shayhune: Congrats bro. Wishing you all the best in your new journey. House, I'm wondering why would VO ask how you'll be paying for studies even tho they can see on their system (sevis ID) that one got full funding. Can anyone decipher why they still pop out that question? I believe/think they have access to see scholarship/funding once your sevis ID has been slotted into their computer during interview |

Yes, i have really learnT Alot from this thread and it encouraged me to do everything by myself without using any agent. I got my i20 and admission letter sent from the school to a friends address in newyork and he helped me to send it down here to Nigeria. I filled out my ds-160 and did all necessary things myself. Though my friend helped me to pay the sevis fee over there and I paid him the equivalent in Naira. Note: Age: 28 i finished high school 2005. Finished OND 2009 (civil. Engineering) BSC from KAMPALA INTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITY UGANDA. (Information Technology) 2016 Was admitted to the CC in Michigan (computer science ) I just want others to learn from this regardless of whatever age they are and also the Most important thing is to be PRAYERFUL AND BE PREPARED. At first i was denied at abuja and my Transcript goes thus. VO: good morning Me: good morning. VO: why are you going to the us Me: i am going to the US to study at ******cc so that i can have more technical expertise in my field which is going to help me after my course to be able to secure a good job back home here in Nigeria VO: what is your highest qualification Me: bsc in information technology from KIU uganda VO: (cuts in) why are you going for an associate degree since u have bsc already. Me: yes i am going for the degree because i really want to have more technical knowledge than what I have been thought. ( i knew i messed up there). VO: are u trying to tell me you were not taught any practical during your years at school. AM SORRY YOU ARE NOT QUALIFIED TO GET THIS VISA. hands over the blue paper and retured my things. I left, not so disappointed and the only thoughts in my head was what to do next. I left abuja the following morning back to lagos and reapplied 2 days after. Had to pay the visa fees again but my sevis payment was still valid and i could still use it. I filled the form myself again and didnt change anything. Because i dont want to lie about anything so that this doesnt affect my application. I booked an appointment for the following week in lagos 6:30 am. Got to the embassy around 5:30am and waited till the whole process started. This time around i was feeling more confident and not nervous like the first time. When i got in i was the fifth on queue but i got scared and prayed in my mind that I want to be interviewed by the person that would definitely approved my visa. So i had to excuse myself to use the toilet and joined the queue from behind because i believe i was still a little bit shaky so i needed more time. My transcript in lagos embassy goes thus. Vo: good morning (with all smiles on her face) Me: good morning Vo: pass me your passport and i20 and asked why are you going to this school. Me: i am going to *****cc because it is a school with a well structured curriculum which has a good student ratio and according to what i have heard about this school it is really a good school which definitely suits what i have been looking for. Vo: did u apply to other schools. Me: no i didnt Vo: why Me: this school was recommended to my mom by my uncle who has been in the us for over 10 years and more also 2 of his sons went to this school. Vo: where does your uncle lives now. Me: he lives in michigan but presently right now he is home here in nigeria. Vo: what about his sons. Where are they presently. Me: they are done with their prospective courses and they are back home, working in a good company and doing well. I still saw them 2 weeks ago and they reminded me of how good the school is. Vo: who is funding your trip and expenses Me: my mom. Vo: what does she do. Me: she is a retired principal laboratory scientist from one of the government hospital but now has her own pharmaceutical store she is managing. Vo: what have u been doing since u finished high school. Me: i have been working for my mom in her store and i also managed to get my bsc Vo: what will this course do for you on completing it. Me: its really going to help me gain more technical expertise in my field and more also the us is a big market where we have the best companies in the technical field like IBM, DELL, LINUX and also it is a place where all the best student in the whole world converges and share their knowledge with each other. So this is really going to help me have more international relations as well and i believe all this will really help me to get a good job back home here in nigeria. Vo: what courses would you be taking Me: java, c+, basic programming, linux Vo: cuts in. Am approving your visa. Pick it up at the circled location in the next 3 bussiness days. Do not forget. You will need your i20 at your point of entry. Me: thank you. Packed my things and left. Was not even interested in any other things she was saying anymore. Was just smiling while walking out. I was so happy, at least. No agent helped me. I just want others to learn that with a cc you can still get a visa even though the chances are very slim. But the main key point is just to be prayerful and let the Almighty God lead you. 19 Likes 2 Shares |

Rockymillo: Brotherman, as far as USA is concerned, you are stuck with 1989 as your date of birth. You can only hope your WAEC result is not requested for during your next interview and even if you manage to escape that, won't your school request to see your WAEC result? What date will you be filling on your school applications? |

Rockymillo: Well did you not show proof of financial at the school before your i20...although 51k is a lot for 4 years I think in your cases nobody has the answers .. you just have to prepare and try again |

The school is on the high side. What is the name of the school? Just reapply again and try to give the VO reasons why the school is worth ever penny. Rockymillo: |

LagosismyHome: He could have talked about the quality of education in the US and show proof of financial status. That could have earned you the visa! |

LagosismyHome: I did, he's not convinced that the school is worth spending so much on, it's Milwaukee school of engineering and was going for business administration , he said he knows about John hopkings, Harvard and co but why would anyone want to spend so much money on this particular school in this recession was is thought, am not applying with this school i20 anymore because they resumed already took Swosu i20 today but I couldn't answer the questions well I know I didn't answer well personally do you think it's okay to try again the third time? |

Rockymillo: Are you going for undergrad? How old are you? Your composure matters alot. To me age is not a barrier if you are still less than 30, you can get the visa for undergrad. I have seen many of that happened. Well, i will encourage you to go further once more. I am a living testimony. Its way back tho. I was denied thrice. Here i am. Pray to God and be prepared. 4 Likes |
Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 11 by PrinceDekunle: 3:29pm On May 15, 2017 |
Rockymillo: Yes I strongly advise to try again with the swosu and be well prepared since you know you didn't answer the questions well. If need be, you can PM me to do a mock interview with you and I can help you detect and correct where you need to work on. You have every chance of getting it the third time if you work on it |
