Oh my bad. Thank you so much. I clicked on the Basic. Information is power. Another question, can you please explain the meaning of the standard delivery which is $7 and the other international courier which is $67? Thanks as i await your response.

They charge $7 to deliver to an address within the US and $67 for addresses outside the US. Since you'll be applying to schools in the US, the $7 delivery applies to you.

See how this OND pour sand sand for my garri. Thank you boss. God bless you.

As for your final gpa after conversion, your 2.9/4.0 OND gpa will stay fairly the same since it is already on the 4-point scale. Your UG gpa of 3.91/5.0 will come out to be around 3.3/4.0. The average of 3.3/4.0 and 2.9/4.0 being 3.1/4.0 ,+ or - 0.5, final WES gpa.
+ or - 0.05

LMAO Who cares about coloured at the embassy? cheesy

Although I went there with coloured, but I saw a lot of black and white applicants and they never had any issue as long as all their papers are complete

Thank you.

I saw two options at which one can send transcript to WES. Either by Postal mail or By Courier, will i be the one to tell my school the one to use or i should just give them the two address and they will choose the one that is suitable for them. No vex say my wahala much boss.

Prospective grad students can access the spreadsheet. The link was posted in the last paragraph. That's the basis of the whole thing.

I guess it will be a welcome development sp far prospective student will have access to the information so as to help them.

What is true and possible if i may ask?

Do you mean its true and possible for a school/department to process results for courses that was not registered in a semester on the course form ? because i am yet to see such schools in my country and the whole world

I experienced a course that was registered but later didn't reflect on transcript at all.

Good day house. Please i need clarifications on this. I have a National Diploma (GP 2.90/4) Nigeria standard and a B.Sc (3.91/5). I gained admission to the university through DE. If i want to evaluate my transcript, is it both transcript i will send to WES?

There is a place i saw a Wes reference number required before i can ask my school to send my transcript to Wes. I found out i have to register before i can get. I registered but there is a place i was required to make a payment of $167. Does this mean i have to make the payment before i will be given the reference number?

Thank you all. I will be waiting to hear from you.

As soon as you make the payment, you will get a confirmation mail with the reference number which you give to your school before they send your documents.

This is completely, 100% wrong. You do NOT need color printouts of the DS-160 or any other materials. We have, in the past, seen touts use this forum to promote their services. Do NOT believe any of this nonsense.

Other things you do NOT need:

* Staples or fasteners of any kind (including paper clips, tacks, tape, etc)
* A particular order -- nothing needs to be "sorted"
* Multiple copies -- we only need one copy

I am certain I can think of other things, but this will do for now. If any of our staff turns you around because you have a colored DS-160, report it to another officer immediately and we will take care of it.

Please, while filling the DS 160 form, the sites keeps returning to the home page by itself asking me to input my ID all over again. I have not been able to move past the "travel" section, because it either tells me the session has expired (which is not up to 20 minutes), or tells me that there is an error and goes back to the first page. i don't know if any other person experienced these itches or it is my browser that has a fault. I need someone to kindly help me out on how to resolve this issue.

I need some help. I have been filling my DS160 form for about 2 days, and it is not proceeding beyond the work and education history. It keeps returning me to the home page after filling in all the information on that page. My question is: what browser is not capable? I use safari, chrome, opera browsers on laptop and tab. I saw the browser requirements on the homepage, but my internet explorer is not doing the job either.

Please help

Thank you so much for taking out time to provide such a detailed response. Your response has provided a great relief.....**deep sigh**

Yea, the exact expiration date is 18 Feb 2018. I plan to be out before 19 August '17. For passport booklet, they actually have booklets now in PH and also Abuja....saw someone who applied today was asked to come back tomorrow for d booklet collection.

Thanks again for this swift response.

Booklets now a bit available.

Those hoarding it like dollars are releasing it little by little grin grin grin

Hello House,

Please I need your advice. I plan to travel to Texas for my MS this coming Fall. My passport will expire by Feb 2018. I was at the Port Harcourt Immigration Office today with the hope of renewing the passport before applying for Visa. Unfortunately, I was told that renewal isn't possible since the expiration date is more than 6months from now. However, after explaining d reason for wanting to renew before d expiration date, the immigration officer said that only a reissue can be done, and that can be done only in Abuja Office. That it's a special case and as such, I'd have to pay at least 41k for the processing and also travel to Abuja for data capturing.

Now, if all these were to be done here in PH, I wouldn't really mind. But the challenge is on how to take days off work to travel to Abj coupled with d additional travelling expenses....fall application don suck my money finish cry. Please I'd like to know if I can travel with my old passport that will expire in Feb 2018 and renew it in US, because I don't know when I can possibly get a day or 2days off work to travel to Abj. This situation has created so many unanswered questions in my mind:

How easy is it to get passport renewed in US (Texas) and how much will it cost?

Will I have issue with my Visa interview consideration the expiration date on my current passport (Feb 18)?.....I hope to go for visa interview by June

Will there be any issue at POE?.....I intend to travel by July ending or beginning of Aug.

Please I need your advice and suggestion. Don't know what to do now.

cc: LagosIsMyHome, bigfrancis21, OjaP, imperiouxx, femi321, biikeys, slimmy2005 and every other contributor in this great forum....your usual pieces of advice will go a long way.

You don't need to stress yourself, You can renew when you get to US or if mistakenly you defer your admission after getting your visa, You will surely renew it..

What you can do is to click exit from the website page which is at the right top side, then close the tab and start afresh. i guess this occur on chrome

You can switch to mozilla firefox
