Pls can someone respond to this....Can someone transfer to another sch before first semester....if u got accepted into a better sch of ur choice....If yes, Please what are d procedures

It been answered before ...... Let me copy and paste my previous response . U guys read previous post oooo

Yes you can transfer after getting the visa to another school (provided you have admission offcourse) . Best to start it after you cross POE

The process usually is that you notify the current school's international office of your intention to transfer. The current school adviser will then have to transfer your sevis record to the New School with a transfer out date given. Until that transfer is done then new school cannot issue you a new I-20 (F-1 status).

You would be expected to fill out a new i-20 request form in the new school and once transfer is done and you get the new i20 then off you go .

The key to transfer is that your current school should release your sevis to the new school…If they don’t for whatever reason then hummmm you have a problem . If they do then, it is not complicated process...E. ... for more info see link

what ever reason that they do have, the sevis is not transferred or got terminated, what are the options someone do have?

PRYCE01:


I emailed the admissions office and told them that I couldn't do it at that moment and I'm really interested in going to their school... plus the deadlines were approaching!

They told me to have my councillor submit a request on my behalf and then I told them I've not been in contact with him for a while so it'll be inappropriate to have him send a request on my behalf as he's not up to date with my current financial status.

And voila, they waived it and I was able to submit my application!

...yeah I was telling THE TRUTH!

Application fee is the easiest thing to have waived by U.S Universities. Tuition and other fees, that na another story!

Unless you sell yourself to them in ways that would have everyone in admissions crying.

Nice one

Abeg oooo. Does anyone knows any school in maryland that takes in 2:50 gpa upwards for masters in maryland. Abeg oooo. I need help

You dont have to attend the first school , although some schools might insist before releasing you . but hey u changed your mind you changed your mind. You too can insist you want to be transferred out from beginning . The process usually is that you notify the first school's international office of your intention to transfer. The first school adviser will then have to transfer your sevis record to the second School with a transfer out date given..... You dont have to be physically present to contact the school for transfer but its best to do this once u cross POE .. SEND A MAIL OR CALL AND YOU CAN GET IT DONE ELECTRONICALLY.............so yes you can go to second school directly , initiate it and then hope the process goes smoothly .......... read the rest post again and the link

First, idobale fun obaluaye. Hearer of prayer.
It'll all started this time last year. Thank God I found this visa paradise. You guys are truly a blessing. A day to my interview, I land for obalende, book one random room for lewis street. Next moved out straight to Walter carrignton(me wey I nor sabi anywhere for lag), lost for road. Thank God for that Nigerian Samaritan that helped me out. Naso I land for the us consulate. Asked the security if the place was actually us consulate, he said yes. Told him I have an interview the following day, he advised I come early as people are fond of coming earlier b4 their appointment( my mind say make I sharply put street o.t. but I couple say make dem nor deny me before my interview). Fast forward second day I was there around 5.10am, people don dey there aidy, wonder if people nor dey sleep . immediately I saw the security working towards us, I just do a Kenny . So, I was the second person on the queue. We do all their normal parole. Now in the maim room where future are decided. We do the normal scanning then straight to the next line, still the second person. Found out na window 6 I go dey(looks Chinese bakan bakan young guy) immediately I remembered some folks said he denies and don't give time for explanation. That moment I prayed that God should do the best. The guy in front of me was approved. Next, Gods own scholar(these folks are a wonderful family) second born. Nazo I stand like one professor of mathematics lol, d comfy come.

ME: to pursue my PhD degree in mathematics at the university of Memphis after which I'll be coming back to take up a lecturing and research position at futa.

VO: why this university?
Me: am keen on joing prof Thomas hagen research group because he has an ongoing research that matches mine( this time I dey use hand dey describe, dey smile like say I won lotto). The purpose of my research with him is to understand the interaction between turbulence and wave which I believe will help me provide measures that will help reduce the effect of man made and natural disasters that befall our coastal ....vo cuts in....but I nor mind I complete my sentence ....coastal areas in naija.

VO: What are you going to do after your studies?
Me: I'll be coming back to Nigeria to take up a lecturing and research position at futa. Am also going to become a research consultant to Nigeria environmental management agency with a view to carrying out a research that'll improve.....vo cuts in again...(this point he stared at my i20 again and start typing like he's been doing since the interview Adam)

VO: so PhD in maths. When did you get your MSc?
Me: ooh actually b.tech was in 2014.

VO: (looks at i20 for some time) Do you have the letter from your professor confirming this funding?
Me: yes, I gave it to him

VO: (after reading for some seconds) this is so nice
Me: yes very great. Thank you. **I wan talk but I reason the guy nor too like talk**

VO: **types for some seconds**puts my passport in that kolo...you'll need your i20 at point of entry. Pick up your visa at this point. Congrats.
Me: thank you so so much. Thanks again.

Walked out and started jubilating nio....was like chai nah me be this. One random lost boy finally given victory.
NB: it not a complete success yet without my FAM christian129, Adebimpe and all my Gods own scholar family visas. Pray God grant you guys your heart desires(admission, funding , favor, anointing etc).

My love wishes goes to lagsmacrib for your love, care, time, experience (I dey solicit for more than Nairaland and mail sontin o...u understand na ). Oludare, mehn this guy DOPE.

Friend turn blood, CHRISTIAN129 this guy is from another planet, (your visa is a success aidy, and nor forget our parole. that big Disney cruise for Bahamas). Gods own scholars you're the best.

Bro, only if you know what Dangote does ni, all this richest man in Africa stuff I don't buy it. I've worked at Greenview Terminal, Apapa Quays. It's owned by Dangote. Once you're in and you just go straight.. The dirty water from sugarcane will be pouring down like rain.. I heard how his subcontractors they complain about how he pays late.. If that is all self, if you know what our ban lends to Indians and Lebanese you'll be shocked why they say there is recession.. From what I see, they should bring dollar rate down and recession will disappear. I've handled a Nigerian incorporated Company handled by Indians and they make money like hell.. I won't list companies o... Lol. That'd be unsafe for me. But just to note this is not what annoys me, what annoys me is that they misbehave and we back them up. One of these companies employ girls to clean prawns caught from our waters here, these girls are made to wash their hands in the same water, which would look like.... Just too dirty, then they'd be made to wear stuff like lab coats which is/or has already been used by ten people or more. Then they'll be made to stand all day more than 12hours and they'll be paid #650 Naira per day. This is soo bad. And if they disobey or show tiredness, you'll be shocked at what our person will tell them.. Na straight fire. And we know how much they'd make, I've handled their export documents before, hmmph! If you see what they make on export.. See I tired for my country o!

Nah him sabi but someone like me need to wise up and hustle for my own future.

Good evening house.... hope y'all re good! please can anyone help a brother out with TOEFL materials? the one I have is quite an old material..thanks in anticipation....@ walspring I still look forward to hear from you bro...

Check you email for it

tomisinobm:


Hello ma'am. Been thinking of this, why don't we post the link for the GRE materials, toefl material and visa transcripts and any other thing on the first page of the thread so we just refer to the first page when the need arises. It'd be easier that way.
Someone with a spot on the first page can volunteer to modify his post.
My 2 cents.

Cheers.

Cc walspring

The chance of doing it is very slim because most of us might not be online when a new thread is created, Only justwise can help to do such and i doubt if he will accept this free offer

LagosismyHome:


If people want something then they should put in little effort to find it. U cant spoon feed people all the time....it took me less than 1 minute to find the link using the search button on top ..... i only did it self blc i had a free moment. These days i just ignore any post that has been frequently asked ....

Anybody that needs any info there is a search button on top. ...use it ooo

Yes the search button option is the best option for them as well

gunther6:


Your GPA is not good, you GRE is not particularly awesome, I won't knock your hustle but unless you can craft one hell of a SOP, your funding is a long shot... That been said forget Illinois State University they might not even admit you not to talk of funding, I trust Professor Mohammadi ... EIU is the only school on that list where you have a minor shot if any at all for funding... You want honest... I just gave you honest

Its been a while...

I will buzz you via email or whatsapp based on that levels..

Hi house,
VISA APPROVED: I want to use the opportunity to thank the Nairaland USA visa travel family for their contributions on this site. I benefited immensely from your constructive arguments and impactful contribution. I have been a silent member of travel section 2013. I had my US F-1 visa interview today 7:30am in Abuja. Here is my transcript …
V.O: You are going to St. Cloud State Uni. How did get to know about this school?
Me: I got to know about SCSU from a friend who is an Alumni of SCSU and has returned to Nigeria. Also, out of all the schools I visited in the US during my vacation, SCSU stood out because of its great potentials and opportunity for research to equip students with requisite skills for career growth.
V.O.: Did you applied to other schools?
Me: Yes…..UNT, NC A&T Uni, MUN Canada & McGill Uni Canada
V.O Did you take GRE?
Me: Yes
V.O. How you going fund your education?
Me: My uncle will be sponsoring me.
V.O. What does he do?
Me: He is a real estate consultant and he also into oil & gas. He owns three gas stations in Nigeria.
Me: Your visa is approved. Here is your pick up letter and Form I-20…etc (I did not get hear the remaining words)

My great regards & thanks to Our Lord Jesus Christ and honour to Our Lady of Seven Sorrows (The Blessed Virgin Mary). I prayed for a miracle and God answered without hesitation. Please, don’t forget to pray and consistently be a state grace. I am a living witness. Finding God was the most practical thing I have ever done. My regards goes to every member of the house most especially those I had contact with via mail. Bigfrancis & imperiouxx, Amefrica, etc…Thanks. Pls, pardon my errors

Congrats and enjoy your stay in Obamaland

How is the election going over there?

Who dey lead for now, make una update us oooo
