Thank brother you mean ré strategize to request for another EA in same Abuja they just denial my EA ?

Hi guys, it's been a long time here. The page helped me during my admission and visa process. So many pages has passed. Congrats to all those that have gotten their visas already! And to those who were delayed, don't give up, refire. The end goal should be your motivation.

To anyone coming to Texas tech University in Lubbock this spring, feel free to reach out to me. I will be giving any one arriving to Lubbock a free ride from the airport to their destination now till when school resumes.

PS: please already have arrangements on where you'd be staying prior to arriving.

One love.

Pls, how did you apply for the mpower loan? Did they require you have a u.s citizen as a co-signer? And is your school university of Missouri, Kansas City or where? Thanks

MrBammy:

I applied via the website. No cosigner needed. The school is the university of Missouri Columbia.

But exactly Fam, but I think he is quite difficult to satisfy.

I paid the 200 o
For a page of photocopy

Hello my people, please help me o

I scheduled a date in Lagos towards the end of next year, I then applied for emergency appointment hoping to get it approved l. However, I haven’t still heard anything from them.
Now, I’m thinking of checking available dates in Abuja I want to see if I can change.
My question now is;

1. Can I cancel the appointment I have secured which Is towards the end of 2022 while I look for a date in Abuja simultaneously?
2. Will it be possible for me to access Abuja even after I have scheduled a date and applied for EA in Lagos.


Ps: I deferred from fall’21 to Spring’22, I don’t want to defer again �
Thank you

EstherOA:
YES!! Apply.

But some people here are saying the dates are full, people should defer their admission.

I chose self

Mine didn’t, only thing I felt was pain/heaviness on my arm….. Thanks, I already booked a hotel.. Thank you

Taciturnity:
Hope yours didn't upset your body system like mine did.. BTW.. Optima hotel is close to the consulate.

I just got approved for Abuja surge. I applied for emmergency on saturday and received an approval few minutes ago asking me to reschedule from now till 18th. Going to my Cgi to reschedule, the earliest date I saw was 10th january 2022. Nothing like 18th december or before. I shapely picked that date, which is also before my resumption date.

My worry

The approval letter stated that the emergency date is only valid form now till 18th. If I dont get a date before then I won't be allowed to see a consular.

Do you thinks getting a date for 10th january 2022 stating Emmergency as priority would ruin my chances of getting interviewed?
