STEM OPT 17 month extension is cancelled by US court effective Feb 12th 2016, leaving F1 Students in Jeopardy.
How true ?

I didn't even finish my first 12 months post-OPT. If extension is cancelled for the stem, then stem graduates has to find their ways like the non-stem graduates.

With regard to ur recent question to me sir, I'm still in 9ja, but will arrive next week in Queens, for a course at LaGuardia community college of CUNY. Therefore would like to know how to go about finding cheap accommodation there. Thank you.

First you need to find somewhere to stay while you keep tracking rooms on craigslist. You should find some where in north-east Queens but check if mta (subway not bus) reaches the place. Cheapest will likely be around $600/month for a shared room. You may be asked to pay the first and last month plus the security deposit (about $1800 to $2500 before moving in).

Finally found a place in college park. Behind greenbelt metro which is one straight ride to d metro near my school. Moving in tonight. All utilities included 500$.

ank you sir, but Craig list doesn't work here in 9ja, each time I tried to use it, it displayed ‘invalid IP........' Is spareroom trustworthy or scam-free?

I don't know craigslist doesn't work in Nigeria anymore. If that's the case, you have to use proxy IP to bypass the restriction. You need craigslist by all means. Shared room is reliable if you don't pay until you see the room with your own eyes and you can cope with subletting or slumlords. Don't say you're still in Nigeria, else, you will succeed in getting nothing.

When I was searching for a return ticket to Nigeria, I used only www.google.com/flights and I was able to get Delta for a total of $1800 for 2 adults.

Mind you, this is a two way flight from U.S to Nigeria and it's a Dec flight booked in early June.

So, you guys should try work with google, they compile from many flight booking websites and they suggest any cheap flight within few days of your traveling plan.

Many thanks and God bless! Flight already booked @ $1639

Will he need Yellow Card?

Did your online status change before you went for collection?

I didn't bother checking the online status. She told me at the embassy that my passport would be ready by Friday.
I received their mail on Thursday evening.

Hi everyone. I'm in U.S now. Paying my fees is challenging. I dont know what to do. I couldnt even withdraw cash cause the fees will run into thousand of dollars. I'm just stuck. If my sponsor where to send the money to me in naira, is it possible to pay my fees given the new cbn policy? What can I really do?

Your sponsor can wire the money from his bank account to the school's account at the official rate.

No be play because I order an item and it was on free shipping and it used more than 10 days and the seller told me sometimes items do get lost and my money was returned because the seller does not want me to write negative feedback on her eBay profile
