No. I started immediately because I know other people will be asking as well. I sent a mail to the Assistant Director copying finaid, one school gave me, the other said I should appeal. Am thinking of giving them a call later.

After the admission offer, did you wait at all before you start bombarding them with funding mail?

Sending you a pm

Guys please assist advice.

Good day house. 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 two years ago and same last year August. However, my dad just became 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.

Furthermore, how do need to say to convince them based on the fact that I have been denied twice? Although, my reason for applying last year was just to attend a seminar and as well see him.
Thanks in anticipation for the responses.

As you already know your previous denials would put more scrutiny on your application at the interview. You have been denied visiting, seminar and now you're going for student. You need to proof you have a genuine purpose of going to U.S and not to migrate, as you've tried many other options. Nothing is impossible but you have to convince the VO you're not just looking for a cheap escape route. Answer this questions so that we all can best understand your case.

Did you do any standardized test.
How do you get the school and how many schools
When did you finish your bs
What is your credential like
What's your home ties
Who is your sponsor?

LagosismyHome:


In the past yes it was allowed but it was changed maybe 5 years ago by CBN directive that all money paid out should be in naira if it in cash

If it paid in your dorm account yes you can still receive it in dollars

So No for now for cash payment

Thank you

Good day all, I will be graduating in few months time; i've been preparing for the necessary pre-graduate school exams since last year (not really intense though). However, i will take the exams 2 months after my last UG exam.
My current profile goes thus;

Bs : Economics and Statistics
cgpa: 4.1/5.0 (after 7 semesters, my final semester just commenced)
proposed degree: Phd [fully funded]
Experience: UG research assistant
proposed Area of specialty: Econometrics, Quantitative Economics
GRE: work in progress
TOEFL: work in progress
proposed schools;
UNIVERSITY of Texas, Dallas
Binghamton University, NY
University of Houston, Texas.

I came up with these schools after some thorough research. I would really love to know if these aforementioned schools suit my profile/field. Also, i would'nt mind if anyone on here could help recommend some schools too.
cc: gunther6 GboyegaD Joeluv.
Thanks.


Economics is one of the fields where it is especially hard for you as a Nigerian to get into ' a fully funded PhD program ' with just a BSc, the 4.1 is rather low, too low for any PhD program with real aspirations. But if you have a barrel of money (arigbabuwo) nothing should stop you from applying, but if you have rather limited resources and you are looking to squeeze maximum value or generate some serious 'consumer surplus' you should focus on awesome Masters program like Miami University, Ohio or some other awesome school, see how it goes for one or two semesters, see how it actually goes. PhD especially in Economics is not beans and as a Nigerian trained one you will come to find out as the Americans say 'you ain't all that'. Choose wisely and I hail all the baba's in the house.

That was why I came on this platform to seek advice from the experienced ones.

I'm about to take IELTS which I'm still studying for.
I got the school from a colleague of mine who's studying there already. I also applied to Temple University, TSU and University of Pennsylvania.

I got my B.sc in 2011 and I have been working since. Presently, I work with one of the leading banks in Nigeria as a CSE and have been in the sector for 3yrs now.

I got a 2.98/5.0 due to some issues I had.

Presently, I have 2 cars in Uber that is generating income for me and I got a land somewhere in Lagos. I still work with the bank.

My dad is my sponsor. He is supposed to pay the tuition fees and I take care of the remaining school bills(housing, health, miscellaneous). So yes, my dad will be the sponsor. He's based in the US as a citizen that is why I'm a bit worried about going for the interview.
