It is not a new development. It has been there for a long time, even request for high school transcript. If evaluating your transcript would give you scholarship chance, then it's not a bad idea.

Yea, it's not new. But some schools just adopted the policy very recently, and many are yet to.
So you know abt this and have been attacking me since.

slimmy2005:
Did she get the 100% scholarship and admission?

Yes she got full ride 100% tuition/fees for 3 out of 5 and 2 gave part scholarship .... and So far has had two great internship opportunities

slimmy2005:
are we talking about the need for evaluations or the means? In as much as your grades are not from US or Canada, you sure need an evaluation. But most schools do evaluate themselves with no fee attached. Well, it's clear when you can equate the level of education with the response.

You are still a high school graduate, so I'm not surprised at your response. You will understand better when you land here, that is if Trumps VO are meeciful enough to act right

What if am already done with my undergrad? What if am already in the US?
Never make unnecessary assumptions

Lol

What's so funny?

Sent you a pm. Pls I wanna get a little info from you. Thanks

This didn't call for insults. I aired my opinion which is a new devt being adopted by many schools now for undergraduate admission. I never insulted you. And by the way, you are not working with WES, so don't make such wrong assumption about them, that 90% of their evaluation are undergraduate or graduate transcripts. Make proper research before coming here to talk nonsense. Go to the department of education website data collection, about 75% of ALL international students in USA are pursing undergraduate studies at either colleges or universities. And majority of these people are from non-english countries like China, they all have their high school transcripts evaluated into US system by WES or other agencies. So don't say what you are not sure of okay.

Its cool bro.. Cheers.

saninwa:


If you are passionate about the school and that's a requirement; there's no crime in investing your money to get what you want. Almost all top rated schools require ALL international student to evaluate their high school record, except Canada which share a similar system with USA. No special treatment is given to any other particular country.
Not all admission offers can evaluate results into US grade system without making mistakes about some countries system. Don't also forget that fake results and transcripts exists in many countries. That's is the need for an recognized international evaluators, that also verifies the result or transcripts before evaluation.

This is questionable. Probably you're mistaking high school record (transcript) for high school equivalent (waec) but was successful with your admission. Adcomm asks for evaluation from professionals from undergrad-transfer and graduate to simplify the job and get accurate cgpa. The evaluator has to deal with large amount of data (course by course) and take the burden from adcomm. High school applicants (freshman) don't have any substantial cgpa. SAT score and high school equivalent (waec) is enough to get the admission and to obtain scholarship, except where record (transcript) is required. If I was asked the same question, I would evaluate from JSS 1 to SSS 3 and submit my waec result as is.

WES will evaluate only WAEC from Nigeria

I understand you sir, but International credential Evaluators like WES evaluate only WASSCE from Nigeria and other waec countries. They just regard wassce as our high school transcript, because it's standardized and can easily be verified by the waec. They don't accept internal results(high school transcripts) because such can greatly be manipulated by the school, trust Nigeria na the worst is that most rural public schools in our villages don't even know what is transcript or how to prepare such document. At least I have experienced one before while trying to get transcripts for a friend. I had to explain to the principal what transcript are, since they can't get the guy's results from ss1, they just manufactured scores for him they hardly keep records which is so bad. That's the reason Evaluators like WES regard wassce as our transcript and can't accept any other thing.

What do you need? I don't think I know anyone here in TN state

xdamson:
some one, please helpppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp.

Please I need answers to these questions guys

1 : is it true that in most cases students visa applicant that have been petitioned for immigrant visa (but not yet current ) by their parents or family are denied visa ? In My case my mom just petitioned for me few months ago and it won't be current till 2024 or 2025 and I've just started my masters application.

2 : will applying to schools in the same state my mom lives be a problem for me at the interview ?

Some schools request for high school transcripts with WAEC Result.

Not only Nigeria that does it, the Asians do so too. Infact, the Asians see it as pride whenever their students apply for admission. That is why they get most of these scholarships.

Hi Oludare,

I need to know how to go about submission of my GA form.

i have searched the school website tru n tru but no tangible information

Hi bro,

have you received a decision now?

i am also going to TSU for Fall 2017.

otubujohn:
Please guys, over 2weeks, I have not received admission response from my department at Tennessee State University. Going for msc fall "17. Please what do I do

Guys please help!!!!



Good day house. I'm new on this platform and I must confess, it's been educating. A quick one please. I applied for Msc to study Public Affairs in NMHU in New Mexico and I got the admission. My i20 was sent in January 10th 2017 and registration was scheduled to end on the 24th of same month so I deferred till fall in August 2017. The question now is, I had initially been denied a b1b2 visa and my dad is currently a citizen of the US. He resides in Philly, which is why I didn't apply to any school there. Please hope this won't affect my procuring of the visa coz I'm at cross roads and really need advice. Thanks in anticipation for the responses.

I got your explanation now. Thanks. Before, schools using ask for ss course work with waec. Like you said I guess they are using this to prevent boosted course work from those notorious private sec schools.

Few months ago..lol..Don't worry, you case is not even close to a table. But since your mum is a permanent resident (guessing based on what you wrote), you would have to show really good home ties. You have a good job? Good grades? Applying to schools in the same state alone is a flag as well

I hope you were able to sort this out already? Wish you all the best
