Hello everyone, thanks to all the gurus for the information, encouragement​ and even financial supports.
It saddens me cause I got to know about this thread this year, would have done better if I knew earlier, but God knows best.
Here's my profile
Cgpa: 4.1/5
Read: Bsc Urban and regional planning
Completed NYSC last year.
Currently doing a graduate trainee at a firm in my discipline.
About to take GRE and TOEFL exams.
I've done and still doing loads of research on what schools to apply.
I'll be applying for fall 2018, for Masters in Urban studies, with a concentration in Geographic information system (GIS), or better still Msc GIS
I've narrowed my​ options to the following schools
University of Nebraska
University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill
Cornel University
University of Minnesota
MIT
UCLA
University of California, Berkeley
Geogia institute of Technology
Pls I need advice from gurus in the house. Choice of schools to apply will be based on good student funding and also ranking
Pls I need mentors, have tried on several occasions to pm most of you ​but couldn't.
Pls I need​ all the help and assistance I can get. I'm a genuine student with​ good intentions and aspirations for​ myself, humanity and Nigeria in particular. God bless you all.

You need to go and snap a correct passport and scan it, by doing so it will upload perfectly

It is best to get the soft copy of the passport and upload it. That was i was advised to do and it worked perfectly

You GRE and TOEFL scores...especially GRE, would determine where you should apply to. Concentrate on those first. That being said, your list has mostly top schools. I would add maybe two average/safe schools to that.

First and foremost, you see all the schools I bolded, they are highly ranked schools, so applying to 6 top schools out of 7 applications is a NO NO. God forbid even with a GRE score of 325, you can get rejected from all 7 schools. All these top schools have applicants from India, China etc with close to perfect GRE score, Research experience and perfect GPA, so its highly competitive. In summary you need to go back and do your research well,spread your risk and plan to apply to 2 top schools, 2 moderate and 2 safe schools. You can start with this website www.msinus.com, http://www.msinus.com/content/how-select-universities-ms-us-534/ download the ebook on the site at the top right corner. The ebook gives you direct links to articles and web pages that will be very useful to you. Delete your whatapp number, you don't need to. When you have any question come back here and ask.

Good morning @all..
I really need help with my application to Robert Morris University in Pittsburgh..
I'm applying late because my uncle who's based in the US disappointed me..(He promised to help in applying but now giving excuses)...
I already apply to the school online, now I was told to send my documents which am going to do next week..
So, I really need the team here to explain what I should submit and what I shouldn't submit to the school..

Here's the screenshot of what the school is requesting and I dunno if the school will accept a copy of my high school transcript based of the 'Official transcript' that's in their application..

I'm applying for fall2017..
