I cannot deny that I have learned something new. It was like school debates. The two parties had strong points but you just know the one that applies to your situation. And more importantly the information was well passed. Everybody testifies. 3 Likes |

Maybe justwise should ban Twoods again so that he can contribute more.Lolz. PHD won't be a bad idea in this Trump's country for now. During my school career fair, most companies require you to be a citizen/PR/asylum before you can apply for an internship or coop position s. Infact an HR ask me if I have other plans to get GreenCard because they aren't ready to file for anybody. The military guys advised me to go and get married and come back to apply.. Peeps, start working towards something maybe pHD,it will always come handy.Kudos guys. 1 Like |

akin3102: i need to be banned... i have work to do. ![]() Whether we like it or not, the H1B visa is going to be revamped soon and its probably why companies are now asking that folks have at least a PR before taking them on. One thing that is likely going to be in your favor (at least based on what i've been hearing regarding ideas to reform the H1B/employment-based green card route) is that preference will be given to bigger companies and people with phds who studied in US universities. An American can afford to stop at the bachelors, we have to aim higher... 11 Likes 2 Shares |

akin3102:At times you start questioning your parents why they gave birth to you in Nigeria, Why Nigeria cant be as great as US..why we are backward in a country full of milk and honey, i just checked and i saw 1$=#516, i could not close my mouth....I was like what??Imagine white folks you know you are better than, having full time jobs and internship positions but you, you cant work more than 20hrs on campus. And to get job after grad you still have to hustle. If not that as a Nigerian you have to hustle and attain a higher height, only few will be interested in Phd.

epistlegcfr: It's true that most stem phd programs are funded by the department. They need a fat bank statement that covers your tuition in case you lost your funding due to poor performance. In this case, if it happens before/by your second year, you would be given a second masters and asked to quit. In regards to your first post, even if you get epistlegcfr: There is no program that wouldn't ask for a minimum from any student even if it's an easy to get in program. To get programs without GRE you would do something like this: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=A+university+that+does+not+require+GRE+for+phd+computer+science PS: Most phd programs would ask you for GRE since they are going to fund your studies. With the GRE scores, they can select dependable students who are worth an investment. epistlegcfr: But unfortunately, you will hardly get one if not what you researched yourself. As a grad student, TOELF/IELTS would be waived by most schools. |

Hi International students, please what do you use to file your taxes as an international student. if you manually fill a form 1040NREZ, how do you calculate what you are supposed to get back as tax refund? I also dont want to use a firm. I want to file my taxes myself. Thank you. |
Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 11 by Nobody: 4:02pm On Feb 17, 2017 |
How will you be asking this sort of question on NL? Email your grad program director and cc the grad school and they will let you know the drill. As far as I know, K-State only needs your uploaded transcripts until when they accept you. The most reliable information comes from K-State, email them instead. ridsan4real: |

HoneyBronzed: Ask your school, glacier nonresident alien tax compliance system is what you should use. |
Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 11 by Nobody: 4:32pm On Feb 17, 2017 |
HoneyBronzed:Biko don't manually fill anything, go to OLT tax website and file your tax there, its 15$ to file the federal tax, then print out your state returns and send it to your state tax office. Glacier doesnt e-file tax returns, i would have suggested that you go to your school international student office, they should have glacier code for about 5$, i also dont think glacier will fill your state tax return form, that means you will still have to paper file your state refund. If you manually file (paper file), it takes about 6months to get your refund if you have a refund. The latest 1040NR form allows e-filing now, as at last year, they don't. So if you want your refund quick, E-file is the way. It should take less than 3weeks to get your refund with OLT Tax. You can also check refund amount using OLT tax or sprintax or Glacier tax websites. Those are the only software that file 1040NR. Dont go and use any agent because most of them dont know anything about 1040NR, what they will file for you is 1040 and that's illegal, it will bring out more Tax refund..even more than what you paid as Tax, even though it might not bite you forever but you never can tell.. 2 Likes |

sirRiddy:At times when we say people ask some questions that are meant for Grad coordinator here, its like we are harsh or not friendly. This kind of questions should even be used to build rapport with the Grad coordinator but people decide to ignore the Grad cord and when time to hustle for funding comes, they pop up in the grad cord mail inbox all of a sudden without having any rapport before. Its not rocket science 1 Like |

femi321:True talk bro. I started talking with my grad coord from Naija, he said they didn't have funding. When he saw that I am a promising student,he took me to the dept chair to find something for me. To cut the story short, he facilitated my funding and he's been like a father to me here. He is also my advisor and it all started with a simple email. People on here want to be spoon-fed. 3 Likes |

OluDare01:Its not rocket science, that how it is done. I don't even have problem about spoon feeding but for our own good its always better to be proactive and learn how to fish rather than being fed. Its this same Grad cord that make the most of the decision about hiring TAs. No one is saying people shouldn't even ask questions because ignorance is not an excuse but we should try to direct the question to the right authority and if we are not satisfied , ask other people.I am very sure the grad cord of all the schools i applied too then have never received the numbers of email they received from me, from one single individual even though some of them never replied while some replied at the speed of light, its after i don't get a concrete answer from one or two then i call people like Sirriddy just to have a 2nd opinion because he was doing the same thing as me..We neeed people, a tree doesnt make a forest. You can never over-emphasize the gains you get from building rapport with Grad Cord.After all these epistle, some people will still come here and say ''at times they are scared to ask questions here''...You shouldn't be scared, people are just advising you based on their own experiences, its now left to you to take it in good faith or hold grudge. 3 Likes 1 Share |
