lovelani: Sorry about your denial but i think i have mentioned it to you. .... you have a Bsc in Computer science so to say you are going for another bsc in information technology is very hard to convince a VO. .... both degrees are very similar and doesn't show progression. Especially when your first degree is from Uni of Ibadan which at least in Nigeria standard is a reputable school so u should show progression |

lovelani:really sorry your denial,but going for another degree in information technology doesn't make sense, it just look like going for another degree in computer science because both course are similar, so my advice is for you to defer and change your course or you go for masters 1 Like |

Greetings to everyone in the house. Please, I'd appreciate any piece of advice from the gurus here with regards to my admission and chances for funding for Fall 2017. My undergraduate major was Petroleum Engineering and I don't really want to further in that area 'cos it's quite streamlined and also considering the current situation in d upstream sector of d oil n gas industry, I don't think I'd be wise to do Masters in d same field. I am considering switching to Mechanical Engineering (or something close) which I think has a better job prospects over there in the US.....kindly correct me if I'm wrong. The problem now is that most schools i checked in d US require UG degree in mechanical/aerospace engineering as a prerequisite for Masters/PhD in Mechanical Engineering....which means taking some UG course before d masters program n this requires more money. ![]() Please can anyone kindly help with schools where I can be admitted in Mechanical Engineering with full or partial funding for Fall 2017. Funding of any form (GA, TA, RA, etc) is a priority, and the schools ranking for now doesn't matter to me. Please, can someone also suggest other STEM courses which I can easily switch to in order to secure funding and for better job prospects after graduation? Ur assistance will be highly appreciated. I want to start applying immediately to meet up with most schools priority deadlines... Below is a summary of my profile: UG Degree: Petroleum Engineering CGPA: 4.23/5.00 (3.57/4.00 after WES conversion) GRE : 305 (154Q, 152V, AW 3.5) TOEFL: About to write Years of Work Experience: 3+ Don't know how to proceed now.....Please make una help me.... ![]() |

lovelani:Vo: what benefit will this course be to you Me: it will boost my managerial skills and make me more effective in my communication skills and my mode of reasoning ethically. Your reply to that question was too vague and general. You needed to be specific and clear about how you plan to use the course to further your career back here in Nigeria. Let the school send another I-20. Before it gets here, once it's ready, they can give you the details you'll need to book an appointment while you pay the fees in time for a December interview, most likely. All the best! |
Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 10 by happyday: 5:07am On Nov 17, 2016 |
seeker88:Can you convince yourself why switching will be a plus for your career? Do you want MechE or 'other STEM courses'? You did your UG, so you should be able to know what field you want to advance in. One good thing about STEM though is that you should be more concerned about research interests, more than the department. There's a great deal of overlap between different Engr departments these days. E.g. You can work on Energy research in Chem, Mech, Met & Mat, Biological, Agricultural or even Elect. As for the schools, you'll need to get a ranking list of grad programs in MechE, check the ones that fit your profile and dig up more. All the best! |

seeker88: Hi, just a few schools I know of... but I don't know any other STEM course u can go for. I guess that should be based on what ure interested in.. University of New Mexico Texas A & M University College Station University of Illinois Urbana Champaign Michigan Technological University New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology University of Maryland Baltimore All the best! |

happyday: I am too amazed by that interview. VOs didn't fall from he sky. They are aware some schools give general major before moving to specialist major. The truth would have really helped him but instead he chooses to mumbo jumbo. |

spaceshipz: You guys should use google...all the info you need is out there ![]() Anyway your brother should find western union where he is and do some steps before he gets to western union office.... https://www.ice.gov/sevis/i901/wu-instructions Alternatively he can pay through a certified check drawn from a U.S. bank....but this takes longer to clear https://studyinthestates.dhs.gov/paying-your-i-901-sevis-fee |

Hello Everyone, As we all know, this is a forum to be for students who intend to study in America. My contribution is that people should do more personal findings about schools and programmes. Since the application window for most universities in US is still open for Fall 2017 intake, the College Week Programme is ongoing. You can ask questions directly from representatives of schools in the programme. Here is the link http://www.collegeweeklive.com/app/ |
