Pls in evaluating by WES, will I have to send it directly to the school or jst upload my own copy to the school's portal
Your Nigerian university will have to send your transcript directly to WES.
After evaluation WES will in turn send your evaluated transcript + your original transcript (depending on the WES service you chose ICAP or BASIC service) to your desired school in the USA.

Any lady going to Minot state university this fall? please show your face.
Carlfavour I hope preparations dey go wella I just got my ticket last week.... Na gift sha....

Undergrad even better ...there are much more opportunities for them if your SAT is high and school gpa. Have u done SAT? , if no study very hard for it and check a previous post .

I have pasted a link for schools with full ride opportunities before . Those are the ones you need to target, for example if you go to Howard University fin aid page. It shows u the scholarship level based on your SAT so u can pick the level you want and aim for it
I have! 1860 was my score! I'll check with them!

I do not want to go to college in cold states that's why I targetted Florida. Health Issues!

Fair enough, health is primary ... so target schools in the south of USA for warmer climate. Florida weather is nice , Even parts of Texas and Arizona are very warm as well so u can check those out and check the average temp of the school city .

All the best

Hard one for me to comment as i have not been to any of those states but one for a conference. .... Racism is real in some states but not so obvious in others so your concerns are very valid and if its me i wont go to where i am not comfortable with but that been said u can go there despite racism and meet very welcoming people and love love it..its a hard one to call.

Find on google if they have any international or african student association and see if u can find out its members and find a naija name or africa sounding name . Then if u do, go search for d person on social media facebook and send msg. Someone on ground would be d best person to advice. ... or randomly search the school on facebook,u might find a naija in the school then send a msg .

Good luck

I don't think this is true cos I asked my brother in the UK to help with SEVIS payment . He was told in Western Union office that such payment can not be made there

Sorry to say or ask this; do you send the money to your brother yourself or he wanted to use his money to pay for you like giving you as an assistance

If No then the story about UK people (Nigerian) hardly give money to their home people is what I can imagine here and he surely deceived you as well.

Western union in UK can make the payment for Sevis fee, kindly imagine Cotonou using the platform and UK can't use it, don't you think is absurd to hear that

I could remember someone here more than a year now, (s)he Sevis fee was paid all the way from UK.

The person at the Western union no know him work be that ..... i paid 2 people Sevis in london this may and then in june . All i did was take the print out from the system and took it to western union on the high street. D attending guy told me what d pound equivalent was and we were done in less than 5 mins in both cases. Less than 24hours later payment was reflected.maybe ur brother didnt go with the printout so d WU guy didnt know what he wanted

The western union guy in one case immediately knew what i was talking abt which made me feel others have done it as well. If i remember in the other, d man at first didnt know what i wanted but checked his system and saw what i needed done. If in doubt ask ur brother to go back there and tell the attending person to ask a colleague or the manager. It done easily in any western union in uk, that i am very sure of because i went to 2 separate WU money shop .

Don't mind the guy joor, he didn't know that his brother told him a parable he can't decode. gringringrin

WES will contact your school to confirm the authenticity of the transcript before they start the evaluation.

It depend on schools because after your evaluation and you want to send to more schools, you can scan your own copy to the schools or you will just go to WES portal and apply for the evaluated transcript to be send to any schools you want to apply to.

Most schools always ask for official copy from WES instead of scan copy.

You get scholarship if you can write SAT or TOEFL/IELTS with a good score and only if you meet the requirement of the schools you applied to and GA is for student who applied for masters degree

I'll advise you use the same signature to prevent stories that touch. You don't know when nor where someone will notice the discrepancy. Even if the VO doesn't see it, the POE immigration officer might notice the difference...Just maybe

You are right but we should not forget that there is nothing bad if someone have more than one signature.. Even in US the way they sign is different from our own way and majority used their names if I am not wrong.

Its better to do the right thing because using another route more than student route then you must be ready to prove serious home ties..
