sospunky: it will be very difficult to take care of 3 kids alone while studying . also based on their ages they cannt be left home alone and school scheduled can be hectic ...that been said i want to clarify one thing A child in F2 status is allowed to attend up to highschool/secondary school level . meaning if you choose for an F2 dependent child or children to attend public school and for free that is fine and legally allowed . i am sure about this as i have a couple of friends with kids |

Alfred2000: A fee you have to pay before you go for visa interview. All international students entering the US for studies must pay the fee. It's worth $210. 2 Likes |

Hi guys.. Good evening .. I have B.Eng Computer Engineering. I want to go for M.sc in Information Technology. But then the question I have to ask is that do you have to pay your turion before leaving Nigeria? I have litte savings and total inflow and outflow of 6m from sponsor per annum. I don't have TOEFL yet though and transcript Can I fly? Who can guide me?? Pls I need advice.. |

gokuu:Look, there are agents in the US as well. They also procure Nigerian visas for Americans and other foreign nationals. Sometimes, you don't have to insult someone's business whether right or wrong. But politely say a few words, he or she would understand a lot better. 3 Likes |

EzekielMab: if you are have little savings then best to take GRE ... Work hard and try to get a high score which hopefully get you full or partial scholarship 3 Likes |

EzekielMab: Bolded was a little funny ![]() Typically you don't pay tuition before you travel. A couple of schools have been noted to require tuition deposits from international students before arrival. Note though that it's important to have enough financial backup because you will spend. I don't want to read further meaning into that question. Get your transcript and plan to write TOEFL. if you dig deep though you will find a handful of schools that will exempt Nigeria from TOEFL. But it's better for you to write it. Nobody will guide you better than you can guide yourself. Use this thread and use Google. Best of luck. 1 Like |

Hey guys, Please I need to ask if its possible for a political science graduate to study computer science or any related technological course in masters given the fact that the person is a programmer who had done quite a number of projects in the web and artificial intelligence (machine learning) and has a very attractive portfolio. Please help |

tobishills12: you web programmers never cease to amaze me, couple of web UI's and you think you are full fledged software engineers. ![]() |
Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 12 by ecoleco: 9:50pm On Sep 02, 2017 |
tobishills12: Yes because you have done some work in IT (Web and AI). Prepare to have something for the VOs to convince them that your masters program is not your first time to switch to IT. Once big switches like this is spotted, the 'why the switch' question will definitely come. What tools do you use in your Machine Learning? |

LagosismyHome: I finished with a CGPA of 2.8 , does that matter ? |
Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 12 by gokuu(m): 11:17pm On Sep 02, 2017 |
EzekielMab: Okay, so I'll just jump in with some oversight here. In this 21st century, the tacit rule of any decent conversation is to NOT pose questions that could be answered by a google search in less than 0.0005 seconds. Instead of: "I finished with a CGPA of 2.8 , does that matter ?" What you wanna ask is: "I've done this, this and that - do you think these can make up for my GPA; how do I highlight my strengths?" I've found this thread very incisive especially because of the people who come here to share their experiences, opinions, and answer decent questions - even when they do not have to. They put in a lot of effort to address people concerns and worries; it only makes sense that we - as "I nquisitioners" - also put WELL THOUGHT OUT QUESTIONS on here so that we are not repelling. Maybe before we put questions up, we want to ask: "can this question be answered by google or bing?" Put up questions that are nuanced and situational, not just bland ones. 9 Likes |

hello everyone, please i need an experienced person whom processed his/her admission personally to clear this curiosity from my mind on satisfying the proof of financial statement required by most schools in the US during admission process for international students. can someone who has a closing balance of 2M which is not close to the required closing balance of $20,000 for community college and $41,000 for most university secure admission? |

gokuu: You're preaching to the choir. 98% of the folks here aren't interested in learning, other than using it as a means to immigrate. The real serious students already started classes this week... those students knew what cgpa score would give them the best chance at a US education and worked hard to achieve it. So don't be surprised at the frankly absurd questions asked here. It's not a stretch to think that someone with a cgpa of 2.8/5 isn't someone who is used to serious research. Most here are a product of the "handout" system of education in Nigerian universities. 7 Likes 2 Shares |

ecoleco:Thanks for your reply. What I really want to know is if I'll need to go for another visa interview after collecting the new i-20 since I'll be differing from Spring to fall semester. I really need your reply ASAP so I don't make a terrible mistake. Thanks. |

Owohfasa: Honestly, opening or closing balances have nothing to do with securing admission ![]() If you are thinking about bank statement to show during your visa interview for unfunded admission, then you will have to show something more substantial than 2M. 3 Likes |
