Enasdan: His salary doesn't matter much since he is going to study and not vacationing. If he feels that was the cause of his denial, if asked he should state his salary, possibly his savings so far, and include that the reason he is being sponsored is so that he can have greater opportunities for higher earnings upon his return to Nigeria. 3 Likes |

Babbie23:Exactly, we'd really benefit from this. We need someone who is in the US on an F1 visa to tell us how it is there. There are so many questions after the admission period we have unanswered. Is it the beginning rough? How are you managing to cope? Made new friends? How did you get a green card? What's accommodation like over there? How much do you need to survive per month (an estimate of cost of attendance)? How smooth or stressful are the registrations? How difficult is it for those who don't have families or friends in America? How easy is to come back to Nigeria during major holidays and go back to school in the US? Is it possible to travel to other countries while on an F1 visa? And so many others. It's just like when Nahum777 misplaced his bags in the airport, I am sure many of us learnt from that; or the two nairalanders who talked about being almost swindled by the black guy when they were figuring out how to proceed from the airport. I am sure people who have travelled since then have looked out for the black guy and his gang. It's the same way I have never been to Walter Carrington but I know the famous black woman ![]() I know it won't be easy doing this taking into consideration classes, assistantships and life in general, but it'd be nice if someone who has passed through this thread starts this. ![]() ![]() 16 Likes 1 Share |

Good day all. I finished with a second class lower, are there any us universities that will accept me for a Graduate program with this grade? If that is out of it, is applying for a second B.Sc. degree an option and if so, won't it be an issue during my visa interview? I'm 25y/o now btw if age will determine what kind of answer that'll be proffered. I'm open to all candid opinions. Thanks |
Re: General U.s.a (student) Visa Enquiries-part 14 by Spotlighte: 3:26pm On Aug 29, 2018 |
partytime16: You can apply for your graduate studies in the US depending on your exact GPA under the honour. If it's 2.5/5 for instance, you could grade it on the scale of 4.0 and search for schools who don't have a problem with that. I don't think you need to go for another Bachelor's. |

Bettymi: I am afraid that your visa might be rejected again. What justifiable reason will you give the visa officer for staying out of school since 2011? This question will definitely come unless by miracle To increase your chances, get a bachelor's degree here in Nigeria and then go for your Masters in US. Also be prepared to explain why your visa was rejected and why you are suddenly going for a student visa. 1 Like |

To all F1 visa hopefuls, here is my transcript and a little bit of background info/landing details. I had my visa interview on Aug 2nd 2018 I was on the queue and I noticed a particular v.o was denying everybody within a minute, I became apprehensive, my confidence started waning, mouth getting dried, from my calculations it appears the window that will open up for my interview will be with this woman! God No!! I screamed in my mind, I turned to the orderly and asked to be shown the restroom (evil grin), the man look me shake head then said I should hold on for my interview first, then go to ease myself. Ha! abi were leleyi ni? (for my mind o). As we were arguing na him alarm sound for a inner cubicle, NEXT!! Sharp! sharp!! I darted to the cubicle, as I came face to face with the African american middle aged v.o, she was all smiles, my bp started reducing small small. V.O: hi goodmorning (very bright smile) Me: good morning v.o: how was your night? (I begin think, really??) me: my night was fine, thank you v.o: passport and I20 me: handed it over v.o: you are Mr so so so me: Dr so so so actually v.o: oh sorry me: its OK (smiling) v.o: oh, u already have a b1 visa me: no, that is actually a renewal (from here confidence start soaring) v.o: just a min pls ( am sure she went to check my travel history) me: no problem v.o: how will you fund your program? me: personal savings and family support. v.o: may I see your bank statements Me: handed it over v.o: oh you have more than one sponsors me: yes v.o: I will need to verify this, if it checks out, you will have your visa (photocopied my 120) me: no problem. N.B All this happened within two minutes in the most cordial mood possible, no question about my school or course, I am a Dr. going for Mph at Texas A&M. I personally believe my past travel history both to the USA and Europe spoke well for me. I have never stayed up to two weeks outside Nigeria before. And my intended course aligned well with my background. One week after, my visa was approved. I collected my pp and booked ticket immediately, school was resuming in 3 days. left naija two days later, landed Texas just a day to resumption. It has been very busy here since. Texas A&M is a very big school, though not as much Africans as I anticipated. And my department is super nice, fed the whole class for two weeks (just lunch o) I will recommend this school to anyone. But I believe we should all have some money for our support on landing, I have no funding at all and things are expensive when u convert, but I made modest plans for my initial survival. I prepared my application for a whole year, and I kept very good travel history but people without travel history do get visas, and married people also got visas. Just be rational with your plans and expectations all the best my people. SUN HERE IS HOT O!!!!!! 36 Likes 1 Share |
