Some departments don't offer more dan 2graduate courses in summer(my dept offers only one) so how do u take 12credits?

Walspring:


yes bro and with evidence to back it up.

zeezahbee:
Didnt you read his question? did he specify he was going for graduate he is asking a general question that all new international student wont have summer break. everyone knows summer is not mandatory, it is holiday but you can take some classes if you wish.

BUT
If you are new student enrolled for summer (just arrived to the usa and your i20 is for summer), you have to take 12 credits only if the department says otherwise

zeezahbee:
WRONG. You are to take 12 credit if you resume for summer. if you are already a student since spring or fall, summer is not mandatory.

mandybaby2007:

@zee , I need you to make contact with your sevis co-coordinator . I just got a mail from my school 2hrs ago and am not happy about it at all. So I need to get inputs from folks in other schools

HOTWATER:


@zee, I am graduate student,though currently offering some under-graduate pre-requisite and just got a mail about change in policy some hours ago. I just need some confirmation not based on what we know before .

zeezahbee:
send me a PM then

YW, make sure u get documentation for all d required immunization in Naija cos doing it here is very expensive.

Walspring:


The one you did when you are very young, am sure you can scan it and send it to them or you go to local government around you house or international airport to get it done..

mandybaby2007:

Evidence not needed, all dey want is a doctors signature, name and name of hospital with dates shots were given. Again I emphasize dates shots were given cos wen I came, I got a letter from luth stating nd listing dat I have taken all d shots and I am free from any infection or comunicable disease, my school rejected it on d grounds dt d doctor didn't state d dates each of d shots were given, so I had 2submit anoda document with dates each of d shot was given and dey acepted nd cleared me.

djmakson:


Thanks Walspring. Finding those old docs will be an uphill task o. I'll try get new ones at either of the places u suggested.

HOTWATER:


Hey Guys, I just got wind of an information , that new international students are no longer entitled to the summer break and they must take summer classes. Can anybody confirm this .

dicapino:

Hi guys.
Please I am planning to write GRE, in the coming month. Can someone kindly give me a guide to having a high score and materials.
Also, What are the chances of getting admission with a 2.2 into a good school?
Thanks

I paid for TB test, cost 132usd. Got my insurance card and filed for return. Got my money complete. See this Oyibo people o. I paid for immunization as well as I filled just one shot. 108usd I filled for returns but I got 80%back.

The best bet is to make sure you get any doctor that had a stamp pad, fill the damn thing as they say.

Walspring:


let give the thanks to God...

You can contact the international student advisor that you would like to meet any African organization in the school or tell your graduate cordinator to provide links to get intouch with other Africans studying there. I am very sure you'll get a link or a facebook page you can meet and you'll get all you want
