you compose your message well, your program coordinator will be compelled to tell you what is obtainable according to your profile, GPA, experience, etc. They always tell you what is obtainable. You can then use this information to decide if you will apply or not. In December last year, a student followed these step and the two schools he contacted promised --right in their response to her message--that based on his profile, if he apply, he will be considered for admission and assistantship. He did, and both schools admitted him and offered him assistantship. He got his visa last month with deficit of $1K. If the response from the person in charge of department seems favourable, go ahead and apply right away. The earlier, the better for you. 2c, Don't underestimate your potential of getting into top schools. Explore those too. Make a budget on how many schools you plan to apply to. Be principled about it. Be creative. Use initiative and push yourself and do your thing.” 22 Likes 3 Shares |

I have to drop this here. Maybe it would encourage someone. My brother used his "lecturer" in Nigeria as his sponsor. Can you imagine that? And guess what? His Visa was approved! And that was his first time of applying or even travelling outside Nigeria. The VO asked him 'why would she sponsor you'? His answer was, 'She is my academic mentor and project supervisor' If you have a sponsor that is related to you, and have a verifiable account statement, I think that's something already. Meanwhile, my brother finished his master's in April and had already started his PhD this fall, fully funded. Non-STEM field. 8 Likes 1 Share |

Adekunleadele:I don’t think you can edit sevis ID after picking a date. You should have changed it before that. Try and call them to see what they can do about that. It definitely matters if you go to the interview with a sevis Id that doesn’t match your current I-20 |
