Hey! Scroll up and read Happyday's post about using LinkedIn. It works so great. The problem is most people after getting their visa are very busy so they may not respond to your question. But from my few years on this thread, I've not heard of anyone in that school. switcyndy: |

michael1385: This might be late but I gave The VO a similar answer some yrs ago to study Physics @ WIU, I told him I applied to 3 other schools and the response I got from WIU was the best Prof Boley took time to reply all my emails in a timely and friendly manner. UCH just opened a Medical Physics department(its been long can't rem the dept) and when my mom discussed with the HOD I was promised a job if I have a Masters degree in Physics (--- that pretty much answered couple of other questions) and the VO asked me few Physics questions about gravity, value of acc due to gravity which I sharply answered and he asked about my project defense which i explained and he told me to pick up my visa while I was explaining mind you I was tensed until he started asking physics questions which relaxed me and I think he noticed that which I believe was Gods favor I won't be surprised he VO's minor was Physics. Good luck |

omilaomila: As in, let me join. Food, food, food!!! Best advice. If you want to eat out, be prepared for too much questions. You can't just order a cup of coffee in peace, be ready to say if it's iced or cold, what size you want, if you need cream or sugar. Order for a steak, and they wanna know if you want it well done, medium or rare. You get a simple sandwich, and they're asking the type of dressing, or what type of cheese. I give up! Just give me the last one you mentioned, and let me eat in peace. 14 Likes 2 Shares |

Tunnyz: Meal plan made me and my 3 other Naija friends add weight ...... We used to behave like people just let out from the jungle. Since it more like buffet style , we used to say "make we chop our money complete ".....So plus the one we can eat and the one we cant eat will be on the tray with an attempt to eat it all (value for money) o Boy !!!.......After a semester or a year , once you see the waist line increase or you see the scale ,nobody will tell you to calm down . Only you will advise yourself 4 Likes 1 Share |

LagosismyHome: That thing makes so much sense. I mean, you pay like $15, enter, and you can eat pretty much anything you want!!! Are you kidding me! I went there last semester. It was in the afternoon, and the lady said something like that. I was like, 'wait, you know what?'; let me go home today, and come back tomorrow for a full day! That full day never come! 1 Like 1 Share |

Another big issue here is loneliness. Finally, you're here. Holywood and your 'yankee' friends have made you believe these people are as outgoing and friendly as Nigerians. Turns out you're in for a shock. People smile at you, engage in small talk, but that's it. Everyone has got their cross to bear. You can't blame them. You miss the happy atmosphere in Nigeria. You stay on calls to your family and babe(s) and boo(s) back home. Depends on how bad you are. You can't go knock on your neighbor's door, so you both can play PES. Or talk about the latest wack Davido track! It's raining, and your American friends don't get it when you say 'weather for two', or 'based on logistics'. You see a sea of white heads, and wonder why your skin color is different. You wonder why you weren't born here. You engage someone in a convo, tell them you're from Nigeria, and they ask 'so tell me, how's Africa like?'. Damn! You've always thought you were good looking, even handsome sef. But everyday, you see way hotter, cleaner chicks and dudes. You were always celebrated in your Nigerian University for your grades, work ethic, romantic pick-up lines or sexy legs. But here, nobody gives a flying hmm-hmm. You can't raise your hands, and ask questions the way your American peers are doing. Like you'll do in Naija, and feel like a don. You don't want to misyarn, look dumb. Or both. So, you keep shut. You're average in everything. Every damn thing. You graduated top of your class back in Naija, but here you're, struggling to keep up with term papers and homework. Worst part is, some of your classmates are not even putting in the effort. In fact, most of them. Suddenly, the phrase 'American citizen' suddenly makes sense to you. You now know there are as much types of visa as the letters in the English alphabet, and that your F1 is just at the low rung of the ladder. You don't get some benefits. You might never do. Just for one simple reason. You were never born here!! Classes, and TV, and employers keep reminding you of this every day. And then you remember Naija; home sweet home. You remember what your friends hail you for. Guys hitting on you, girls stealing glances at you, your book-smartness, your looks. And even your family. You just wanna go back home. But hold on! Your peeps are back home are "happy for you", you don't use crap data, you're 24/7 on the Internet, NEPA (or whatever) don't show their prowess every 5 mins. Heck, you don't even know who supplies the electricity around here. Maybe straight from Washington or it's local. And frankly, you don't care. The air here seems to smell different. Though you can't cuddle or make out in the cold weather, at least you have a safe bed you can sleep in. The sirens remind you of your relative safety. Then, you wonder if it's possible for you to have both worlds? Be with your family, and also get a grad degree in a sane climate like you have here. When shit gets this real, and they will, what do you do? Go online and watch more porn, come to Nairaland, and troll the pages? What would you do ![]() 48 Likes 5 Shares |

Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 11 by Hushee(m): 6:20pm On Jun 02, 2017 |
electronic: Not slightly Bro, the difference is much. Most of them will even do a direct conversion; for someone that has a GPA of 3/5, it could be calculated as (3/5)×4 which will give you 2.4/4. I actually got this from a grad coord.... So my advice is if you have a low gp, evaluate it and apply to schools that request for evaluation. |

Hi house its been awesome going through the pages of this thread am quite challenged and encouraged by the number of testimonies as well. I would graduate this year with a second class lower in biochemistry and also my sister in banking and finance would also graduate this year with a first class probably. Please we need help as regarding universities that offer full scholarships and the procedure as each school has it own modality. And also regarding the timing should i start application now or is it better i wait till service year. Please i need a complete break down and any useful information cos to be honest am a little confused by the process # pls help a novice |
