Here's my funny transcript....

Mind you, I'm holding a conditional admission which has 36months course completion on its I-20. Morgan State University plays too much aswear.

So after every screening and all, I was called to window 2 by one pretty chic (I noticed she's been frowning all morning tho)

Me: Good morning ma'am (with a forced wizardry smile)
VO: *frowns* can I have ur documents pls?
Me: *I be like 'what I do na?'* Gave em to her

VO: Can u pls place ur four fingers on the (didn't hear her but I knew she was talking about the fingerprint scanner) pls?
Me: Placed four fingers on scanner and was staring at her... I knew she was done, but I didn't remove dem fingers until she said I should remove them.

VO: Where are you going in US?
Me: Morgan State University, Baltimore, Maryland.

VO: How long is your course of study?
Me: (for my mind, I be like 'beht why?' this girl no dey see komot eye?) 36 months

VO: What course?
Me: MS in Project Management

VO: Who will be sponsoring you?
Me: My uncle

VO: What does he do?
Me: He's contracted to Ekiti State and Ondo State Government and he's into real Estate. He buys, sells and develops prop.. *Cuts

VO: Did you write any test?
Me: Yes I did

VO: Which one (with strong face)
Me: (Me sef give am ogbeni, calm down face) GRE

VO: Can I see it?
Me: (She just owned me at this stage cuz I was looking for the LovePeddler print out that was making out with one of my documents) Sorry ma, gimme a min

VO: LET ME SEE THE PRINT OUT! (I guess y'all understands why I used the caps here)
Me: found it and gave it to her. (Her mind come down)

VO: okay good, Why this school?
Me: Out of the schools that offered me admission, MSU is the only school that has its school of management accredited by Association to Advanced Collegiate Schools of Business. While also going through the graduate research works, I came across an ongoing research by professor Ali Emdad that centers on Addressing Enterprise and Vendor issues in Data Center Infrastructure Management which is inline with my work. I contact... *cuts me*

VO: Where do you work?
Me: I said Airtel NG, but was transferred there by one of their contracted outsourcing and facility managem...*cuts* (I for just use vendor easily)

VO: When did you Graduate?
Me: Dec 2010

VO: What did you study as undergraduate?
Me: Pure and Applied Physics

VO: What do you do?
Me: I work..... (she was staring at me straight in the eye now) so I continued and told her, I work as a Data Center support and Analyst.

VO: Dancing center what?
Me: (For my mind, I be like... Dancing Salsa ni) Data Center support and Analyst

I though I already owned her here until she asked the question that killed me...

VO: What class would you be taking?
Me: Project management class with focus on Information technology management. Listed 2 courses in this class *cuts*

VO: Unfortunately........................................ I no hear the rest
Me: (With confidence level now below 10%) I just said the thank you and my crush on her died on the spot.

I don't know, but I think as a conditional admission student, I should have told her the 9 credit courses that would have qualified me for the major course instead of the major ones.

Thanks to Juntod, Innovativeame, Bigfrancis21, Slimmy and many others here that assisted in one way or the day and sorry for disappointing you guys.

Make I go clear my ish with my HR first, me that was thinking that I'd drop my resignation letter this week ehn.

I'm down but not out. Goodluck to others

Enquire very well, First Bank dont give cash, they give pay the PTA into a master card to use abroad, except if u have a dorm account, then u can transfer from the mastercard dollar account to your personal dorm account then withdraw over the counter. Am not 100% certain but my sis used that route to get physical cash.
I may be wrong so verify
Thanks. First bank now give cash for PTA. The person who attended to me said they are now authorize to do so, though they weren't giving cash a few weeks back.
