mayford: Hey ๐ค I don't usually respond to F1 transcripts because there are many FAKE TRANSCRIPTS ON NAIRALAND FOR ADVERTISEMENT PURPOSES ... But i am responding to yours because.. 1. You are genuine . 2. No one has given you a near match advice . 3. I don't want you to repeat same error .. 1. Don't apply for MBA again . MBA, Mass Communication , any program that end with studies ie.... International Studies etc are counted in the USA as ; Personally Beneficial programs . There re lot of explanation on this but there is no space ....apply for MBA again if your employer is sending you over for it . 2. Are you sure you did not over-stay your B1/B2 visa when you and your department visited America the last time ? The CO (consular officer ) was supposed to ask you ...HAVE YOU TRAVELED OUT OF NIGERIA B4 ? But instead , she asked you .. EVER TRAVELED TO ANY OTHER COUNTRY ? 3. I don't know your age ranges but why is your elder sister sponsoring you for an MBA ? Was she the one who has been responsible for your academic upkeep right from the onset ? Why not MSc instead of MBA ? MBA are even for professional people (COs thinking ). 4. At the end of your transcripts , you were giving advice that future applicants should get fundings , tuition waivers etc ..who told you that ? Was it written in the Blue paper ? NOTE ; People may argue this , but the CO (Consular Officer) respects F1 applicants who got no fundings but whose parents or company or families have more than enough money to cater for all their academic expenses. Those who got 100% fundings in a program that won't be beneficial to AMERICA (because they knows you may not come back again) have had their F1 visa applications rejected ๐ The COs also see those students who are agitating for application fee waivers , tuition scholarships or loan as FINANCIALLY UNCAPABLE S who may jetisson their studies while in America . Therefore, visa issuance is not based on what amount of fundings you have aquired. The CO (Consular Officers) most times communicate with your Host-Institutions without your knowledge via your Form I 20 and from there , they decide your financial and academic backgrounds. Best Wishes ๐ |

NewBoyKhashoggi: This your advise is totally misleading. How can you say that those pursuing MBA and Communication Studies will have hard time getting a visa? You can't be giving this kind of advise in 2023. And also, you can't be talking against having funding, except you don't want Nairalanders to be getting visa to study in America. This your advise no jig at all, desist from giving them. 2 Likes |

Naijalarry: Hey ๐ค I knew some attackers like you will only twist my post in other for it to look bad in the eyes of the readers . And your phrase or sentences above is the only thing you could summarised out of my piece ? Alright , my post is misleading ..But your own advice below is not misleading or advertising to someone (@mayford) whose F1 visa was just denied ? HERE IS YOUR REPLY TO @ MAYFORD ; Okay, great. You should probably apply for fall 2024 admissions. You can reach out to me via email for MBA free application waiver codes to different schools if you're interested. There's still enough time to get GA funding for next year. Best Wishes ๐ |
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 17 by Naijalarry: 2:21am On Dec 14, 2023 |
NewBoyKhashoggi: Your post is misleading and even you knows it. You can't be telling people not to get funding for their education. Everyone knows that having a full funding in the form of GA is the easiest way to obtaining a US visa. Most VO won't even demand for a bank statement if your i20 has no deficit. This is 2023 for crying out loud. You can't be going around misleading Nairalanders. If you can't be giving good advises here, find something else doing. 3 Likes |

NewBoyKhashoggi: What statistics is the bolded conclusion based on? For your information, no school in the US would offer a program that is not beneficial to the community and the country as a whole. Every program is of equal importance. It all depends on the ability of the individual to carve out his/her niche in their respective fields. 3 Likes |

Hello, please I need the experienced advise. My husband and kids were denied F2 visa last month. I think main reason was the income he filled in DS-160 was low. We intend applying later next year. My question is can he change the income amount when filling the next DS-160 for new application? Thanks in advance |
Re: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 17 by NewBoyKhashoggi(m): 6:11am On Dec 14, 2023 |
Sharon8: Hey ๐ค The bolded conclusion is based on high percentage. For example , every VOs in all countries of the world gives out visas to those going for genuine intentions ...YET THEY SEE EVERYBODY AS AN INTENDED IMMIGRANT. This is the reason the US still roll out Visa Lottery . America is very large , they still need people from all over the world because COMING TOGETHER IS THEIR FOUNDATION. The kind of people America is looking for ========================= 1. A Ghanaian student going for PhD in History or Geography with 100% scholarship at Howard University..will have his or her visa rejected if he or she doesn't convince the CO (consular officer) beyond reasonable doubts to return and be useful for Ghana. 2. A Nigerian student with outstanding MSc degree going for PhD in Stem Cell , Molecular biology, Mathematics, etc at Oral Roberts University with no funding Will have his or her visa approved if he or she wow the CO as an outstanding scholar. 3. YOU KNOW WHAT ? America has more that 3000 higher institutions and the CO (consular officer) sees Every PhD student as a POTENTIAL LECTURER or RESEARCHER , therefore they give the BEST BRAINS THEIR VISA because if the best brain decide to stay back in America then America is gaining the more . 4. The best brain from Nigeria high school that apply for Bsc in Computer Science , Physics, Biology, Mathematics, Medicine, etc will be given visa WITH OR WITH NO FUNDINGS (when i say best brain i mean outstanding students ). A CO (consular officer ) was clapping for a young Nigerian girl back in the year 2014. The young girl got 9 As (A1 outstandings) in her WAEC subjects (science student) and the consular took time to verified her outstanding achievement. 5. Everything is not funding , funding , scholarships, scholarships . I NEVER SAID DON'T LOOK FOR SCHOLARSHIP Or Funds but ...issuing of your F1 visa is not based on scholarships or fundings. Best Wishes ๐ . |

NewBoyKhashoggi: You don't know what you're saying. The world doesn't start and end in STEM courses.

Naijalarry: Hey ๐ค Why is it that most of you conspirators usually point to just 1 thing out of hundreds. 1. It's only the STEM that annoys you of all the write-up ? ๐ Okay i will remove the STEM . 2. Your click are the ones misleading people indirectly by dolling out unreasonable transcripts ( where a consular officer says 'wow so you re going for this course , ok that's good" to an MSc applicant who has finished secondary school for the past 15 years ๐ She did not ask the gap years ...Before we open and closed eyes ..some will jump out and be typing CONGRATULATIONS .

Blegolicious: Hey ๐ค Don't use Self-medication. The Blue paper given to them at the embassy did not state any reason for their F2 refusals, therefore, DON'T THINK the income they filled in the DS 160 was low . Otherwise THINK LIKE THIS .... 1. When did you start your F1 program ? Is it MSc or PhD ? Don't you think it's too soon for them to join you ? 2. Your kids are perhaps still in school , and you still intend to reapply next month when school resumes ...The CO (consular Officer) saw them as intending emigrants. 3. Of the best categories of F1 students who have the highest chances of bringing F2 along to the US are PhD students with full or very good fundings. Do you fall into this category ? 4.

What should I do in other to increase my chances of getting admission and funding Please how do we connect? @ NUELUSA2023 : Send a PM or check your email and you'd see a message from me, reply the message. ARE You part of the senate of the University that you wanted to help @Ginikanwamic5 with for a PhD application ? Are you an employer of that University ?

Thanks for your reply, It's a fully funded PhD. My program started in August 2023. My i20 showed 9500 deficit for dependent and 1500 deficit for me. Total is 11k deficit My husband was asked about the 11k deficit and he was thrown off balance as he was focusing on 9500 deficit, defending d 11k later was an after thought to the VO He was also asked twice about his income of 850k per month written on the DS-160. Lastly, why he didn't follow me when I was leaving: Documents not complete (It was actually a silly answer) Those are the main questions Please what can he probably say in the next interview when asked 'what has changed'?

Thanks in advance Hey ๐ค If your account above is the near perfect occurrence between your hubby and the CO (Consular officer ) , then your hubby's inability to explain himself very well OR lack of verbal preparation caused them the denial . IN THEIR NEXT INTERVIEW ===================== 1. Don't change anything in your DS 160 since you are reapllying right away . The 850k per month is okay and it cannot be quickly changed over night . You may only fill another DS 160 in order to correspond with the next interview...ie date and location. 2. Psychologically, nothing is really wrong in all of your F1 and F2 applications , i will score your family 85%. SOLUTION ========= 1. Your husband needs rigorous PHYSICAL MOCK TRAINING . 2. He needs someone to drill him the possible questions and answers , the person will observe his body languages and make sure what he is saying aligns to what you guys inputted in your DS 160. 3. Don't do any online mock interview training where your hubby will be drinking coffee and watching CNN while doing online training . HE NEEDS PHYSICAL TRAININGS for like 3 weeks or rigorously. 4. He may be shy in the presence of CO or in the presence of people . He may be someone who can be lost within 5 minutes of barrage of questions...Those are what Physical Mock Training will do. PS: My own reasoning . Others are welcome. Best Wishes ๐ 1 Like |

Already , your wife's PhD full funded status has given you and the kids F2 a little edge but you still need to convince the CO verbally of your genuineness of intention.

Visit https://www.wes.org/contact-us/ and click on the Help button, then click contact us, write what you want them to do for you and make sure you include the reference number. It should be easier if you're still in contact with the agent, so that you will collect the login details and login to your account to access the evaluation.

Adebola156: Hey ๐ค Either 3rd class or 4th class , for you to be a graduate in Nigeria is a great achievement on its own. But nevertheless, i will not encourage the upcoming to be a lazy student ๐ American style of education is too flexible to the extent that even , a person without a bachelor's degree can do a master's degree but such person must have an outstanding relevant work experience. Back to your side , yes you can do a masters degree with a 3rd class. but if it is a highly competitive course or university, you might probably be rejected. 1. Start by using Google to search Public Research Universities in the USA ... 2. Email those Universities one by one (look out for International Graduate Admissions office ) and narrate your academic CGPA as well as your program of choice to them . 3. By the time you send mails to like 25 to 30 schools , you will certainly see the ones that will admit you ..perhaps with conditions like standardized tests , work or publication experiences etc. 4. Ask them every questions you feel important to , including how to apply , do they waive application fee ? Etc. You will be surprise to see how welcoming, flexible, and encouraging American Universities are by the time you start sending out your inquiries. Best Wishes ๐ |

@NewBoyKhashoggi Could you kindly stop misleading folks with your unfounded โtruthsโ. I agree that this is a public forum, but please stop! You are NOT a visa officer or consular. The best you can do is tell people to fill their visa applications truthfully and answer visa interview questions confidently, truthfully, smartly and succinctly to the best of their ability. Any other advice you have is a figment of your own imagination! Respectfully! P.S; Please note that this post is as regards your previous views/comments on getting funding to study in the US which is very much untrue. 2 Likes |

NewBoyKhashoggi:How do you confidently post something like this? Who are you in the scheme of things to decide which fully funded program is beneficial or not beneficial to America. Do you think schools in the US just churn out full funding or stipends to every Tom, Dick and Harry? Do you think full funding is beans? How would you write that students with tuition scholarships are likely to jettison their stay in the US?, how is that even logical thinking?? What do you think is the number 1 reason students run out of status if not finances. You think itโs that easy for sponsors to keep converting naira to dollars for upkeep of their wards? Oh, by the way, please do well by responding to me! Iโm all ears and eager to hear that which was making you laugh about my profile. Also donโt come at me with โyou respect me as a womanโ, thatโs a very tired line!. 2 Likes |
