Hello I applied to just one school and I was admitted. If I'm asked how many schools I applied to, should I say just one? And I didnt take any test, is that gonna be a problem? I'll appreciate comments, my interview is coming up soon. Thanks |

Deboadekoya93: Why did you wait till after the 3rd denial before coming out? Perhaps your first transcript placed here might have gotten you good feedback. Good luck in your endeavor? |

k199192: Most schools do include it. In fact yours is the first I have heard without it. You will see it under financial breakdown/source of funding your education: Fund from this school/Fund from family or sponsor. |

k199192: It happened to me before. I asked them to send me an updated I-20 stating my GA and to defer my admission because it was late for me to start the visa process. They did and my sevis number was the same. As for you, tell them to update your I-20 showing your GA in the section for funding. Sometimes, info regards funding don't get to IA before they print the I-20. 1 Like 1 Share |

Deboadekoya93: If you're a true follow of this thread you would know that you don't have any standardized tests. It seems like someone got the admission for you. For grad students, a standardized test is GRE/GMAT and for undergrads, it's SAT. Your TOEFL is only a language proficiency test..... simply a language test and don't qualify as a standardized test. When asked next time, just say you don't have it or they didn't require it for admission. But but, that can still lead to denial. So the best is to take a standardized test. 1 Like |

Good day wonderful people, I have been a silent follower of this great thread, and I must confess you guys are doing a great job. I have just received my Form i20 after having to pay for eShip only to discover that my Passport name was not entered on my Form i20 (the column was left blank). Other information were entered and correct. Would there be an issue presenting this i20 for visa interview and/or at the POE? Has anyone seen such before? Please I need your opinion/advice |

imperiouxx: Good day sir, I applied for 3 University and 2 gave me admission. The 2 skools that gave me admission required standardized tests but they gave me options of standardized test or work verification and a Case Study was sent to me online to answer and submit, which i did very well in the Case Study. My G.P.A is 4.2/5.0. I graduated 2011 and have been working since 2013. Will my not taking a standardized test be an issue? Ur response will be highly appreciated. My interview is next month. |

imperiouxx:now I am confused ... are you trying to say TOEFL isn't a standardized test ??

scaezar: Your case is quite interesting. I think you should highlight your art passion. Take a folio of your productions with you to the interview. Talk about what you want to achieve with your art in a realistic way. The media you want to use and how you'll make a living with it. Good luck and all the best. |

aithusa:The VO is actually right, there are small and big schools. Don't deceive yourself. A simple google search would have reviewed that to you. Park has a total enrollment of 911 students for post graduate as at fall 2015, that's even the number of students in 2 departments combined in some schools. So madam/sir the VO was right 2 Likes |

Damilare5882: Ok. From the screenshot, a standardized test for grads is clear. But the screenshot didn't include SAT as standardized test for undergrads. Also it's only for California State University applicants i.e CSU classification, so it's not applicable to other schools. If you're asked for a standardized test, show them your SAT, GRE or GMAT depending on which category you fall. |

imperiouxx:how about TOEFL .. should I just keep it ?? And just say No if I am asked if I wrote any standardized test ? I'm going for a graduate degree in GIS at eastern Illinois university |
Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 12 by imperiouxx(m): 4:05pm On Nov 25, 2017 |
Damilare5882: No problem in showing it. The VO knows what he/she wants to see. But if they're asking for your ST and you're only showing TOEFL, you know you still have a long way to go. |
Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 12 by Damilare5882(m): 4:10pm On Nov 25, 2017 |
imperiouxx:My question is If I am asked like "did you write any standardized test ? "....... can I answer like "No" and say but I wrote TOEFL ??.... and then show the Vo ....... Just kindly put me through the best way to answer that with my TOEFL ... thanks |
Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 12 by imperiouxx(m): 4:13pm On Nov 25, 2017 |
Damilare5882: For this last part of your comment, you can show the TOEFL but it will sound dumb because your TOEFL can never replace your GRE/GMAT as a grad student. Check previous transcripts of those that didn't use it for admission and didn't have it for the interview. That will give you an idea on how to defend yourself. |
Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 12 by Damilare5882(m): 4:15pm On Nov 25, 2017 |
imperiouxx:You personally should suggest the best way you will answer this assuming you were in this kinda situation ... thanks . . . .The point is , the school is offering two types of GIS ... one is MBA GIS and the other is PSM ( professional science masters)GIS and I applied for PSM in GIS which doesn't require GRE but only Toefl and it was even eventually waived .... so i can't get admitted with only Toefl if I applied for MBA In Gis .. because it requires GRE .... so in this kinda situation... if I am asked if I wrote any ST .... is it advisable to say yes and present my Toefl ?? 1 Like |

Deboadekoya93: Hummm IF this is the only test you wrote then to show a score of 80 is very low.... one VO might let it pass another might see it as not competitive enough hence why it better to be higher than lower |
