Oga wellspring it's not always like that sir.If u do have a good reason for coming early and also u sound convincing,you are good to go.I entered yesterday and my orientation is still on the 13th.i had to confirm them that I had to come early to take care of accommodation and other stuff.I sounded convincing.That is the key word.You have to be convincing.
Though I saw guys being sent back from Abu Dhabi bc of same issue.

Yes you can, but brother, you can be sent back even with your convincing reasons. Its just at the discretion of the officer to decide either to send you back or allow you in. Kentucky, how do you guys cope?

It's probably for those who don't know their rights.

For me, once i observe the law at any POE and you send me back? Then it's time to "chop meat". Lol.

I will take you guys to Court and next time, when you see a blackman, you respect him.

The new ds160. I'm gonna do it first thing tomorrow morning. Don't have acces to a scanner tonight.

All the best Senatorbee

Conversely, if you have computer connected to mobile network or WiFi, u can still have the soft copy of ur new ds160 in PDF format sent to them without the stress of scanning the hard copy of ur new ds160.

All u have to do; go to the visa application website,click on ' retrieve application' option, enter ur ds160 code and answer the security questions, it then displays ur new ds160. Then, print it to ur file possibly in PDF or email it to ur email address.
Better still do as u wished; suit urself.

Bros mattew1234, thank you for sharing ur experience at the POE at far away UAE,
"Custom and border protection offices will review your documents and compare the information with your SEVIS records, if the CBP office at the port of entry cannot verify the student's information, or if the student does not have all of the required documentation, the officer may direct the student to an interview area known as a secondary inspection, secondary inspections allow inspectors to conduct additional research to verify information without causing delays for other arriving passengers. Being PREPARED reduces the risk that you will be sent for secondary inspection" culled from somewhere, no body would send u home for anything, show them your passport with Visa, form i-20, ur flight tickets and be within the 30 days to resumption,

frankunderwood:

My visa was scheduled for 7.30 in Abuja on June 30, 2015. it was calmer and saner than the Lagos embassy (As I read from the posts here). After the bio-metrics, the Interview process started. the Vo's were fair, they allowed you make your case. for every five applications rejected, two were approved. It finally came to my turn and I was called to window 6, A lady (Probably in her mid-twenties) was the Vo.


Congrats bro

Pls house can anyone lists the name of schools that do not require TOEFL and GRE.... Either both or one..... Thanks
it's not advisable to see fire and still stick your hands in it.. save yourself the chances of visa denial and take TOEFL and GRE. Not everyone is lucky at the embassy. If you insist on looking for schools that won't ask for TOEFL and GRE, then search Google and make your choice.. I'm just saying though. Good luck in your endeavors

Orientation date is different for the start date on the i20.

On the i20, it might say student resume 08/09/2015.
So student can arrive from any Poe from July 9 upward .

Orientation is a welcome program. Some school do it a week before class begins
