Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 12 by alexandersherif: 2:21pm On Nov 16, 2017 |
Eanionz: GLORY BE TO GOD. He is a faithful God. my Visa was approved on the 7th of November, 2017@ lagos Embassy, 6:30am Visa appointment . I appreciate the inestimable effort made by bigfrancis21 in reviewing my transcript before the interview V.O Good morning, smile ME Good morning sir, smile too V.O Can I have your passport ME Yes, here you go V.O And form em.... form I -20 ME: Yes, I quickly passed it
V.O Where are you going in the US ME WSU Dayton, Ohio, for my masters degree program in Electrical and Electrical Engineering with specialization in power systems. V.O Started typing for over 30 seconds V.O Why that school ME Because WSU is well known for its excellent research programs especially in Electrical and Electronic Engineering field. I will also have the opportunity to do my research work under prof. marian k. kazimierczuk whose present research interest in renewable energy tallies with my intended research topic. I have contacted him and he was very happy with my CV and GRE score.
V.O What type of renewable energy ME solar energy. you know Nigeria is the most populous Africa Country and blessed with sunlight in excess, yet Nigeria is posed with great challenge on how to fulfil its energy demand to her citizens due to lack of practical skills. That's why I'm going to WSU to gather the necessary practical skills to utilise the available solar potentials. My plan is to return to Nigeria upon successful completion of my graduate studies and embark on rural solar electrification in partnership with government like Enugu state rural electrification board, Anambra state rural electrification board etc and nongovernmental organisations like Alliance for rural development of Nigeria etc whereby solar modules will be installed for individuals in the communities at zero upfront cost , after which they will be charged for energy consumed monthly. By doing this, it will remove the initial installation cost factor that has hindered people in the communities from appreciating the prospects in off grid renewable energy supply.
V.O how often do people use solar energy in Nigeria ME Nigerians use solar Energy very well but popularly in cities but my target is in the rural areas. V.O Where do you work My dad's Company.......... an Electrical Engineering company ,as a field Engineer V.O You work in your father's business ME yes sir V.O Who is your sponsor ME My dad V.O he started typing for over one minute, stopped, circled my collection centre in the white paper and said congratulations, your visa has been approved.............. ME Thank you sir ALL GLORY TO MY FAITHFUL GOD! Thank you BIGFRANCIS21 and Nairaland family Just know everything about the course you want to study. All the best my people!!!
Congratulations God bless your new journey |

He's planning going again for december. Hes married now and also he has been saying he didnt have anyone in the USA but now he has found one of his relative that lives in USA. can he put married now in his application? can he also state that he has a relative in USA? is the school a red flag at the embassy? He's confused but i dont know anything about Aviation school. please Guruz in the house kindly help this folk so that he can allow me to have rest of mind. thank You Sounds like he's not married..plus found a relative ![shocked](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/shocked.gif) The friend needs to know he still has a chance of getting a visa provided he's been truthful so far. Adding false information will only complicate things for him. He needs to read through this thread. There have been few people here with similar profiles as his. |
