Good morning everyone.

Am not supposed 2 write dis on this thread, but because of some guys who are highly informed, I decided to put it here for ur opinion.

That being said, I cud not afford USA education, I decided to opt 4 Czech republic.

I applied to one of d university in Czech, but was sent an email to superlegalize my transcript n bachelor certificate. However, the transcript has b superlegalized both at d ministry of education, foreign affairs n Czech embassy both at Abuja.

Latter on, I was told to do d same on my certificate, which I never obliged.

My question now is this. Does a seal on ur certificate by Czech embassy renders it useless?

Remember, d seal is placed at d back of ur certificate.

I really need ur contribution on this.

Like u said the seal is on the back and doesn't make ur certificate useless. It's only if the front page is defaced that the certificate becomes invalid.

My official transcript sent over two months ago from my school was delivered by DHL but it is still not reflecting on my Application account as "received"

which school is that?
Are you sure you sent it to the right address?
Maybe you should call the recipient to check their archives of received document from the date it was sent.
sometime it takes some time to update ones application profile but definitely not two months

Just got my Toefl test score... a bit disappointed. I thought I was going to do much better. I go use am like that ni.
Reading - 24
Listening - 24
Speaking - 23
Writing - 29

Total: 100.

I don't even know if it's good enough for a GA. I'll have to ask the schools.

Take my advice: IELTS is better to an extent in my opinion (paper based, British English, u have the opportunity to review ur answers and make corrections, etc). My IELTS score was 8.0 overall and I heard the lekki ets centre is better than that ilupeju jkk cos of noise. Distraction and all. Not making up excuses but... anyhow sha. Moving on.

Contact the school admission office via email. Tell them this experience. DHL tracking will show the exact office the transcript dey. Another thingy is have you been able to evaluate the transcript? It might be the issue, pls try to contact the admissions office of that school. Good luck.

Good morning beautiful ppl. A good friend of mine graduated from university
nd want to go and live and work in usa, his agent told him f-1 visa will be good cause there are higher chances of being given visa through f-1 though he's not going there to study. Now my questions are
1. the agent wld apply for masters for him which is two years in usa, can he becomes a permannt resident by any means within that two years or he shld apply for another visa type
2: or shld he apply for an undergraduate program so he will be given four years mayb that two years might not be enough to get his p.R
He should apply for masters program. He should apply for STEM program and try to source for companies that would employ and file for H1B or he gets married to the love of his life who is a PR or Citizen.

Thank you for your concern MrMann1.
I have contacted the school admission office and I attached the Proof of Delivery from DHL in a mail to you. I hope it works!
I do not think the evaluation is the problem because my Undergraduate transcript was delivered and receipt acknowledged by the Graduate school. Moreover, the evaluation on both undergraduate and MS transcripts was done on the uploaded/student copies of both.

Yes! Definitely not two months! I have contacted the school. I hope It gets resolved in time, because I don't have cash to send another official transcript.
I was offered admission into Uconn for a PhD prog. So it seems school wants to verify all my documents are ok.

everybody with his or her experience. I understand your rant coz it reminds of the first time I applied for my transcript it took almost a year to get it, though the fault was not really from records but from the faculty of education.
I got my transcript when God intervened.
