Is visa application after the admission has been granted or after applying for admission? Which is better?

Please I need response

LettieM:
Good morning, please I’m trying to fill my DS -160 form for my f1 visa and they requested for my passport details, my current passport is expiring in January and I’m in the process of getting a new passport, I’ve done capture and everything, waiting for pickup which is delaying. Can I put the information of my current passport, while I wait for the new one which I’ll take to my interview??

Please, could applicant who is scheduled to appear for interview by 9am, shows up around 7am at Lagos Consulate and queue among 7am applicants. Your advice would be highly appreciated.

Good evening. I'm trying to apply to Eastern Michigan Uni on gradCas but the only required document to be uploaded is CV. I didn't see any thing like SOP. My school (Unilag) has sent my transcript to WES and its being evaluated.

Any idea on how to go about this application will be appreciated. Thanks

Hi everyone. Please must one’s sponsor for a US master’s or Associate’s program bear the same surname as the prospective student?

Thanks

pgal4christ:
Please I want to know how to go about the ielts exam.where to register, how long does it take,etc. Anticipating your response ma'am

Gokoyer1401:
What's are the documents required generally? If SOP and etc are documents listed on their webpage, i will advise you merge them together with the CV and submit it.

Or you can share the screenshot with us here. Remember to mask out your details.
Good luck.

good afternoon.
please can one get an f1 visa with an admission that is not funded. my husband work in the usa and will be funding my studies. what are my chances of getting a f1 visa. please reply me o. I am begging you.

Gokoyer1401:
I think you should convert all your documents including test score(if you have) into pdf and merge them into a file. You should be fine man. You can also email grad sch about this

NozinoGroup:



It depends on what exactly you want. Most Masters students are not funded.

To answer your question, ask or tell her that you’re interested in a fully funded (or partially funded, depending on what’s available and what you want) Research Assistantship or Teaching Assistantship.

I’m sure the graduate admission/program admission page has this information already.

If you’re a PhD student, you should ask when Funding decisions will be made.

NigPatriot:


Yes he asked a valid question, what kind of assitabtshio are you looking for, RA, GA, TA... But I think it will be better if you let him suggest whats best fit for you (your academic profile). There are many unannounced assitantships, so share with him your academic strengths and gest what options he gives. You can as well indicate your interests to other departments (maybe as a grader, administrative personnel etc). The options are numerous.

Plss am interested in d school Plss link me up 08131816198

Hello guys,
A Graduate school in US gave me application fee waiver because I told them that I am not financially bouyant to apply.

Recently, the graduate school said they had transferred my file to the department for admission recommendations. Anyway, without funding, i am not going to accept any offer from them.

My first question:
At what point can i request for I-20 for F2 applicants? Should in case I get funding, are they going to request for bank statement of account before issuing i-20 for F2 applicants.

2nd question,
if i send them bank statement with my name on it, is it not going to look as if i am being dishonest with my financial situation. I applied to so many places last year without any funding btw. I just didn't want to waste my hard earned money this time.

Thanksg everyone for your time.

Gokoyer1401:
No.
But if i am the visa officer, i may ask why this person is sponsoring(investing in) you. What's your relationship? Your maternal relation can be your sponsor, remember. So, you don't have to bear the same surname with your sponsor.

Guruindahouse:
My monicker here has been compromised for sometime now. I just managed to retrieve my account.

I have been following your posts here as a guest because our situation is not too different from yours because we want to apply for F1 and F2 visas but the is issue is that we are not presently in Naija. So, i just want to know if there is anyone that can advise us on what to do since our country of residence is different from country of citizenship (Nigeria)

I have seen cases where people are rejected because their country of residence is different from their country of citizenship. A

Pls all advice are welcome. Thanks

Gokoyer1401:
A friend of mine who was living with his family in Germany was in your similar situation few years ago. They have permanent residence (PR) in Germany back then.

Do you guys have PR? If the answer is no, this is beyond me. I think you will need to prove to VO about your home ties to Nigeria( country of citizenship since you are a temporary residents over there.

Any other suggestions are welcome by elders in da house.

Gokoyer1401:
Google register ielts test registration in Nigeria.
It takes 14 days for the results to be released (online). If you go for computer based, i think you will be able to see the results online within 3 days or so.
Goodluck.

Gokoyer1401:
FYI, there are more than 500 schools that we can apply to in USA.

The school that I am hoping to get the funding is Uni of Michigan- Ann Arbor. I have no idea about how to link you up other than you do your findings and apply there if you meet their requirements.
Good luck to us.
